How to Qualify for Semaglutide in Orange Count

Your First Step to Sustainable, Medically Supervised Weight Loss
Semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy) is changing the way we approach fat loss—especially for those struggling with stubborn belly fat. At Plump Medical Spa, we help patients across Orange County qualify for this cutting-edge treatment through personalized, physician-led programs.

💉 What Is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics the body's natural appetite-regulating hormone. It helps reduce hunger, control blood sugar, and burn visceral fat—without the crash diets or unsustainable plans.
