About This Treatment

What is semaglutide and how does it cause weight loss?

Reviewed by our board-certified anti-aging specialists. Medically supervised since 2006.

Semaglutide (brand names Ozempic® and Wegovy®) is an FDA-approved GLP-1 receptor agonist that directly reduces appetite, slows gastric emptying, and improves insulin sensitivity.

Unlike older weight loss medications that worked through stimulants or willpower, semaglutide works at the neurological level, activating GLP-1 receptors in the brain that regulate hunger and satiety. Patients consistently report significant reduction in appetite, reduced food "noise," and feeling full faster. In the STEP clinical trial, patients lost an average of 15% of body weight over 68 weeks. At Florida Aesthetics and Wellness, all semaglutide programs are medically supervised, with regular check-ins to monitor progress and adjust dosing.

What does semaglutide treat?

  • Overweight (BMI ≥27 with weight-related condition)
  • Obesity (BMI ≥30)
  • Insulin resistance and pre-diabetes
  • Metabolic syndrome
  • Weight regain after previous weight loss
  • Diet-resistant weight

Convenient to All of Tampa Bay

Semaglutide a short drive from Tampa

Our office at 1767 S. Kings Ave. in Brandon is about a 20-minute drive from downtown and South Tampa via the Selmon Expressway and I-75, and closer still for patients in Riverview, Valrico, and Seffner. Free, easy parking, and no downtown traffic.

Tampa patients make the trip because this is a real medical program, not a mail-order script. We take a baseline, prescribe pharmacy-sourced semaglutide, titrate your dose safely, and follow up in person so the results hold.

Common Questions

Semaglutide Weight Loss, Frequently Asked Questions

Clinical trials (STEP 1–5) show average weight loss of 15% of body weight over 68 weeks, with some patients losing 20%+ when combined with lifestyle modifications. Individual results vary based on starting weight, adherence, diet, and activity level.
The most common side effects are GI-related: nausea, constipation, and reduced appetite. These typically improve after the first 4–8 weeks and are minimized by slow dose titration. Rare but serious side effects include pancreatitis and gallbladder issues, your provider screens for these risks before prescribing.
Weight regain typically occurs after stopping GLP-1 medications. Most patients continue treatment indefinitely or transition to a maintenance strategy. We work with you on a long-term plan.
Yes, semaglutide is the active ingredient in both Ozempic® (approved for type 2 diabetes) and Wegovy® (approved for weight management). The doses differ. At Florida Aesthetics and Wellness, we prescribe the weight management protocol.
Yes, semaglutide pairs well with B12/MIC injections (for energy and metabolism), body composition analysis (to track fat vs. muscle loss), and CoolSculpting (for stubborn fat remaining after weight loss).
