Medical weight loss treatment

Often, obese patients apply changes in their lifestyle without having a solid knowledge of side effects or other health conditions that these changes can provoke.

In the short term it seems that these activities may provide the desired results. However, in many cases they go together with some undesired side effects (fatigue, irritability, etc.) or do not allow the patient to maintain the results achieved in the long term (the yo-yo effect). 

There are many conditions that can cause weight gain and difficulties losing excess weight:

Background information

The most common attempts to lose weight include ineffective diets, useless spa treatments, fat-breaking massages, fat-burning supplements and exhausting workouts with or without a trainer, etc. Some patients go further by considering dangerous remedies such as “miracle pills” that claim to help you lose weight while maintaining the same unhealthy lifestyle. In addition, some patients even consider such extreme procedures as surgery, liposuction or a gastric bypass. However, these can trigger many negative health consequences without providing a desired weight loss result. There are various controlled and safe methods to achieve the desired result. These methods can actually help you lose weight and improve not only appearance and self-esteem but also health and quality of life, contributing to healthy aging and longevity.

“The main aim of losing weight is to improve one’s health and quality of life. Thus, it is very important to do it safely and maintain it for years without triggering new health conditions. That is why the best approach is to follow certain medical protocols by applying changes gradually and adapting them individually. A single approach that fits everyone doesn’t exist.”
