Tirzepatide can help people shed pounds as part of an overall program that also includes a healthy diet and exercise. Some people report that tirzepatide is the missing ingredient that they’ve been looking for, as they may have already been trying to eat right and exercise more, but results weren’t happening for them. Taken together, a healthy diet, more activity, and tirzepatide weight loss injections can help many people who haven’t been able to lose weight before.
On this page, you can find out what to expect with tirzepatide treatment. You can then schedule a personalized consultation with Pele Aesthetics by calling 678-576-7353 to learn more. We are a medical spa located just north of Atlanta, in Marietta, GA.
Tirzepatide targets pathways that control hunger and energy metabolism. It prompts insulin to be released, which helps control blood sugar levels and makes you feel fuller. It also slows down the emptying of the stomach, which makes you feel full for longer after a meal. Tirzepatide has been shown to lower hunger and food cravings by working on parts of the brain that control signals for hunger and fullness. Clinical trials have shown people who have updated their lifestyle with reduced calorie diets and increased exercise, along with Tirzepatide injections, were able to lose weight and keep it off.
Tirzepatide was approved on November 8, 2023, by the FDA for chronic weight management. It is in a group of drugs called GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists. They work like the body’s own hormones.
Tirzepatide is administered as a weekly injection in what is called a phased or stepped dosage treatment schedule. Thanks to its ability to slow down the digestive process and make the patient feel full on less food, tirzepatide can be part of a comprehensive weight management program that will include close monitoring by our medical team, so you have the best opportunity to lose weight and maintain your goal weight.
Our medical weight loss professionals at Pele Aesthetics will review the benefits of tirzepatide with you. It is typically approved for use in adults with weight issues, or weight loss issues and one or more health problems.

When compared to a placebo and other medications in clinical trials, tirzepatide was shown to help people achieve substantial weight loss. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, during a 72-week trial treatment period, people who were treated for weight loss with tirzepatide lost up to 22% of their initial body weight.
People who have used tirzepatide for weight loss report these benefits. Your experience may vary.
By adopting a protein, fruit and vegetable-rich diet and up to 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week, along with trizepatide, typically patients have found that they can get their body into a mode of burning calories and losing weight. Our medical team will consult with you about creating and following a weight loss program customized for your individual situation.
As part of a holistic weight loss regimen that includes a balanced diet and exercise, tirzepatide is administered as a weekly injection for a typical timeframe of 72 weeks. We will monitor your progress. After usually starting at 2.5 mg for four weeks, the dosage will typically increase to 5 mg per week, and can go up in increments up to a 15 mg maintenance dosage per week, depending on the individual.
Everyone is different, and you may have some, none, or all of these symptoms while being treated with tirzepatide:
Our medical team will track your progress and work with you to manage any unwanted side effects, if and when they occur.
Our team will consult with you on the weekly costs and the costs that you can expect over the course of your treatment. We will set the initial dosage cost, along with planning the course of treatment, which will see the weekly cost increase due to the dosage increasing over time, until the individualized maintenance dosage is reached.
