Personalised Medical Weight Loss Program in Singapore
Struggling to lose weight despite dieting and exercise?
At our medical aesthetic clinic, we offer a personalised weight loss program in Singapore designed to support sustainable fat loss through doctor-prescribed treatments.
Our program combines scientific expertise with evidence-based therapies, including prescription weight loss injections, oral medications, and lifestyle adjustments tailored to your individual health profile.
Every plan is supervised by a qualified medical doctor to ensure safety, effectiveness, and long-term success.
How Our Weight Loss Program Works
Our doctor-led weight loss program is based on a structured and medically sound approach designed for safe, sustainable fat loss. Every treatment plan is developed using clinical judgement, scientific evidence, and personalised patient data.
Individualised Planning No two patients are the same. We take into account your medical history, BMI, lifestyle, and goals to create a treatment plan that aligns with your unique needs.
Evidence-Based Therapies The program includes approved weight loss treatments such as GLP-1 receptor agonist injections and oral medications. These therapies work by reducing appetite, slowing gastric emptying, and improving satiety.
Holistic Medical Oversight Our clinic provides full medical supervision, ensuring that medications are prescribed safely, side effects are managed proactively, and your treatment plan is continuously optimised.
Long-Term Outcome Focus Beyond achieving weight reduction, our approach emphasises maintaining your results and improving overall metabolic health. This includes providing support for lifestyle changes and ongoing progress reviews.
Who Is Suitable for the Program
Our weight loss program is suitable for individuals who are medically overweight or struggling to achieve fat loss through diet and exercise alone. It is particularly helpful for those seeking a structured, doctor-guided solution to manage their weight safely and effectively.
General Suitability Criteria Include:
Adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 and above
Adults with a BMI above 27 who have weight-related medical concerns such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or diabetes
Individuals who have experienced repeated difficulty with weight management despite lifestyle efforts
Patients who prefer a clinically supervised, non-surgical weight loss solution
Each patient will undergo a full medical consultation and physical assessment to ensure that the treatment plan is appropriate and safe for their specific needs.
Key Benefits of Our Weight Loss Program
Our doctor-led weight loss program offers a structured, medical approach to reducing excess body fat while prioritising safety, sustainability, and long-term health.
Clinically Supervised Treatment All weight loss plans are overseen by an experienced medical doctor to ensure safe prescribing, close monitoring, and personalised adjustments based on your progress.
Evidence-Based Medications We use clinically approved weight loss injections and oral medications that are supported by research to regulate appetite, enhance satiety, and promote fat loss.
Customised to Your Needs No two patients are alike. Our program is individually tailored to suit your body composition, health goals, and lifestyle preferences for optimal results.
Focus on Sustainable Fat Loss Rather than quick fixes, our goal is steady, long-term fat reduction. With ongoing follow-up and guidance, we aim to support lasting weight control.
Improved Health Outcomes Patients often experience not just weight loss, but improvements in blood sugar levels, cholesterol, blood pressure, and overall metabolic health.

2. Personalised Prescription Plan You’ll receive a customised treatment strategy, which may include injections, pills, or a combination. All prescriptions are adjusted based on safety and effectiveness.
3. Regular Progress Reviews We monitor your response to treatment during scheduled follow-ups. This allows us to fine-tune dosages or switch therapies when needed.
4. Ongoing Support and Advice You’ll receive practical guidance on how to improve your eating habits, increase physical activity, and build sustainable routines.
5. Maintenance Phase As you near your goal weight, we help taper medications if appropriate and shift the focus to maintaining your progress for long-term results.
Treatment Options in Our Weight Loss Program
We offer a range of prescription-based treatments that support sustainable fat loss by regulating hunger, slowing gastric emptying, and improving blood sugar control. These medications are widely used in modern medical weight management and are prescribed based on individual health profiles, preferences, and safety considerations.
Weekly Semaglutide Weight Loss Injection This once-weekly injectable contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist clinically proven to reduce appetite, increase satiety, and promote gradual fat loss. Treatment typically begins at a low dose of 0.25mg and may be titrated up to 2.4mg per week. Patients often find this option convenient due to its weekly dosing and its established track record in both weight loss and metabolic regulation.
Daily Oral GLP-1 Tablet (Oral Semaglutide) This formulation delivers semaglutide in tablet form and is taken once daily on an empty stomach. It offers similar appetite-suppressing effects as the weekly injection and is well-suited for individuals who prefer oral medication over injectables. Despite its different route of administration, it shares the same active compound and therapeutic mechanism.
Weekly Dual GLP-1 and GIP Injection (Tirzepatide-Based) This newer class of treatment combines GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonists in a single weekly injection. Clinical studies have shown it to be more effective in reducing body weight than GLP-1 monotherapy. Dosing typically starts at 2.5mg and can be gradually increased to 15mg per week. It is especially beneficial for individuals who may not have responded sufficiently to single-hormone options.
