Questions about peptides.
What are peptides?
Peptides are small proteins composed of short amino acid chains that signal cells in the body, influencing how we function, feel, look, and live. Given that different peptides target specific cells and processes, they can be precisely tailored to treat a wide range of health, wellness, fitness, aging, and cognitive issues.
Who is a good candidate for peptide therapy?
Peptides can be an effective way to look, feel, and perform at your best. If you lead an active lifestyle and want to improve your health, weight, or fitness in a simple manner, peptides may be a suitable option. Your healthcare provider can help you identify the best peptides to fit your lifestyle and personal goals. However, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medications, or have a medical condition, it’s crucial to discuss these factors with your provider before starting any peptide therapy.
How are peptides administered?
Peptides can be administered through various routes depending on their formulation, such as intradermal injections, nasal sprays, transdermal creams, and oral tablets.
Do I need to change my routine?
Peptide therapy does not require you to change your daily routine. However, you can maximize the benefits by maintaining a healthy lifestyle – eating well, staying active, getting enough sleep, and managing stress. Your provider at Bion Aesthetics and Med Spa will work closely with you to implement these lifestyle changes and support your overall health goals.
What medical conditions would prevent me from using peptides?
Before starting peptide therapy, you should discuss any existing health conditions, ongoing treatments, or current medications with your medical provider.
How quickly do peptides work?
Certain peptides offer more immediate benefits, while others require weeks or even months before users experience the full effects of the treatment.
How can I get started with peptide therapy?
