How does the weight loss injection work?

The so-called slimming injection uses modern active ingredients from the class of GLP-1 receptor agonists. These drugs mimic the body’s own hormones, which regulate the feeling of hunger and slow down gastric emptying. This means:
You feel full faster, eat less and lose weight in the long term – without feeling hungry all the time.

Important:
The weight loss injection does not replace a healthy lifestyle. It is part of a holistic treatment concept that includes diet, exercise and medical care.

Who is the slimming syringe suitable for?

The therapy is particularly suitable for people who:

have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity),
or have a BMI of 27 or more in combination with comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or sleep apnea.

During a personal consultation, we will check with you whether this form of therapy is suitable for you and which individual goals are realistically achievable.

Who is a weight loss injection not suitable for?

Treatment with the slimming injection is not useful or safe for every patient. The therapy is generally not an option in the following cases:

For severe diseases of the pancreas (e.g. acute or chronic pancreatitis)
For certain thyroid diseases (e.g. medullary thyroid carcinoma or family history)
For severe gastrointestinal diseases
For severe mental illnesses or eating disorders (e.g. anorexia, bulimia)
During pregnancy or breastfeeding
In case of known hypersensitivity to the active substance or one of the excipients

Furthermore, therapy is not recommended if there is no medical indication (e.g. obesity or weight-related comorbidities).

The most frequently asked questions about weight loss injections

Is the weight loss injection suitable for everyone?

No. A careful medical examination is essential. Use may be ruled out, particularly in the case of pre-existing conditions such as pancreatitis or severe gastrointestinal diseases.

How quickly can I lose weight with the slimming injection?

Initial successes can be seen after just a few weeks. However, the exact course is individual and also depends heavily on accompanying measures such as diet and exercise.

Are there any side effects?

As with any medication, side effects can occur, including nausea, indigestion or loss of appetite. We monitor your therapy closely in order to recognize and treat possible side effects at an early stage.

Do I also have to do sport?

Exercise significantly supports the success of the therapy. We recommend that you integrate an individually adapted exercise program into your everyday life.
