What Does Our Weight Loss Program Involve?
Our weight loss program is overseen by Dr. Craig Rowin and administered by Katie B. DeLapp, APRN, and Liz Vandyke Freer, PA-C. We tailor the program to suit each patient’s individual case, providing in-depth guidance and compassionate care every step of the way. In addition to incorporating GLP-1 agonists like tirzepatide where applicable, the program includes monthly vitamin packs to support the weight loss patient’s overall health throughout the process. As part of the program, you will attend regular check-ups to allow our team to monitor your progress.
Beyond helping you feel great about your body and significantly improving your quality of life, these weight loss tools can help you prepare for a range of aesthetic surgeries, such as liposuction, tummy tuck surgery, or a Mommy Makeover.
What Is Tirzepatide?
A type of GLP-1 agonist, tirzepatide is an injectable medication designed to regulate appetite, control insulin production, and improve the body’s ability to process sugars and fats.* Compared to semaglutide, tirzepatide is generally considered more effective and less likely to cause significant side effects. When prescribed by an experienced physician and administered properly, tirzepatide can help qualifying patients lose weight safely and effectively.
At Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas, we source tirzepatide from a reputable and local compounding pharmacy. If our medical professionals determine that tirzepatide is right for you, we can incorporate the weekly injections into your customized weight loss plan.