Tailored Prescribing Based on Medical Suitability All treatment plans are individualised. During your consultation, we assess your BMI, medical history, lifestyle, and treatment preferences to determine the most appropriate option. Each prescription is doctor-supervised, evidence-based, and adjusted as needed to ensure safety, tolerability, and efficacy.
Expected Results From a Personalised Medical Weight Loss Program in Singapore
Understanding the likely outcomes of a doctor-supervised weight loss program helps patients set realistic goals and track their progress throughout treatment.
Typical Weight Loss Outcomes with GLP-1 and GIP Agonists
Most patients undergoing a personalised medical weight loss program that includes GLP-1 and/or GIP receptor agonist medications—such as semaglutide or tirzepatide—can expect a gradual and clinically meaningful reduction in body weight.
Clinical studies have shown:
GLP-1 Agonists (e.g. semaglutide): Patients typically achieve an average weight loss of 5% to 10% of their initial body weight within the first 3 to 6 months of treatment when combined with lifestyle modifications.
Dual GLP-1/GIP Agonists (e.g. tirzepatide): Clinical trials indicate that some patients may experience even greater weight loss, often exceeding 15% of initial body weight over a 6-month period, with higher percentages possible after one year of continuous treatment.
Improvements in Overall Health
Beyond weight reduction, patients often see improvements in blood sugar control, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and reduced risk for conditions such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and fatty liver. These health benefits contribute to overall wellbeing and long-term disease prevention.
Timeline for Noticeable Results
Most individuals notice changes in appetite and satiety within the first few weeks. Clinically significant weight loss is usually visible within the first three months, with optimal results achieved at the six-month mark and sustained with continued medical supervision.
Individual Variability
Every patient’s weight loss journey is unique. Results may vary depending on the medication prescribed, individual metabolism, adherence to treatment, dietary choices, and physical activity levels. Ongoing follow-up visits allow for continuous optimisation and adjustment of the treatment plan.
Comparing Prescription Weight Loss Medications in Singapore
With several prescription weight loss medications available, understanding their differences helps patients make informed, doctor-guided choices.
May suppress appetite, reduce fat absorption, or alter metabolism (depending on medication class)
Variable (often less than injectables)
Once daily tablet
Alternative for patients unable or unwilling to use injections
How to Choose the Right Medication
The best choice depends on your weight loss goals, medical profile, and lifestyle preferences. Your doctor will recommend the most appropriate treatment after a thorough assessment.
Is This Weight Loss Program Safe?
Safety is a key priority in every treatment we offer. Our program is designed for medically appropriate candidates and is administered under the supervision of a licensed doctor.
Doctor-Prescribed and Regulated Only individuals who meet the eligibility criteria—such as having a BMI above 27 with health risks or above 30—will be prescribed treatment. All medications used are clinically approved for weight loss.
Thorough Screening Process Before starting the program, you will undergo a full health evaluation to assess your medical history, current health status, and any contraindications. This ensures the program is both safe and appropriate.
Side Effect Monitoring and Management We proactively monitor for any side effects, especially during the initial phase of treatment. Patients are advised on what to expect and how to manage any mild symptoms like nausea or appetite changes.
Ethical and Evidence-Based Care We do not promote crash diets or unregulated supplements. Every aspect of the program is grounded in medical science and focuses on patient well-being.
How to Maintain Weight Loss After Completing the Program
Sustaining weight loss after a successful medical program requires ongoing commitment and personalised strategies tailored to each individual’s needs.
Importance of Continued Lifestyle Habits
Maintaining your weight loss relies heavily on preserving the healthy eating and physical activity habits established during your program. Regular, balanced meals, portion control, and an active lifestyle help prevent weight regain and support long-term health.
Ongoing Medical Supervision and Support
Periodic follow-up consultations with your doctor can help monitor progress, address any challenges, and provide timely interventions if weight regain occurs. These check-ins are an opportunity to reassess your health markers and adjust your maintenance plan when necessary.
Behavioural and Nutritional Support
Some patients benefit from ongoing access to nutritional counselling or behavioural therapy. Support from a healthcare team can reinforce positive habits, identify triggers for overeating, and help set realistic, achievable goals.
Medication Tapering or Maintenance
In certain cases, your doctor may recommend tapering medications gradually or continuing a lower maintenance dose to help prevent rebound weight gain. This decision will be individualised based on your progress and risk factors.
Preventing Weight Regain
Staying accountable through regular self-monitoring (e.g., keeping a food diary, tracking weight) can help detect early signs of weight regain. Early intervention and proactive strategies can prevent minor setbacks from becoming long-term challenges.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Does the Medication in Your Weight Loss Program Work?
