Physician-led obesity medicine care in Fort WorthWhat is Compounded Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that works by mimicking a natural hormone your body produces after eating. It signals fullness to your brain, reducing appetite and quieting the constant thoughts about food that sabotage most diet attempts.
How options are selected: Highland discusses FDA-approved semaglutide options first when appropriate. A compounded formulation may be considered only for a documented patient-specific clinical need when applicable requirements are met. Compounded semaglutide is not FDA-approved, and approved-product trials do not establish its expected outcomes.
Educational background: The semaglutide molecule was originally developed for type 2 diabetes and is sold under the brand names Ozempic® (for diabetes) and Wegovy® (used for chronic weight management). Highland Longevity does not dispense these brand-name products. Clinical trials of brand-name semaglutide showed an average of 15% body weight loss over 68 weeks — these studies inform how the active ingredient is understood.
At Highland Longevity, DEXA may be used to estimate changes in fat mass and lean mass so nutrition, resistance training, medication, and follow-up can be reassessed over time.
How Semaglutide Works
Three mechanisms combine to create sustainable appetite control.
Appetite Suppression
Activates brain receptors that reduce hunger signals, making it easy to eat smaller portions naturally.
Extended Satiety
Slows gastric emptying so you feel full for hours after eating, eliminating between-meal snacking.
Reduced Cravings
Quiets the "food noise"—those persistent thoughts about eating that derail traditional diets.
Clinical Trial Results
Trials of FDA-approved semaglutide products inform clinical discussion but do not establish outcomes for Highland's compounded formulation.

Semaglutide for the Colleyville Community
Colleyville has evolved from rural farmland into one of the most sought-after addresses in DFW—a community where families choose to put down roots, where neighbors still wave from their front porches, and where the pace of life feels manageable despite proximity to everything the Metroplex offers. The Village at Colleyville anchors a charming downtown, and GCISD schools consistently rank among the state's best.
But maintaining an active lifestyle in Colleyville becomes harder when stubborn weight doesn't respond to diet and exercise. Many residents have tried everything—gym memberships, nutrition programs, even other medical interventions—only to find the weight returns. That cycle of effort and disappointment is exhausting.
Semaglutide offers a different approach. By working at the biological level—reducing appetite, extending fullness, quieting food cravings—it makes maintaining a caloric deficit feel manageable instead of grueling. DEXA may be used to estimate changes in fat mass and lean mass so the plan can be reassessed over time. Highland Longevity is just 14 minutes from Village at Colleyville via Highway 26 North—close enough for convenient appointments without the congestion of heading toward Dallas.
