We are dedicated to guiding you on your journey to better health and wellness with cutting-edge solutions. One of the exciting options available is Sermorelin therapy, which can aid in your weight management efforts and enhance your overall vitality. What is Sermorelin? Sermorelin is a synthetic peptide that encourages your pituitary gland to produce and release natural growth hormone (GH). Unlike synthetic GH injections that deliver a direct dose, Sermorelin works with your body to naturally enhance hormone production, making it a more balanced and natural approach to hormone therapy. How Sermorelin Can Aid in Weight Loss While results can vary from person to person, many have found that Sermorelin therapy comes with several benefits that might help with weight management: Boosted Metabolism: By promoting the production of GH, Sermorelin can elevate your metabolic rate, which may help you burn more calories even when you’re at rest. Fat Breakdown: GH plays a role in breaking down fat stores, making it easier to shed unwanted pounds. Support for Lean Muscle Mass: Keeping or increasing your muscle mass is crucial for a higher metabolism and long-term weight management success. Better Sleep Quality: Getting a good night’s sleep is vital for effective weight loss since it helps regulate hormones related to hunger and energy. How is Sermorelin Administered? Sermorelin is usually given through subcutaneous injections, often in the evening to align with your body’s natural GH release during sleep. The dosage can vary depending on individual needs, so it's essential to work closely with a healthcare professional to determine what’s right for you. What to Consider As with any treatment, it’s important to keep in mind possible side effects and to have medical supervision during therapy. Some common side effects might include reactions at the injection site, headaches, or dizziness. Regular check-ins with your healthcare provider will help ensure you’re getting the right dosage and address any concerns that may arise. Is Sermorelin Right for You? If you’re looking for effective ways to support your weight management journey, Sermorelin therapy could be a great option to consider.

At Hixson Weight Loss Center & Shot Spot, we’re committed to helping you achieve real, sustainable results with the latest in medical weight loss treatments. One of the most exciting developments in recent years is tirzepatide, a powerful prescription medication shown to help patients lose up to 20% of their body weight. But with recent changes from the FDA, we want to keep you informed and reassured. Here’s what you need to know. What Is Tirzepatide? Tirzepatide (commonly known by brand names like Mounjaro and Zepbound) is an injectable medication that mimics natural hormones in the body to help regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. It’s been a game-changer for people who’ve struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone. What Changed with the FDA? As of March 19, 2025, the FDA has ended its allowance for compounded versions of tirzepatide due to the official resolution of nationwide shortages. This means compounded tirzepatide is no longer legally available from pharmacies that don’t meet specific licensing standards. This change is all about safety and quality control—and we support that fully. We’ve Got You Covered While some providers may no longer be able to offer tirzepatide, our Hixson clinic partners with a licensed pharmacy that meets all FDA requirements. That means we can continue offering this incredible medication safely and legally to our patients.
