Skinny Shot is a groundbreaking medication that’s changing the way we approach weight loss. Originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, it has shown powerful results in appetite control and weight reduction by mimicking natural hormones that regulate hunger and blood sugar levels. This helps reduce cravings and keeps you feeling fuller longer, supporting lower calorie intake and sustainable weight loss. Skinny Shot contains the active ingredient found in Zepbound and Mounjaro—both FDA-approved medications—and we source it from one of the most trusted, fully accredited compounding pharmacies in the field.

Skinny Shot Overview
At Resurrect Skin MD in Dallas, we do more than simply prescribe Skinny Shot. Our expert team works closely with you throughout your journey, offering ongoing guidance, progress tracking, and personalized adjustments to your treatment plan. Whether you're just beginning or continuing your weight loss efforts, our comprehensive approach ensures a safe, supportive, and effective path toward your health goals—with Skinny Shot at the center of your transformation.
How a Skinny Shot Works
Skinny Shot works by mimicking two key hormones—GLP-1 and GIP—that regulate appetite and blood sugar. This dual-action mechanism reduces cravings, helps you feel full longer, and improves insulin sensitivity, supporting weight loss and stable energy throughout the day.
Why Choose RSMD for Skinny Shot in Dallas?
At Resurrect Skin MD, we introduced the Skinny Shot because our patients asked for a trusted, effective weight loss option—and we knew we could offer something better. Unlike many practices offering quick fixes, our program is grounded in science, safety, and personalized care. Dr. A. Jay Burns, medical director of RSMD and national medical director for 38 clinics, personally reviewed the latest clinical research on these medications before deciding to offer the Skinny Shot. With a strong safety profile and proven results, it stood out as the most responsible and effective option for our patients.
Every Skinny Shot patient at RSMD receives a high level of personalized medical care, starting with a physician extender consultation and guided by our experienced wellness RN coordinator. Our program includes comprehensive lab work, ongoing monitoring, and access to additional treatments for common weight loss side effects like loose skin or volume loss. We also use ShapeScale, an advanced 3D body composition scanner, to accurately track your progress. More than just a prescription, our weight loss approach is built on partnership—delivering expert guidance, motivation, and support every step of the way.
Skinny Shot vs. Other Treatments
Compared to semaglutide, Skinny Shot in Dallas (tirzepatide) activates two hormones instead of one, leading to enhanced appetite suppression and superior clinical results. Both medications require weekly injections and share similar side effects, but tirzepatide has shown greater average weight loss, making it an excellent choice at RSMD.

Frequently Asked Questions
You have questions? We have answers.
How Does the Skinny Shot Work?
Skinny Shot mimics two naturally occurring hormones in your body: GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). Your body produces these hormones after you eat.
By activating the receptors for both GLP-1 and GIP, Skinny Shot helps to:
- Reduce Appetite: Skinny Shot helps you feel full sooner and stay full longer, making it easier to control your food intake and stick to a healthy diet.
- Improve Insulin Sensitivity: Skinny Shot helps your body release the right amount of insulin after you eat, which keeps your blood sugar levels stable and reduces cravings.
- Promote Weight Loss: By controlling your appetite and helping your body process sugar more efficiently, Skinny Shot supports weight loss and stable energy levels throughout the day
Because this treatment helps curb appetite and has a positive effect on energy metabolism, many of our patients find that adopting healthy habits becomes easier and more sustainable than ever before.
Am I a Good Candidate for Skinny Shot?
If you’re interested in a medical weight loss plan, these are some of the things we will discuss:
- Previous Weight Loss Efforts: Skinny Shot is especially helpful for people who have tried to lose weight through diet, exercise and other weight loss programs, but have been unsuccessful.
- Body Mass Index (BMI): Skinny Shot is typically recommended for people with a BMI of 30 or higher (classified as obese) or those with a BMI of 27 or higher (classified as overweight) who also have weight-related health issues, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension or high cholesterol.
- Medical History: Your medical history may affect your suitability for this treatment. Our team will review your health records and conduct any necessary tests to make sure Skinny Shot is safe for you.
- Contraindications: Certain contraindications, such as medullary thyroid carcinoma, endocrine neoplasia syndrome, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or known allergies to Skinny Shot, will prevent you from using this medication. Our team will discuss any potential risks and side effects, so you fully understand the treatment before proceeding.
- Commitment to a Comprehensive Plan: Medications like Skinny Shots are most effective when combined with lifestyle modifications. You should be willing to engage in a comprehensive treatment plan that includes healthy eating, regular physical activity, and ongoing medical supervision.
Whether you come to us for weight loss or an aesthetic treatment, we always have a long-term vision in mind. Our wellness team will help you learn and implement healthy habits that set you up for sustainable weight loss success.
How Do We Track Your Progress?
Our goal is to help you adopt habits that will allow you to not only achieve your goal weight, but to maintain it whether you continue your weight loss injections or not. We’ve invested in ShapeScale to help you see the most accurate and comprehensive view of your weight loss progress.
ShapeScale creates a precise 3D model of your body in less than a minute. You stand on the scale platform while a scanning arm rotates around you, capturing hundreds of images. Advanced software then creates a detailed 3D model of your body, and the accompanying app provides in-depth analysis that goes far beyond traditional scales or body composition analyzers.
With ShapeScale, you can see exactly where you’re losing fat and gaining muscle, even if the number on the scale isn’t changing. This technology allows us to fine-tune your treatment plan based on your unique body composition and how it changes over time.
