Peptide therapy is an exciting new advancement in preventative medicine and anti-aging techniques. At Elite Hormone Therapy in Dothan, we offer cutting-edge peptide treatments to help patients look and feel their best. Keep reading to learn more about how peptide therapy works as well as the specific peptide protocols we offer.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that help regulate bodily functions at the cellular level. Our bodies produce some peptides naturally, but as we age peptide production slows and deficiencies can occur. Peptide treatment helps restore optimal levels through supplementation. Specific peptides provide targeted benefits depending on their structure and mode of action in the body.
When administered, therapeutic peptides stimulate the body's own repair and recovery mechanisms. This has implications for improved energy, weight management, skin health, muscle building, injury healing, chronic pain relief, improved cognition, deeper sleep, and mood stabilization. The versatile applications of peptides make them useful for a wide range of lifestyle goals and health complaints.
At Elite Hormone Therapy, our medical providers specialize in peptide therapy to help each patient find their own customized path to wellness and vitality.
Over years of research, scientists have developed peptide compounds that provide specific health and aesthetic benefits. The most popular and well-studied categories of peptides include:
Sermorelin is a growth hormone releasing peptide that boosts the body's own natural production of human growth hormone (HGH). As we age, HGH production declines significantly, leading to undesirable effects:
Sermorelin peptide therapy safely counteracts this decline, restoring HGH to youthful levels. Higher HGH means increased energy, improved physique, better health, and an all-around more youthful physiology. HGH peptides like Sermorelin do not artificially add HGH like banned sports supplements. Rather, they stimulate your own natural pituitary gland to produce higher growth hormone levels sustainably.
A newer class of regenerative peptides includes Thymosin Beta 4 (TB-500). As the name suggests, this peptide jumpstarts the process of cell repair throughout the body by activating adult stem cells. Benefits include:
TB-500 is popular with fitness enthusiasts looking to heal injuries faster. It also has very promising applications for those suffering from chronic inflammatory conditions.
AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of the growth hormone molecule. It provides fat burning effects without side effects common to synthetic hGH like increased blood sugar or extra growth effects on hands, feet, face or organs. Key benefits of AOD-9604 peptide therapy include:
Together, these effects make AOD-9604 the premier peptide for safe and sustainable weight loss results. It stimulates the metabolism to burn more calories per day, while helping manage hunger cravings.
Elite Hormone Therapy also offers BPC-157 for gut health and rapid healing, PT-141 for sexual wellness, and a variety of other exotic peptides. Our providers stay current with the peptide research pipeline to provide you with the most advanced options.
We also formulate custom peptide blends to target your unique health goals. Schedule a free consultation to learn more.
To reap the most rewards from peptide supplementation, many patients opt for intravenous therapy. Getting peptides as monthly injections allows for proper dosage and maximum absorption. At our Dothan wellness center, patients can relax in our comfortable infusion suite while getting peptide cocktails delivered intravenously for best results.
There are many good reasons to explore peptide supplementation, such as:
Elite Hormone Therapy also provides peptides for intramuscular injections, topical creams, oral administration, and other methods to suit your preferences. Not ready to commit to full peptide therapy? Ask about amino acid blends which provide milder benefits with no prescription required.
We're here to answer your questions and design a plan tailored to your objectives. The rewarding benefits of peptide supplementation await!
Peptides are legal to prescribe and use under medical supervision. None of the peptides we offer appear on banned substance lists. Clinical studies support both their safety and efficacy.
Most patients report increased energy, improved sleep, better physique, enhanced skin quality, thicker hair, faster injury recovery, reduced joint pain, heightened libido, and other benefits. The extent depends on your protocol, lifestyle, diet, and consistency with treatment. Track progress with bloodwork and body composition tests.
Effects begin accumulating quickly but plateau after 3-6 months for most patients. Phase I focuses on cellular repair before more obvious systemic changes emerge. Be patient but consistent for 6 month protocols.
When properly dosed, side effects are rare. Some mild reactions like site redness or itching from injections may occur. Digestive upset is possible. Discuss all health history with your provider.
Yes! Peptide therapy works synergistically with many modalities: botox, PRP, medication, lifestyle coaching, supplements, physical therapy and more. We integrate care for amplified benefits.
Most patients start with weekly visits, then shift to biweekly or monthly for maintenance. Injections only take a few minutes. IV therapy sessions last 15-20 minutes. We make it easy and those are just the basics! Contact Elite Hormone Therapy today to ask all your other questions about harnessing the power of peptide therapy.
Peptide therapy has shown promise for treating chronic wounds in elderly diabetic patients. Certain peptides can stimulate wound healing when administered topically, jump-starting the body's natural tissue repair processes. This has helped heal stubborn foot and leg ulcers resistant to other standard therapies in a number of studies.
While peptide supplements work from the inside out to promote healing and homeostasis, supporting lifestyle measures amplify their effects. Here are some best practices to get the most out of your investment:
Exercise is essential for circulating peptides throughout the body and activating their tissue repairing effects. Aim for a mix of cardio, strength training, mobility work, and active recovery like walking or yoga. Our team can suggest protocols timed with your injections for maximum synergy. We can also connect you with certified trainers familiar with peptide therapy.
Chronic stress impedes peptide benefits. Prioritize daily relaxation whether it’s breathwork, meditation, enjoying nature, massage, float therapy or other stress-reducing activities. Let us know how we can help point you toward local resources.
Quality sleep allows peptides to work their magic recharging your cells. Turn off devices before bed, limit caffeine past noon, develop a calming routine, and consider supplements like magnesium or CBD. Using blue light blocking glasses after sunset also promotes melatonin release.
Avoid excess sugar, processed foods, and alcohol which create oxidative damage and inflammation, accelerating aging. Emphasize organic produce, grass fed meats, wild caught seafood, nuts/seeds, and antioxidant-rich superfoods. Stay hydrated with filtered water. Time-restricted eating or intermittent fasting can amplify results.
Peptides aren’t magic bullets. You still have to put in the work to hit your goals. But they ARE powerful tools which shift cellular function in your favor. Dial in a healthy lifestyle to activate their rejuvenating potential!
