Backed by scientific research and delivered with personalized care, our medical weight-loss program is tailored to meet the diverse needs of our patients. Let’s explore the transformative power of injections and initiate a journey towards a healthier, happier you.
These medications for weight loss are ground-breaking and their effectiveness and transformative potential over any weight loss medications in the past are inspiring individuals worldwide to explore this innovative approach to weight management. These medications are the first solution, aside from major surgery, to boast meaningful weight loss. At Bellaboxx, we offer two options: Tirzepatide and Semaglutide.
What Are Medical Weight-Loss Injections?
The injections, Tirzepatide and Semaglutide, are pharmaceutical treatments administered via subcutaneous injection to aid in weight loss. At Bellaboxx, we offer these advanced injection options, known for their remarkable efficacy in facilitating weight loss and improving metabolic health.
Semaglutide injections belong to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. Tirzepatide is a GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist. Dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists are more potent than GLP-1 medications. These are naturally occurring hormones in the body that play a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels, appetite, and food intake. Administered by our experienced medical team, these injections target specific hormones and neurotransmitters in the body to aid in weight loss.
Tirzepatide and Semaglutide - Loss Therapy
Tirzepatide is a groundbreaking medication that has consistently been helping individuals achieve safe and effective weight loss. Like Semaglutide, Tirzepatide is also an FDA approved medication for weight loss.
Harnessing Advanced Science for Effective Weight Change
Injections offer a unique solution for individuals struggling to lose weight through conventional methods like diet and exercise alone. Clinical studies have demonstrated that patients treated with these injections achieve much greater weight loss compared to those following traditional diet and exercise programs.
By harnessing the power of advanced pharmaceuticals like Tirzepatide and Semaglutide, these injections target key hormones and neurotransmitters in the body, regulating appetite, promoting feelings of fullness, and ultimately facilitating weight loss. This comprehensive and scientifically-backed approach to weight loss can help patients in reaching their body goals.
Appetite Control - Weight Management
One of the primary benefits of injections is their ability to regulate appetite, reduce cravings and control blood sugar. Tirzepatide and Semaglutide injections facilitate significant weight loss in individuals with excess weight and/or who are suffering from medical conditions associated with excess weight. By targeting key hormones and neurotransmitters involved in appetite regulation, these injections promote fat loss and help our patients achieve their desired weight goals effectively.
Improving Metabolic Health
The effectiveness of injections extends beyond mere weight reduction. Research shows that these injections may lead to improvements in metabolic health, including:
- Better blood sugar control
- Reduced cholesterol levels
- Lower blood pressure
These benefits are particularly significant for individuals with weight-related conditions. This highlights the potential of injections to not only enhance physical appearance but also improve overall health and well-being.
Ideal Candidates for Injections
At Bellaboxx, Dr. Plaskon and Dr. Perkins carefully assess each patient to ensure they are a good candidate for Tirzepatide or Semaglutide injections. Ideal candidates for injections typically exhibit the following characteristics:
Unsuccessful Weight Loss Programs
Patients who have made previous efforts to lose weight through lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise but have been unsuccessful in achieving sustainable results. You are far from alone in your frustrating endeavors to lose weight and keep it off!

Frequently Asked Questions about our Weight Loss Services
Our concierge-style weight-loss program with the powerful weight-loss medications Tirzepatide or Semaglutide is focused on quality medical and personalized care. Our program includes monthly follow-up with your physician, direct access to your physician for questions and concerns, and access to our exclusive compounding pharmacy for the highest-quality injectable medications.
Tirzepatide is a peptide therapy weight loss drug that is administered by injection. It has long been used to help patients manage their type 2 diabetes. At the same time, it can boost weight loss in patients who otherwise struggle to achieve results with diet and exercise. Tirzepatide works by reducing appetite and controlling insulin levels, helping you feel fuller for longer periods of time. Tirzepatide is safe for both short and long-term use unlike many other weight loss options.
According to the NIH (National Institute of Health) studies, Tirzepatide is shown to be more effective than other drugs in reducing body weight.
We offer both Tirzepatide and Semaglutide. Both Tirzepatide and Semaglutide are very similar in the way they help with weight loss. They both work by replacing the GLP1 hormone in our body that tells us that we feel full. Tirzepatide also replaces our GIP hormone which is an additional way in aiding weight loss and increasing insulin release. Studies have shown that Tirzepatide is even more effective than Semaglutide for weight
loss. One added benefit of Tirzepatide is that it has a lower number of certain side effects including nausea. Our team will help you choose the right medication and treatment plan for you.
Your provider will need to know if you have any of the following conditions: Eye disease, vision problems, Kidney disease, Diabetes, Endocrine tumors, history of Pancreatitis, stomach problems, thyroid cancer, pregnant or trying to get pregnant, and/or breast-feeding.
Both men and women can benefit from injections, as this method is not gender-specific and can be effective for individuals of all genders. The effectiveness of these methods often depends on factors such as individual health status, adherence to treatment plans, and overall lifestyle habits rather than gender. Therefore, men and women alike can achieve significant weight loss and improve their overall health through personalized interventions.
Semaglutide is the generic form of the popular brand name known as OzempicTM and WegovyTM. Tirzepatide is the generic form of the brand name known as MonjauroTM or ZepboundTM. Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide medications belong to the same class of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists used for weight management. The primary differences between the two medications lies in their mechanisms of action and formulation.
Tirzepatide is a dual agonist targeting both the GLP-1 and GIP receptors, whereas Semaglutide primarily targets the GLP-1 receptor. Additionally, Tirzepatide may offer the potential for greater weight loss compared to Semaglutide due to its dual action on multiple hormonal pathways involved in appetite regulation and metabolism. Because of these differences, the dosing regimen and frequency of administration may vary between medications.
The timeline for experiencing noticeable results from medical weight loss injections may vary depending on individual factors such as starting weight, adherence to treatment, and lifestyle habits. However, many patients begin to see improvements in weight and metabolic parameters within the first few weeks to months of starting treatment.
Studies have shown that injections are much more effective than traditional weight loss drugs in achieving significant and sustainable weight loss. These injections target key hormonal pathways involved in appetite regulation and metabolism, offering a comprehensive approach to weight management.
