What is Ozempic®?

Ozempic® is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics the body’s natural hormones to help regulate blood sugar levels and reduce appetite. Originally approved for type 2 diabetes management, it has become a popular and effective tool for weight loss in eligible patients.

At Premier MedSpa, Dr. Chakeer includes Ozempic® in medically supervised programs that prioritize safe, sustained weight management. By helping control hunger and supporting glucose balance, Ozempic® allows your body to work with you—not against you—on your wellness journey.

Who can benefit from Ozempic®?

You may be a candidate for Ozempic® if:

• You have type 2 diabetes and are looking for improved blood sugar control, or
• You meet clinical criteria for weight loss support (e.g., BMI of 30 or higher, or 27+ with weight-related conditions like high blood pressure or high cholesterol)

Dr. Chakeer performs a complete evaluation—including labs and medical history review—to determine whether Ozempic® is the right fit for your needs. Each plan is tailored to your health background and long-term goals.

How does Ozempic® help with weight loss?

Ozempic® slows digestion, increases feelings of fullness, and reduces cravings by targeting appetite-related hormones. This helps you make more mindful eating choices and maintain consistency with your nutritional goals.

When combined with lifestyle changes and guidance from the Premier MedSpa team, many patients experience steady and measurable weight loss over time.

What should I expect during treatment?

Ozempic® is a once-weekly injection that’s easy to administer at home. Dr. Chakeer will guide you through the process, adjusting dosage as needed and monitoring your response closely. While some patients experience mild side effects like nausea or fatigue, most symptoms fade as the body adjusts.

Regular check-ins help keep your plan safe, supportive, and aligned with your progress.

Why choose Ozempic® at Premier MedSpa?

Dr. Chakeer believes in treating the whole person, not just the number on the scale. At Premier MedSpa, Ozempic® is part of a personalized care model that may also include nutrition coaching, hormone support, or other wellness treatments.
