At Prime Skin & Laser Med Spa, we offer medically supervised weight loss injections, including advanced options like semaglutide GLP-1 and Ozempic, to help our clients achieve their wellness goals safely and effectively. These injections are typically recommended for individuals who meet specific medical criteria. Generally, candidates should have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (classified as obesity). However, those with a BMI of 27 or higher may also qualify if they have at least one weight-related health condition, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.
Before starting any weight loss injection program at Prime Skin, our experienced medical team will conduct a thorough assessment of your overall health, weight history, and previous weight loss efforts. This ensures the treatment is safe and appropriate for you. Certain medical conditions may disqualify individuals from using these medications due to increased risk of side effects. Additionally, weight loss injections are not recommended for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant, as safety has not been established in these situations.
At Prime Skin, your health and safety are our top priorities. Our providers will work with you to determine if weight loss injections are the right option based on your unique medical history, goals, and lifestyle. These medications are most effective when combined with healthy eating and increased physical activity, and our team is here to support you throughout your weight loss journey.
At Prime Skin, we are dedicated to helping our clients look and feel their best through a comprehensive range of advanced treatments. Among our most popular wellness services are weight loss injections, featuring proven medications such as semaglutide GLP-1. These innovative injections have become a game-changer for individuals struggling with obesity or weight-related health concerns, offering a medically supervised solution for sustainable weight loss.
Our weight loss injections work by targeting appetite-regulating pathways in the brain, making it easier for you to feel full and reduce your daily caloric intake. Clinical studies support that these medications can help individuals lose and maintain significantly more weight than lifestyle changes alone. At Prime Skin, we tailor treatment plans to each client’s unique needs, ensuring you receive the most effective and safe care possible.
The benefits of weight loss injections at our med spa extend far beyond the visible transformation. Achieving a healthier weight can improve blood sugar control—an essential benefit for clients with type 2 diabetes or those at risk. Lowering your body weight also contributes to reduced blood pressure and improved cholesterol levels, which together lower your risk of heart disease, stroke, and other serious health issues. Many of our clients also experience relief from conditions commonly associated with excess weight, such as sleep apnea, fatty liver disease, and joint discomfort.
At Prime Skin & Laser Med Spa, we recognize that weight loss is not just about numbers on a scale—it’s about enhancing your confidence, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. Our medical team provides expert guidance and ongoing support, combining weight loss injections with personalized recommendations for nutrition and activity to help you achieve lasting results.
At Prime Skin, we are committed to providing safe, effective, and personalized solutions to help you look and feel your best. Weight loss injections have recently emerged as powerful tools for supporting weight management. These medications work by mimicking natural hormones that control appetite, helping you feel fuller for longer and making it easier to reduce calorie intake.
Is It Safe for Everyone?
While clinical studies show that weight loss injections can be highly effective for many people dealing with obesity or weight-related health concerns, they are not suitable for everyone. At Prime Skin & Laser your safety is our top priority. Before starting any weight loss program, our experienced medical team will conduct a thorough health evaluation to ensure these medications are right for you.
Certain individuals—such as those with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, a history of pancreatitis, severe gastrointestinal disease, or specific eye conditions—should avoid these treatments. Additionally, weight loss injections are not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Weight loss injections are most effective when combined with healthy lifestyle changes, including a balanced diet and regular exercise. Our providers will work with you to develop a personalized plan that fits your unique needs and goals.
If you’re considering weight loss injections or want to explore your options, Prime Skin & Laser Med Spa is here to help. Schedule a consultation with our medical experts to determine if these treatments are right for you and to receive the support you need on your weight loss journey.
At Prime Skin we are committed to supporting your health and wellness journey with the latest in medical aesthetics and weight management solutions. One of the innovative services we offer includes weight loss injections featuring GLP-1 receptor agonists. These medications have been clinically shown to help control appetite for individuals struggling with obesity or being overweight.
GLP-1 receptor agonists work by mimicking a natural hormone (glucagon-like peptide-1) released in your gut after eating. This hormone signals your brain to promote feelings of fullness, slow gastric emptying, and decrease hunger cues. When combined with a balanced diet and regular physical activity, these injections can help reduce calorie intake and support effective, sustainable weight loss.
At Prime Skin, our experienced medical professionals will work with you to develop a personalized and comprehensive weight management plan. Not everyone responds to weight loss injections in the same way, and these medications are not suitable for everyone. Potential side effects—such as nausea, vomiting, or gastrointestinal discomfort—can occur, and certain medical conditions may make this therapy inadvisable.
That’s why a thorough consultation with our healthcare team is essential before starting treatment. We will assess your medical history, discuss your goals, and determine whether weight loss injections are the right choice for your individual needs. Contact us today for more information or schedule an appointment online. We are conveniently located at 5748 N Canton Center Rd, Canton Township, MI 48187. We serve clients from Canton MI, Westland MI, Plymouth MI, Wayne MI, Superior Charter Twp MI, Frain Lake MI, Romulus MI, Belleville MI, Ypsilanti MI, Van Buren Charter Township MI and surrounding areas.
