What can you expect from medical weight loss?
Studies show that medical weight loss, combined with lifestyle changes, can lead to significant and lasting results.
- Clinical studies indicate that people who use medical weight loss can achieve a weight loss of 10-15%, and in some cases even more.
- Weight loss can help reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, sleep apnea, and other health problems associated with obesity.
- Many people experience increased energy levels, better sleep, and an improved overall quality of life after weight loss. For help and guidance when transitioning to a new lifestyle, you will receive a free appointment with a physiotherapist included in the program at Dr.Dropin
How does medical weight loss work?
Medical weight loss uses medications that are specifically designed to help with weight loss. These medications work in a variety of ways, including:
- Reducing appetite and increasing satiety.
- Influencing the body's metabolism and burning of fat.
- Regulating hormones involved in weight control
The importance of a holistic approach
To achieve optimal and lasting results, it is important to combine medical weight loss with a holistic approach that includes:
- A doctor will provide you with individual guidance and support throughout the process.
- You will be helped to establish healthy eating habits that are tailored to your needs and goals.
- Regular physical activity is important for both weight loss and overall health.
Obesity should be treated as a chronic disease
Our goal is to help individuals reduce their risk of lifestyle diseases associated with overweight and obesity, while promoting better physical and mental health.
We understand that the causes of obesity are complex. It is not always as simple as "eat less and move more". Obesity is a combination of genetics, physiology, environment and the complex interaction of the brain.
That is why we offer a holistic approach to weight loss, focusing on personalized weight management and safe, scientifically proven medications (if necessary). We help you understand the underlying causes of your obesity, and develop an individual plan to achieve lasting weight loss - rather than a quick diet.
Obesity should be treated as a chronic disease, and is not the result of a lack of self-control.
Is medical weight loss right for you?
Medical weight loss may be an option for you if you:
- Have a BMI of 30 or higher.
- Have a BMI of 27 or higher, and also have a weight-related condition such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea.
- Have tried to lose weight with lifestyle changes alone, without success.
