What is Medical Weight Loss?

Medical weight loss at Femme Aesthetics combines FDA-approved GLP-1 receptor agonist medications — including semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic/Wegovy) and tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Mounjaro/Zepbound) — with personalized clinical guidance to help patients achieve sustainable weight loss.

These medications work by mimicking natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar, helping you feel fuller longer and reducing cravings. Our medical providers supervise every step of your weight loss journey, from initial evaluation and lab work through dosage adjustments and ongoing support.

Your Visit

What to Expect

  1. Before Treatment

    Consultation & Evaluation

    Your weight loss journey begins with a comprehensive initial consultation. Our clinical team will conduct a thorough health assessment to determine if you are a candidate for medical weight loss.

    • Complete health assessment and review of medical history
    • Lab work and blood panel to evaluate metabolic health
    • BMI evaluation and body composition analysis
    • Discussion of your weight loss goals and expectations
    • Review of current medications and potential interactions
  2. During Treatment

    Medication & Dose Escalation

    If approved, you begin with a low dose of semaglutide or tirzepatide, injected subcutaneously once weekly. The dosage is gradually increased over several weeks to minimize side effects and optimize results. During your first visit, we teach you how to self-administer the injection at home comfortably and safely.

  3. After Treatment

    Ongoing Support & Results

    Regular follow-up appointments ensure your progress is on track and allow our medical providers to adjust your care as needed. Most patients begin seeing results within 4 to 8 weeks.

    • Regular weigh-ins and progress assessments
    • Dosage adjustments based on response and tolerance
    • Side effect monitoring and management
    • Lifestyle and nutritional guidance to complement medication
    • Program continues as long as medically appropriate with ongoing clinical guidance

Possible Side Effects

The most common side effects of semaglutide and tirzepatide include nausea (especially during dose escalation), vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and stomach pain. These symptoms are typically mild and tend to diminish as the body adjusts to the medication. Serious but rare side effects include pancreatitis and gallbladder problems. Our clinical team monitors you closely throughout the program and adjusts dosing to minimize discomfort.

★★★★★

I had been struggling with my weight for years and nothing seemed to stick. After starting the semaglutide program at Femme Aesthetics, I lost 28 pounds in the first three months. The team was supportive and made the whole process feel manageable.

Maria S. Google Review

★★★★★

The biggest change for me has been my cravings. I used to snack constantly, especially at night. Since starting tirzepatide, I feel satisfied after meals and the urge to overeat is just gone. It has been a game-changer.

Jennifer L. Google Review

★★★★★

I appreciate how thorough the clinical team is. They did full lab work before starting, check in with me regularly, and adjusted my dose when I had some nausea early on. I feel like I am in good hands and the results speak for themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every question we’ve been asked

What is semaglutide/tirzepatide?

Semaglutide and tirzepatide are FDA-approved GLP-1 receptor agonist medications used for weight management. Semaglutide is the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy, while tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro and Zepbound. They work by mimicking natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar, helping you feel fuller longer and reducing cravings.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

Weight loss varies by individual depending on factors like starting weight, adherence to the program, diet, and activity level. Clinical trials have shown that patients using semaglutide lost an average of 15% of their body weight, while tirzepatide patients lost up to 22.5% in some studies. Our medical providers will set realistic expectations during your consultation based on your personal health profile.

Are there side effects?

The most common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and stomach pain. These are typically mild and tend to diminish as your body adjusts to the medication, especially during the dose escalation phase. Serious but rare side effects include pancreatitis and gallbladder problems. Our clinical team monitors you closely throughout the program to manage any symptoms.

How long do I need to take the medication?

The duration of treatment varies for each patient. Medical weight loss is typically an ongoing program, and many patients remain on the medication for several months to over a year. Our medical providers will evaluate your progress at regular follow-ups and determine the appropriate treatment timeline based on your goals, health, and response to the medication.

Do I need to follow a specific diet?

While no rigid diet is required, our clinical team provides lifestyle guidance to complement your medication. A balanced, nutrient-rich diet and regular physical activity will enhance your results and support long-term weight management. We work with you to develop sustainable habits that fit your lifestyle.

Is medical weight loss covered by insurance?

Coverage varies by insurance provider and plan. Many insurance plans do not cover GLP-1 medications when prescribed for weight loss specifically. During your consultation, our team can discuss pricing, available payment options, and help you understand your financial options for the program.
