What are weight loss Injections?

The launch of GLP-1 medications in 2021 signaled a major advancement in the treatment of obesity and weight-related issues. Supported by a wealth of clinical evidence, these injections have been proven to support effective weight loss and reduce patterns of addictive eating. This approach shifts the narrative by recognizing obesity as a chronic, medically treatable condition, rather than relying solely on the individual’s ability to maintain lifestyle changes. GLP-1 treatments are designed for people who are overweight or obese and also coping with another weight-linked health problem. Today, this therapy is a cornerstone in addressing long-term weight management for nearly 70 percent of American adults.

About GLP-1 Brands: The difference between Ozempic & Wegovy

Both Ozempic and Wegovy are injectable drugs that share the same GLP-1 hormone as their active component. Ozempic gained its approval as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes and is also beneficial for addressing additional health concerns such as high blood pressure and heart disease. Wegovy was later reintroduced and approved specifically to aid with weight loss. Even though their approved uses vary, both medications contain the exact same molecule. When you meet with the doctor, they will evaluate your health profile and determine the proper dosage to match your individual needs.

About GLP-1/GIP Brands: The difference between Mounjaro & Zepbound

Both Mounjaro and Zepbound are brand-name injectable medications that combine GLP-1 and GIP to support weight loss and appetite control. These drugs work differently than standard GLP-1 treatments because they act as dual-agonists, stimulating two distinct hormone receptors at the same time rather than just one. This dual-action mechanism leads to enhanced weight loss results, especially for patients who are prescribed Zepbound, which has a reputation for being more potent.

During your initial consultation, the physician will review your medical history and weight loss goals to tailor the treatment that is best suited for you.

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Lifestyle health! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the warm and welcoming office staff who made me feel right at home. The atmosphere is calming and pristine, creating the perfect environment for relaxation and rejuvenation.

The range of wellness services offered is impressive — from facials to more specialized treatments like nutrition counseling, weight loss and wellness coaching. The nurse practitioners are incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to listen to all of my concerns, providing personalized recommendations that truly made a difference. I felt like they genuinely cared about my well-being.

Every aspect of my visit was top-notch, and I left feeling refreshed, balanced, and more in tune with my health. Highly recommend Lifestyle Health to anyone looking for a holistic and luxurious wellness experience. I'll definitely be back!

When I inquired about medications for weight loss I was warmly welcomed by the staff and immediately assisted. There was no pressure of using their services, instead every question I had was answered. The decision was made and I decided to try the terzipitide. I easily needed to lose 25 lbs. I started off at the lowest dose for a month, then with the help you get from the amazing staff (which is invaluable), I’ve slowly gone up in strength of the medication, my last dose was 7.5mg. I’m on my 15th week and honestly I have never seen 27lbs just fall off so effortlessly. It works that’s all I can say, it really works.

I highly recommend Lifestyle Health Services… I’m on my 3 month there and it’s working like a charm. I feel great and so many of my friends can really see a difference. Annie is awesome she always helps me with scheduling , even when I need to change my appointment last minute Annie is always on top of it. Nicole is amazing too, she really asks me questions about my needs how I’m feeling and always has great suggestions that help me get to the results I want. This is the place if you want results and professional, quality service.

When I first started doing research about weight loss shots and medical spas, there was so many sites not willing to be upfront about the cost. Lifestyle health services was the first to layout all out and I appreciated the straightforwardness. I originally told myself that I would go in once a month, ask for my shots in advance to be done at home, but as I got to know the staff I love going in for my weekly appointment. Nurse Nicole is wonderful, very personable and is always ready to answer any questions I might have. The receptionist Annie is the best! She has been most generous with her time and understanding if I've had to change an appointment last minute or even come later in the day. I consider them my ladies! The office is very accommodating and I would and have recommended this office and service to anyone asking how I have lost so much weight this past year.

“I couldn’t be happier with my results! I started Semaglutide on December 14th, 2022 at 234 pounds. As of March 23 2023, I am down 35 pounds with NO exercise! I experienced little to no side effects, the only being lack of Appetite (which is to be expected on Semaglutide). Overall I am very pleased with my results and I can’t wait to see my results in the future.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What is GLP-1 and how does it help with weight management?

GLP-1 is a hormone that your body produces as part of the digestive process, helping regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. GLP-1-based medications are developed to work in a similar way, curbing appetite and assisting with long-term weight control when diet and exercise alone haven’t been enough.

Is weight management safe?

Yes, under the guidance of medical professionals, weight management treatments are generally regarded as safe and effective. As with all medications, some people may encounter side effects, so it’s best to consult your provider to decide if the treatment is right for you.

Who is a good candidate for weight management in Sherman Oaks?

Weight management may be the right option for people in Sherman Oaks who are overweight or obese and have found that diet and exercise alone aren’t producing the desired results. It can also benefit those facing medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease or type 2 diabetes that are worsened by weight issues.

How long does it take to see results with weight management?

While each body reacts at its own pace, many people notice a decrease in appetite and modest weight reduction within a few weeks of beginning GLP-1 therapy. It can take multiple months to experience the full range of benefits, especially when combined with lifestyle adjustments.

What other weight management strategies should I use alongside therapy?

A well-rounded approach often leads to the best results. In addition to taking medication, eating a healthy, balanced diet and including movement in your daily routine can enhance weight loss. Your provider may introduce other helpful changes such as mindfulness practices or nutrition counseling.

How do I know if weight management is right for me?

Determining if this therapy aligns with your health objectives should be done in collaboration with your provider. A careful evaluation of your body composition, medical needs, and lifestyle will help them decide if this route is ideal for supporting your weight goals.

Do I have to come in every week for weight loss injections?

No, coming into our clinic isn’t required if you’re in Sherman Oaks. We offer remote consultations with the doctor and will mail the medication straight to your door. The injections are user-friendly and intended for home use. You’ll receive follow-up support via scheduled phone calls. If your time allows, however, having your injections administered in our clinic can help us fast-track your weight loss based on your individual medication tolerance.
