What is Semaglutide?

If a healthy diet and consistent exercise aren't helping you lose weight, OC Medical Tustin is happy to offer semaglutide injections as an effective way to speed up your weight reduction process. Semaglutide is a prescription injection that is not habit-forming and not a controlled substance. These injections can assist you in controlling hunger, saying no to cravings, and reducing calorie consumption in order to lose extra weight. Semaglutide is most effective when combined with a good diet and regular exercise regimen. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Arturo Portales at our Tustin, CA office to learn more about semaglutide for weight loss.

How Do Semaglutide Injections Work?

The hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) controls appetite and the sensation of "fullness." Semaglutide was initially created to mimic this hormone and help people with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar levels. Subsequent clinical tests discovered that individuals could shed as much as 10 – 15 percent of their starting weight with subcutaneous semaglutide injections. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized the injections for chronic weight management in 2021. Weekly semaglutide injections help patients feel full and satisfied while still maintaining energy levels when combined with a healthy, low-calorie diet.

Before starting your personalized semaglutide weight loss injection regimen, Dr. Portales at OC Medical Tustin will outline treatment options with you, including if you can administer the injections yourself. In order to identify the optimal course of treatment, we will consider your medical history and weight loss objectives. For the best outcomes, many patients will need weekly injections for at least six months.

I have been a patient for the past 10 years now! This original review was seven years old and I figured it deserved an update. He’s still a great doctor only now his resources to specialized services has expanded greatly. His team of professionals are really extraordinarily wonderful. Check out his website for the many services they offer now. Dr. Portales has been an incredibly understanding and knowledgable doctor. I've been to many doctors that don't really seem to hear or understand some of my physical disabilities and Dr. Portales has been incredibly insightful in helping me to understand where my weight issues derive from and some alternative methods to pain management with my back. I would recommend Dr. Portales and any of his associates for those in medical need who want a doctor that will be sympathetic and professional in helping solve your health issues. In addition to the doctor being awesome, the girls that work in his office are incredible and somehow can even recognize my voice when I call (once every month or two) and always flexible to meet my busy scheduling needs. I give OC Medical an A+ and suggest you give them a try.

OC Medical just got the NuEra for fat burning and it is no joke. I had some loose skin after a surgery and Rachel knew exactly what I needed. I did the Accufit with the NuEra and the results are night and day after one session. The NuEra was so comfortable and tightened the skin and got rid of fat while the Accufit toned. I’m so happy with service here and the staff is really incredible. They have all your beauty and esthetic needs!
