The Skinny Jab 
Medically Supervised Weight Loss with Semaglutide
At SW1 Clinic, we understand that weight loss is not simply about calorie counting. It involves a complex interplay of hormones, metabolism, genetics, and lifestyle. For patients struggling with excess weight, we offer Semaglutide injections as part of a clinically supervised, evidence-based medical weight management program.
Semaglutide is a once-weekly, FDA-approved injectable medication for long-term weight loss in adults with obesity, or those who are overweight with related medical conditions such as hypertension, insulin resistance, or PCOS. It works by mimicking GLP-1, a gut-derived hormone that enhances satiety, reduces appetite, and slows gastric emptying — resulting in lower food intake and gradual, sustained fat loss.
What to Expect
- Weekly subcutaneous injections, administered at home after medical clearance
- Stepwise dose titration to reduce gastrointestinal side effects
- Comprehensive doctor consultation prior to initiation
- Regular reviews to monitor progress, adjust dose, and provide accountability
Who is it for?
Semaglutide is indicated for adults with:
- BMI ≥30 (obesity), or
- BMI ≥27 with at least one weight-related comorbidity
It is not meant for short-term or aesthetic weight loss. Medical evaluation is mandatory to assess suitability.
Combination Therapies for Enhanced Results
At SW1 Clinic, we combine internal metabolic solutions with external body contouring to optimise fat reduction and body definition:
Onda Body Toning (Coolwaves® Technology)
Onda uses microwave-based Coolwaves® to selectively target subcutaneous fat while also improving skin laxity and cellulite. In a 2020 clinical trial (Rossi et al., J Cosmet Dermatol), participants showed significant fat layer reduction and visible skin tightening after just 4 sessions. It is ideal for patients wanting to tone areas like the abdomen, thighs, and flanks.
CoolShape uses controlled cooling to crystallise and destroy fat cells without surgery or downtime. Based on a systematic review published in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine (2015), cryolipolysis reduces fat layer thickness by 20–25% per treatment area, with minimal side effects. It is a non-invasive option to debulk stubborn pockets of fat unresponsive to diet or exercise.
Real, Sustainable Results
The Skinny Jab is not a fad. It is a medically supervised strategy for individuals whose weight has become resistant to traditional efforts. By targeting the biological drivers of weight gain and pairing it with cutting-edge body sculpting, we help our patients achieve a healthier, more confident version of themselves — safely and sustainably.
