Wegovy weight management injection benefits

Wegovy injections are a prescription medication to help eligible patients with excess weight or obesity to achieve sustainable weight loss, as well as regulate their blood sugar levels. 

  • Weight loss and blood sugar regulation

    Wegovy, or semaglutide, mimics the action of incretin, which is a hormone released in the gut following food intake.
    Wegovy helps to regulate your appetite. It increases feelings of fullness, reduces hunger and the preference for high-fat foods.
    It also reduces blood sugar by stimulating the release of insulin when blood sugar levels are high.

  • Exercise and diet

    Wegovy is designed to be used in conjunction with a balanced, healthy diet and regular exercise, which are an essential part of achieving sustainable, long-term weight loss.

  • Convenience

    Wegovy injections can be self-administered at home, under the medical guidance of your practitioner.

  • Wegovy treatment at Hannah London vs online pharmacies

    At Hannah London, we offer clinical weight management support. We know how important it is for you to receive proper assessment of your medical history and BMI in a clinical environment. Through this we can determine the best approach to dosage for your medical needs, and ensure that you are regularly monitored.
    We do offer a convenient service where we can send your medication out to you, but you will always be looked after by a clinician who knows you personally.
    Our approach is entirely different from online pharmacies, which are not designed to provide you with personalised medical expertise combined with regular monitoring.

Wegovy reviews

Calf augmentation

Nafisa Mirza

After struggling with obesity and weight-related health concerns for several years, I decided to seek medical advice at Hannah London. During my consultation, Dr. Kaywaan carried out a thorough clinical assessment and discussed whether Wegovy was appropriate as part of a structured treatment plan for obesity management and associated metabolic conditions. Over the first 10 weeks of medically supervised treatment, I have lost just over a stone, alongside improvements in my eating patterns and overall wellbeing. What stood out to me was the clear explanation of how the medication works, the ongoing monitoring, and the tailored dosage adjustments to ensure safe and appropriate care. I felt supported throughout the process and reassured that my treatment was delivered in a regulated clinical setting. I would recommend Hannah London to anyone seeking evidence-based treatment for obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and related health conditions under professional medical supervision.

Craig Patel

What stood out to me about Hannah London wasn’t just the treatment, it was how they approach the whole weight loss journey. From the first assessment to the follow-ups, I felt like my goals were taken seriously. The Wegovy weight-loss injections have really helped reduce my cravings, and I’ve been able to focus more on staying active and eating well without constantly battling hunger. It’s the balance I’ve always needed.

Hitesh Kaneria

Dr. Kaywaan and the clinical team at Hannah London were fantastic. I wasn’t just handed a prescription, they took the time to understand my health history and what I was really hoping to achieve. It’s been 8 weeks and I’m already seeing a noticeable difference in both my weight and energy levels. The Wegovy injections are quick and easy, and the real win is how it’s changed my daily habits for the better.

The science behind Wegovy weight management injections

Wegovy is a prescription weight loss medication suitable for adult patients who are overweight or obese with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher. It is also available to adult patients with a weight-related health condition who have a BMI of 27 or higher. 

Wegovy, or semaglutide, is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means that it mimics the function of the naturally occurring hormone, GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1). This incretin hormone is released by the intestines in response to food intake. 

Through mimicking this hormone, Wegovy helps patients feel full sooner after eating, and suppresses food cravings. It also regulates blood sugar by stimulating the release of insulin when blood sugar levels are high. 

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has approved Wegovy as a treatment for reducing the risk of overweight and obese adults suffering serious heart problems or strokes.

Mounjaro or Wegovy 

Both Mounjaro and Wegovy are GLP-1 receptor agonist weight loss medications. Both mimic the action of the GLP-1 hormone to regulate appetite and increase feelings of fullness. 

Mounjaro is a dual-action medicine; it also targets the GIP receptor, which increases insulin sensitivity.  

Wegovy or Ozempic

Like Wegovy, Ozempic is also a brand name for semaglutide, and is administered by the patient once weekly.  

Both Wegovy and Ozempic regulate the appetite and increase feelings of fullness, to help reduce food intake and achieve sustainable weight loss.

Ozempic is indicated as a treatment for type-2 diabetes, obesity and associated medical conditions.

    Your practitioner will select either 1.7mg or 2.4mg for your maintenance dose, depending on your requirements.

  • How long will the results last?

    Clinical trials have shown that patients taking between 1.7mg and 2.4mg of Wegovy can lose 5 to 15% of their body weight after 68 weeks of treatment*.

    Wegovy works best for weight loss when it is used alongside a healthy lifestyle, which includes a balanced diet and regular exercise.

    We also provide nutritional guidance and support, and can refer you to our in-house expert nutritionist if required.
