What is Semaglutide and how does it work?
Semaglutide is a medication that belongs to the GLP-1 receptor agonist class of drugs. It imitates the GLP-1 hormone, leading to increased insulin production, reduced glucagon secretion, and slower gastric emptying.
These combined effects help lower blood sugar levels following meals and curb appetite, promoting weight loss and helping to maintain a healthy weight.
How does Semaglutide differ from Ozempic and Wegovy?
Semaglutide is the active ingredient found in both Wegovy and Ozempic, though they each contain different doses of Semaglutide.
They are approved for different uses, allowing them to address various health concerns with tailored treatments.
Ozempic – Approved for type II diabetes, lower dose than Wegovy.
Wegovy – Approved for weight management, a higher dose than Ozempic.

Semaglutide Clinical Trial Weight Loss Results
- Participants: Over 1,900 adults with obesity or overweight.
- Results: Those taking Semaglutide lost an average of 14.9% of their body weight over 68 weeks, whereas the placebo group lost just 2.4%.
Is Semaglutide FDA approved?
YES, Wegovy was approved by the FDA in 2021, based on evidence from four 68-week trials involving 4,500 patients.
These trials demonstrated that those taking Wegovy experienced considerable weight loss, showing its effectiveness.
Potential Side Effects of Semaglutide
You may experience side effects from Semaglutide, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach discomfort, or constipation. Though allergic reactions are highly uncommon, they remain a potential risk. Thankfully, the typical side effects are mild and improve as time passes.
Dr. Michael Rankin will take the time during your initial consultation to discuss any health conditions you may have and review possible side effects, providing you with the support and knowledge needed for your weight loss journey.
Know Your Medical History Before Starting Semaglutide
Lifestyle Med Spa - Our Story
Dr. Kim Barrus, our chief of operations, took Semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and lost 22 pounds in just four months. He felt more energized, confident, and healthier, which prompted him to dive into further research.
The studies he found aligned with his own experience, showing that these medications are highly effective in improving both appearance and overall health.
This inspired Dr. Barrus to open the medical spa, offering these treatments for weight management, high blood pressure, and more to clients across Ventura, Los Angeles counties, and Southern California.
As the spa has grown, we’ve added a variety of services to support your overall health and wellness goals.
