Medical Weight Loss Injections in Newport News, VA

Losing weight is harder than it sounds. For many people, hunger and cravings are not a matter of willpower. They are driven by hormones the body produces naturally, and those hormones can work against even the most dedicated efforts. A medically supervised program using semaglutide or tirzepatide addresses that challenge at the source, with clinical guidance and ongoing support built in from the start.

At Numa Spa in Newport News, Virginia, we offer clinically guided weight loss programs using compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. Our team works with patients from across Hampton Roads, including Williamsburg, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Virginia Beach, and Foster, to create personalized treatment plans that support sustainable, meaningful weight loss. If you are ready to explore a smarter approach to weight management, call us at 757-794-8632 to schedule a consultation.

What Are Semaglutide and Tirzepatide?

Semaglutide and tirzepatide are injectable medications that work by mimicking hormones naturally produced in the gut to regulate appetite, blood sugar, and feelings of fullness. Both belong to a class of medications known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, with tirzepatide also targeting GIP receptors for a broader effect on metabolism. Originally developed to support blood sugar management in patients with type 2 diabetes, both medications consistently produced significant weight loss as an outcome across clinical research, leading to their widespread use in medical weight loss programs.

At Numa Spa, we offer compounded versions of both medications, prepared by licensed pharmacies and personalized to fit each patient’s health history and treatment goals.

How Do Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Work?

After eating, your gut naturally releases hormones that signal to the brain that you are full. For many people, this system does not work as effectively as it should, making it harder to feel satisfied after meals or resist cravings. Semaglutide and tirzepatide mimic these hormones, amplifying the fullness signal, slowing how quickly food leaves the stomach, and reducing the appetite signals that drive overeating.

The result is a reduction in caloric intake that does not rely on willpower or deprivation. When combined with lifestyle guidance and clinical support, these medications may help patients build the kind of steady, consistent habits that make results last.

What to Expect

Every weight loss program at Numa Spa begins with a comprehensive consultation with Tara Books, NP, our Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. Tara will review your health history, current medications, weight loss goals, and any relevant lab work to determine whether semaglutide or tirzepatide is the right fit for you. There is no one-size-fits-all approach here. Your program is built around you.

Semaglutide and tirzepatide are given as once-weekly injections just under the skin, and most patients self-administer them at home. Tara will walk you through the process at your first appointment and make sure you feel comfortable before you leave. Dosing starts low and increases gradually over several weeks. Most patients begin to notice reduced appetite within the first few weeks, with changes in weight becoming more apparent as the program progresses.

There is no downtime after each weekly injection, and most patients return to their normal routine right away. The most common side effects in the early weeks include mild nausea and minor digestive changes, which tend to improve as the body adjusts. Tara will check in with you throughout the program, adjust your dosing as needed, and help you build the habits that support your results over time.

Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Weight Loss Results

Clinical studies on semaglutide and tirzepatide have shown that patients can lose a meaningful amount of weight over several months of consistent use. Results vary from person to person and depend on factors like dosage, how consistently you follow the program, and the lifestyle habits you build alongside the medication. Patients who stay consistent and make changes to their diet and activity level alongside treatment tend to see the strongest results.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Medical weight loss with semaglutide or tirzepatide may be appropriate for patients who meet one or more of the following criteria:

A body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher
A BMI of 27 or higher with a weight-related health condition such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or elevated blood sugar
A history of difficulty losing weight through diet and exercise alone
No contraindications to GLP-1 receptor agonist medications, including no personal or family history of certain thyroid conditions or pancreatitis
A willingness to commit to a supervised program with regular follow-up appointments

A consultation is the most reliable way to determine whether you are a good candidate. Not everyone is appropriate for these medications, and a thorough health evaluation is an important first step.

What is the difference between semaglutide and tirzepatide?

Both medications mimic gut hormones to reduce appetite and promote fullness, but tirzepatide targets two hormone receptors while semaglutide targets one. Both are effective for weight management. The right choice depends on your health history and goals, which Tara will help determine during your consultation.

Will I regain weight after stopping the medication?

Weight regain is possible if lifestyle habits are not maintained after stopping. This is why our programs focus on building sustainable nutrition and movement habits alongside the medication, so patients are better positioned to maintain their results long-term.

How much does a weight loss program cost?

Program costs vary depending on which medication is prescribed, your dosing needs, and the length of your program. Numa Spa offers flexible financing through Cherry and complimentary consultations so you can understand all costs before moving forward with treatment.

Are semaglutide and tirzepatide safe?

Both medications have been studied extensively in large clinical trials and are widely used in medical weight loss programs. As with any medication, they carry potential side effects and are not appropriate for everyone. A thorough health evaluation before starting ensures they are a safe fit for you.

Tara made the entire process very comfortable on many levels. She explained the entire procedure and answered all of my questions. So far I am satisfied with everything that is going on, but it has only been one day. I will see in 2 weeks the full affect and move forward from that point. I definitely plan to keep coming as long as Tara is the nurse that I get to see. I have recommended Tara to a friend of mine and she plans on setting an appointment to see her.
