Your body already knows how to heal.
Peptides are how it signals.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids — naturally occurring signaling molecules that tell cells to repair, regenerate, and perform. As we age, those signals weaken. This page is a plain-English primer on what peptides are and how they’re used at HMI — as part of a comprehensive, lab-guided, provider-supervised plan. It’s educational information, not medical advice.
Precision medicine, not a supplement stack.
Reputable, verified sourcing
Every peptide we work with is sourced from trusted, verified suppliers — because quality matters as much as the protocol.
Lab-guided, provider-supervised
Any peptide protocol is based on your labs, symptoms, and goals — never a generic menu — and adjusted as your results evolve.
Integrated with your care
Peptides are considered alongside hormone optimization as one coordinated plan, not a standalone supplement stack.

Peptides discussed in concierge medicine.
The list below is educational — it describes what each peptide has been studied for. It is not a recommendation, a menu, or a promise of results. What (if anything) belongs in your plan is decided with a provider, based on your labs and history.
CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin
A widely used peptide combination studied for its role in prompting the pituitary to release growth hormone. Discussed in the context of body composition, sleep quality, and recovery.
Discussed for: body recomposition, sleep, recovery
BPC-157 (± TB-500)
Body Protection Compound — among the more extensively studied peptides in the recovery space. Researched for its role in the repair of connective tissue and the gut lining; sometimes paired with TB-500.
Discussed for: injury recovery, joints, gut health
Sermorelin
One of the longer-studied peptides in this category — a growth-hormone-releasing-hormone analog researched for gradually supporting the body’s own GH production.
Discussed for: healthy aging, GH decline
NAD+
A coenzyme involved in cellular energy metabolism. Levels decline with age; injectable NAD+ is often discussed as an at-home complement to in-clinic IV therapy.
Discussed for: energy, cognitive performance, longevity
GHK-Cu / GLOW blend
A copper-peptide complex studied for its effects on skin architecture, hair-follicle density, and connective tissue — a natural complement to our aesthetics services.
Discussed for: skin quality, hair, post-procedure recovery
Tesamorelin
A GHRH analog and the one peptide in this group with an FDA approval (for a specific indication), studied in the context of visceral (abdominal) fat and metabolic markers.
Discussed for: visceral fat, metabolic health

This material is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Peptide therapy should be prescribed and monitored by a qualified healthcare provider. Individual results vary. Some peptides are investigational and not FDA-approved for all indications. All HMI protocols are individualized based on your health history, labs, and provider assessment. Nothing on this page is a claim that any peptide treats, cures, or prevents any condition.
