Medical Weight Management & GLP-1 Therapy

Medical weight management is more than medication — it’s a comprehensive, physician-guided approach to achieving sustainable weight loss while supporting metabolic health, hormones, and overall well-being.

At UAesthetics Wellness, GLP-1 therapy is prescribed and monitored by experienced physicians who prioritize safety, education, and long-term success, not quick fixes.

Understanding GLP-1 Therapy

GLP-1 medications (such as semaglutide and tirzepatide) work by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate:

  • Appetite and satiety
  • Blood sugar control
  • Insulin response
  • Cravings and portion size

When used appropriately under medical supervision, GLP-1 therapy can support meaningful, sustainable weight loss.

Why Physician-Led GLP-1 Care Matters

GLP-1 medications are powerful tools — and require medical expertise.

U Aesthetics Wellness offers:

  • Comprehensive medical evaluations
  • Individualized dosing and titration
  • Side-effect monitoring and management
  • Nutrition and lifestyle integration
  • Transition and maintenance planning

We treat the patient, not just the scale.
