Tirzepatide Medical Weight Loss

Tirzepatide Medical Weight Loss in Beverly Hills

If you’re feeling frustrated by years of dieting, calorie counting, and workouts that never seem to pay off, you’re not alone—and you’re not out of options. At Sykes Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, we offer Tirzepatide medical weight loss, a science-backed, physician-led treatment that’s helping patients lose weight effectively and sustainably.

Tirzepatide doesn’t just suppress your appetite—it works with your body’s natural metabolic signals to reduce cravings, control blood sugar, and promote long-term fat loss. For many patients, this once-weekly injectable is a life-changing solution that delivers real results where other programs fall short.

What Is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a next-generation weight loss medication originally developed for type 2 diabetes. It’s a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, meaning it mimics two natural gut hormones that regulate appetite, insulin production, and digestion. By combining these actions, Tirzepatide helps patients feel full sooner, stay satisfied longer, and eat less without trying.

Unlike stimulant-based weight loss methods, Tirzepatide works with your body to create meaningful change. In clinical trials, patients without diabetes lost up to 20% of their body weight, delivering results that surpass many other FDA-approved treatments.

Tirzepatide is now FDA-approved for weight management under the brand name Zepbound, and it’s available as part of a personalized treatment plan here at Sykes Plastic Surgery.

Benefits of Tirzepatide in Beverly Hills

Tirzepatide is more than just a weight loss tool—it’s a full-body reset. Patients who commit to the program often experience:

  • Significant fat loss, especially in the abdomen and upper arms
  • Improved blood sugar levels, insulin sensitivity, and reduced inflammation
  • Decreased hunger and fewer cravings, especially for high-carb foods
  • Better energy, mobility, and mood as weight comes off steadily
  • No surgery or extended downtime, with a weekly at-home injection

 

At Sykes Plastic Surgery, every Tirzepatide program is customized to your needs, with medical oversight, lifestyle support, and regular progress monitoring.

What to Expect During the Treatment

Your Beverly Hills Tirzepatide weight loss journey begins with a one-on-one consultation. After reviewing your medical history and goals, we’ll determine your starting dose and order baseline bloodwork to track metabolic markers.

The typical treatment process includes:

  1. Weekly self-administered injections (we’ll teach you how to do this safely)
  2. Gradual dose titration over the first few weeks to minimize side effects
  3. Ongoing check-ins with our team to monitor weight, appetite, and energy levels
  4. Nutritional guidance to support your results without restrictive dieting
  5. Support and adjustments based on your progress and comfort

Tirzepatide is easy to integrate into your routine and is designed to work over time, not overnight.

Am I a Candidate?

Tirzepatide in Los Angeles may be a strong option if you:

  • Have a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27+ with conditions like high blood pressure or PCOS
  • Have struggled with stubborn weight despite diet and exercise
  • Want a non-surgical solution to long-term weight loss
  • Are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing certain thyroid conditions
  • Are ready to commit to a guided, physician-led treatment plan

During your consultation, we’ll determine whether Tirzepatide is the right fit or if an alternative approach would better suit your needs.

Recovery Process

Because Tirzepatide is a non-surgical treatment, there’s no traditional recovery period. However, some patients experience mild side effects as their body adjusts.

The most common side effects include:

  • Nausea
  • Constipation
  • Fatigue or mild headaches
  • Temporary changes in appetite

These usually improve as your dose stabilizes. Our team will work with you to manage any discomfort and adjust your dosage if necessary to help keep you feeling your best.

When Will I See My Beverly Hills Tirzepatide Results?

Most patients notice changes within the first 4 to 6 weeks, including less hunger and improved portion control. By the three-month mark, meaningful weight loss and body composition changes often become visible.

On average, patients lose 1 to 2 pounds per week, with total loss depending on your starting point, lifestyle, and consistency. Because Tirzepatide affects multiple metabolic systems, results are not only visible, but they’re also more sustainable long-term.

FAQ

Beverly Hills Tirzepatide Medical Weight Loss FAQs

Yes. Tirzepatide is FDA-approved for chronic weight management under the brand name Zepbound. It can be prescribed to adults with a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. It must be used as part of a medically supervised program that includes lifestyle changes, such as improved nutrition and increased activity.

Tirzepatide has shown exceptional results in clinical trials. Patients using the highest dose lost up to 20.9% of their body weight over 72 weeks—more than many other FDA-approved weight loss medications. Success depends on dosage, consistency, and lifestyle habits, but most patients experience steady, sustainable fat loss over several months.

The cost of tirzepatide treatment can vary based on dosage, insurance coverage, and pharmacy pricing. Without insurance, monthly costs can range from $900 to $1,300. However, at Sykes Plastic Surgery, we work closely with patients to explore savings programs, insurance eligibility, and affordable care options. A consultation will help determine your total estimated cost and plan.

Weight loss with tirzepatide begins gradually, with most patients noticing reduced appetite and early weight changes within the first 4 to 6 weeks. On average, patients lose 1 to 2 pounds per week, with continued progress over several months. Unlike crash diets, tirzepatide supports slow, steady fat loss that’s easier to maintain long term.
