Semaglutide: The Peptide Everyone is Raving About

Are you struggling to safely and effectively lose weight and achieve your New Year's resolution? Semaglutide, also known as Ozempic or Wegovy, maybe the solution you're looking for. This prescription medication is the newest peptide that everyone is talking about, including Kim K and Elon Musk. At About Face Aesthetics & Wellness Medical Spa in Union & Columbia, SC, we offer Semaglutide as a safe and effective option for weight loss.


So how does Semaglutide work? It mimics the hormone GLP-1, which helps regulate appetite and metabolism. By making you feel full after eating less food, Semaglutide promotes fat loss and increases metabolism, leading to weight loss.


Originally trialed as a treatment for diabetes in 2014, Semaglutide was later approved by the FDA for weight loss in June 2021. Studies have shown that Semaglutide is effective at helping people lose up to 20% of their baseline body weight, as well as improving cardiometabolic risk factors and increasing physical activity.


Although Semaglutide does have some side effects, such as mild to moderate gastrointestinal disorders and headaches, these are typically temporary and less serious than the negative effects of obesity. However, it is not suitable for everyone, including those with certain medical conditions or a history of certain types of cancer.


If you're interested in starting your weight loss journey with Semaglutide, our team at About Face Aesthetics & Wellness Medical Spa can help. During your complimentary online consultation with our nurse practitioner, you'll need to provide a medical history, thyroid panel (TSH), and diabetic A1C test. You can request these through your primary care physician. We'll then schedule an injection education appointment, where you'll learn how to administer Semaglutide and receive your vial of the medication.


Don't let weight loss struggles hold you back any longer. Contact us today to book your consultation and get started on your journey with Semaglutide.

Are you looking for a safe, effective, and non-invasive way to improve your skin's appearance? Look no further than About Face Aesthetics & Wellness in Union, SC, and our Virtue RF system. As a leader in aesthetics, we are proud to offer the newest generation of radio-frequency microneedling - the Virtue RF system, which is the first-ever microneedling platform! The Virtue RF system is FDA-cleared and uses advanced technology to stimulate the natural production of collagen in the skin, while targeting unwanted scars, fine lines, and wrinkles. Our team of aesthetic experts is trained to use all three hand pieces available with the Virtue RF system - the SmartRF, the DeepRF, and the ExactRF - to provide customized treatment that caters to your specific needs. The SmartRF hand piece is ideal for treating fine lines and wrinkles, as well as improving overall skin texture and tone. The hand piece uses bipolar radio-frequency technology to target the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin elasticity. The DeepRF hand peice is designed to target deeper layers of the skin, making it ideal for treating sagging skin and deeper wrinkles. The hand piece uses multipolar radio-frequency technology to deliver targeted heat to the deeper layers of the skin, promoting collagen production and skin tightening. The ExactRF hand piece is perfect for treating smaller areas of the face, such as around the eyes and mouth. The hand piece uses fractional radio-frequency technology to deliver heat energy to the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture and tone.

The hand piece uses bipolar radiofrequency technology to target the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin elasticity. The DeepRF hand piece is designed to target deeper layers of the skin, making it ideal for treating sagging skin and deeper wrinkles.

The ExactRF hand piece is perfect for treating smaller areas of the face, such as around the eyes and mouth. The hand piece uses fractional radio-frequency technology to deliver heat energy to the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture and tone. So, how does Virtue RF work? The treatment uses radio frequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin fibers. This results in tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. The treatment is quick and painless, with no downtime required. Patients may experience mild redness and swelling following the treatment, but this typically resolves within a few hours. Our Virtue RF system is also capable of taking your treatment to the next level by including PRP and Stem cells from Anteage or Xeosomes. These products provide additional rejuvenating benefits to the treatment, helping to enhance the results even further. PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is derived from your own blood and contains growth factors that stimulate collagen production and promote tissue regeneration. Stem cells from Anteage or Xeosomes, on the other hand, are derived from stem cells and contain growth factors that help to heal and repair damaged skin. With the Virtue RF system, we can combine these powerful products with our advanced technology to provide you with the best possible results. The treatment is virtually pain-free and requires little to no downtime, allowing you to get back to your daily activities with minimal disruption. In conclusion, if you're looking for a safe, effective, and non-invasive way to improve the appearance of your skin, Virtue RF at About Face Aesthetics & Wellness is the perfect solution. With advanced technology, customized treatment options, and the SmartRF, DeepRF, and ExactRF hand pieces, we're committed to providing you with the best possible results.
