Peptides are short chains of amino acids that occur naturally in the body and provide a variety of health and anti-aging benefits. As we age, our bodies produce fewer peptides, leading to peptide deficiency. Getting peptide injections can help alleviate this deficiency and support optimal health.
At New Beginnings HRT Clinic in Playa Vista, we offer cutting-edge peptide therapy to help patients look and feel their best. Peptides provide a variety of benefits, including:
* Some peptides like Ipamorelin promote muscle growth and development * Peptides provide athletes with greater endurance, strength, faster recovery times, and reduced inflammation * Those struggling with age-related muscle loss can rebuild strength and lean tissue
* Certain peptides modulate the immune system and enhance the body's defenses * With boosted immunity, patients get sick less often and recover more quickly when they do
* Peptides like Semax provide nootropic benefits to enhance cognition * Patients report greater mental clarity, improved memory, increased motivation, and a mood boost * Peptides alleviate fatigue to keep energy levels high all day
* Peptides facilitate tissue repair by increasing the availability of stem cells at injury sites * Quicker recovery times mean less pain and faster return to regular activity
* Some peptides promote deeper, more restorative sleep * With better sleep, patients awaken feeling refreshed and energized
* Collagen peptides support skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles from sun damage * Patients report tighter, smoother, and brighter looking skin * Peptides postpone and soften signs of aging for a more youthful appearance
* Peptides influence metabolic functions to optimize fat burning for weight loss * Increased muscle mass achieved with peptides helps elevate resting metabolism * Patients find it easier to get fit, burn stubborn fat deposits, and maintain results
With so many health and wellness benefits, it's no wonder peptides are growing in popularity. Keep reading to learn more about the types of peptides we offer and how peptide therapy works.
Our highly trained medical team administers peptide injections through a simple in-office procedure. Patients sit comfortably while we insert a tiny needle into the skin, often in the abdomen, arms, or legs. The full treatment takes only 5-10 minutes for rapid and convenient benefits.
We create customized peptide therapy protocols tailored to each patient's unique health goals. Treatment plans combine various peptides injected over the course of several weeks or months. Frequency varies based on which peptides we use, but most patients receive injections 1-2 times per week.
During the initial consultation, we evaluate patients' objectives, medical history, and lab testing to determine an optimal peptide regimen. Follow-up bloodwork helps us monitor progress and make dosage adjustments when needed.
To get started with peptide therapy in Playa Vista: 1. Schedule a consultation to meet with one of our practitioners 2. Get necessary lab testing done to analyze hormone levels 3. Begin customized peptide injections according to your treatment plan
The quick, non-invasive nature of peptide injections makes them an appealing anti-aging treatment with little to no downtime. Now let’s explore some of the most popular peptides we offer.
Sermorelin is an extraordinarily useful peptide hormone that boosts the body’s production of human growth hormone (HGH). As HGH production naturally declines with age, sermorelin helps restore more youthful levels to alleviate age-related health declines.
* Increases muscle mass and strength * Reduces body fat, especially stubborn belly fat * Sharpens memory, focus and cognition * Improves mood, motivation and energy * Strengthens the immune system * Enhances bone mineral density * Promotes deeper, more restorative sleep * Improves skin texture and elasticity * Speeds up recovery from illness and injury
With so many impressive benefits for wellness and anti-aging, sermorelin is one of our most popular peptides.
Tesamorelin is another growth hormone releasing peptide that stimulates the pituitary gland to produce more HGH. It provides very similar benefits as sermorelin, making it another go-to peptide therapy.
* Builds lean muscle mass * Burns adipose fat tissue, especially dangerous belly fat * Boosts energy levels and physical endurance * Improves cognitive function and mood * Strengthens the immune system * Increases bone mineral density * Reduces inflammation throughout the body * Smooths and tightens skin for a more youthful appearance
Together, sermorelin and tesamorelin promote HGH production to help patients combat age-related declines.
Known more formally as conjugated compound CJC-1295, this peptide magnifies the body’s own growth hormone releasing hormones (GHRH). As a GHRH analog, it enhances pulsatile release of HGH and other growth factors.
* Increases lean muscle mass even during calorie deficit * Reduces stubborn subcutaneous fat deposits * Provides cognitive enhancement benefits * Quickens recovery time after illnesses or injuries * Strengthens the immune system * Elevates bone density to prevent osteoporosis * Tightens sagging skin and minimizes wrinkles * Stimulates faster hair and nail growth * Improves overall sense of health and well-being
CJC-1295 stacks very well with sermorelin or tesamorelin to further boost patients’ own HGH production. The synergistic effects promote even greater benefits.
Ipamorelin is a growth hormone releasing peptide that also sends signals to the pituitary gland to produce more HGH. One of the safest peptides, it produces significant anti-aging effects without unwanted side effects.
