in Harrisonburg, VA
Studio R Aesthetics is proud to offer weight loss treatment with semaglutide in Harrisonburg, an FDA-approved medication that can significantly reduce unwanted fat. Semaglutide is a once a week subcutaneous injection that suppresses appetite and hunger cravings through the appetite center in the brain. This means that patients taking semaglutide feel full earlier in a meal so they eat fewer calories. It also suppresses cravings so that you are less likely to eat the types of food that lead to weight gain that contain high levels of simple carbohydrates and unhealthy fats.
Semaglutide is a generic medication that is the same as Wegovy and Ozempic, which has been used in diabetics to reduce weight for more than 10 years.

There is a considerable amount of data supporting the safety and effectiveness of semaglutide. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study using a cross-over model, 30 patients who took semaglutide lost an average of 11 pounds over 12 weeks doing nothing other than taking semaglutide – they did not change their diet or activity level. The patients who took placebo actually gained a small amount of weight. The majority of weight lost was body fat, not lean muscle mass.
See figure 4 in this article:
The ideal candidate has 10 or more pounds of unwanted body fat that they have had difficulty losing through diet and exercise alone. Patients who have frequent cravings or are prone to binge eating or emotional eating would greatly benefit from our Harrisonburg semaglutide treatment. Patients do not have to be dieting or exercising, but these activities make semaglutide more effective through a variety of mechanisms.

The first treatment with semaglutide starts with a 2mL vial that lasts 10 weeks. Our specialists walk you through the process of administering a subcutaneous injection so that you are able to perform these at home each week without coming back into the office. Patients have the option of coming into the office for subsequent injections at no additional cost.
“I have been on a weight loss treatment from Studio R Aesthetics. My starting weight was 136…I am now 125… in only 4 WEEKS. (I am 5’3, and was borderline overweight for my height).
The treatment I am on is called Semaglutide. Semaglutide reduces insulin secretion. It is also known to reduce body weight and body fat mass through lowered food intake or reduced appetite.
With my issue of constant binge eating, this treatment has taught me how to eat things that will actually benefit my body, get the nutrition I need, and be full quickly enough to where I don’t even feel the want or need to see what else is in my fridge at all hours of the night.
I’ll just say that I am absolutely MIND BLOWN at these results after only 4 weeks. My jaw is dropped. SAME JEANS. Not edited.
I have been insecure about my weight for I don’t even know how long. So insecure that I would say no to certain things in the summer with friends and started wearing only sweatshirts because I was so ashamed. This is life changing for me. Thank you Brandy Segura, finally starting to feel confident and see myself in the mirror again. ”
