The Benefits of Peptide Therapy

Peptides are amino acid chains that tell your cells what to do and when to do it.

Peptide Therapy harnesses the power of peptides to bring you revolutionary results.

Some peptides may promote lean muscle development, encourage healthy metabolic activity, and support faster recovery after physical activity.

Body Composition and Physical Performance

Peptides may promote lean muscle development, encourage a healthy body composition, and support faster recovery after physical activity.

Healthy Skin

Peptides are being studied for their ability to support skin health, elasticity, and vitality.

Certain peptides may help support cognitive function, focus, and mental clarity.

Cognitive Improvements

Certain peptides can help support cognitive function, focus, memory, and mental clarity.

A number of peptides play a role in regulating circadian rhythms, which may contribute to more consistent, restorative sleep patterns.

Better Sleep

Some peptide therapies are used to help support mitochondrial function and healthy energy levels throughout the day.

Energy and Metabolic Support

Some peptides are used to support healthy energy levels and improve metabolic function.

Select peptides may support the body’s natural production of hormones such as human growth hormone.

Human Growth Hormone Production

Select peptides encourage the body to produce human growth hormone (hGH), which is crucial for metabolism support, healing and recovery, and more.

Defy Medical's Integrative Approach

Our Care Team specializes in matching each patient with therapies that support their goals.

We utilize Peptide Therapy alongside comprehensive lab work and symptom-driven assessments, because peptides are never one-size-fits-all.

Your plan should be tailored to your biology, your symptoms, and your desired outcomes.

In studies, TB-500 demonstrates potential in treating deeper or more stubborn injuries.

It’s typically paired with BP-157 for greater effect. TB-500 may also reduce inflammation and promote new blood vessel growth.

Research points to benefits like:

  • Tissue repair and recovery
  • Supporting joint and muscle comfort

It stimulates the pituitary gland to release hGH in a more natural rhythm, rather than introducing synthetic hormones directly.

Research points to benefits like:

  • Supporting restful sleep and recovery
  • Promoting lean muscle development and healthy body composition
  • Enhancing energy levels and metabolism

Frequently Asked Questions About Peptide Therapy

Peptides can support many functions in the body, including energy production, tissue repair, metabolic health, hormone signaling, cognitive support, and sleep quality. Your Medical Provider will recommend peptides that align with your goals.

Most peptides are delivered through small subcutaneous injections. Some are available in alternate forms such as oral capsules, nasal sprays, or topical formulations depending on the peptide and its mechanism of action.

This varies by peptide and treatment goals. Some patients notice changes within weeks, while others may see gradual improvements over several months. Your Provider will track your progress and make adjustments as needed.

Peptides are not a substitute for Hormone Replacement Therapy. Instead, they may support hormone signaling or complement existing therapies, depending on your individualized plan.

Peptides offer potential benefits for many patients. Our Care Team will complete a full evaluation, including labs and symptom review, to determine whether peptide therapy is appropriate for your health profile and goals.

Yes. Many patients combine Peptide Therapy with Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT), Women’s Health treatments, thyroid support, and weight loss programs. Let your Defy Medical provider know you’re interested in combination treatment, and they’ll discuss your options with you.
