Weight Loss Injections
Weight loss injections can contribute towards a healthier lifestyle for appropriate patients. As a practicing GP, Dr. Jess has seen the improvements to peoples lives when these weight loss injections are used correctly and safely.
Our Nottingham clinic has seen a recent increase in patents using weight loss injections such as Wegovy, Mounjaro and Ozempic. These patients have been experiencing skin laxity and sagging as a result of their weight loss injection treatment and have been looking for a non-surgical solution to help them restore firmness. This is where our Sofwave treatment can help. With both Sofwave and Pure Impact, we have a full system approach to supporting with skin laxity and muscle loss from weight loss injections. Our patients have seen fantastic, painless results which have helped to restore their body confidence and enhance their result.
How can Sofwave help with skin laxity after weight loss injections?
Sofwave is an FDA-approved treatment. Using next-generation ultrasound technology, this system stimulates collagen production in the mid-dermis layer of the skin which will support with improving skin laxity and lifting sagging skin. Both of which are common side effects of using weight loss injections, or indeed loosing a substantial amount of weight through any method.
Sofwave is a comfortable treatment for those looking to improve skin laxity as it precisely targets tissue requiring action, whilst preserving the skin’s surface. It is suitable for all skin types too.
How can Sofwave help with muscle tone after weight loss injections?
Sofwave’s Pure Impact treatment system is a great solution to help tone and strengthen muscles, fast!
Wireless electrodes work simultaneously to stimulate multiple muscle groups and areas of the body, to deliver effective, superior muscle strengthening and body toning without surgery.
Pure Impact is the next generation of advanced energy-based EMS technology. This ground-breaking treatment achieves unparalleled results. There is nothing else like it on the market – no more tangled wires or uncomfortable belts.
Here are some of the most common questions we are asked about supporting skin laxity and muscle tone after using weight loss injections.
Q: Does having Pure Impact for muscle toning after weight loss injections hurt?
A: Not at all! The treatment is very comfortable, and we adjust the intensity based on your individual tolerance. It is a comfortable treatment and you can relax with a magazine, or even keep working online if you have a busy day! During the treatment, you will feel some muscles contractions. Tingling in the areas treated may be noticed for up to a few hours after treatment
Q: How long will it take to see a difference from Pure Impact on muscle tone after using weight loss injections?
A: We recommend 4 biweekly sessions (twice a week) or 4 weekly sessions, depending on your schedule/ availability. The improvement in muscle toning, strengthening of the muscles and firming will increase following each session. You should adhere to a healthy lifestyle to maintain the results overtime.
Q: Is it safe to have Sofwave skin toning treatments after taking weight loss injections?
A: Absolutely. The innovative technology bypasses the skin’s surface, heating the mid-dermal tissue at 1.5mm. Unlike other devices, there is no damage to deeper underlying structures, and no risk of unwanted fat loss. You can have Sofwave while on a current medical weight loss regime also.
Q: How many Sofwave facial treatments will I need to start seeing results after using weight loss injections?
A: Typically, only a single session is needed with Sofwave. However, we do see some severe skin laxity with our weight loss injection clients. In this case you may benefit from one additional treatment, depending on your body’s physiological response to the initial session. While many patients see some immediate skin tightening, the effects really begin to kick in as collagen and elastin begin to regenerate. Expect gradual improvement as your skin becomes tighter, smoother and lifted. The full tightening effects are typically seen after 6 months.
