What is Wegovy injection?
Wegovy® contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist used for long-term weight management in eligible patients. It acts on appetite-regulating pathways to reduce hunger, increase fullness and support a lower food intake.
The weekly injection works alongside nutrition and physical activity. At Allure, your programme begins with a medical assessment and continues with treatment monitoring, dose guidance and support as included in your chosen programme.
CLINICAL SUITABILITY
Is it right for me?
For adults, common weight-management criteria are a BMI of 30 or above, or a BMI of 27 or above with at least one weight-related health condition.
Your licensed UAE doctor reviews your full history, current medicines and previous treatment before prescribing. Meeting a BMI threshold alone does not guarantee suitability.
RESULTS IN PUBLISHED STUDIES
How much weight could I lose?
STEP 1 · 68 weeks
14.9%
Average reduction in starting body weight with semaglutide 2.4 mg at 68 weeks.
In STEP 1, adults with obesity, or overweight with a weight-related condition, without diabetes lost an average of 14.9% of their starting body weight with weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg and lifestyle support, compared with 2.4% with placebo and lifestyle support.
The 14.9% figure includes participants regardless of treatment discontinuation or rescue treatment. It is commonly rounded to 15%. Your own progress can differ: dose, treatment duration, tolerability, nutrition and activity all matter. A study duration is not a fixed treatment course for every patient.
Percentages refer to starting body weight. Study averages are not individual predictions. Separate trials differ in participants, duration and analysis, so these figures should not be read as a direct head-to-head comparison.
How Wegovy treatment is introduced
The usual weekly dose pathway starts at 0.25 mg and increases gradually over 16 weeks towards 2.4 mg. This gradual introduction helps the body adjust. Our programme follows the dose prescribed for you by your treating doctor.

ONE TEAM, THROUGHOUT
Your care, led by Allure.
Allure specialises exclusively in medical weight management. We manage your programme from assessment and treatment planning through progress reviews, nutritional guidance and aftercare. Your prescribed treatment and dose decisions are made by licensed UAE clinicians.
Your chosen programme sets the level of nurse and dietitian support. If your needs change, we review the next step with you, including medication maintenance, gastric balloons or bariatric surgery where clinically appropriate.
Side effects and important safety information
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, indigestion and abdominal discomfort. Symptoms can be more noticeable when treatment starts or the dose changes. Tell your clinical team about persistent or troublesome symptoms so the treatment plan can be reviewed.
Seek urgent medical help for severe persistent abdominal pain, especially if it spreads to the back, signs of a serious allergic reaction, or severe vomiting and dehydration. Serious complications can include pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. Tell your clinician before surgery or anaesthesia, and disclose all medicines, including insulin or sulfonylureas.
Discuss pregnancy planning with your doctor before treatment. Semaglutide should be stopped at least two months before a planned pregnancy. It is not used for weight loss during pregnancy; breastfeeding and other suitability factors require clinical review.
This overview does not replace the patient leaflet or individual clinical advice.
How much does Wegovy injection cost in Dubai?
Your programme cost depends on the prescribed treatment, dose, duration and level of clinical and nutritional support. We explain the medication, delivery and care included before you begin, and discuss any additional services separately.
Contact Allure for an individual programme quote following assessment. Medication supply and treatment remain subject to clinical suitability and availability.
Nutrition and maintenance
Use the treatment period to establish meal structure, adequate nutrition, activity and habits you can maintain. Our dietitian-supported programmes help you work through appetite changes and make practical adjustments.
Before stopping or changing medication, discuss a maintenance plan with your clinician. Follow-up can help identify weight regain early and review the next step.

In STEP 1, adults with obesity, or overweight with a weight-related condition, without diabetes lost an average of 14.9% of their starting body weight with weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg and lifestyle support, compared with 2.4% with placebo and lifestyle support.

The cost depends on your prescribed medication, dose, treatment duration and support level. Our team explains the programme inclusions and provides an individual quote after assessment. Additional services are discussed separately.
Both contain semaglutide, but they have different product indications and dose pathways. They should not be substituted or used together without prescribing advice. Your clinician chooses the appropriate product and dose for your needs.
Not automatically. The dose pathways show the usual introduction stages, but your prescribing clinician considers response and side effects before making each change. Never change your dose yourself.
Allure manages your assessment, treatment plan and follow-up. The monthly and structured programmes on this page set out the nurse, dietitian, monitoring and delivery support included. Choose your programme with our team and review treatment with your licensed prescribing doctor.
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, indigestion and abdominal discomfort can occur. Contact your team if symptoms persist or are difficult to manage. Severe persistent abdominal pain, serious allergic symptoms or severe dehydration require urgent medical care.
Medication is used alongside nutrition and physical activity. Balanced meals, adequate protein and hydration, appropriate portions and habits you can sustain remain important. Dietitian consultations are included in Premium programmes as set out above.
Suitability depends on your medical and family history, other medicines and current health. Tell your doctor about pregnancy, breastfeeding or pregnancy plans, pancreas or gallbladder problems, significant digestive symptoms, kidney problems, diabetes treatment and any history of medullary thyroid cancer or MEN2. Do not start treatment without a prescribing assessment.
Do not combine GLP-1-based treatments or change between medications without your prescribing doctor’s advice. Doses and formats are not directly interchangeable. Bring a full list of medicines and supplements to your assessment.
Weight management is often ongoing. Your clinician reviews benefit, tolerability, progress and your goals when discussing continuation, maintenance or stopping. Weight regain can occur after stopping, so an agreed plan and sustainable habits matter.
Discuss alcohol with your clinical team, particularly if you have nausea, dehydration, diabetes or other health conditions. Alcohol can worsen digestive symptoms and add calories; advice should reflect your health and prescribed treatment.
