Semaglutide at Apex Skin Aesthetics
What Is it?
Semaglutide weight loss utilizes a prescription medication that mimics the natural hormone in your body, GLP-1, which plays a crucial role in regulating appetite, blood sugar, and metabolism. GLP-1 helps signal to your brain when you’re full and slows gastric emptying, which means food stays in your stomach longer, helping you feel fuller for longer periods.
Semaglutide effectively helps curb hunger, leading to reduced calorie intake and promoting weight loss. This treatment at Apex Skin Aesthetics provides a medically supported and tailored treatment plan, guided by professional care.
The Benefits
Who the Treatment is NOT Good for:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals.
- People with a history (or family history) of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2.
- Individuals with a history of gastrointestinal issues that might be aggravated by the treatment.
- Those who are under 18 years old (Semaglutide is generally prescribed for adults).

Enhancement
At Apex Skin Aesthetics, many clients who start their journey with Semaglutide treatments are motivated to take their transformation even further.
We offer customized packages tailored to your specific wellness goals, which can enhance your weight loss results.
Muscle Building with EmSculpt NEO®
This innovative treatment goes beyond fat reduction by simultaneously building muscle and sculpting the body, delivering visible results that diet and exercise alone cannot achieve.
Facial Rejuvenation with Emface®
By combining radiofrequency and HIFES technology, Emface® lifts and tightens facial skin while also toning the muscles underneath, resulting in a more youthful and revitalized appearance.
Facial Volume Balancing with Fillers
Customized dermal fillers restore lost volume and smooth out wrinkles, providing immediate results in facial contouring and skin revitalization for a balanced and rejuvenated look.
What to Expect
1
Initial Consultation
You’ll meet with one of our experienced providers for a thorough evaluation of your health history, lifestyle, and weight loss goals.
We’ll also discuss how Semaglutide works, potential side effects, and how the treatment fits into your overall wellness plan.
2
Bloodwork
Bloodwork is included in your treatment plan at no extra cost, conducted by a licensed medical professional during your consultation. It is a fasting test, so you’ll need to refrain from eating or drinking that day. Results are processed at a certified lab and reviewed by your Apex Skin Aesthetics provider.
No prescriptions or additional visits required.
3
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on the consultation, a customized Semaglutide treatment plan will be created for you. This plan may include dietary and exercise recommendations to maximize your results.
4
Administration of Weight Loss Injection
Semaglutide is injected once weekly. This can be done in the comfort of our office or, depending on your preferences, instructions may be provided for home self-administration.
5
Ongoing Monitoring
Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to track your progress, assess any side effects, and adjust the dosage as necessary.
Important Note
The injection itself is minimally painful, and most patients experience only mild gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea or constipation, which typically subside as the body adapts.
Recovery & Results
Semaglutide is an outpatient treatment, meaning there is no need for downtime or recovery. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately following their injection. You may experience mild side effects like nausea or bloating, but these symptoms usually resolve over time.
You can expect gradual, sustained weight loss over several weeks or months, with the full benefits becoming noticeable around 3-6 months into treatment. The key to lasting results is the combination of Semaglutide with a healthy lifestyle, which our providers will support you in developing.
