How It Works
GLP-1 weight management works through multiple pathways to support your weight loss journey. This innovative treatment acts on the brain’s appetite control centers. By slowing gastric emptying, food stays in your stomach longer, extending feelings of fullness and naturally reducing overall calorie intake without constant feelings of deprivation. Additionally, GLP-1 helps stabilize blood glucose levels, which prevents insulin spikes that can lead to fat storage and energy crashes. These treatments support your body’s natural ability to process nutrients efficiently and convert them to energy rather than storing them as fat. GLP-1 therapies are particularly effective for patients who have struggled with conventional diet and exercise programs alone.
What It Treats
GLP-1 therapy supports improvements in:
-
Weight management and obesity
-
Prediabetes and type 2 diabetes
-
Blood sugar regulation
-
Cardiovascular risk factors
-
Joint pain caused by excess weight
-
Sleep apnea symptoms related to weight
-
Energy levels and metabolic function
Benefits
Beyond weight loss, GLP-1 therapy offers significant whole-body health benefits. Many patients report improved blood sugar control, reduced cholesterol and blood pressure, increased energy, improved sleep quality, decreased joint pain, and enhanced confidence. Weight loss often leads to meaningful improvements in daily comfort, mobility, and overall quality of life.
Your Journey with Us
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive medical consultation to determine whether GLP-1 therapy is right for you. Your goals, health history, and expectations are reviewed to create a personalized plan.
GLP-1 Administration
GLP-1 medications are typically administered once weekly. Patients may self-administer at home, receive guidance during the first dose, or choose weekly administration by the Harpe Laser & Wellness team.
Long-Term Success & Maintenance
Our approach emphasizes long-term success, including gradual transitions into maintenance protocols rather than abrupt discontinuation. Ongoing monitoring, lifestyle guidance, and continued medical support help patients maintain results and improved health over time.
