Introducing Tirzepatide: A Revolutionary Weight Loss Medication
What is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is a groundbreaking medication designed to tackle weight loss. Combining the benefits of two hormones, GLP-1 and GIP, Tirzepatide regulates appetite, promotes feelings of fullness, and enhances insulin sensitivity, offering a comprehensive approach to weight management. Clinical studies have demonstrated its remarkable efficacy in reducing body weight and improving metabolic health, making it ideal for sustainable weight loss.
How It Works
Tirzepatide operates through a multifaceted mechanism rooted in its ability to mimic the actions of two key gastrointestinal hormones: glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). GLP-1 and GIP are naturally occurring hormones released by the gut in response to food intake. These hormones regulate glucose metabolism and appetite control. Tirzepatide acts as a dual agonist, activating both GLP-1 and GIP receptors.
By activating the GLP-1 and GIP receptors, Tirzepatide stimulates the release of insulin in response to meals, thereby reducing glucose levels and improving insulin sensitivity. Moreover, Tirzepatide slows down gastric emptying, prolonging the feeling of fullness and reducing food intake. These combined effects reduce your cravings for food and help you stick to a low-calorie diet for extended periods without hunger pangs, ultimately resulting in significant weight loss.
How is Tirzepatide administered?
Tirzepatide is typically administered via once-weekly subcutaneous injections, which you can easily self-administer or receive at JOLI Medispa. Our trained medical professionals will guide you on the proper technique to ensure accurate dosing and optimal results.
Product safety
Tirzepatide is considered safe when used under the supervision of healthcare professionals, like those at JOLI Medispa, for supervised weight loss. Common side effects include gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, as well as injection site reactions.
Most of the adverse effects stem from an increased intake of the medication and often diminish over time as your body adjusts. At JOLI Medispa, we gradually increase the dosage to allow your body to adapt to the medication and mitigate potential side effects. Our team closely monitors your progress and addresses any concerns to ensure optimal results.
Is Tirzepatide different from
Semaglutide?
Tirzepatide and Semaglutide are distinct medications with similar mechanisms of action. While both belong to the GLP-1 receptor agonist class, Tirzepatide combines GLP-1 and GIP effects, offering a dual agonist approach to weight loss. In contrast, Semaglutide only acts on the GLP-1 receptor. While both are effective in promoting weight loss, Tirzepatide’s dual effects may offer additional metabolic benefits. Your healthcare provider at JOLI Medispa can determine which medication aligns best with your weight loss goals.
Your
Consultation
Before starting Tirzepatide, you will undergo an initial consultation and lab review at JOLI Medispa. Two weeks before your consultation, you will receive a lab order to assess your baseline health parameters.
Our consultations are priced at $150, inclusive of a thorough evaluation and personalized guidance tailored to your specific weight loss goals and medical needs. Additional expenses may include the cost of the medication, which can vary based on your prescribed regimen, as well as a $40 shipping fee for the delivery of your medications to your doorstep.
Follow-up Appointments
Follow-up appointments at JOLI Medispa are essential for monitoring your progress and adjusting your Tirzepatide regimen as needed. These appointments allow our healthcare professionals to address any concerns, track your weight loss journey, adjust the dosage as needed, and provide ongoing support and guidance. The cost of a follow-up appointment is $75, in addition to the cost of your medication.
