Medical Weight Loss in Las Vegas

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics a natural gut hormone to suppress appetite, slow digestion, and help your brain register fullness sooner. In clinical trials, patients lost an average of 15–20% of their body weight over 68 weeks. Modern Wellness Clinic in Las Vegas prescribes FDA-cleared GLP-1 medications including semaglutide and tirzepatide.

Most adults with a BMI of 27 or higher and at least one weight-related condition—such as prediabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol—typically qualify. Our Las Vegas providers conduct a thorough medical evaluation at your first visit to confirm you are a safe and appropriate candidate before prescribing.

Both medications are self-administered as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, typically in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Our care team walks you through the injection technique at your first appointment and remains available for follow-up questions throughout your program.

Results vary based on starting weight, adherence, and lifestyle factors. Clinical studies show average weight loss of 15–20% of total body weight over 12–18 months. Most Modern Wellness Clinic patients in Las Vegas begin seeing measurable results within the first 4–8 weeks of treatment.

The most common side effects are nausea, constipation, and mild fatigue, especially during the initial dose-escalation phase. These typically resolve within a few weeks. Serious side effects are rare; your provider will review your full medical history and risk profile at your consultation.

Most insurance plans do not cover GLP-1 medications prescribed specifically for weight loss. Modern Wellness Clinic offers transparent all-inclusive pricing—your consultation, prescription, medication, and shipping are bundled at a flat monthly rate with no hidden fees.
