QUALITY RESULTS
Why should I choose Medical Weight Management at Jeunea?
Medical Weight Management is chosen by patients who have struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone. Unlike unmonitored online plans or fad diets, our programme provides doctor-led medical oversight, baseline blood screening, and ongoing clinical support, ensuring you lose weight safely while maintaining lean muscle and improving your overall health.
How do GLP-1 weight loss medications work?
Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists mirror a natural hormone your gut produces after eating. They act on key control centres in the brain to reduce hunger, curb intrusive food thoughts, and delay stomach emptying. This helps you feel fuller sooner and stay satisfied longer on smaller meals, making calorie restriction effortless rather than a constant battle.
What is included in the programme?
Comprehensive Medical Consultation: In-depth evaluation of your weight history, lifestyle, and medical background.
Baseline Diagnostic Screening: Pre-treatment blood checks to evaluate liver, kidney, thyroid, and blood glucose markers.
Prescription Medication Supply: Continuous supply of licensed, original weight management treatment tailored to your dosage needs.
Regular Clinical Check-ins: Monthly consultations to track weight loss, adjust medication dosages, monitor side effects, and offer lifestyle support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: How much weight can I expect to lose on a medical weight management programme?
A: Clinical studies show that alongside balanced lifestyle changes, patients on GLP-1 medical weight loss programmes lose an average of 15% to 20% of their starting body weight over a 12-month period.
Q: Are GLP-1 weight loss injections painful?
A: No. The medication is delivered using an ultra-fine, micro-needle pen into the subcutaneous fat layer (typically the abdomen or thigh). Most patients feel nothing more than a tiny, superficial pinch.
Q: What happens when I reach my target weight?
A: Once you achieve your goal weight, your clinician will work with you on a gradual dose reduction (titration) and maintenance phase, reinforcing healthy habits and stabilizing your appetite to help you maintain your results permanently.
