Introduction
Many of our patients come to Bellava after trying every diet imaginable.
We offer a science-driven, effective path to sustainable weight loss that finally feels doable.
Our Semaglutide Weight-Loss Program helps reduce appetite and improve fullness by working with your body’s natural metabolic signals — all under the supervision of our expertly trained providers in a private, luxury setting.
What Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is an FDA-approved GLP-1 medication originally developed for diabetes management and now used to support medical weight loss.
The medication gently mimics a hormone your body already produces — the one that tells your brain you’re comfortably full — so you naturally eat less without losing energy or focus.
At Bellava, our doctors monitor dosage, progress, and comfort to ensure your plan is effective and sustainable.

Is It Right for You?
Semaglutide is best suited for adults with BMI ≥ 27 who struggle to lose weight through diet and exercise alone, or have weight-related conditions such as prediabetes or high cholesterol.
It’s not recommended for anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding, or has a personal/family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or MEN2.
Our medical team will carefully review your health history to ensure this treatment is appropriate for you.
What to Expect
- Most patients begin with a low starter dose to allow the body to adjust gradually.
- Some notice mild nausea or bloating in the early weeks, but those feelings usually fade as your body adjusts.
- Visible changes typically appear within 8–12 weeks when treatment is combined with balanced nutrition and regular movement.
- We’ll help you set realistic goals and build lasting habits for maintenance.
Results You Can Expect
With consistent treatment and guidance, patients typically see steady, noticeable weight reduction within the first few months.
Semaglutide supports gradual, sustainable change — helping you keep the weight off long-term rather than chasing quick fixes.
We’ll track your progress together, celebrating every milestone safely and thoughtfully.
