Weight loss shots are a medical treatment designed to help reduce appetite and promote healthy weight management. These injections work by mimicking naturally occurring peptide hormones that regulate hunger and blood sugar levels. With weekly administration, the treatment helps patients feel full faster, decreases food cravings, and supports more balanced eating habits, enhancing the effectiveness of lifestyle changes like diet and exercise.
