MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS

Medical Weight Loss  with semaglutide and tirzepatide Dubuque, Iowa

At Allure Aesthetics + Wellness, our medical weight loss program is thoughtfully designed to help you achieve sustainable results through a personalized, evidence-based approach.

 

Led by a Nurse Practitioner, each plan begins with a comprehensive health assessment and may include prescription medications such as semaglutide or tirzepatide. These are powerful GLP-1 therapies that help regulate appetite, improve metabolic function, and support long-term weight loss.

 

Combined with expert guidance on nutrition, movement, and lifestyle habits, our program is tailored to help you reach your goals with confidence, clarity, and ongoing support.

Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a prescription GLP-1 receptor agonists, which work by mimicking a natural hormone in the body that helps regulate appetite, insulin response, and blood sugar levels. Semaglutide slows digestion, increases feelings of fullness, and reduces cravings—making it easier to eat less and lose weight consistently over time.

 

Common side effects may include nausea, constipation, fatigue, or mild stomach upset, especially when first starting. These typically improve as your body adjusts, and your dose is gradually increased under medical supervision.

 

At Allure Aesthetics + Wellness, your treatment is closely monitored to ensure your comfort, safety, and success throughout the program.

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a cutting-edge medication that works by activating two naturally occurring hormones in the body—GLP-1 and GIP, which together help regulate blood sugar, slow gastric emptying, reduce appetite, and increase satiety.

This dual-action mechanism often leads to even greater weight loss compared to GLP-1 medications alone.

 

Common side effects can include nausea, diarrhea, decreased appetite, or fatigue, especially during the initial dose adjustment period. 

 

At Allure Aesthetics + Wellness, tirzepatide is prescribed as part of a personalized plan, with gradual titration and ongoing support to help you stay comfortable, confident, and on track toward your goals.
