What is Weight Loss Treatment?

Weight loss treatment at Rostami OPC includes various options to help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight. Our programs primarily focus on utilizing GLP-1 medications, which are FDA-approved for weight management. These treatments mimic a natural hormone in the body that regulates appetite and calorie intake, leading to effective and sustainable weight loss.

Candidates for Weight Loss Treatment

Ideal candidates for our weight loss treatment are individuals with a BMI (Body Mass Index) that classifies them as overweight or obese and who may be experiencing health problems related to their weight. This treatment is particularly beneficial for those who have struggled with traditional weight loss methods without success. A thorough evaluation by our team will determine if GLP-1 medication is an appropriate and safe option for you.

Weight Loss Treatment

Your weight loss treatment at Rostami OPC begins with a comprehensive assessment of your health, weight history, and lifestyle. For those prescribed GLP-1 treatments, the medication is administered through injections under medical supervision. The dosage and frequency are carefully adjusted to maximize weight loss while minimizing side effects. The treatment plan may include nutritional counseling, exercise recommendations, and regular monitoring to adjust the approach.

What are the most effective weight loss treatments available today?

GLP-1 medications are some of the most effective weight loss treatments available today. With a weekly injection, GLP-1 can slow down digestion, make you feel fuller longer, and regulate your blood sugar levels, making it easier for you to lose weight.

How do GLP-1 medications work for weight loss?

GLP-1 medications work by mimicking the effects of the natural GLP-1 hormone in the body. This signals the brain to make you feel fuller longer, delays how fast the stomach empties, reduces appetite, and controls your blood sugar to make it easier for you to lose weight.

What are the benefits of medical weight loss programs over traditional dieting?

One of the main benefits of medical weight loss programs over traditional dieting is that they often offer a kickstart to your weight loss journey. You can also lose weight quicker with medical weight loss programs and receive the support you need.

Who is a suitable candidate for weight loss treatments like GLP-1?

Ideal candidates for weight loss treatments like GLP-1 medications are patients with a BMI of 30 or higher or a BMI of 27 or higher and one or more weight-related medical conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and more. You are also a good candidate if you have struggled with weight loss in the past.

What are the common side effects of GLP-1 weight loss medications?

As with any medications, GLP-1 weight loss medications come with side effects as well. Some of the most common side effects include constipation, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting.

How long does it typically take to see results from weight loss treatments?

While some patients start to see results from weight loss treatments within a few weeks, most require several months to see significant improvements. That said, every patient will see varying results depending on individual factors.

Can weight loss treatments improve overall health beyond just weight reduction?

Absolutely! Weight loss can significantly improve your overall health and help you lose weight. With significant weight loss, you can reduce the risk of chronic illness, improve your metabolism, and improve your cardiovascular health.

What role does nutrition counseling play in a comprehensive weight loss program?

Nutrition counseling is a vital part of any comprehensive weight loss program. By sticking to a healthy diet developed by a nutritionist, it becomes easier to lose weight and keep the weight off.

How do I maintain weight loss after completing a treatment program?

After your weight loss treatment program, you’ll want to stick to a healthy diet and a regular exercise regimen. Maintaining these healthy habits makes you much less likely to gain the weight back.

What lifestyle changes are recommended to support weight loss treatments?

We recommend sticking to a healthy diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins, and practicing a regular exercise routine. These actions will help support your weight loss treatments and ensure you receive the care you need.
