What your monthly price buys

This is medically guided treatment, not simply medication. Some services only dispense the medication and leave the rest to you. Here, one monthly price covers the care around every dose.

Medical screening first

A provider reviews your health history and bloodwork before anything is prescribed. Bloodwork is required.

Your medication

Tirzepatide prescribed by our medical team and filled by a licensed U.S. 503A compounding pharmacy.

Injections given by a nurse

At your weekly in-clinic visit a nurse gives the injection and checks how you are doing.

Weight checks and dose adjustments

Your dose starts low and steps up gradually, adjusted to your response and how you tolerate it.

Formal lab review

Your labs go straight to our medical team. Recent bloodwork is reviewed before your first visit at no charge.

Support between visits

Diet and nutrition guidance, and a team you can call with questions, so you are never on your own.

In the clinic or at home?

Same plan, same monthly price. The only difference is where the injection happens.

Most patients

In the clinic

Come in weekly. A nurse gives every injection and checks your weight at each visit. Nothing to store or inject yourself.

  • Weekly nurse visits
  • Every injection given by a nurse
  • Weight check at each visit
  • Nothing to keep at home

At home

Prefer to self-inject? Your provider decides when you are ready. You get your injection in the clinic, take the rest of the month's doses home in a take-home kit, and come back monthly.

  • One clinic visit a month
  • Take-home kit with the rest of your doses
  • Monthly check-in, weight check and next supply
  • Same monthly price, switch anytime

Your provider confirms your dose, your exact price and which option fits you at your first visit. Nothing due today.

"Such a good experience at Cienega Med Spa with all the treatments and I'd highly recommend them. Especially if you are on the fence, or a first timer with their treatments. For each, my technicians have been thoughtful, informative and have talked me through ALL the questions. I've never felt pressured, not salesy as I've experienced with other places too!"

Common questions

What makes tirzepatide different from other weight loss medications?
Tirzepatide is the only FDA-approved medication that activates both GIP and GLP-1 receptors simultaneously. This dual action makes it significantly more effective than single-receptor medications, with clinical trials showing 20-25% average body weight loss.
How fast can I start tirzepatide?

If you have bloodwork from roughly the last 6 months, you are only limited by how fast you can book and upload it, and both take just minutes online. Your labs go straight to our medical team for review, at no charge, and the review happens before your first visit. Once you are cleared, your first injection happens right at that visit. No recent labs? We book you a quick blood draw first, and results typically come back within a few days.

What does the monthly price include?

Your monthly price buys a medically guided program, not medication alone. It includes your tirzepatide, weekly in-clinic visits, injections given by a nurse, a provider review of your health history and labs before you start, weight checks, dose adjustments as you progress, and diet and nutrition guidance. Nothing is charged per shot. The only separate cost is bloodwork, and only if your insurance does not cover it.

Do I have to come in every week, or can I inject at home?

Both are available on the same plans at the same monthly price. Most patients come in weekly and a nurse gives every injection, with a weight check at each visit. If you would rather inject at home, your provider decides when you are ready: you get your injection in the clinic, take the rest of the month's doses home in a take-home kit, and come back monthly for your check-in, weight check and next supply. You choose at your visit and can switch later.

Where can I get tirzepatide near me in Los Angeles?

Cienega Medical offers tirzepatide weight-loss programs at three Los Angeles-area clinics: West Hollywood, Santa Monica, and Calabasas. Tirzepatide is prescribed by our medical team when appropriate after a consultation that reviews your health history and goals. Call 323-655-8220 or book online to find the location most convenient for you.

How much does tirzepatide cost in Los Angeles?

Tirzepatide pricing in Los Angeles varies by clinic, dose, and whether the program includes provider visits and follow-up. At Cienega Medical, compounded tirzepatide is offered as part of a medically supervised program, so the monthly cost reflects the medication plus ongoing clinical support. See the pricing section above for our current rates, or call 323-655-8220 to confirm what your program includes.

Is tirzepatide the same as Mounjaro® or Zepbound®?
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro® and Zepbound®, a GLP-1/GIP medication. The tirzepatide we prescribe is compounded by a licensed pharmacy, is not FDA-approved, and is not the same as those branded products. Your provider reviews whether it's appropriate for your weight-management goals at your first visit. Mounjaro® and Zepbound® are registered trademarks of their manufacturers; Cienega is not affiliated with or endorsed by them.
Do you offer Mounjaro® or Zepbound® in Los Angeles?
We don't dispense the brand-name products Mounjaro® or Zepbound®. Our Los Angeles clinics offer physician-supervised compounded tirzepatide - the same GLP-1/GIP active ingredient - for medical weight management across West Hollywood, Santa Monica, and Calabasas. Your provider determines the right plan for you, care is month-to-month, and your first visit is free.
How much weight can I expect to lose with tirzepatide?
In clinical trials, patients lost an average of 20-25% of their body weight over 72 weeks. Individual results vary based on starting weight, adherence to the program, and lifestyle factors. Many of our patients see noticeable results within the first month.
What is the tirzepatide dosing schedule?
Tirzepatide is injected once weekly. We start at a low dose (2.5mg) and gradually increase every 4 weeks based on your response and tolerance. The maximum dose is 15mg weekly. This gradual approach minimizes side effects.
What are the side effects of tirzepatide?
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, and decreased appetite-especially when starting or increasing doses. These typically improve within a few weeks. Our gradual dosing protocol and medical supervision help minimize discomfort.
How does tirzepatide compare to semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy)?
Head-to-head trials show tirzepatide produces approximately 5% more weight loss than semaglutide. Tirzepatide activates two receptors (GIP + GLP-1) while semaglutide activates only one (GLP-1). We offer both options and can help you decide which is right for you.
Where do your peptides come from?

Your prescription is filled by a licensed U.S. 503A compounding pharmacy.
