A Doctor-Led Approach to Weight Management
At Saranghae Aesthetics, we offer medically supervised weight management treatments for individuals who may benefit from prescription injectable therapy. Our approach combines doctor assessment, personalised treatment, nutrition and lifestyle guidance to support sustainable weight management.
What Are Weight Management Injections?
Weight management injections are prescription medications that work on hormone pathways involved in appetite and metabolism. Depending on the medication prescribed, they may help regulate appetite, increase feelings of fullness, and support reduced food intake.
Treatment is prescribed based on your individual health profile, weight-management goals, and medical suitability. It should be used alongside appropriate dietary and lifestyle changes rather than as a standalone solution.
Who May Benefit?
Medical weight management may be considered for adults who:
- Have obesity
- Are overweight with certain weight-related health conditions
- Have struggled to achieve or maintain weight loss through lifestyle changes alone
- Are looking for a medically supervised approach to weight management
Our doctor will assess your BMI, medical history, current medications, lifestyle, and weight-management goals before determining whether prescription treatment is appropriate.
Key Benefits
- Helps regulate appetite and food intake
- Supports reduced calorie intake
- Can support clinically meaningful weight reduction in appropriate patients

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do weight management injections work?
A: Certain prescription injections act on hormone pathways involved in appetite regulation and metabolism. They can help increase feelings of fullness and reduce appetite, which may support reduced food intake and weight loss.
Q: How often are the injections given?
A: The treatment schedule depends on the medication prescribed and your individual treatment plan. Your doctor will explain the dosing schedule and how the treatment should be administered.
Q: Are there any side effects?
A: Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, constipation, and abdominal discomfort can occur, particularly during treatment initiation or dose escalation. Your doctor will discuss potential side effects and what to do if they occur.
Q: Is everyone suitable for weight management injections?
A: No. These are prescription treatments and are not suitable for everyone. Your doctor will review your medical history, medications, and individual risk factors before prescribing treatment. Certain medical conditions and medication combinations may make treatment unsuitable.
Q: Will I need to continue the treatment permanently?
A: Weight management is an ongoing process, and treatment duration varies between individuals. Your doctor will monitor your progress and determine whether treatment should be continued, adjusted, or stopped based on your response and goals.
Q: Do I still need to diet and exercise?
A: Yes. Prescription weight management treatment is intended to complement a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity rather than replace healthy lifestyle habits.
