Weight Loss Injections

Many things factor into your ability to lose weight, including your genes, medical history, and lifestyle habits. Losing weight with traditional dieting and exercising doesn’t always work. That’s why Ayanna Williams DNP, PMHNP-BC, of NIrvana Healthcare Services provides weight-loss injections to help curb appetite and turn on fat loss.

What are weight-loss injections? 

Weight-loss injections are also known as lipotropic injections. They contain compounds, or lipotropes, that assist your liver in removing fat and reducing your body’s production of fat. 

These injections speed up weight loss by boosting metabolic efficiency and helping you release fat deposits. Weight-loss injections also curb your appetite and improve your energy levels – so you burn more calories.

Weight-loss injections are part of a comprehensive weight-loss plan that includes nutritional support, exercise, and other lifestyle changes.

How do you administer weight-loss injections?

Dr. Williams or a trained technician places the injections into the fat that lies just underneath the skin in areas like your thighs, buttocks, arm, or belly. The injections discourage fat collection in these areas and help your liver better process fat. Usually, you commit to a series of injections. Your body absorbs the compounds quickly, and you’ll notice effects on your energy and appetite almost right aw

What ingredients are included in weight-loss injections?

Weight-loss injections contain a number of different nutrients and vitamins, as well as other compounds that help with weight loss. Injection ingredients may include:

• Vitamin B complex, including vitamin B12 and vitamin B6
• Deoxycholic acid
• Phosphatidylcholine
• Semaglutide
• Tirzepatide
• GLP 1 receptor agonist

Dr. Williams explains how each of these ingredients work to help you lose weight and how they complement healthy weight-loss habits, like exercise and diet. 

Why should I consider weight-loss injections?

When you have trouble losing weight on your own, weight-loss injections may be helpful.

They decrease food cravings, make you feel fuller quicker, and delay gastric emptying.

In turn, Deoxycholic acid and Phosphatidylcholine cause the fat cells in a specific area to expand, burst, and die. 

When combined with healthy lifestyle changes, you can achieve greater weight loss than you may without them. 

How soon will I see the results of weight-loss injections?

The injections help you adhere to your diet and exercise commitments. Your results depend on how closely you follow your diet and exercise plan. Dr. Williams helps you maintain accountability and stay positive through the weight-loss process.
