At Esthetics by Emi, your trusted medical weight loss experts, we provide comprehensive, medically-supervised weight management programs that deliver real, lasting results. Our experienced team combines cutting-edge treatments like Semaglutide and Ozempic with personalized lifestyle coaching to help you achieve your weight loss goals safely and effectively.
Medical weight loss programs offer distinct advantages over traditional diet and exercise alone. Scientific evidence strongly supports the combination of GLP-1 medications with lifestyle modifications as the safest and most reliable method to achieve lasting weight loss results. Unlike quick-fix solutions, our medically supervised approach addresses the underlying factors that contribute to weight gain and difficulty losing weight.
Semaglutide represents a breakthrough in medical weight loss treatment. This FDA-approved GLP-1 receptor agonist has demonstrated remarkable success in clinical trials, helping patients achieve significant, sustainable weight loss when combined with lifestyle modifications.
How Semaglutide Works: Semaglutide operates by activating GLP-1 receptors in the brain, which leads to decreased hunger and increased satiety. Once GLP-1 is released by the gut after meals, it signals the pancreas to release insulin, increasing insulin secretion and decreasing glucagon secretion, leading to lower blood sugar levels. It also slows down the movement of food through the stomach, promoting a feeling of fullness for longer periods.
As part of our comprehensive medical weight loss services in Utah, we offer Ozempic treatment for eligible patients. This proven medication helps regulate blood sugar levels while promoting significant weight loss through appetite suppression and improved metabolic function.
Every medical weight loss program at Esthetics by Emi is tailored to your unique needs, medical history, and weight loss goals. Our approach includes:
We provide clear, easy-to-follow instructions on medication administration. Our program is designed for your convenience; you'll never have to leave your home for ongoing support. We offer telemedicine consultations and 1:1 healthcare support to ensure your success.
When you're less hungry, you naturally eat less overall. The medications we provide work with your body's natural hunger signals, helping you consume fewer calories without the constant struggle against cravings that makes traditional dieting so difficult.
Unlike crash diets or temporary solutions, our medical weight loss program helps you achieve sustainable weight loss. Semaglutide and similar medications provide an effective long-term solution for weight management, helping you maintain your results over time.

Most patients in our medical weight loss program experience significant results, with many losing 15-20% of their initial body weight over 12-18 months. Individual results vary based on starting weight, adherence to the program, lifestyle factors, and medical history. During your consultation, we'll discuss realistic expectations based on your specific situation and goals.
Insurance coverage for medical weight loss in Utah treatments varies by provider and plan. Some insurance plans may cover consultations and certain medications when prescribed for diabetes management, but coverage for weight loss specifically can be limited. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to understand your benefits, and our team can help verify coverage and explore payment options during your consultation.
Common side effects of GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Ozempic include mild nausea, occasional vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and decreased appetite. These effects are typically mild and often diminish as your body adjusts to the medication. Our medical team carefully monitors patients and adjusts dosing as needed to minimize side effects while maximizing effectiveness.
Medical weight loss treatment duration varies by individual. Many patients continue treatment for 12-24 months or longer to maintain their weight loss results. The medications help reset your body's hunger signals and metabolic function, but stopping treatment may lead to weight regain. Our team works with you to develop a long-term maintenance strategy that may include continued medication or transitioning to lifestyle-based maintenance.
Yes, many patients combine medical weight loss programs with other treatments at Esthetics by Emi. As you lose weight, you may benefit from skin tightening treatments, body contouring, or other cosmetic services. We can create a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses both your weight loss goals and esthetic concerns for optimal overall results.
