Maintaining a healthy diet and joining an exercise program may not be suitable for everyone, especially when it comes to adapting and fitting in any lifestyle changes by having physical activity or calculating food intake into your busy schedule. To have a lot on your plate may be a factor of hindrance in your weight loss journey, hence, the idea of removing stubborn body fat using an alternative weight loss plan is certainly underway. Weight gain is frustrating for several reasons, not the least of which is the fact that we often do not understand what drives our bodies to store too much fat. Therefore, it is essential for you to have an understanding that losing weight requires patience and perseverance, particularly when it comes to lowering the entire amount of your total body weight. Weight gain is already a pesky subject, weight regain is certainly something that we all want to avoid. We have tried a variety of approaches to lose weight, such as going on a low-fat diet, reduced calorie diet, regular exercise and even a lifestyle change. Nevertheless, there isn't really much progress! Because losing weight is so difficult, practically for overweight people, facing an uphill battle on a daily basis on weight reduction to achieve their weight loss goals. In addition, unsettling health issues including high blood pressure, cardiovascular events and other adverse effects always loom in the background. It might be difficult to lose weight, but there are a lot of various strategies that people can use to give themselves the best chance of success. Having said that, it is essential to keep in mind that not all methods of weight loss are risk-free for every individual. Consult with your primary healthcare professional before beginning any kind of new diet or exercise plan to ensure that it will be safe and effective for you to follow. This will ensure that you are making the most informed decision possible. This is especially important to keep in mind if you already suffer from any pre-existing medical condition or are already taking any other medicines. The very last thing you want is for your actions to end up having a negative impact rather than a positive one. Therefore, if you are considering attempting a new treatment for weight loss, you should make an appointment with your primary care physician first. They will be able to provide you with the soundest guidance on whether or not it is the option that you should go with.

How Do Weight Loss Medications Work?
Many different mechanisms are involved in the weight loss processes that can be facilitated by prescription weight loss medications and over-the-counter medications for the treatment of obesity. For instance, taking certain medication can either suppress appetite or speed up the rate at which you feel full. There is a possibility that other prescription medications will inhibit your body's capacity to absorb fat from the food you eat.
Patients who suffer health difficulties associated with being overweight or obese may be prescribed weight loss medications. These medications are intended to help patients lose weight. The body mass index (BMI) is a statistic that medical professionals use to determine whether you could benefit from taking weight-loss medication. If you are an adult with your disease, your healthcare provider may recommend treatment to address your condition through your BMI number such as:
· Overweight: BMI of 25 to 29.9 · Obese: BMI of 30 or higher

Lose Weight Medications Available in Australia
People who are seeking to reduce weight frequently find that weight reduction medicines obtained through a doctor's prescription have the best results. Along with a nutritious diet and consistent physical activity, these drugs help promote weight loss. There are four different weight loss drugs that are widely accessible for use in Australia.
When patients have lost weight and there has been an increase in the appetite hormones that encourage weight recovery, medications may also be able to assist with preventing patients from regaining that weight.
They might also be useful for patients who have previously undergone weight loss surgery such as bariatric surgery but have since put on some of the weight they lost.
Always consult with one of our bariatric specialists or a pharmacist on your appropriateness for weight loss drugs, including the benefits and negative effects of these medications. These are the four different weight loss medications that are available in Australia:
1. Liragulatide (Saxenda™)
Liraglutide is taken as a daily injection. Liraglutide is 97% identical and acts the same way as one of the natural hormones in your body called GLPL-1, which is responsible for fullness. GLP-1 decreases feelings of hunger and satisfies cravings by acting on the brain to make a person feel fuller and more pleased after eating, acting as an appetite suppressant. As a result, maintaining a nutritious diet without experiencing feelings of hunger is made much simpler. Because it is a hormone produced in the stomach, the majority of its negative side effects are related to the gut (like nausea, constipation, reflux or diarrhoea).
2. Orlistat (Xenical™)
In the digestive tract, orlistat works by inhibiting an enzyme known as lipase. Because of this, the body is able to absorb up to 30% less fat. A decrease in the body's capacity to absorb fat contributes to a person's success in losing weight. The remaining fat will go through the digestive tract and be expelled from the body. When using this tablet, the best course of action is to stick to a diet that is low in fat. Some of the adverse effects of consuming an excessive amount of fat include having bowel movements that are greasy and/or leaking intestinal contents.
3. Contrave (Bupropion and Naltrexone)
In February of 2019, Contrave became available for use as one of the weight loss medications for treatment of obesity in Australia. This drug for weight loss works by targeting a specific region of the brain that is responsible for controlling cravings and reducing hunger. In the same way as with other medications, it is recommended that Contrave be taken in conjunction with a diet with restricted calories and regular exercise. Patients taking Contrave may experience a variety of typical adverse risks, including nausea, vomiting, constipation, stomach discomfort, headache, and dizziness. These symptoms can occur in combination or individually.
4. Duromine™ (Phentermine)
More than 50 years, Duromine (phentermine) has been introduced to the consumers of the market. It is a great way to control your hunger while also acting as a modest stimulant in the body. This results in the individual taking these tablets experiencing a reduction in their hunger. While you are on Duromine, your doctor will need to watch you carefully and check your blood pressure on a regular basis. Though the benefits of weight loss seem attractive, there are also adverse effects of taking this drug. Duromine side effects include dry mouth, trouble sleeping, high blood pressure, fast heartbeat and increased heart rate. And, in extremely rare cases, psychosis and hallucinations are some of the possible adverse side effects that might occur with taking Duromine.

