As more people learn of Ozempic and its incredible weight loss capabilities, medical centers nationwide have begun offering the medication. At Allure Esthetic, the practitioners wanted to go beyond offering the prescription and help patients establish a sustainable, healthy lifestyle. They understand that every patient is unique and requires different doses and plans to achieve their goals. This care and dedication to their patients inspired them to create a weight loss program combining Ozempic, diet, and physical activity to help patients achieve their weight and change their lives.
The program includes an initial consultation, Ozempic prescription, nutritional meal plans, exercise routines, and monthly check-ins. All of these steps produce one of the highest quality weight loss treatments Seattle patients can find. Here is what you can expect during the Ozempic weight loss plan:
The Ozempic Consultation
Every patient is assessed individually to see if they are a candidate for the Ozempic weight loss plan. The consultation is either in person or via video chat. The consultation's main purpose is to ensure the patient is a safe candidate for the medication. The practitioner will take the patient’s weight, either in person or by having them self-report it if they are virtual. Next, they will need a complete personal and familial medical history and a review of all prior and current medications. It’s essential for patients to have full transparency, as some medical conditions and medications can interfere with Ozempic. Finally, they will discuss the patient’s past experience and troubles with weight loss. All of this information will help determine if the patient is right for the medication and program.
Dosage
We follow the recommended guide for The dosage of Ozempics unless the patient has specific health needs or does not do well with a certain dose. However, the general dosage goes as follows:
- 0.25 mg for the first 4 weeks - once weekly
- 0.5 mg for the next 4 weeks - once weekly
- 1 mg for the following 4 weeks - once weekly
- 2 mg for the rest of the time & maintenance - once weekly
Monthly Check-Ins
Allure Esthetics believes that weight loss goes beyond the numbers on the scale and focuses on improving the overall well-being of its patients. Once patients begin the Ozempic weight loss plan, they will have in-person or virtual check-ins with their practitioner. During these check-ins, they will assess the patient's progress and any potential side effects. This will help them adjust the medication dosage to fit the patient's needs better.
Typically, the patient will begin on a low dose of Ozempic to ensure their digestive system has time to adjust to the prescription.
