Semaglutide is a 31-amino acid peptide, structurally similar to human GLP-1, with key modifications that enhance its stability and efficacy. It's a GLP-1 receptor agonist used to treat type 2 diabetes and for weight management. By activating the GLP-1 receptors, semaglutide provides an FDA-approved means of controlling weight and improving metabolic health.

Semaglutide injections activate key physiological processes that support effective weight management in the following ways:

Increased Insulin Secretion: Semaglutide enhances insulin release after meals, helping to lower blood sugar levels and maintain better glucose control throughout the day.
Reduced Glucagon Secretion: It decreases glucagon production, limiting unnecessary glucose release from the liver and supporting stable blood sugar levels.
Delayed Gastric Emptying: By slowing the rate at which food leaves the stomach, semaglutide promotes prolonged feelings of fullness and helps reduce overall calorie intake.
Appetite Suppression: Semaglutide significantly reduces appetite, making it easier to stick to dietary goals and manage cravings, which supports sustained weight loss.

Our semaglutide home weight loss program offers several advantages that can guide you toward a healthier lifestyle:

Effective Weight Loss: Clinical trials have shown that patients using semaglutide lost an average of 10-12% of their body weight over time. Most participants achieved substantial results, often sustaining their weight loss long-term, making it an appropriate solution for those serious about managing their weight concerns.

Improved Metabolic Health: Proper use of GLP-1 medications like semaglutide can result in significant weight loss which leads to enhanced cardiovascular health as well as improved blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

Enhanced Quality of Life: Achieving your desired weight positively impacts energy levels, self-esteem, and life satisfaction. Users often experience improvements in daily activities and greater confidence in social situations.

The semaglutide home weight loss program is suitable for adults aged 18 or older who suffer from higher than recommended BMI or issues with being overweight. This medication is highly effective for people who cannot shed their weight using common weight reduction measures. Our all-inclusive framework helps you achieve your ideal weight goals effectively and sustainably providing the proper support and resources needed.

Semaglutide is generally safe and effective when prescribed and used appropriately. Like most medications, it may cause side effects, particularly during the initial phase of treatment. The most commonly reported side effects include nausea, constipation, and diarrhea.

Semaglutide is not recommended for individuals who:

Have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma
Have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2)
Are under the age of 13
Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to conceive
Have a history of unexplained pancreatitis or gallbladder disease

Your provider at Plush Contours will review your medical history thoroughly and monitor your response to treatment to ensure your safety and comfort throughout your weight loss journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are injectable weight-loss medications designed to help individuals manage their weight loss journey. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, while Tirzepatide is a dual-action medication that activates both GLP-1 and GIP (gastric inhibitory polypeptide) receptors.

Semaglutide:

Mechanism: It mimics the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which increases insulin release, decreases glucagon release, slows gastric emptying, and promotes feelings of fullness.
Uses: Type 2 diabetes, weight management, and reducing the risk of cardiovascular events in people with type 2 diabetes and heart disease, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Tirzepatide:

Mechanism: It's a dual agonist that mimics both GLP-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). This dual action is believed to enhance the effects of GLP-1, leading to potentially greater blood sugar control and weight loss.
Uses: Type 2 diabetes, weight management.

Proper use of GLP-1 weight loss medications poses minimal risk for most patients. GLP-1 weight loss medications have undergone extensive clinical studies, indicating their efficacy and safety. During your health screening appointment, our team will evaluate your health to ensure that the administration of GLP-1 weight loss medications is safe for your specific condition.

Those with a history of medulary thyroid cancer, Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2), under age 18, pregnant, breastfeeding, attempting to conceive, or those with unexplained a history of pancreatitis or gallbladder disease should refrain from using Tirzepatide.

Like all medications, GLP-1 weight loss medications may cause side effects. Common side effects include nausea, constipation, and diarrhea, especially during the early weeks of treatment. Our treatment team will closely monitor your progress and address any concerns regarding adverse effects. Your comfort and safety are our primary concerns.

While every patient’s weight loss journey is unique, studies have shown that individuals using GLP-1 medication for weight loss can lose between 5-20% of their total body weight. This range varies based on individual factors, including adherence to the treatment plan, lifestyle changes, and overall health. Our team at Plush Contours is here to support you and help you achieve your weight loss goals effectively.

It’s important to discuss these contraindications with your Plush Contours provider.

Semaglutide:

Contraindications:

Semaglutide is contraindicated if you or your family have a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Syndrome Type 2 (MEN 2), due to potential risks of thyroid C-cell tumors seen in animal studies, though not definitively proven in humans.
Avoid Semaglutide if you have a known allergy to it or its ingredients.
It is not used for treating diabetic ketoacidosis.

Conditions Requiring Caution and Close Medical Supervision:

Use caution if you have a history of pancreatitis, as acute pancreatitis has been reported with Semaglutide.
Severe kidney or liver disease requires caution and potentially strict medical supervision due to how Semaglutide is processed by the body.
Severe gastrointestinal disorders, such as gastroparesis, may worsen with Semaglutide due to potential side effects like nausea and vomiting.
Semaglutide has been associated with worsening diabetic retinopathy in some individuals.
A history of gallbladder disease may increase the risk of gallstones and inflammation, especially with rapid weight loss.
Combining Semaglutide with insulin or sulfonylureas increases the risk of hypoglycemia.
Semaglutide is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and it's advised to stop usage at least 2 months before planning pregnancy.

Tirzepatide:

Absolute Contraindications:

Personal or Family History of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC): Tirzepatide may increase the risk of thyroid tumors, including MTC. Therefore, it is strongly advised against using this medication if you or a family member have a history of MTC.
Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2): This genetic condition increases the risk of thyroid cancer. Tirzepatide is not recommended for individuals with MEN 2 due to the potential for serious complications.
Severe Allergic Reactions: If you have experienced a severe allergic reaction to tirzepatide or any of its components, you should not use this medication.
Type 1 Diabetes: Tirzepatide is not approved for the treatment of type 1 diabetes and could be harmful.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: The effects of tirzepatide on pregnant and breastfeeding women are not fully understood, and it's best to avoid its use during these periods unless advised by a healthcare provider.

Conditions Requiring Caution or Consideration:

Severe Gastrointestinal Disorders: Tirzepatide can cause gastrointestinal side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, which could worsen severe pre-existing gastrointestinal conditions.
Pancreatitis (history of): If you have a history of pancreatitis, your healthcare provider will assess if tirzepatide is appropriate for you, as it may increase the risk of this condition.
Kidney Disease: Tirzepatide may require dose adjustments or may not be suitable if you have kidney disease due to its impact on fluid balance and potential for dehydration.
Diabetic Retinopathy (history of): If you have diabetic retinopathy, your doctor will likely monitor your vision closely while you are using tirzepatide.
Planned Surgery: If you have surgery scheduled, inform your healthcare provider about your use of tirzepatide, as it may affect recovery.

Important Considerations:

Other Medications: Tirzepatide can interact with various medications, including insulin, sulfonylureas, oral contraceptives, blood thinners, and other GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists. It's crucial to inform your doctor about all medications you are taking.
Age: While the safety and effectiveness of tirzepatide in individuals under 18 and over 75 haven't been extensively documented, it may be administered under strict medical supervision in certain circumstances.
