What Is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is an FDA-approved prescription medication originally developed to treat Type 2 diabetes. Today, it’s widely used to assist with weight loss in adults who are overweight or have weight-related health concerns.

It works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, which helps regulate appetite and food intake. By signaling feelings of fullness sooner and reducing cravings, Semaglutide helps you consume fewer calories while feeling more satisfied—without the need for restrictive diets or intense workouts.

Your Weight Loss Journey Starts with a Consultation

At Aurora Medical Spa in Oakville, we begin with a thorough evaluation of your overall health, weight loss goals, and lifestyle. During your consultation, our provider will:

  • Review your health history
  • Evaluate your BMI and current weight
  • Order any necessary lab work
  • Create a personalized weight management plan

This first step helps ensure that Semaglutide is a safe and effective option for you.
