Tirzepatide Benefits
Tirzepatide gets a lot of attention for its impressive weight-loss results, but it offers a range of other health benefits, too.
Here are some of the other ways tirzepatide can improve your well-being:
Improved Blood Sugar Control
Tirzepatide helps regulate blood sugar levels and may even help some people reduce or eliminate the need for other diabetes medications.
Reduced Risk of Heart Problems
Studies have shown that tirzepatide can lower the risk of major cardiovascular events like heart attack and stroke, especially in people with type 2 diabetes.
Increased Energy Levels
As you lose weight and your body functions more efficiently, you’re likely to experience a noticeable boost in energy levels.
Improved Mood
Weight loss and better health can have a positive impact on your mood and overall sense of well-being. Many people report feeling more confident and happy as they see results with tirzepatide.
Consultation
First, we’ll schedule a one-on-one consultation for you at either our Santa Monica or Oxnard location. You’ll meet with a qualified Younique provider who will take the time to understand your weight-loss goals, discuss any concerns you have, and review your medical history. This is your chance to ask questions and learn if tirzepatide is the right fit for you.

What are the potential side effects of tirzepatide?
Like any medication, tirzepatide can have side effects. The most common ones are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and stomach pain. These are usually minimal and go away on their own. More serious side effects are possible, so it’s important to talk to us about any concerns.
Who is a good candidate for tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide may be a good option if you:
- Have struggled to lose weight with diet and exercise alone
- Have a BMI of 27 or higher (or 25 with weight-related health problems)
- Are committed to making lifestyle changes to support your weight loss
It’s important to have a consultation with a medical professional to determine if tirzepatide is right for you.
How long does it take for tirzepatide to suppress appetite?
This varies from person to person, but many people start to notice a decrease in appetite within the first few weeks of starting tirzepatide.
How much weight can I expect to lose with tirzepatide?
Clinical trials have shown that people taking tirzepatide can lose a significant amount of weight — often more than with other weight-loss medications. However, everyone’s different. Your weight loss will depend on factors like your starting weight, lifestyle, and how well you stick to your treatment plan.
How long will I need to take tirzepatide?
The duration of tirzepatide treatment varies. It depends on factors like your weight loss goals, eating habits, and dosage. Tirzepatide is safe for long-term use, and many patients use it for over a year. We’ll determine the right plan for you.
Is tirzepatide covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage for tirzepatide varies. Our team can help you navigate the insurance process and explore potential coverage options.
Is bloodwork required before starting tirzepatide?
No, we don’t require bloodwork for tirzepatide treatment. Most of our patients can start treatment the very same day as their consultation.
How do I get started with tirzepatide at Younique?
It’s easy! Reach out to us to schedule a consultation at either our Santa Monica or Oxnard location. We’ll take it from there. You can book online or give us a call.
