Weight Loss Injections

As part of our medical weight loss programme, we offer advanced weight loss injection treatments. These innovative therapies can be life-changing for those struggling with weight loss, providing an additional tool in your weight management journey.

Dr Sajid carefully assesses each patient’s suitability for weightloss injections, ensuring it’s the right choice for your needs and health profile.

Tirzepatide (Zepbound)

Zepbound is a brand name for tirzepatide, approved for chronic weight management. It works as both a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. Key benefits include:

Significant weight loss potential, with clinical trials showing up to 20% body weight reduction
Once-weekly injection
Additional benefits for blood sugar control
Potential cardiovascular improvements

Under Dr Isran Sajid’s expert guidance, we can assess if Zepbound Tirzepatide is suitable for your weight management needs, considering your health status and goals.

Although Tirzepatide is our treatment of choice when it comes to weight loss injections there are several semaglutide injections available on the market, which we can consider depending on each individual’s needs.

GLP-1 Semaglutide (ozempic) Injections

Semaglutide is a revolutionary medication that mimics a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). This hormone plays a crucial role in regulating appetite and food intake. Key benefits include:

Reduced appetite and increased feeling of fullness
Slowed gastric emptying, helping you feel satisfied for longer
Improved blood sugar control

Potential for significant weight loss when combined with diet and exercise

Ozempic

Ozempic is a brand name for semaglutide, specifically approved for type 2 diabetes management. While primarily used for blood sugar control, it has shown remarkable effects on weight loss. Benefits of Ozempic include:

Effective blood sugar management for type 2 diabetes patients
Significant weight loss potential, even in non-diabetic individuals
Once-weekly dosing for convenience
Potential cardiovascular benefits

Under Dr Isran Sajid’s expert guidance, we can determine if Ozempic is an appropriate addition to your weight loss plan, considering your overall health status and weight loss goals.

All Part of Your Holistic Plan

It’s important to note that these injections are part of a comprehensive weight loss strategy.

Dr Sajid and our team will work with you to create a holistic plan that may include these medications along with dietary changes, exercise routines, and behavioural modifications for optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is medical weight loss different from other weight loss programmes?

Medical weight loss is supervised by healthcare professionals and based on scientific evidence. It considers your overall health and can include medical interventions when appropriate, offering a more comprehensive and personalised approach than many commercial weight loss programmes.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

Weight loss varies among individuals. Generally, a safe and sustainable rate of weight loss is about 0.5 to 1 kg per week. Our team will help you set realistic goals based on your circumstances.

Are weight loss medications safe?

When prescribed and monitored by medical professionals, approved weight loss medications can be safe and effective for suitable candidates. We carefully assess each patient’s suitability for medication and closely monitor its effects.

How long does the programme last?

The duration of the programme varies depending on your weight loss goals and progress. Some patients achieve their goals within a few months, while others may benefit from longer-term support. We tailor the programme length to your individual needs.

Will I have to follow a strict diet?

While our programme includes nutritional guidance, we focus on sustainable eating habits rather than overly restrictive diets. Our goal is to help you develop a healthy relationship with food that you can maintain long-term.

Is exercise a required part of the programme?

Physical activity is an important component of weight loss and overall health. We encourage increased activity and guide safe and effective exercise options tailored to your fitness level and preferences.

Can I join if I have other health conditions?

Many patients with health conditions can safely participate in our medical weight loss programme. In fact, losing weight can often improve various health issues. We’ll review your medical history and current health status to ensure our programme is safe and appropriate for you.

How often will I need to visit the clinic?

The frequency of visits varies based on your programme and progress. Initially, visits may be more frequent (e.g., every 2-4 weeks) and may become less frequent as you progress. We also offer virtual consultations for added convenience.

Will I regain the weight after completing the programme?

Our programme focuses on long-term lifestyle changes and provides you with the tools to maintain your weight loss. We offer ongoing support and maintenance programmes to help prevent weight regain.
