What is Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss is a comprehensive, physician-supervised approach to losing weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Unlike fad diets or quick fixes, medical weight loss programs are tailored to your individual needs and are based on scientific principles. These programs typically involve a combination of nutrition counseling, exercise plans, behavioral therapy, and FDA-approved medications to help you reach and maintain your desired weight. At Figura Medspa, our medical weight loss program is customized to ensure you achieve lasting results in a safe and supportive environment.
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide
Two of the most promising treatments in medical weight loss today are Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, both of which are available at Figura Medspa.
- Semaglutide works by mimicking a hormone that targets areas of the brain responsible for regulating appetite, helping you feel full and satisfied with smaller portions.
- Tirzepatide combines the benefits of two different hormones to regulate blood sugar levels and control appetite. It has been shown to help patients lose a significant amount of weight, particularly when combined with lifestyle changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Medical weight loss is ideal for individuals who have a BMI of 30 or higher, or those with a BMI of 27 or higher with obesity-related conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure. It’s also suitable for those who have struggled to lose weight through traditional methods.
Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide work by regulating appetite and blood sugar levels, helping you feel fuller with smaller portions and reducing cravings. These medications are most effective when combined with a healthy diet and exercise.
Results vary depending on the individual and their adherence to the program. However, many patients begin to see noticeable weight loss within a few weeks of starting treatment.
Common side effects of Semaglutide and Tirzepatide include nausea, diarrhea, and mild digestive discomfort, which typically subside as your body adjusts to the medication. Our team will monitor your progress and adjust your treatment as needed.
The duration of medication use varies based on individual goals and progress. Some patients may transition off medication once they reach their target weight, while others may continue using it as part of a long-term maintenance plan.
