Semaglutide

Struggling with weight loss can feel like an uphill battle, even with the best intentions and consistent effort. That’s why patients throughout Sacramento, Granite Bay, and the surrounding areas are turning to board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rudy Coscia for comprehensive weight loss solutions — including semaglutide, a groundbreaking treatment that supports long-term weight management.

What Is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is an FDA-approved injectable medication originally used to manage type 2 diabetes. It is now widely recognized for its role in supporting medical weight loss. The medication mimics a naturally occurring hormone (GLP-1) that regulates appetite and blood sugar levels, helping you feel full longer and reducing cravings. When used as part of a supervised plan, semaglutide can help you lose significant weight in a healthy, sustainable way.

Benefits of Semaglutide for Weight Loss

Using semaglutide for weight loss under professional guidance can provide a wide range of physical and emotional benefits, such as:

• Reduced hunger and cravings
• Enhanced portion control
• Improved energy levels
• More consistent blood sugar regulation
• Noticeable weight loss over time
• Improved confidence and well-being

You may also find that semaglutide complements the results of cosmetic procedures such as liposuction or tummy tuck by helping you maintain your results more effectively.

Who Is a Candidate for Semaglutide?

Semaglutide may be appropriate for adults who have struggled to attain their weight-loss goals through traditional diet and exercise. Ideal candidates are committed to a healthy lifestyle and want to enhance their weight loss efforts with medical support.

Before prescribing semaglutide, Dr. Coscia and his team conduct a thorough health assessment to ensure this treatment aligns with your goals and overall wellness.

What to Expect During Treatment

Semaglutide is administered once a week through a simple injection, typically in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. The dosage gradually increases over time to minimize side effects and optimize results. Though results are individualized, you should begin to see weight loss within the first few weeks and continue to experience steady progress with ongoing use.

Dr. Coscia monitors you closely throughout your treatment to support safe and effective weight loss.

Semaglutide Costs

The cost of semaglutide treatment can vary based on several factors, including the dosage required, the duration of treatment, and whether it’s part of a broader medical weight loss plan. Because this treatment is highly personalized, Dr. Coscia’s team will provide a detailed overview of expected costs during your consultation.
