What is Peptide Therapy?

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that bind to receptors in your cells. They then act as signaling molecules that trigger a range of biological responses, such as stimulating collagen production, releasing hormones, and supporting muscle growth and tissue repair.

Peptide therapy is a way to target specific receptors to improve the corresponding body functions. While peptides come in many forms, injections have the best absorption rate. Dr. Mehta will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan based on your health and anti-aging goals.

Offers Personalization

Peptides can be sent exactly where they need to go in your body, meaning treatment can be customized to your specific needs and goals.

Works With Other Treatments

Peptide therapy can be paired with other treatments (e.g., hair restoration, microneedling, weight loss) for a synergistic effect that maximizes results.

Combats Age-Related Decline

Peptide therapy replenishes peptide levels to activate cellular regrowth, which can help slow or reverse the signs of aging inside and out.

What Can Peptide Therapy Be Used For?

Peptide therapy can be used for:

Anti-aging and skin rejuvenation
Hormonal balance
Immune system support
Hair restoration
Muscle building
Weight management and metabolic support
Accelerated healing
Joint and muscle pain relief
Cognitive enhancement
Chronic disease and pain management

FAQ

Is peptide therapy safe?

In the hands of a licensed medical professional, peptide therapy is safe. It has been used to treat medical conditions for over a century. In fact, the first peptide scientists made in a lab was insulin for the treatment of type 1 diabetes.

Peptides are well-tolerated by most people and there are minimal side effects. They’re found naturally in food and when used for therapeutic purposes, they’re broken down into amino acids the body can recycle.

However, it’s important to avoid getting peptides from unregulated sources as the quality or purity may not be as advertised, increasing the risk of adverse effects.

At Oasis Vein and Vitality, we use medical-grade peptides made by a trusted, FDA-certified lab partner. Dr. Mehta will determine if peptide therapy is right for you based on your health and medical history. If it is, he’ll monitor you and adjust your dosage, if needed, to optimize the therapy.

How are peptides administered?

While peptides come in many forms, including pills, creams and nasal sprays, and it will depend on your needs and preferences, we generally administered them via subcutaneous injection. Injecting peptides delivers them to the bloodstream, enhancing absorption.

How does peptide therapy work?

When you visit us for peptide therapy in Scottsdale or Prescott, we’ll start with a consultation. Dr. Mehta will evaluate your health, lab work and medical history to determine if peptide therapy is ideal for you. If it is, he’ll work with you to create a personalized treatment plan.

The exact mechanisms of action depend on the specific peptides used. For example, growth hormone-releasing peptides bind with growth hormone receptors, potentially helping to boost your metabolic rate, support tissue repair and preserve lean muscle mass.
