GLP-1 Weight Loss Injections
Am I a candidate?Weight is an intimate conversation. It’s personal in the sense that we each have an individual genetic makeup that informs it, as well as our own unique histories and relationships with our bodies. We all have personal goals for our overall well-being, each deserving of unique exploration and encouragement.
If support with weight loss and management is a personal decision you’re making, our clinicians at Renew have been diligently researching, vetting, and testing an innovative new treatment to support our patient’s goals.
GLP-1 injections are pharmacotherapies for the treatment of weight loss. Designed to be injected once a week in the stomach, thigh, or arm, it imitates a hormone in the body called glucagon-like peptide-1 that we naturally yield in our intestines. The treatment results in decreased hunger, prolonged fullness, and ultimately weight loss.
The imitation of this hormone impacts your body in two ways:
– It influences the hunger centers in the brain, specifically in the hypothalamus, curbing your hunger, cravings, and appetite.
– It prompts your stomach to empty more slowly, prolonging satiety or fullness after meals
Paired with the support and respect of our clinicians at Renew, the net result is safe and effective weight loss. We will be your partner as we honor and love what is— while also navigating and upholding your health and quality of life goals.

The GLP-1 Weight Loss Process
What to Expect
Consultation
When it comes to medical weight loss plans, it's important to customize the treatment plan specifically for you. Everybody is unique, which is why at Renew Wellness & Aesthetics we always start with a detailed consultation. Dr. Julie Shelley will get to know you, your medical history, and your individual weight loss goals. A simple blood draw will be taken at this appointment for lab work.
Treatments
At your second appointment, Dr. Shelley will complete a thorough lab review with the patient. If Renew's GLP-1 weight loss programs are a good choice for you, a custom 12-week treatment program will be developed for you. Each week, you will receive a GLP-1 weight loss injection, which is custom-compounded with Vitamin B6 to counteract any potential side effects. In addition, you will receive a weekly Skinny Shot with Vitamin B12. During this time, your provider will measure your progress and answer any questions you may have.
Results
Patient results vary based on their personal anatomy, goals, and treatment plan. Your provider will discuss a tentative timeline during your consultation.
