What Is Tesamorelin?
Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) that stimulates the pituitary gland to produce and release growth hormone naturally. Unlike broad growth hormone therapies, Tesamorelin is highly targeted, it is best known for its ability to reduce visceral fat, the deep abdominal fat that surrounds internal organs and is strongly linked to metabolic disease. At New Results Medical Weight Loss, Tesamorelin is used as part of a personalized peptide protocol to support fat loss, metabolic health, and body composition.
How Tesamorelin Supports Weight Loss
Tesamorelin works by increasing growth hormone levels in a controlled, physiologically appropriate way, which in turn promotes lipolysis — the breakdown of stored fat for energy. It is particularly effective at targeting visceral abdominal fat, making it a strong option for patients who struggle with belly fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise alone. When combined with a GLP-1 program like Semaglutide or Tirzepatide, Tesamorelin can further accelerate body composition improvements.
