We mentioned in our first survey about semaglutide services being adopted by aesthetics providers that semaglutide and GLP-1 treatments for weight loss are taking the aesthetics and healthcare industry as a whole by storm. While there are already a decent number of aesthetic businesses incorporating this popular weight loss treatment into their services (37%, according to the survey mentioned above), the question still remains as to how far this aesthetics industry-shaping treatment will spread and be adopted into aesthetic practices and medspas.
Semaglutide treatments arguably have a direct and complementary relation to new skin tightening treatments and continued advances in skin laxity treatments that can handle the subsequent Ozempic-face/butt/etc. phenomenon, which in reality is a common result of any individual losing a significant amount of weight in a short period of time, taking the aesthetics industry to an entirely new peak of body sculpting possibilities. This makes incorporating semaglutide treatments into an aesthetic practice that can also address the subsequent skin laxity and other aesthetic goals of these patients, make sense for patients and providers, allowing a complete and consistent treatment plan to be conducted and monitored by one trusted practitioner rather than separately.
In our recent survey which asked, Are you considering adding semaglutide treatments for weight loss at your medspa or practice? 77% of readers said yes and 23% said no.
5 Important Considerations When Adding Semaglutide Therapy for Weight Loss
It is far preferable for patients seeking these treatments to choose qualified medical professionals in a medical setting where their treatment progress and response can be regularly monitored rather than the numerous telemedicine, gym franchises and other provider options cropping up. Considering these various factors, adding semaglutide treatments for weight loss at your medspa or aesthetic practice can benefit your business and patients in general, but it is always important to consider every factor involved before making such a decision.
