What Are Peptides?

Peptides exist naturally in the body as amino acid chains that signal numerous biological processes. FDA-approved peptide therapy utilizes these powerful components as part of aesthetic and wellness treatments, addressing concerns ranging from sexual dysfunction and weight gain to joint pain, hair loss, and signs of aging.

Administered as subcutaneous injections, peptides are delivered directly into the bloodstream. They can also be taken orally or topically. The dosage and frequency of peptide treatments are determined through careful planning and a detailed private consultation. Results typically emerge within around one month of beginning the therapy.

What Are the Benefits of Peptides?

We offer a variety of peptides to choose from, allowing for a high degree of treatment customization. Peptide therapy in Westlake Village provides the following key benefits:

  • Increased energy and stamina
  • A boost in metabolism
  • Improved sleep quality
  • Enhanced fat-burning
  • Optimized collagen production
  • Heightened cognitive function
  • Healthier joints and muscles
  • Thicker, more vibrant hair strands
  • A stronger immune system
  • Expedited recovery after injury
  • Improved sexual function
  • Increased weight loss

Who Is a Good Candidate for Peptide Injections?

Peptide therapy is suitable for patients in good physical and mental health who could use a boost in their self-care routine and who have not achieved their desired results through supplementation or diet. Whether you are struggling with weight gain, aging, injury, fatigue, hair loss, or poor sleep, peptide therapy can help you achieve your unique goals for an attractive appearance and optimal well-being. Dr. Schwartz and his team will conduct a thorough consultation process to make sure peptides are the right choice for you.

What Conditions Can Peptides Treat?

Peptides are designed to treat a wide range of wellness and beauty concerns, such as poor sleep, weight gain, fatigue, low sex drive, inflammation, aging, and impeded recovery after illness or injury.

How Do Peptides Work?

Peptides communicate with molecules in the body to enhance certain biological functions and restore optimal wellness. They can aid in collagen production, tissue repair, sleep regulation, and more.

Are There Any Potential Risks or Side Effects With Peptides?

There is little risk of serious side effects with peptides. They occur naturally in the body and in foods we consume, so allergic reactions are extremely rare. You may, however, experience mild redness, swelling, and tenderness at the injection sites. These symptoms usually fade within a few hours.

Can I Combine Peptides With Other Treatments?

Yes. We can pair peptide therapy with other non-surgical solutions, as well as with plastic surgery procedures performed by Dr. Schwartz and Dr. Stark. Peptides are known to accelerate recovery and can actively boost collagen and elastin output.

How Do I Take Peptides?

Peptide therapy is typically administered via injections. However, it is also possible to take peptides orally or topically in the comfort of your own home.

When Can I See My Results?

Rather than producing results immediately like dermal fillers, peptides take time to show their positive effects. It can take 2-4 weeks before you begin noticing improvements in your energy, appearance, and well-being.

Who Should Avoid Peptides?

Peptide therapy may be contraindicated for those with the following characteristics:

  • Pregnant and/or breastfeeding
  • Certain cancers and medications
  • Brain disorders
