What is Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss is a physician-supervised program designed to help patients achieve and sustain a healthy weight through a customized approach. Unlike generic diet plans or fleeting fads, our medical weight loss program is tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs, health profile, and personal goals for lasting success.
At T-Spa by Tutela Plastic Surgery we combine expert medical guidance with proven strategies, including FDA-approved medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide, to help you not only look your best but also feel your best.
The Benefits of Medical Weight Loss
A medical weight loss program offers a host of advantages over traditional methods, thanks to its personalized, science-backed approach. At T-Spa, we start with a thorough health evaluation to identify any underlying factors that might impact your weight.
With ongoing support from Dr. Tutela and our expert team, you’ll receive a plan uniquely crafted for your needs, backed by close monitoring to ensure your progress and well-being. This approach significantly increases the likelihood of achieving your long-term weight loss goals while improving your overall health and reducing weight-related risks.
How Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Work in Medical Weight Loss
Both semaglutide and tirzepatide are breakthrough medications that play a powerful role in weight loss. Depending on your medical history, goals, and lifestyle, we’ll determine which is best for you.
Semaglutide
Originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics the hormone that helps in regulating appetite. It helps reduce hunger, prolongs feelings of fullness, and reduces cravings. Since 2021, it has been FDA-approved for chronic weight management when combined with healthy lifestyle choices.
Tirzepatide
A newer medication, tirzepatide acts as both a GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist. Research indicates that it may be even more effective than semaglutide for some individuals. In clinical studies, tirzepatide has shown an average weight loss of 14-18% among participants, making it a game-changer for patients with obesity or significant weight concerns.
