Common Questions

What patients ask before their first visit

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It signals fullness, slows gastric emptying, and reduces cravings — making it dramatically easier to eat at a calorie deficit consistent enough to drive sustainable weight loss. It works on biology rather than relying on willpower.

Clinical trials show patients lose 12–18% of body weight on average over 12 months. At Aspire, we typically see 1–2 lbs of weight loss per week with consistent adherence and follow-up. Results depend on starting weight, dosing, and lifestyle alignment.

The most common side effects are mild gastrointestinal — nausea, occasional reflux, constipation — especially during dose escalation. These usually resolve within 2–4 weeks of starting a new dose. Our physicians monitor closely and adjust dosing to minimize discomfort.

Most patients stay on a therapeutic dose for 6–12 months to reach their target weight, then transition to a lower maintenance dose. We design the long-term plan together based on your goals and response.

Pricing depends on the dose and program length. We provide complete pricing transparency at your initial consultation — including the medication, monitoring, and follow-up — so there are no surprises.
