In a double-blind clinical trial, participants lost on average 14.9% of their body weight, which was about 12% more than the control group. The amount of weight you lose is determined by your initial weight, and your body’s response to the treatment, and is best accelerated with proper diet and exercise.
Our weight loss injections are not covered by insurance.
Once you’ve reached your target weight or are no longer seeing significant weight loss with regular injections, your focus should shift to weight maintenance. There is no chemical change when stopping treatment that will promote weight gain, but it’s always possible for weight to fluctuate following any weight loss treatment, diet, or weight loss regimen.
Speak with our team to explore maintenance options, and understand how to keep the weight off once your treatment concludes.
