Tirzepatide Weight Loss
in South Bay
Dual-action GLP-1 and GIP therapy. Clinically supervised, pharmacy-grade, results-focused.
Important: Tirzepatide is a prescription medication. Treatment is provided only after an in-person medical evaluation by a licensed provider who confirms clinical appropriateness. Online purchases, if any, are prepaid credits for consultation and potential treatment. If you are not a candidate, you will receive a full refund or the same credit may be applied to another eligible service.
Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, the first of its kind to target two metabolic pathways simultaneously. This dual action produces stronger appetite suppression and more significant weight reduction than single-pathway treatments in clinical studies. At Skin Works, every program is physician-supervised, LegitScript certified, and sourced exclusively from FDA-registered licensed pharmacies.

How the Program Works
Free Consultation
Meet with a licensed provider in clinic. We review your health history, discuss your goals, and determine if tirzepatide is appropriate for you. No pressure, no commitment.
Medical Evaluation and Prescription
If you are a good candidate, your provider writes a prescription and explains your starting dose, what to expect, and how to manage any side effects.
Dosing, In-Clinic or Take-Home
Most patients start in clinic with full provider oversight. Once established on your protocol, your provider may clear you to administer doses at home with supplied syringes and instructions. Same medication, same pharmacy, same price.
Ongoing Progress Reviews
We track your results with check-ins, photos, and measurements. Your plan evolves with you, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is tirzepatide different from semaglutide?
Tirzepatide targets two receptors, GLP-1 and GIP, while semaglutide targets only GLP-1. This dual mechanism may support stronger appetite regulation and greater weight reduction for some patients. Your provider will recommend the right option based on your health profile.
Is tirzepatide FDA approved for weight loss?
Tirzepatide is FDA approved under Zepbound for chronic weight management and under Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes. Your provider will determine the appropriate formulation for your situation during your consultation.
What results can I expect?
Results vary based on medical history, dose, consistency, nutrition, activity, and follow-up. Your provider will help set realistic expectations and adjust your plan as your body responds.
How often do I need to come in?
Most patients begin with regular in-clinic visits for dose administration and monitoring. Once established on your protocol, your provider may clear you to administer doses at home with supplied syringes and instructions at no additional cost.
Is tirzepatide safe?
Side effects are typically gastrointestinal and may be more noticeable during dose changes. Your provider reviews your full medical history before prescribing. All treatment decisions are made by a licensed clinician after an in-person evaluation.
Can I switch from semaglutide to tirzepatide?
Some patients may be candidates to transition. Your provider will evaluate your history, current dose, tolerance, goals, and contraindications before recommending a safe starting point.
