Retatrutide at Sculpt MD
At Sculpt MD, we understand that weight loss isn’t just about eating less and moving more. For many people, it’s about working with your body’s chemistry—not against it. That’s why we’re excited to offer Retatrutide, one of the most advanced tools in medical weight management today. If you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck, Retatrutide could be the key to finally making lasting progress.
What Is Retatrutide?
Retatrutide is a next-generation weight loss medication that works by mimicking three natural hormones your body already uses to regulate hunger, blood sugar, and energy:
- GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) slows gastric emptying, helping you feel full longer, improves satiety, and enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion.
- GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) supports insulin release but may also improve beta-cell function and work synergistically with GLP-1
- Glucagon receptor activation stimulates lipolysis and energy expenditure, supporting fat loss beyond caloric restriction alone
Together, these pathways regulate hunger, insulin secretion, glucose metabolism, and fat utilization. What makes Retatrutide unique is its triple agonist action—simultaneously activating GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors in a carefully balanced ratio. Retatrutide combines all three into one injectable treatment—making it one of the most comprehensive tools we’ve ever had for weight loss.
Why Use Retatrutide?
Patients who struggle with metabolic resistance or partial response to other therapies may benefit from Retatrutide’s broader mechanism. Unlike single-pathway GLP-1 agonists, it addresses appetite, metabolism, and energy expenditure together—helping patients break through stubborn plateaus. This makes Retatrutide particularly helpful for:
- Patients with weight regain after initial loss on semaglutide or tirzepatide
- Individuals with visceral fat accumulation or insulin resistance not fully responsive to GLP-1/GIP dual therapy
- Patients who need more metabolic “leverage” without jumping to surgical options
How Do You Take It?
Retatrutide is a weekly subcutaneous injection you administer at home, just like other GLP-1 medications. Most people start with a low dose and gradually increase to minimize side effects. At Sculpt MD, we guide you through everything—from training you on how to inject it properly, to monitoring your progress and adjusting your plan as needed.
Are There Side Effects?
As with any weight loss medication, some people experience mild side effects in the beginning, especially as the body adjusts. The most common include:
- Nausea
- Bloating
- Mild stomach discomfort
- Constipation or loose stools
These usually improve over the first few weeks. If needed, we can adjust your dosing schedule to make the transition easier.
Who’s a Good Candidate?
Retatrutide may be right for you if:
- You’ve struggled to lose weight with diet and exercise alone
- You’ve tried other medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide but hit a plateau
- You’re looking for a deeper, more complete approach to weight loss—not just appetite control
During your consultation at Sculpt MD, we’ll review your health history, lab work, and weight loss goals to determine if Retatrutide is the right fit.
