90-Day GLP-1 Microdosing in Newport Beach
Not every patient needs maximum-dose GLP-1 therapy. Microdosing offers the metabolic and appetite benefits of Tirzepatide at lower doses — ideal for weight maintenance after a full program, or as a gentler entry point for patients earlier in their weight management journey.
GLP-1 microdosing uses Tirzepatide at sub-therapeutic doses — lower than those used in aggressive weight loss protocols — to achieve meaningful metabolic regulation, appetite modulation, and weight maintenance with fewer side effects and at a lower cost than a full monthly subscription program. The 90-day format provides a defined, manageable commitment that suits patients at different stages of their GLP-1 journey.
At Plump Medical Spa in Newport Beach, Dr. Amir Mortazavi, MD offers the 90-day microdosing program for both patients who have completed a full Tirzepatide program and want to maintain their results, and for patients who want to begin GLP-1 therapy at a lower, more gradual dose before committing to a full program.
Microdosing is not a shortcut — it is a different clinical tool. It produces less aggressive weight loss than full-dose therapy but offers better tolerability, lower cost, and a sustainable long-term maintenance strategy. Dr. Mortazavi determines whether microdosing or a full program is more appropriate for each patient at consultation.
Who is the 90-day microdosing program for?
Protecting results after full-dose therapy
Patients who have completed a full Tirzepatide program and achieved their weight loss goal but want ongoing metabolic support to prevent regain. Microdosing maintains the hormonal and appetite regulation benefits of GLP-1 at a lower intensity and lower cost than continuing the full program.
A gentler starting point
Patients who want to begin GLP-1 therapy with a lower dose, less aggressive titration, and a defined 90-day commitment before deciding whether to continue or escalate to a full program. Better tolerability, lower monthly cost, and a natural evaluation point at 90 days.
What to expect
Consultation
Dr. Mortazavi reviews the patient’s health history, prior GLP-1 experience if any, weight goals, and metabolic profile before recommending microdosing versus a full program. For patients coming off a full program, the transition to microdosing is planned to maintain appetite regulation while reducing dose and cost.
The 90-day program
The program covers 90 days of physician-supervised Tirzepatide microdosing. Dose is set and monitored by Dr. Mortazavi based on the patient’s starting point and goals. Weekly self-administered subcutaneous injections. Check-ins and dose adjustments managed throughout the program.
After 90 days
At the conclusion of the program, Dr. Mortazavi evaluates results and metabolic response to determine the appropriate next step — continuing microdosing, transitioning to a full program, or tapering off with a maintenance strategy in place.
GLP-1 microdosing fills an important gap between full-dose therapy and no therapy at all. For patients who have worked hard to lose weight and want to protect those results without the cost and intensity of a full program, it is often exactly the right tool. All prescriptions and program management handled personally.
Frequently asked questions
What is GLP-1 microdosing?
GLP-1 microdosing uses Tirzepatide at lower doses than standard weight loss protocols to achieve metabolic regulation, appetite modulation, and weight maintenance with fewer side effects and lower cost. It is used for maintenance after a full program or as a gentler entry point into GLP-1 therapy.
Will I lose weight on microdosing?
Microdosing typically produces modest weight loss or weight stability rather than the significant weight reduction seen with full-dose therapy. For patients using it as a maintenance tool after achieving their goal, stabilization is the primary objective. For new patients starting at low dose, some weight loss is common but less dramatic than full-dose programs.
How does the 90-day program work?
After a medical consultation and evaluation, Dr. Mortazavi prescribes and manages Tirzepatide at a microdose for 90 days. Weekly self-administered injections. Check-ins and dose adjustments throughout. At 90 days, results are evaluated and the next step determined together.
How much does the 90-day microdosing program cost?
The 90-day GLP-1 microdosing program at Plump Medical Spa in Newport Beach is $750 for the full 90-day program, including physician supervision and dose management.
