What is it?
Tesamorelin is a peptide therapy designed to support fat reduction, particularly the deep abdominal fat that's difficult to lose through diet and exercise alone. It works by stimulating your body's natural growth hormone production, improving body composition and metabolic function.
How does it work?
It signals the brain to release more growth hormone, which plays an important role in how the body processes fat. Increased levels help break down stored fat — especially visceral fat around the abdomen — while supporting muscle tone and metabolic health.
What you need to know
Typically used as part of a comprehensive wellness or weight management plan. Results develop progressively, with many patients noticing reductions in waist size over several weeks to months. Nutrition and activity improve the outcome.
Peptide therapies require medical evaluation and may require a prescription. Certain therapies may involve compounded medications that are not FDA-approved. Individual results vary. See Medical & Regulatory Disclaimer.
