What is Peptide Therapy?
Peptide therapy utilizes short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, to trigger certain cellular responses. These peptides act as signaling mechanisms, essentially directing your cells to carry out specific tasks such as tissue repair or immune system modulation. The treatment is minimally invasive, with peptides being introduced into the body through injections.
These peptides work synergistically with your body’s natural processes, complementing and boosting your inherent healing capacity.

Peptide Treatments We Offer
We offer a comprehensive array of peptides designed to address a multitude of health concerns and target specific aspects of your wellbeing. These therapies can help you achieve your health goals and improve your overall quality of life.
Skin Rejuvenation
GHK
GHK, or Gly-His-Lys, is a copper peptide known for its skin regeneration properties. It promotes collagen production, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin elasticity, contributing to healthier, younger-looking skin.
GHK-Cu Peptide Injections
GHK-Cu peptide injections offer the benefits of GHK directly to your skin. These include enhanced rejuvenation, improved elasticity, and a reduction in signs of aging.
Sleep Aid
Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide (DSIP)
DSIP aids in regulating sleep patterns. It can help alleviate insomnia, enhance REM sleep, and improve overall sleep quality. A well-rested body is critical for optimal health and cognitive function.
DSIP Acetate
Similar to DSIP, DSIP Acetate promotes healthy sleep cycles. By improving the quality of sleep, this peptide aids in the body’s natural restorative processes, promoting overall wellness and cognitive function.
Melatonin
Melatonin is a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles. Supplementing with melatonin can aid in sleep regulation, improve mood, and boost immune function.
Melatonin II
Like Melatonin, Melatonin II aids in the regulation of sleep cycles. It can help those suffering from sleep disorders achieve restful and rejuvenating sleep.
Weight Loss
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin is a peptide combination that boosts secretion of the human growth hormone production (HGH). Higher HGH levels can increase muscle mass, promote fat loss, and improve sleep quality.
Semiglutide
Semiglutide aids in weight management and blood glucose control. By supporting a healthy metabolism and maintaining blood sugar levels, it contributes to overall health and wellness.
Cognitive Enhancement
Dihexa
Dihexa is a potent peptide recognized for its potential to enhance cognitive function. It aids in neural communication, potentially improving memory and cognitive performance. It may also have potential therapeutic effects for neurodegenerative disorders.
Semax for ADHD
Semax is a neuroactive peptide used in the management of ADHD. It can improve focus, attention, and cognitive performance, making it beneficial for those with attention-deficit disorders.
Selank
Selank is a synthetic peptide that can alleviate anxiety and improve cognitive function. By enhancing brain function and mood, Selank contributes to overall mental well-being.
Tissue Healing and Immune Support
ARA-290: Vascularization
ARA-290 is a synthetic peptide that promotes vascularization. This means it helps form new blood vessels, enhancing blood flow to tissues and organs. Improved vascularization aids in tissue repair and regeneration, ensuring optimal organ function.
BPC-157
BPC-157, also known as body protection compound, has numerous health benefits. It enhances wound healing, reduces inflammation, and promotes gastrointestinal health. By aiding tissue repair, BPC-157 can improve your overall well-being.
Cyanocobalamin
Cyanocobalamin, or Vitamin B12, plays a crucial role in maintaining the health of your nerves and blood cells. This peptide helps prevent anemia, boosts energy levels, and supports a healthy nervous system.
Hormone and Metabolic Regulation
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin is a peptide combination known for its ability to boost growth hormone production. This enhances muscle growth, promotes fat loss, and improves sleep quality, thereby contributing to overall health and wellness.
Kisspeptin
Kisspeptin regulates the release of reproductive hormones, maintaining fertility and enhancing sexual health.
PT-141 Bremolanotide/Compounded Vyleesi
PT-141 Bremolanotide enhances sexual function and can address issues of decreased libido and sexual dysfunction, improving quality of life.
Sermorelin