Our program includes GLP-1 and dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists that help reduce appetite, delay gastric emptying, and promote a longer feeling of fullness. These mechanisms support lower calorie intake and steady fat loss. Common medications prescribed include Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Mounjaro, and Zepbound, all of which are supported by global clinical evidence for weight management.
What Is the Difference Between Weekly Injections and Daily Tablets?
Weekly injections such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound are administered once a week and provide long-lasting appetite control. Daily tablets like Rybelsus contain oral semaglutide and offer a similar effect in pill form. The decision depends on your preferences, medical suitability, and lifestyle habits.
How Soon Can I Expect to See Weight Loss Results?
Most patients begin to notice reduced hunger and smaller portion sizes within the first two to four weeks. Significant weight loss typically becomes more noticeable after eight to twelve weeks, especially when using weekly injectables such as Wegovy or Mounjaro. Results may vary based on metabolism, adherence, and lifestyle choices.
Are the Medications Used in This Program Safe?
Yes. All medications, including Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Mounjaro, and Zepbound, are approved for medical use and prescribed only after a full consultation. Side effects such as nausea, bloating, and appetite changes are usually mild and temporary. Your treatment will be closely monitored to ensure both safety and comfort.
Who Is Suitable for This Weight Loss Program?
This program is suitable for adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 and above, or a BMI of 27 and above with conditions such as high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, or prediabetes. Your doctor will assess your eligibility and recommend a suitable treatment plan.
Do I Need to Change My Diet While on the Program?
While dietary restrictions are not mandatory, patients are encouraged to adopt healthier eating habits to maximise results. GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 treatments naturally reduce appetite, making it easier to make better food choices. Our doctor may offer practical guidance on portion control and balanced nutrition.
Can I Exercise While on This Program?
Yes, incorporating physical activity can further support your weight loss goals. Even moderate activity such as walking or light resistance training can complement the effects of medication. Your doctor may suggest a suitable activity plan based on your fitness level and health status.
What Happens After I Reach My Target Weight?
Once your target weight is achieved, we will assess whether continued medication is necessary. In many cases, doses of Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro may be tapered or discontinued under supervision. A maintenance strategy will be provided to help sustain your results long-term.
How Much Does the Program Cost?
The cost depends on the specific medication prescribed, dosage, and duration of treatment. During your consultation, we will provide a detailed breakdown of costs for options such as semaglutide or tirzepatide-based treatments.
Can I Switch Between Oral and Injectable Options?
Yes, switching between daily oral tablets and weekly injectables may be possible depending on your treatment response and preference. Some patients start with Rybelsus (oral semaglutide) before transitioning to injectables like Wegovy or Mounjaro for more potent or longer-acting results.
Is It Safe to Take These Medications Long-Term?
Long-term use of GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 treatments is generally considered safe when prescribed and monitored by a doctor. Many patients continue with lower maintenance doses once target weight is reached. Periodic reviews will determine whether ongoing use is needed.
Can I Take These Medications If I Don’t Have Diabetes?
Yes. All medications offered in this program can be used for weight management in non-diabetic patients. Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Mounjaro, and Zepbound are all prescribed in weight-specific dosages and are suitable for individuals without diabetes who meet the BMI and health criteria.
What If I Experience Side Effects?
Mild side effects such as nausea, fullness, or bloating are common during the first few weeks and typically subside with time. Our doctor will provide advice on how to manage symptoms and may adjust your dose or switch medications if needed. Serious side effects are rare but will be addressed promptly if they occur.
Can I Stop the Medication at Any Time?
These medications can be stopped if needed, but sudden discontinuation may result in the return of appetite and gradual weight regain. It’s best to consult with your doctor before stopping, so a tapering plan or transition to a maintenance regimen can be safely implemented.
How to Choose the Best Weight Loss Program Clinic in Singapore
Choosing the right clinic can make a significant difference in the safety, success, and sustainability of your weight loss journey. With many clinics offering generic slimming packages, it’s important to select a medically regulated provider that offers personalised care.
Here’s what to look for in a trusted weight loss program clinic in Singapore:
Doctor-Supervised Treatments Ensure that the clinic is run by qualified medical doctors who are experienced in prescribing GLP-1 or dual hormone weight loss medications. Treatments should be based on your individual BMI, health status, and medical history.
Evidence-Based Medications A reputable clinic should offer only clinically proven treatments, including GLP-1 receptor agonists and oral semaglutide. Avoid programs that promote unverified supplements or off-label therapies without proper medical evaluation.

Clear Communication and Ongoing Support Look for a clinic that offers honest information, realistic expectations, and continuous medical support throughout the program. Regular reviews and progress tracking are essential for long-term success.
