Peptide therapy involves administering peptides, which are short chains of amino acids, to patients in order to promote health and healing in the body. Peptides can be used to increase energy levels, build muscle, burn fat, improve cognition, enhance mood, strengthen the immune system, and for anti-aging and injury recovery.
Elite Hormone Therapy provides comprehensive, customized peptide therapy treatments to help patients achieve a range of health goals. Our expert clinicians will evaluate each patient's unique needs and develop an individualized peptide protocol to maximize benefits and minimize any side effects.
Some of the key benefits of peptide therapy offered by Elite Hormone Therapy include:
Certain peptides like Ipamorelin can stimulate muscle growth by prompting the body to produce more growth hormone and IGF-1. This leads to an increase in protein synthesis and more efficient muscle repair following injuries or intense workouts.
Peptides for weight loss such as CJC-1295 work by regulating metabolism, curbing appetite, building muscle, and burning stubborn fat stores. They are very helpful for patients who struggle to slim down through diet and exercise alone.
Peptides have powerful anti-aging and rejuvenating effects, leading to a more youthful appearance overall. Sermorelin in particular helps stimulate skin cell turnover through increased human growth hormone production, while also repairing connective tissues to combat wrinkles.
Some of our peptide compounds directly target deeper, more restorative sleep which is vital for energy levels, mood, and overall health. Our clinicians can help patients identify which peptides may improve their sleep issues.
Peptides that boost human growth hormone, IGF-1, and protein synthesis have been shown clinically to accelerate musculoskeletal injury repair. This allows patients to get back on their feet faster after accidents or athletic injuries.
Nootropic peptides such as Semax and Selank aid memory and cognition while providing neuroprotective benefits. This makes them helpful for patients dealing with cognitive impairment, brain injuries, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, ADHD, and related issues.
Our expert clinicians first order blood tests and medical analysis to accurately evaluate the patient's clinical needs and hormone levels. Then they develop a personalized peptide therapy protocol tailored to the individual's health goals and medical profile.
Peptide injections are typically self-administered subcutaneously 2-3 times per day. The peptides directly enter the bloodstream to bind cell receptors and perform their bioactive functions. Some compounds promote the body's production of key hormones while others mimic natural hormones.
Most patients begin noticing the results and improvements in energy, physique, mood, cognition, and other areas within 3-6 weeks. Treatments often continue for 6-12 months but can safely provide benefits for many years under our clinicians' supervision and with follow-up blood tests to monitor biometrics and adjust dosages as needed.
There are many different categories of peptides utilized in treatment protocols, including the following:
CJC-1295 Ipamorelin GHRP-6 Hexarelin
These peptides help boost production of the body's key anabolic growth hormone which has wide-ranging health, anti-aging and rejuvenating effects. They provide increases in energy, muscle gains, fat burning, and skin improvements.
BPC-157 TB-500 Thymosin Beta-4
These peptides speed up wound healing, injury repair, tissue regeneration and recovery following illness or trauma. They help muscles, bones, tendons and organs heal faster.
Semax Selank Cerebrolysin
Nootropic "smart peptides" work in the brain to boost memory, focus, mental clarity, mood and cognition. They benefit Alzheimer's patients and those struggling with ADHD, brain fog, and related issues.
Peptide therapy is showing promise for improving skin health and appearance. Small peptides applied topically can apparently signal skin cells to ramp up collagen and elastin production, reducing wrinkles and firming skin over time. It's a non-invasive approach without the risks or downtime of more aggressive anti-aging treatments.
At Elite Hormone Therapy, peptide therapy is our specialty. We operate a dedicated peptide clinic staffed with expert physicians, nurses, and health advisors focusing exclusively on these cutting-edge compounds.
Dr. Lara Simpson heads up our clinical peptide program. She is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician and fellowship-trained endocrinologist who has helped thousands of patients optimize their health with peptides over the past decade. Patients benefit from her extensive expertise in age management medicine with peptides.
We offer a warm, welcoming environment where your goals and concerns are addressed on an individual level with sensitivity and discretion. You can count on a professional, caring experience throughout your treatment program to get you looking and feeling your absolute best again.

Following are some key topics related to our peptide treatments:
There are certain deficiency signs and symptoms that may indicate one's hormone or protein levels have declined. Peptides can often help boost these levels back to more youthful parameters:
Decreased muscle tone and mass Excess body fat, stubborn belly fat Lack of energy and stamina Cognitive issues like "brain fog" Low libido and sexual health Mood instability and depression Poor injury recovery Skin aging signs and wrinkles
Peptides injections and hormone balancing under our clinicians' supervision work by stimulating natural processes in the body associated with growth, healing, vitality and youth. Deficiency signs can resolve as peptide treatments restore one's inner biochemistry and proteins to healthier functional levels.
Hormone and blood testing is a key part of any peptide therapy program. Accurately determining a patient's baseline hormone and protein levels allows our practitioners to tailor the peptides to what the body specifically needs for rebalancing.
We offer state-of-the-art testing at our affiliated lab facilities, analyzing over 30 different hormone, deficiency and biomarker data points. Test results are carefully evaluated when designing your peptide dosage and schedule. Follow-up tests are ordered at intervals to monitor your progress and adjust protocols as needed.
Proper nutrition provides the basic building blocks for peptides to maximize restoration, healing and regeneration effects throughout the body's tissues and organs. Our advisors provide customized eating guidelines to support your treatment:
Getting adequate protein - peptides work synergistically with dietary protein to promote tissue growth Balancing carbohydrate intake - carbs influence insulin response which impacts peptide bioactivity and half-life Healthy fats for hormones - omega fatty acids, olive oil and others help hormones absorb and function Vitamins and supplements - B vitamins, zinc, magnesium and D3 aid hormone and peptide metabolism
We offer nutrition planning suited to your needs to supercharge results from our peptide treatments.
In addition to physical benefits, many of our patients find their mood, emotional affect, motivation, and cognition improve thanks to peptides balancing neurotransmitters and neural pathways. But mental health requires a comprehensive approach.
That's why we have psychologists and counselors available to all our patients as needed. They can provide coaching and techniques to reduce anxiety, elevate mood, build self-confidence, improve relationships and more based on your individual mental health goals.
Peptides tend to synergize well with stress reduction techniques, mindfulness practices, talk therapy sessions, journaling, nature sounds and movement. Our advisors personalize mental health support plans to complement your peptide treatments.
