GLP-1's are weekly injections that activates the GIP and/or GLP-1 receptors in the body. These receptors regulate appetite, insulin, and glucagon levels as well as satiety and gastric emptying. GLP-1 injections are given over a 16-20 week time period and the dose of the medication is titrated up as you go. GLP-1 medications are a weight-loss alternative and patients should expect to be committed for at least 3 months. GLP-1 patients can expect to lose anywhere from 12-22% of body weight.

Delayed gastric emptying to feel full longer
Suppress hunger signals in the brain

Hormonal imbalance can occur during any stage of life and has a huge impact on weight management. The most common treatment for hormonal weight gain is done by balancing your hormones with hormone replacement therapy. Here at Aesthetica we offer our patients BioTE hormone pellet therapy. BioTE pellets are naturally derived and they resemble the hormones naturally produced in our own bodies. Call Aesthetica today to schedule your BioTE consultation with one of our Nurse Practitioners.
