As a certified partner of the National Medical Weight Loss Programme (NMWLP), estheva offers comprehensive medical support, advice, and a range of treatment options tailored to your unique needs. In this blog, we’ll delve into how estheva can be your trusted ally in achieving your weight loss goals.
The Importance of Professional Guidance in Weight Loss
Embarking on a weight loss journey can be daunting. With so many options and information available, it’s crucial to seek professional guidance. estheva’s approach begins with a thorough medical consultation, essential for understanding your health, well-being, and weight struggles. This first step is not just a procedure but a foundation for your personalised weight management plan.
Understanding the NMWLP at estheva
As part of the NMWLP, estheva offers more than just treatments; they provide a holistic approach to weight loss. Here’s what you can expect:
Initial Medical Consultation
This step involves measurements and discussions about your overall health. It’s an opportunity to explore various weight management options and understand what suits you best. All new patients require baseline bloods prior to commencing treatment.
Medication Options
If you’re suitable for medication, estheva offers treatments involving a simple, painless injection. This can be self-administered daily or weekly using a pre-filled, easy-to-use pen. These medications work by mimicking the body’s natural hormone GLP-1, which regulates appetite and food intake.
How the Medication Works
The treatment options aim to reduce your appetite by mimicking GLP-1, a hormone released after eating, making you feel full and satisfied for longer. This leads to reduced calorie intake and, consequently, weight loss.
Comprehensive Support
Beyond medication, estheva’s NMWLP provides advice on maintaining a calorie-controlled diet, making it easier for you to reach your weight loss goals.
Understanding Wegovy weight loss medicine
Wegovy is a revolutionary medication in weight management and aiding weight loss. This medicine contains semaglutide, an active ingredient traditionally used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Semaglutide works by mimicking a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that targets areas of the brain which regulate appetite and food intake. The administration of Wegovy is via a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, making it a convenient option for individuals seeking a long-term solution to weight management.
Clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of Wegovy in promoting significant weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Patients using Wegovy have reported a marked reduction in appetite, leading to a decrease in calorie intake and consequent weight loss.
However, it is important to note that Wegovy is not a silver bullet for weight loss. It should be used as part of a comprehensive weight management program, including lifestyle changes, under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
Who Is Suitable for weight loss treatments
A critical aspect of the NMWLP at estheva is determining who is suitable for the prescribed medications. These medications, designed to aid in weight loss, are effective when used in conjunction with a proper diet and exercise regimen. However, they are not suitable for everyone. Adults aged between 18-75 with a BMI of 30 or above or a BMI of 27 with weight-related health issues are candidates for weight loss treatments at Estheva.
Who Isn’t Suitable for weight loss treatments at estheva?
Those with allergies to medication components, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those with certain medical histories (including medullary thyroid cancer or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2), severe organ-related diseases, certain mental health conditions, or those already taking specific medications.
