Non-Surgical Weight Loss Procedures to Consider in 2019
Non-Surgical Weight Loss Procedures That Deliver Results
Do you dream about being as thin as you were in high school so you can be healthier? Depending on your situation, you may not have to drop a significant amount of weight to enjoy some meaningful health benefits. Non-surgical weight loss procedures can help you get there.
If you weigh 200 pounds and lose just five percent of your weight, or 10 pounds, you may be well on your way to realizing some benefits. Every ten pounds of weight adds 40 pounds of pressure on your lower body joints, including your knees. By losing just 10 pounds, you can prevent excessive wear on your lower body joints and reduce the chances that you’ll develop arthritis later in life.
Do you have high blood pressure? Losing just five percent of your current weight can lower your blood pressure by as much as five points.
Lower blood pressure, less joint wear, and a reduced chance of developing arthritis are only a few of the many benefits you can enjoy by losing weight. If you’re eager to start enjoying these benefits, you may want to consider non-surgical weight loss procedures that can facilitate weight loss.
B-12 Injections
B-12 injections are effective at two things when it comes to your weight. They can help you maintain your weight after you drop some pounds and they can facilitate your weight loss as you’re losing weight. B-12 injections help your liver and gallbladder process fats more efficiently, which can prevent the fats from settling on other parts of your body such as your tummy.
Fat Freezing
B-12 injections are one of the non-surgical weight loss options offered by Dr. Weight Loss of Atlanta, and they can help prevent fat from being stored throughout your body. Fat freezing is yet another non-surgical weight loss procedure offered in our four Atlanta-area clinics. This procedure is designed to reduce fat on specific body parts.
During this procedure, fatty tissue is cooled to the point that it causes fat cells to die. The fat cells are then excreted once the fat freezing treatment is done.
Fat freezing is highly effective at producing visible results. Nearly 90 percent of patients experience a pleasing difference in how their clothing fits. Approximately 45 percent of patients witness results immediately after their treatment.
Adipex
“Adipex” is the brand-name for a type of phentermine drug. This medication is often used to treat obesity. Adipex works by increasing your heart rate so your body burns more calories when you’re at rest. Adipex is a stimulant that has the potential to suppress your appetite, which can further enhance your weight loss.
If you have an interest in taking Adipex to lose weight, it’s vital that you seek out a healthcare provider who has experience with this medication. That’s because you will have to be closely monitored while you take Adipex.
