At Lombardo Cosmetic Surgery, we understand that weight loss can be deeply personal—and sometimes, deeply challenging. When traditional methods like diet and exercise aren’t enough, it can be discouraging to keep pushing without seeing results. That’s where medical innovation can make all the difference.
We’re proud to offer tirzepatide, a cutting-edge injectable medication, as part of our physician-guided medical weight loss program. Designed to support safe, effective, and sustainable weight loss, tirzepatide represents the next generation of medical weight management—offering new hope for individuals ready to reclaim control over their health and their confidence.
What Is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is a revolutionary injectable medication that has been making waves in the medical community for its impressive weight loss outcomes. Originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, tirzepatide has shown remarkable results in helping individuals with or without diabetes shed significant weight when combined with a healthy lifestyle.
Unlike previous medications, tirzepatide is a dual-action therapy. It mimics the effects of two hormones: GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). These hormones naturally occur in the body and play key roles in:
- Regulating blood sugar levels
- Controlling appetite
- Slowing digestion
- Enhancing feelings of fullness
This dual-action mechanism sets tirzepatide apart, allowing it to tackle weight loss on multiple fronts for superior results.
How Does It Work?
Tirzepatide helps facilitate weight loss by acting on the brain and digestive system. After injection, it influences the body in the following ways:
- Reduces Appetite: Helps curb hunger and promote earlier satiety during meals.
- Delays Gastric Emptying: Keeps food in the stomach longer, contributing to a feeling of fullness.
- Stabilizes Blood Sugar: Reduces fluctuations that often trigger food cravings or energy crashes.
- Supports Fat Loss: Promotes gradual, consistent fat reduction over time.
When used under medical supervision, tirzepatide not only supports weight loss—it can also help reduce inflammation, improve metabolic health, and lower your risk of weight-related conditions like high blood pressure, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular disease.
Real Results, Backed by Science
Clinical studies of tirzepatide have yielded powerful results. In one landmark trial, patients without diabetes lost over 20% of their body weight on average—results that rival those of bariatric surgery, but with the convenience of a weekly injection and no downtime.
Here’s what participants experienced:
- Rapid early weight loss, with continued reduction over several months
- Reduced waist circumference and visceral fat
- Improved energy, mobility, and overall health
These outcomes aren’t just about aesthetics—they reflect a true transformation in how your body functions and how you feel each day.
A Personalized Approach to Medical Weight Loss
At Lombardo Cosmetic Surgery, we don’t believe in cookie-cutter programs. Every individual’s body, lifestyle, and health journey are unique. That’s why Dr. Lombardo and her team offer customized weight loss plans, tailored to your goals and supported by ongoing, personalized medical care.
Your weight loss program includes:
- One-on-one consultation: We start with a thorough medical evaluation to determine if tirzepatide is right for you.
- Tailored dosage and treatment plan: Based on your individual health markers, goals, and preferences.
- Ongoing supervision: You’ll have regular check-ins to monitor your progress, adjust your plan as needed, and ensure your treatment is working safely and effectively.
- Lifestyle support: Guidance on nutrition, hydration, movement, and sleep for total-body wellness.
This integrated approach helps you not only lose weight—but also develop habits that support lasting success and improved quality of life.
Who Is a Candidate for Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide may be an ideal solution if you:
- Have a BMI of 27 or higher with weight-related health issues (like high blood pressure or prediabetes)
- Have a BMI of 30 or higher, regardless of comorbidities
- Struggle with chronic weight gain or have hit a plateau with diet and exercise
- Are committed to making long-term lifestyle changes
- Are seeking a physician-directed, non-surgical approach to weight loss
During your consultation, we’ll review your medical history and discuss your goals to ensure that tirzepatide is both safe and appropriate for your unique needs.
What to Expect
Tirzepatide is administered via a simple, once-weekly subcutaneous injection. Most patients start with a low dose to minimize side effects and gradually increase as the body adjusts. Common, temporary side effects may include mild nausea or digestive changes—but these typically resolve as treatment progresses.
You can expect:
- Noticeable appetite control within the first 1–2 weeks
- Visible weight loss beginning around 4–6 weeks
- Steady, healthy fat loss—often 1–2 pounds per week
- Enhanced mood, energy, and body confidence
Our goal is to help you reach your target weight safely, gradually, and sustainably—so you feel empowered every step of the way.
