Tirzepatide – Medical Weight Loss Program

“Why can’t I lose weight?”

The age-old question on everybody’s minds. Neither exercise nor diet seem to do the trick, or if they do, it doesn’t last. Does that sound familiar? Trouble losing weight is an incredibly common struggle, and thanks to brand-new research new drugs are becoming available to help you lose weight and keep those pounds off. Tirzepatide is a once-weekly weight-loss injection that has been shown to help adults lose pounds and keep them off. If any of this resonates with you, come in for a free consultation on Tirzepatide in Stamford today!

What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a type of GLP1 medication. GLP1 is a hormone that naturally occurs in your body. The hormone is involved with regulating appetite, digestion, and blood sugar. When injected, Tirzepatide mimics the GLP1 hormone, prompting the secretion of insulin to bring down blood sugar levels and reduce appetite. This GLP1 medication is available in Stamford today at PURE Medical Aesthetics.

How does it work?

People who take this minimally-painful shot once a week, are expected to lose weight over the course of their treatment. This combined with basic lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, has been shown to create lasting weight-loss in some participants. Tirzepatide starts working within hours of injection, however visible changes usually don’t begin to appear for four weeks after beginning treatment. The best part of Tirzepatide is that it remains working in your body for several days after the injection, which is why it only needs to be injected once a week!

What are the side effects?

Tirzepatide often causes some temporary side-effects, largely related to your gut. They might include nausea, diarrhea, and stomach pain. Burping, heartburn, and flatulence are also possible. Around the injection site you may experience numbness, tingling, or itching.
