How It Works
The Science
GLP-1 receptor agonists work by mimicking a natural hormone that regulates appetite and blood sugar. They slow gastric emptying, reduce hunger signals in the brain, and help your body use insulin more effectively.
Triple Action
Appetite suppression + slower digestion + improved insulin sensitivity work together for effective, sustainable weight loss.
"Medication that works with your body — not against it."

Frequently Asked Questions
What are GLP-1 weight loss injections?
GLP-1 injections are medications that mimic a natural hormone in your body. They help regulate appetite, slow digestion, and improve how your body uses insulin. This makes it easier to eat less, feel full longer, and lose weight effectively.
What is the difference between Semaglutide and Tirzepatide?
Semaglutide (the active ingredient in medications like Ozempic and Wegovy) targets the GLP-1 receptor. Tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Mounjaro and Zepbound) targets both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, which may offer additional weight loss benefits for some patients.
How much weight can I expect to lose?
Clinical studies show patients can lose 15–20% or more of their body weight with GLP-1 medications when combined with lifestyle changes. Individual results vary based on your starting weight, adherence, and metabolism.
How long does treatment take?
Treatment is ongoing. Most patients start seeing results within the first few weeks. Your provider will create a long-term plan and monitor your progress with regular check-ins.
Is this program supervised by a doctor?
Yes. All weight loss injections at True Bliss Medical are prescribed and monitored by Dr. Alexander Rios. You will have regular follow-ups to track progress and adjust your plan as needed.
Do I need to follow a specific diet?
While there is no strict diet plan, eating balanced, protein-rich meals and managing portions will enhance your results. Your provider will give you guidance on nutrition that supports your weight loss goals.
What if I have a history of thyroid issues?
GLP-1 medications may not be appropriate for patients with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2. Your provider will review your full medical history to determine if treatment is safe for you.
How much does the weight loss program cost?
Semaglutide is $300/month and Tirzepatide is $450/month. These are flat rates that include the medication, needles, and your follow-up visits. No hidden fees, no surprise charges. View pricing here.
Can I stop the injections at any time?
Yes. However, stopping the medication may lead to weight regain if lifestyle changes are not maintained. Your provider will help you develop a sustainable plan whether or not you continue treatment.
Are there side effects?
Common side effects include:
- Nausea
- Diarrhea or constipation
- Fatigue
- Headache
- Injection site reactions
These are most common when starting treatment or increasing your dose, and usually improve over time. Contact your provider if side effects become severe.
