What is the medical weight loss programme?
How can we help you?
Weight management isn’t just about dieting and losing weight; its about about changing your attitude around your relationship with food, drink and exercise. Aesthetics by Emma and its partners can help you achieve this.
At our clinic in Denbigh, we specialise in Weight Management Programs. As a member of the National Wight Loss Program, Aesthetics by Emma now offer a range of weight management services including.
Weekly Weight Management Pen Injections
Daily Weight Management Pen Injections
Tailored Nutritional plans
All these treatments are carried out under the direct supervision of our Advanced Nurse Practitioner Emma Roberts who has years of medical experience with the NHS.
HOW DO THEY WORK?
They work by copying, or mimicking, the functions of the natural incretin hormones in your body that help lower post-meal blood sugar levels These functions include:
Stimulating the release of insulin by the pancreas after eating, even before blood sugars start to rise.
Inhibiting the release of glucagon by the pancreas. Glucagon is a hormone that causes the liver to release its stored sugar into the bloodstream.
Slowing glucose absorption into the bloodstream by reducing the speed at which the stomach empties after eating, thus making you feel more satisfied after a meal
