GLP-1 Program
Medical Weight Loss Support in San Diego
Weight loss can feel overwhelming when diet and exercise don’t seem to be enough. At Aesthetica Medical Spa San Diego, we offer a medically supervised GLP-1 Program that uses science-backed medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide to support sustainable weight management.
Our Hillcrest location, close to Mission Hills, North Park, Bankers Hill, and Downtown San Diego, provides a supportive, judgment-free environment where your health and comfort come first. This program is tailored to your body, lifestyle, and goals—not a one-size-fits-all approach
What Is the GLP-1 Program?
GLP-1 stands for glucagon-like peptide-1, a natural hormone your body produces after eating. It helps regulate blood sugar, slows digestion, and reduces appetite. Medications that mimic GLP-1 (such as semaglutide [Ozempic®, Wegovy®] and tirzepatide [Mounjaro®]) have been shown to support safe, effective weight loss.
Our program combines these medications with medical monitoring, lifestyle guidance, and ongoing support to help you reach and maintain your goals.
Benefits of the GLP-1 Program
- Supports sustainable weight loss
- Helps reduce cravings and late-night snacking
- Improves blood sugar regulation
- May reduce risk factors associated with obesity (high blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol)
- Personalized medical oversight from experienced providers
- Weekly or monthly check-ins to keep you on track
