Weight Loss

At Rose Med Spa and Wellness we offer more than just a weight loss program. We offer education, coaching, accountability, and resources to help you succeed once you are off the medication.

Rose MedSpa and Wellness offers Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, both in which belong to the class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists.
1. Semaglutide: This medication works by mimicking the action of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which is a hormone that helps to regulate blood sugar levels. Semaglutide stimulates insulin secretion and reduces glucagon secretion when blood sugar levels are high. It also slows down gastric emptying, which can help to control appetite and reduce food intake. Semaglutide is administered once weekly.
2. Tirzepatide: Tirzepatide is a newer medication that combines the actions of a GLP-1 receptor agonist with those of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonist. Like semaglutide, Tirzepatide stimulates insulin secretion and reduces glucagon secretion. Additionally, it also promotes weight loss by increasing satiety and reducing food intake. Tirzepatide is administered once weekly via injection.
Comparing the two:
Efficacy: Both semaglutide and Tirzepatide have demonstrated efficacy in reducing blood sugar levels and promoting weight loss. Tirzepatide, being newer, may have some advantages in terms of weight loss compared to semaglutide as on national average, people typically lose more on Tirzepatide.
Side Effects: Both medications are generally well-tolerated, but common side effects may include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. However, Tirzepatide may have a higher incidence of  gastrointestinal side effects compared to semaglutide.
Dosage: Both are administered once weekly via injection
Pricing: Semaglutide is a flat rate while Tirzepatide pricing increases with dosing Ultimately, the choice between semaglutide and Tirzepatide depends on individual patient factors, such as preference, tolerance of side effects, and treatment goals. It's important for patients to discuss with their healthcare providers to determine the most appropriate treatment option for them.

On a national average, patients taking Semaglutide, typically lose 6% of body weight over three months. On a national average, patients taking Tirzepatide typically lose 8% of body weight over three months. Results may vary depending on diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes.

It is important to speak to your medical provider to ensure this is right for you. You will be scheduled for a consultation and have a thorough discussion about your medical history. If after the consult, you and your medical provider agree this is a safe route for you, you will next be scheduled for a lab draw.

It is important to have a baseline of your labs pre treatment. We obtain a complete blood count (CBC), comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), basic thyroid panel, Hemoglobin A1C, vitamin B 12, and vitamin D levels.

Labs are submitted to insurance, typically there is no charge to patients for the lab draw.

No, insurance does not cover these medications through the MedSpa.