Alternative To Taking Weight Loss Medication
Though having to take any weight loss medication seems promising on the weight loss side effects aside from reducing more calories. It may entirely tweak your lifestyle changes, hindering you from achieving a healthy life.
Health specialists in the world, including Australia, will advise against using Orlistat due to the unpleasant side effects, and they will also advise against using conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) due to the negative effects it has on metabolic health. Phentermine is also warned due to serious consequences on treating overweight patients as phentermine may cause hallucinations and psychosis.
According to clinical studies, there are supplements that may be helpful as an alternative for these medicines, and are available in the market in Australia, such as caffeine and green tea extract. Although these supplements may be of some use, the impacts they have are, at best, minimal. You don't even need to take a supplement because all three can be found in their natural forms in a variety of meals and beverages.
Finding a weight that is healthy for you, concentrating on mindful eating, making use of safe calorie deficits, and increasing the amount of physical exercise you get are still the greatest strategies to lose weight, and these methods work more effectively than all of the diet pills together. All of these can also be done at a faster rate compared to the medicines in the market and can be done in the comfort of your own neighbourhood here in Australia.

In light of the foregoing, our body sculpting technology may be able to assist you in removing any bothersome and tenacious fat layers without the requirement of any injections or concerning medications!

In contrast to weight reduction drugs, the results won't be visible to us for a considerable amount of time. Due to the fact that every body responds differently to prescribed medication, there are occasions when it is completely ineffective. The high-performance laser energy that was discussed earlier is used in our S6 treatment, which allows it to penetrate deeply into the fat layers and destroy any stored fat cells. Not only does it dissolve the fat layers, but it also boosts metabolism, which in turn allows the lymphatic system to wash away the dead fat layers! Because of this, the targeted fat areas on your body can see a reduction in fat and an increase in firmness just by applying this technique.
In order to provide some insight into the functioning of this treatment, it can be broken down into a few straightforward phases. The treatment begins with a short consultation with an experienced aesthetic therapist about your body conditions and the collection of data pertaining to your body. After the consultation, the therapist will proceed with the treatment by positioning the treatment equipment over the area of your body where you want to see the most fat reduction. After that, the aesthetician will give permission for the laser energy to be discharged, which will initiate the destruction of the fat layer and start the process of fatty acid catabolism in the fat cells.
Our aesthetician will perform a massage onto the treatment area in order to speed up the lymphatic drainage using the pneumatic technology that was used. This massage will not only make you feel more relaxed and comfortable, but it will also help to speed up the process of removing fat via lipid metabolism.
Following this, the fat layer in the targeted location will diminish as a result of the fat being metabolised, resulting in a smaller and more slender body shape for you. In addition, there will be no drooping skin as a result of this treatment for weight loss, so your body will keep its firmness, and the treatment will even assist tighten the skin after it has been completed!
