Medical weight loss injections directly target excess fat storage while resetting impaired metabolism in patients with BMI over 25. These treatments reduce health risks including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and stroke by addressing the root causes of weight gain: metabolic dysfunction, low energy, and increased appetite.
At LC Medical Aesthetics, Dr. Lanna delivers customized medical weight loss injection protocols that work from within, producing significant, measurable results when traditional methods fail. Our team specializes in these advanced weight management solutions, providing comprehensive care throughout your weight loss journey.
Weight fluctuations are normal, but when does weight gain signal a health concern? Two key indicators help identify potentially harmful weight: BMI (Body Mass Index) and waist circumference.
Your BMI—calculated by dividing your weight in pounds by height in inches squared—provides a snapshot of your body fat relative to your frame. Meanwhile, waist circumference reveals dangerous visceral fat that surrounds vital organs. Men with waistlines exceeding 40 inches and women over 35 inches face significantly higher risks of heart disease and diabetes, even with normal BMI.
While these measurements offer valuable insights, they're just starting points. Your doctor may also monitor:
These comprehensive evaluations provide a clearer picture of your metabolic health, as some people with normal BMI may have metabolic disorders, while some overweight individuals maintain healthy metabolism.
Avoid drastic weight loss methods that deprive your body of essential nutrients and disrupt metabolic balance. Instead, LC Medical Aesthetics by Dr. Lanna offers medical weight loss injections—a scientifically advanced approach that works from within by balancing hormones and optimizing bodily functions.
Many factors lead to unintentional and unhealthy weight gain, like consuming highly processed and sugary food, having a sedentary lifestyle, or getting less sleep. The body stores up more fat than it could burn, with poor nutrition to boost energy production and sustain overall functions. This leads to many health risks, like:
This is why overweight and obese patients must start a holistic weight management plan to burn excess fat and provide nutrients for their bodies. But leading a healthy lifestyle may not be so simple because of having an impaired metabolism.

Weight management may be difficult for overweight and obese patients because of poor metabolism, leaving them with less energy and an increased appetite. Medical weight loss injections are a treatment option for weight loss as they help balance the hormones in your body.
Medical weight loss injections are typically glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists that help the body produce more insulin and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Incretin hormones signal the pancreas to release glucagon and insulin. Glucagon increases your blood sugar levels, while insulin reduces it by prompting its conversion to energy. As an incretin-mimetic medication, these injections mimic the incretin function to stimulate GLP-1 receptors. They promote insulin production while hindering glucagon release, preventing high blood sugar levels. For weight loss, this lowers the appetite and slows down gastric emptying.
Medical weight loss injections are incretin mimetic medications that help boost insulin production in your body, helping overweight and obese patients lose weight. These solutions have several effects on the body that all work to set you up for success in weight management, like:
These are some of the effects of medical weight loss injections on the body, resulting in weight management. Patients considering this treatment option must consult their healthcare providers to avoid adverse reactions.
Many patients suffering from obesity find it difficult to start their weight loss journey because they're starting with an impaired metabolism resulting in low energy. They also tend to feel hungry, craving sweets and processed food. This is because of the improper function of hormones that send signals to the brain.
Medical weight loss injections help patients lose weight by boosting insulin production. They're one of the most helpful weight management options, beneficial for overweight and obese patients because of the following:
