What is Tirzepatide?

At Nowak Aesthetics, we offer medically supervised treatments to help our patients work toward their health and aesthetic goals. Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injectable medication used for weight management. Results vary from patient to patient, and treatment is provided under the guidance of our medical team.

Benefits of Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is taken as a once-weekly injection, which some patients find more manageable than a daily medication. It works by helping to regulate appetite, which can make it easier to stay consistent with a weight management plan. Individual results vary. Our medical team will review whether Tirzepatide is appropriate for you and monitor your progress throughout treatment.

Candidates for Tirzepatide

Ideal candidates for Tirzepatide treatment include individuals who are struggling with obesity or overweight and have not achieved desired results with diet and exercise alone, are seeking a medically supervised weight loss solution, and are committed to making lifestyle changes to support long-term weight management. A thorough consultation with our medical team at Nowak Aesthetics will help determine if Tirzepatide is right for you.

Tirzepatide Procedure

The Tirzepatide treatment process begins with an initial consultation and assessment by our medical professionals. If deemed suitable, you will be prescribed Tirzepatide, administered via a once-weekly injection. Our team will provide detailed instructions on administering the medication and monitoring your progress regularly to ensure optimal results and address any concerns.

Tirzepatide Recovery

Since Tirzepatide is a medication rather than a surgical procedure, there is no traditional recovery period. However, patients may experience some mild side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, particularly at the beginning of treatment. These side effects typically subside as the body adjusts to the medication. Regular follow-ups with our medical team will help manage side effects and ensure effective treatment.

READ WHY
PEOPLE LOVE US

★★★★★

“I’ve always been on the slimmer side for most of my life, but everything changed during the COVID-19 pandemic when I had my second child. I wasn’t used to being heavier, and despite my best efforts with dieting and exercising, I struggled to lose the weight. I even underwent liposuction, which did help, but I found myself constantly battling my cravings, especially my sweet tooth. Chocolate became my daily obsession; if I didn’t satisfy that craving, it was best to avoid me altogether!

Before I knew it, I had crossed into the unhealthy overweight category and was at the heaviest I had ever been. When I first heard about Semaglutide, I was skeptical about what it could really do for me, but I figured I had nothing to lose by giving it a try.

To my surprise, just three months later, I had lost over 20 pounds! My body has transformed, and I can hardly believe it. My clothes were too loose, but even more importantly, my relationship with food changed dramatically. I still love food and consider myself a foodie, but now I have control over my eating habits instead of them having control over me. I no longer experience those relentless cravings or feel the urge to indulge in unhealthy junk foods. I now have the self-control and discipline to make healthier choices.

This weight loss journey has been truly transformational for me. Starting this process has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made and a wonderful gift I could give myself.”


Tirzepatide Results

Results with Tirzepatide vary from patient to patient and depend on your starting point, your treatment plan, and your consistency with lifestyle changes. Your provider will set expectations with you during your consultation and monitor your progress at regular follow-ups. Ongoing diet and exercise habits play a significant role in maintaining any results you achieve.

Tirzepatide Pricing & Consultation

Because peptide therapy is customized based on your goals, medical history, and the amount of medication recommended, pricing can vary significantly from patient to patient.

What to expect:

  • Most customized peptide treatment plans typically fall within the high hundreds to low thousands
  • A $225 consultation with a medical provider is required to determine the right treatment plan, and that fee is applied toward treatment if you move forward
  • Depending on your goals and health concerns, your provider may recommend lab work before starting treatment. Labs drawn in-office are $199

Wondering about exact pricing?

Most peptide protocols are not one-size-fits-all. Pricing depends on the specific peptide recommended, treatment duration, and the number of vials needed, which is why exact pricing is determined during your consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tirzepatide

What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injectable medication that mimics two gut hormones (GLP-1 and GIP) to help regulate appetite. It is prescribed for weight management under medical supervision. By helping reduce hunger, it can support weight loss as part of a medically supervised program.

How does Tirzepatide differ from Semaglutide?

Tirzepatide acts on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, while Semaglutide acts on GLP-1 alone. Because the two medications work differently, individual responses vary. Your provider can discuss which option may be a better fit for your goals and medical history during your consultation.

What are the side effects of Tirzepatide?

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and decreased appetite, especially during dose adjustments. These effects usually lessen over time as the body adapts. Gradual dose increases, proper hydration, and mindful eating can help minimize discomfort.

Is Tirzepatide safe?

Tirzepatide should be prescribed and monitored by a licensed healthcare provider. At Nowak Aesthetics it is used for weight management under medical supervision, with regular follow-ups to monitor how you are tolerating the medication and how you are progressing. Your provider will review your medical history and any potential risks with you before you begin.

How long is Tirzepatide treatment?

Treatment duration varies based on individual weight loss goals and response to the medication. Many patients stay on Tirzepatide for 6–12 months, with adjustments made as needed. Long-term success depends on maintaining a healthy lifestyle even after stopping the medication.
