What Are Peptides?
Peptides are short strings of amino acids—the building blocks of proteins—that act like biological signals in the body. When delivered through therapy, they can:
-
- Stimulate healing and repair
- Boost collagen and elastin for healthier skin
- Support fat metabolism and lean muscle
- Regulate hormones and energy
- Enhance recovery and overall vitality
Because peptides are naturally found in the body, treatment is generally well-tolerated and tailored to your goals.
