What Are Medical Weight Loss Injections?
Medical weight loss injections use FDA-reviewed compounds, such as semaglutide, to help regulate appetite and support steady fat loss. Unlike over-the-counter supplements or generic programs, these injections are administered under the supervision of a licensed medical professional and adjusted based on how your body is responding.
Semaglutide works by mimicking a hormone that signals fullness, helping reduce calorie intake without extreme restriction. When combined with a structured care plan, patients typically see consistent, measurable progress over the course of weeks and months.
At Adorn Aesthetics, medical weight loss is not a standalone injection service. It is a complete program that pairs the medication with metabolic data tracking, nutritional guidance, and regular provider check-ins to support both short-term results and long-term health.
How We Approach Medical Weight Loss at Adorn Aesthetics
Our program is led by Deloris Evans, RN, and Tynisha Scruggs, FNP-C, who bring a combined 26 years of clinical experience to every patient interaction. Both providers have backgrounds in medical nursing and aesthetic medicine, which means they understand how body composition, hormonal health, and lifestyle factors intersect.
What sets our program apart is the data we collect at each visit. Rather than simply administering an injection and scheduling a follow-up, we track:
- BMI and body weight
- Body fat percentage and muscle mass
- Basal metabolic rate
These measurements let us adjust your program based on what your body is actually doing, not on a generic timeline. We use compounded semaglutide, which allows for dosing flexibility that commercial products do not always offer. Nutritional coaching and weekly check-ins are included in the program and taper to bi-weekly and monthly maintenance as you progress.

Semaglutide Pricing
GLP-1
Semaglutide is a weekly injectable GLP-1 medication. This type of medication can lower blood sugar nd raise insulin levels in people diagnosised with type 2 diabetes. An added benefit to this injection is it's ability to decrease appetite and signal fullness by slowing the process of food moving through the digestive tract leading to effective weight loss.
Tirzepatide
GIP/GLP-1
Tirzepatide does the same as Semagultide but has an added peptide, GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). GIP enhances fat metabolism by increasing fat burning and reducing fat storage. Some studies show a decrease in weight of 20%

Frequently Asked Questions about Medical Weight Loss Injections
Compounded semaglutide contains the same active ingredient as branded GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy, but it is formulated by a licensed compounding pharmacy rather than a pharmaceutical manufacturer. This allows for flexible dosing that can be customized to your program. Our providers will explain the differences and what to expect at your initial consultation.
This program is appropriate for adults who have a BMI of 27 or higher, particularly those with weight-related health concerns such as elevated blood pressure, blood sugar irregularities, or high cholesterol. A consultation is required before starting, and our providers will complete a health assessment to determine whether the program is a good fit.
A home injection option is available for select patients once they have been established in the program and are comfortable with the self-administration process. Your provider will determine eligibility and provide thorough instruction before transitioning to at-home care.
Most patients progress from weekly visits to bi-weekly and then monthly maintenance over the course of several months. The program length depends on your individual goals and how your body responds to treatment. There is no fixed endpoint — we adjust the plan as your needs evolve.
