What is semaglutide?

Semaglutide has become a cornerstone treatment at MyBodyMD. This innovative drug, originally created as a type 2 diabetes treatment, has shown impressive results in helping individuals achieve and maintain significant weight loss. By mimicking the action of an appetite-regulating hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), semaglutide effectively reduces hunger, leads to lower calorie intake, and supports sustainable weight management strategies. MyBodyMD embraces the potential of semaglutide to transform lives, offering a beacon of hope for those struggling to lose weight through traditional methods alone.

What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a medication that marks a significant advancement in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. It operates by targeting not one, but two key hormones involved in glucose regulation and appetite control: GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). This dual-action approach helps improve blood sugar levels, promotes weight loss, and may reduce appetite, offering a comprehensive solution for managing these complex conditions. With its potential to address both diabetes and weight management in a single treatment, tirzepatide represents a promising development in medical science, providing hope for patients seeking effective management options.

How Does The Skinny Shot Work?

Semaglutide and tirzepatide injections were originally created as treatment for people with Type 2 diabetes. Skinny Shots thus work by helping your body regulate its appetite and feel satiated. A result of this regulation is a significant change in losing unwanted fat. These injections should be paired with a balanced diet to help you feel full and satisfied without dropping any macronutrients or needed energy for your body. The team at MyBodyMD is happy to consult with you before and during your Skinny Shot injection cycle. We will begin with a look at your medical history, along with discussing your weight loss goals, to determine an appropriate injection schedule that is tailored for you. The majority of patients receive injections over the course of a few months before seeing optimal results.
