TIRZEPATIDE

TIRZEPATIDE INJECTIONS FOR WEIGHT LOSS

Tirzepatide is a groundbreaking medication belonging to a new class known as dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. This unique combination mimics two natural hormones involved in blood sugar control and appetite regulation, offering a powerful and comprehensive approach to weight management.

Tirzepatide works by helping your body release more insulin, lower blood sugar, and slow gastric emptying, which leads to prolonged feelings of fullness and reduced appetite. When combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, Tirzepatide can result in significant and sustained weight loss while also improving metabolic health.

WHAT DO THE STUDIES SHOW?

Clinical studies have shown remarkable results with Tirzepatide. In major trials, participants using Tirzepatide achieved up to 22.5% average body weight reduction, one of the highest results seen among weight loss medications to date.

Tirzepatide is FDA-approved under the brand names Mounjaro® (for type 2 diabetes) and Zepbound™(for chronic weight management). It has proven to be a safe and effective option for individuals who are overweight or obese, particularly when paired with lifestyle modifications.

At Itsy Aesthetic, our medical professionals tailor the dosage to your individual needs. Treatment typically begins at 2.5 milligrams weekly and is gradually increased depending on your body’s tolerance and results. The injections are administered subcutaneously (under the skin) with an ultra-fine needle. The first dose is given in-office, and patients receive hands-on education on proper self-administration for home use.

WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF TIRZEPATIDE INJECTIONS?

Side effects are generally mild to moderate and similar to other GLP-1–based medications. They may include nausea, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal discomfort, fatigue, or dizziness. Starting at a low dose and gradually increasing helps minimize these effects.

Our providers closely monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed to ensure that you experience the best results with the fewest side effects possible.
