At Semaglutide Portland, we are dedicated to guiding you on your journey to optimal health. In our commitment to offering cutting-edge therapies, we proudly introduce Semaglutide—a game changer in the world of medical weight loss.
Studies indicate that 70% of Americans are overweight, with 31% falling into the category of obesity.
Additionally, obesity is linked to various adverse health effects, including reduced life expectancy, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, stroke, respiratory problems, cancer, fatty liver disease, arthritis, gastrointestinal issues, mental health problems, and metabolic syndrome.
Semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy) act as GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide) receptor agonists.
Semaglutide is a class of medications used for medical weight loss as well as various metabolic disorders such as metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, prediabetes, and type II diabetes.
Administering semaglutide injections once a week may result in significant weight loss and effective blood sugar control within just one month.
Overweight, Obesity, High BMI
Through our advanced medical weight loss program, you may effectively reduce body weight, body fat, and BMI. You may also experience significant improvement in inflammation and decreased risk of serious conditions like cardiovascular disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Excess Belly and Visceral Fat
Excess belly and visceral fat pose significant health risks, including heart disease, liver disease, and diabetes. Semaglutide has shown remarkable effectiveness in reducing excess belly fat.
Metabolic Syndrome
Metabolic syndrome, which increases the risk of premature death, affects a significant portion of the US population. Through targeted interventions, we may help combat metabolic syndrome and its associated risks.
Fatty Liver Disease
Fatty liver disease, often linked to obesity and type II diabetes, may be reversed or prevented with the effective treatment of semaglutide, safeguarding liver function and overall health.
High Blood Pressure
Persistent high blood pressure is a dangerous condition associated with increased risks of heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. Clinical trials have demonstrated that semaglutide may effectively lower high blood pressure.
Heart Disease and High Cholesterol
In the realm of heart disease and high cholesterol, semaglutide has been associated with reduced risks of major cardiac events, offering significant benefits to patients with obesity and cardiovascular disease.
Insulin Resistance and Pre-diabetes
Insulin resistance and pre-diabetes may lead to serious health complications, but our comprehensive approach combining semaglutide with health and nutritional coaching may reverses these conditions.
At Semaglutide Portland, we offer a personalized journey towards weight optimization through our Injectable Medication Program. This program is designed to help you achieve your health and wellness goals while promoting sustainable lifestyle changes resulting in long-term results.
Initial appointment includes a comprehensive review of your health history, physical exam, weight measurement, and in-office lab tests to establish baseline health and eligibility for medical weight loss. It may also include your first dose of semaglutide. We are available to collaborate with your other healthcare providers to ensure coordinated care.
Gradual dose calibration tailored to your needs, with monthly adjustments to find the maximum tolerable dose and minimize side effects.
Typically 12 weeks to start, with potential for extension based on individual needs. We provide support to maintain improvements post-treatment.
Potential for significant weight loss, averaging 15-20% of initial body weight, supported by medication and healthy habit reinforcement. Results vary based on program duration and individual needs.
While injectable medications are key, sustainable results hinge on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Our certified health and nutrition coach offers personalized consultations to maximize benefits and ensure long-term success through diet and exercise.
We do not accept insulin-dependent diabetic patients or those with significant medical issues at this time. We provide a superbill for insurance reimbursement purposes, but we do not directly bill insurance.
