Medical Weight Loss

At Fulfill Med Spa, we offer advanced, medically supervised weight loss options using FDA-approved medications like Zepbound and Wegovy. These treatments are designed to help individuals struggling with obesity or weight-related health conditions achieve meaningful, sustained weight loss when paired with lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise

Zepbound (tirzepatide) and Wegovy (semaglutide) are both injectable medications that mimic natural hormones in the body to regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. They work by targeting receptors in the brain that control hunger and fullness, helping patients feel satisfied with smaller portions and experience fewer cravings. Over time, this leads to a steady reduction in weight and improved metabolic health.

Our team at Fulfill Med Spa provides personalized care plans based on your unique health history, goals, and lifestyle. After a consultation and medical evaluation, we’ll determine whether Zepbound or Wegovy is appropriate for you, monitor your progress closely, and adjust your plan as needed. Our goal is to help you lose weight safely while supporting long-term success and confidence.

Beyond aesthetics, weight loss with medications like Zepbound and Wegovy can lead to a wide range of health benefits, including better blood pressure, lower cholesterol, improved insulin sensitivity, and reduced risk of conditions like type 2 diabetes and heart disease. At Fulfill Med Spa, we believe that weight management should be empowering, not overwhelming—and we’re here to help you every step of the way.

How It Works

• Appetite Regulation: Both medications target areas of the brain responsible for appetite control. Wegovy mimics the hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), while Zepbound mimics both GLP-1 and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). These hormones help increase feelings of fullness and reduce cravings, making it easier to eat less without constantly feeling hungry.
• Slows Gastric Emptying: Zepbound and Wegovy both slow down how quickly food leaves the stomach. This process, known as delayed gastric emptying, helps you feel full longer after meals, which naturally reduces calorie intake throughout the day.
• Improves Blood Sugar Control: Originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, both medications help regulate blood sugar by enhancing insulin response and reducing glucose production in the liver. Better blood sugar stability can reduce energy crashes and control appetite more effectively—especially in patients with insulin resistance.
• Encourages Fat Loss, Not Muscle Loss: Clinical studies show that weight loss with these medications comes primarily from body fat, while preserving lean muscle mass. This is especially important for maintaining strength, metabolism, and overall health during the weight loss process.

FAQs

• Who is Eligible to Take Zepbound® or Wegovy?® These medications are typically prescribed for adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with at least one weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. A consultation and medical evaluation are required to determine eligibility and ensure they’re a safe and appropriate option for you.
• How Are These Medications Taken? Both Zepbound and Wegovy are administered as once-weekly subcutaneous injections (under the skin). They come in pre-filled pens that make self-injection easy and convenient at home. Your provider will show you how to administer the medication during your initial visit.
• Are There Any Side Effects?: Some common side effects include nausea, constipation, diarrhea, and fatigue—especially when first starting the medication or increasing the dose. These symptoms often improve as your body adjusts. Serious side effects are rare but can include pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. We closely monitor your progress to manage any concerns early on.
• How Long Do I Need to Be on the Medication?: The duration of treatment depends on your weight loss goals and how your body responds. Some patients may take the medication for several months, while others may continue longer under medical supervision to maintain results. Your provider will guide you through a personalized treatment plan, including how and when to taper off if appropriate.
