For safe and effective weight loss, look no further than Oviedo Med Spa’s Semaglutide program available to residents in Orlando, FL, and surrounding Central Florida areas. Known by its brand name, Wegovy, Semaglutide is a medication classified as a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. This medication mimics a hormone in your body, GLP-1. This peptide therapy stimulates insulin production, sending signals to your brain telling you that you are full, slowing gastric emptying. Semaglutide is intended to prolong your hunger, leading to gradual weight loss naturally.