* Increases muscle mass and strength * Burns visceral and subcutaneous fat * Does not increase blood sugar levels * Enhances mood, mental clarity and energy * Boosts immunity against illness * Reduces inflammation responsible for chronic disease * Smoothes skin texture and restores elasticity * Slows hair loss and graying
As an extraordinarily mild peptide, ipamorelin offers a compelling balance of safety and efficacy.
Known as body protection compound 157, BPC-157 accelerates injury healing throughout the body. This peptide facilitates tissue and wound repair by increasing availability of stem cells to rebuild at sites of damage.
* Significantly speeds up recovery from sports injuries * Alleviates joint pain and enhances flexibility * Heals leaky gut syndrome and IBS * Reduces ulcers in the stomach/intestines * Repairs damage from heart attacks or stroke * Promotes faster recovery after surgery * Provides pain relief equivalent to NSAIDs without side effects * Reduces systemic inflammation responsible for chronic disease
We often incorporate BPC-157 into peptide stacks because keeping patients healthy means faster results. Accelerated healing from illness and injury then enables more consistent peptide therapy.
Thymosin alpha-1 modulates immune function to provide more targeted defense against pathogens and cellular corruption. This peptide teaches immune cells to better recognize foreign invaders and activate according to real threats.
* Strengthens immune function against bacteria and viruses * Reduces systemic inflammation that leads to chronic conditions * Protects cell DNA from damage that causes cancer * Counters immunosenescence that weakens immunity with age * Improves vaccine immune response in older adults * Speeds up recovery time from infections or illness * Offers immune support during cancer treatment * Safe for long-term use without buildup of resistance
Thymosin alpha-1 stacks very well with other peptides, enhancing their benefits through improved immune surveillance.
Like BPC-157, thymosin beta-4 speeds tissue and wound repair throughout the body. This peptide mobilizes stem cells and signals gene expression for new blood vessel development.
* Accelerates recovery from sports injury * Reduces scarring by promoting regenerative healing * Alleviates eye injuries and even vision loss * Lessens damage after heart attack or stroke * Resolves chronic inflammatory conditions * Improves mobility in joints limited by arthritis * Promotes faster recovery after illness or surgery * Enhances effectiveness of platelet rich plasma therapy
Accelerating injury recovery with thymosin beta-4 enables more rapid results during peptide therapy programs.
Follistatin inhibits myostatin, thereby enabling greater muscle growth in response to exercise. Basically, the usual mechanisms that limit muscle growth get suppressed so patients can push past genetic limitations.
* Promotes increased muscle mass beyond genetic norms * Burns adipose fat tissue and tightens loose skin * Elevates bone mineral density * Accelerates muscle recovery between strength training sessions * Boosts energy levels and physical endurance * Enhances cognition, memory and sharpness * Brightens mood and motivation
For middle-aged adults struggling to achieve desirable muscle definition, follistatin can help push beyond the body’s comfortable set point.
One of the most popular peptides for weight loss, fragment 176-191 works by mimicking the fat burning effects of human growth hormone. Without unwanted side effects common with synthetic HGH, this peptide offers an appealing balance of safety and efficacy.
* Reduces stubborn deposits of belly, hip and thigh fat * Suppresses appetite to support calorie reduction * Boosts resting metabolic rate for greater passive fat burning * Prevents muscle loss typically associated with weight loss * Enhances fat metabolism, especially after eating carbs * Improves memory, focus and mental clarity * Protects neurons against dysfunction and degradation
For middle-aged adults who struggle losing weight through diet and exercise alone, fragment 176-191 can help accelerate fat reduction.
Delta sleep inducing peptide (DSIP) regulates circadian rhythm to promote greater REM and deep wave sleep. Since hormone regulation, tissue repair, memory consolidation, and other functions occur disproportionately during sleep, DSIP provides system wide benefits.
* Increases REM and deep wave sleep * Leaves patients feeling well rested * Enhances memory consolidation * Elevates mood through optimized serotonin and dopamine * Reduces nagging pain and systemic inflammation * Increases the body’s own production of peptides * Protects neurons and delays cognitive decline
DSIP sets patients up for success by ensuring restorative sleep that enables faster progress with peptide therapy.
Epithalon regulates gene expression of longevity proteins to postpone aging of the skin and body. Designed after endogenous epithalamin, this peptide essentially tricks cells into functioning as if younger despite advancing chronological age.
* Smoothes fine lines, wrinkles and crow’s feet * Improves skin elasticity and hydration * Reduces age spots and uneven pigmentation * Prevents graying and thinning of hair * Strengthens bones to prevent osteoporosis * Protects DNA against age-related mutations * Delays metabolic aging associated with muscle loss * Elevates overall sense of wellness and vitality
Epithalon is extraordinarily popular among anti-aging doctors because patients look and feel younger within just weeks.
