At Weight Loss Derby, We Support Your Weight Loss Journey
At Weight Loss Derby, we are dedicated to helping you achieve your health and weight loss goals using the latest medical advancements. We proudly offer Wegovy®, an innovative solution for weight management featuring the active ingredient semaglutide. Wegovy is designed to support individuals on their path to sustainable weight loss and improved well-being.
What is Wegovy?
Wegovy is a prescription medication for weight loss and long-term weight management. It contains semaglutide, a compound that mimics a natural hormone (GLP-1) to regulate appetite and control food cravings. When combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity, Wegovy can help:
Support weight loss and long-term maintenance.
Reduce appetite and manage food cravings.
Lower the risk of heart-related issues for adults with a history of heart disease and obesity or overweight.
Wegovy is suitable for:
Adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of:
30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or
27–29.9 kg/m² (overweight) with weight-related health conditions.
How Does Wegovy Work?
Wegovy targets receptors in the brain that regulate appetite, helping you feel fuller, less hungry, and more in control of your eating habits. When combined with dietary adjustments and increased physical activity, Wegovy can lead to meaningful and lasting weight loss.
How is Wegovy Administered?
Wegovy is provided as a once-weekly injection through the FlexTouch® pre-filled pen. Treatment starts with a low dose of 0.25 mg per week, gradually increasing over 16 weeks to the recommended dose of 2.4 mg per week.
Injection Sites:
Upper arms
Stomach (abdomen)
Upper legs (thighs)
Our team at Weight Loss Derby will guide you on the correct use of the Wegovy pen, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience.
