Struggling to lose weight despite diet and exercise? You’re not alone – and the solution may be simpler than you think. Semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic® and Wegovy®, has transformed medically supervised weight loss, delivering results that were once only possible through surgery.
At AestheteMed in Hallandale Beach, FL, we offer a personalized Semaglutide & Tirzepatide weight loss program supervised by our medical team. Whether you’re in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura, or Hollywood – our clinic is just minutes away.
|
📊 Clinical fact: Participants in the STEP trials lost an average of 15-17% of their body weight over 68 weeks on Semaglutide – more than any previous non-surgical weight loss medication. |
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist – a class of medication that mimics a hormone your body naturally produces after eating. It works through three main mechanisms:
Originally developed for Type 2 diabetes (Ozempic®), Semaglutide was later FDA-approved specifically for chronic weight management under the brand name Wegovy® in 2021 — making it the most significant weight loss drug approval in nearly a decade.
At AestheteMed, we offer both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide – our medical team will help you choose the right option based on your health profile and goals.

| Dosing | Weekly injection | Weekly injection |
| Best for | First-line GLP-1 therapy | Stronger results needed |
Our weight loss program is fully medically supervised – not a mail-order prescription service. Here’s what to expect:
Our medical team reviews your health history, current medications, BMI, metabolic markers, and weight loss goals. We determine if Semaglutide or Tirzepatide is the right fit – and if any lab work is needed before starting.
We start with a low dose and titrate gradually over weeks — this minimizes side effects (especially nausea) and ensures your body adapts comfortably. Most patients reach their maintenance dose by weeks 12–16.
Injections are administered weekly – either at our clinic or self-administered at home with our guidance. We monitor your progress, adjust dosing as needed, and provide ongoing support throughout the program.
Many patients combine Semaglutide with Endospheres body contouring, IV therapy for metabolism support, or NAD+ infusions to maximize results and maintain energy levels during weight loss.

Semaglutide is FDA-approved for adults with a BMI ≥ 30, or BMI ≥ 27 with a weight-related condition. See our full Semaglutide program page for eligibility details. Our team will screen for contraindications at your consultation.
It is NOT recommended for patients with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
Results vary based on starting weight, adherence, diet, and activity level. Based on clinical trials and our patient outcomes:

💡 Tip: Patients who combine Semaglutide with minor dietary adjustments and light activity (walking 30 min/day) consistently outperform those relying on the medication alone. |
Semaglutide is FDA-approved and extensively studied. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal and typically temporary:
These side effects are significantly reduced with our gradual dose titration protocol. Serious side effects are rare and are carefully screened for at your initial consultation.
❓ How long does it take to see results with Semaglutide?
Most patients notice reduced appetite within the first 1-2 weeks. Visible weight loss typically begins within 4-8 weeks. Maximum results are seen over 6–12 months of consistent treatment.
❓ Do I need a prescription for Semaglutide?
Yes – Semaglutide is a prescription medication. Our licensed medical team evaluates your suitability and issues a prescription as part of your personalized program.
❓ Can I stop Semaglutide once I reach my goal weight?
You can – however, studies show that most patients regain some weight after stopping. Our team will discuss transition strategies, including dose reduction and maintenance plans, to help you sustain results long-term.
❓ Is Semaglutide covered by insurance?
Coverage varies. Wegovy® for weight loss has limited coverage on many plans. We’ll help you understand your options and provide documentation if needed for reimbursement.
❓ How is AestheteMed’s program different from online Semaglutide services?
Unlike telehealth-only services, we provide in-person medical supervision, body composition tracking, complementary treatments, and hands-on support – resulting in better outcomes and safer weight loss.
