Liraglutide for Weight Loss
(includes medication, diet & exercise plan, as well as a complimentary consultation with monthly follow up appointments)
Looking for a weight loss approach that goes beyond wishful thinking? Many people find that diet and exercise alone simply aren’t enough to achieve meaningful fat loss. At Allure Esthetic, we offer compounded Liraglutide as part of our medically supervised weight-loss program—an option that may help you overcome stubborn fat and finally reach the lasting results you’ve been longing for. [1]
What Is Liraglutide?
Liraglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist originally developed to help control blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes and later for chronic weight management. We use a compounded formulation of Liraglutide, meaning the medication is custom-prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies specifically for your use. This compounded version provides flexibility in dosing tailored precisely to your individual goals and needs.[2]
Important Note:
Compounded medications, including Liraglutide, are not FDA-approved.
How Does Liraglutide Help With Fat Loss?
Liraglutide works by mimicking a hormone (GLP-1) that regulates appetite and food intake :
- Reduced Appetite: It may help you feel fuller sooner, potentially leading to reduced calorie intake. [3]
- Slowed Gastric Emptying: It can slow down how quickly food leaves your stomach, which may help prolong satiety [4]
- Regulated Insulin Levels: For individuals with type 2 diabetes, Liraglutide can also assist in blood sugar control, though the dosing and indications may differ from its weight management use. [5]
What Can You Expect with Liraglutide?
Clinical studies of Liraglutide-based medications have demonstrated significant weight-loss results, averaging about 8% body weight reduction over approximately one year (56 weeks) when combined with lifestyle changes. [6] However, Liraglutide isn’t a “one-and-done” solution. It’s a tool that can be highly effective when blended with consistent lifestyle measures like balanced meals, regular exercise, and medical follow-ups.
Note: Results from compounded Liraglutide are expected to be similar. However, individual results vary, and precise efficacy data for compounded versions specifically have not been separately studied in extensive clinical trials.
Why Liraglutide Could Be Great For You?
- Reduces Constant Cravings: It may help curb your appetite naturally, letting you feel satisfied quicker—and longer. [7]
- Supports Better Blood Sugar: This is Great news if you're dealing with blood sugar challenges, as Liraglutide can help stabilize glucose levels and support metabolic health. [8]
- Gives Your Diet & Exercise a Boost: Acts as your reliable partner in weight loss, enhancing the results from your healthy lifestyle changes. [9]
Is There Any Downtime?
Liraglutide treatment itself typically requires no formal downtime. You can continue your usual daily activities. However, you may experience temporary side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation. These generally improve over time. If they persist or become severe, you must talk to your doctor.
