Clinical Weight Loss
At Zi Medspa, we recognize that weight loss is a personal and often challenging journey. Traditional diet and exercise may not always yield the desired results, which is why we offer innovative weight loss solutions featuring FDA-approved medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide. These groundbreaking treatments assist in achieving significant and sustainable weight loss by regulating appetite and metabolism.
Our process
Semaglutide Weight Loss Treatment Semaglutide is a medication that mimics the hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which regulates appetite and food intake. It helps reduce hunger, increase feelings of fullness, and enhance your body’s ability to burn fat, leading to effective weight loss.

Tirzepatide Weight Loss Treatment Tirzepatide is a dual-action medication that mimics both GLP-1 and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) hormones. This dual mechanism not only controls appetite but also improves insulin sensitivity, offering an even more comprehensive approach to weight management.
