PEPTIDE THERAPY in The Colony TX

Peptides are short chains of amino acids (the building blocks of protein) that act as signaling molecules in the body.
Think of them as “messengers” that tell your body to perform specific tasks like:
• Repairing tissue
• Building muscle
• Improving skin quality
• Supporting fat metabolism
• Enhancing recovery
They work by stimulating your body’s natural processes.

Different peptides target different goals. Depending on the type, peptides may help with:

• Muscle and soft tissue recovery
  • Injury healing
  • Fat metabolism
  • Skin regeneration
  • Hair support
  • Energy and performance
  • Hormone optimization

Your provider will recommend the right protocol based on your goals.

At Stonebridge Health, we offer clinically sourced peptides such as:
• BPC-157 – Soft tissue healing & recovery
• TB-500 – Muscle repair & injury support
• CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin – Recovery & body composition
• AOD-9604 – Fat metabolism support
• GHK-Cu – Skin regeneration & aesthetic support
Availability may vary based on medical appropriateness.

BPC-157 and TB-500 are commonly used for muscle, tendon, and ligament recovery.
They are often recommended for athletes or individuals healing from injury.

Your provider will determine if one or a combination is appropriate.

GHK-Cu is commonly used to support:
• Skin elasticity
• Collagen production
• Hair support
• Overall skin appearance

Some growth hormone-supporting peptides may also indirectly improve skin quality over time.

Most peptides are administered:
• Once daily
• Twice daily
• Or several times per week

The exact frequency depends on the peptide and your individualized plan.

All injections are small, subcutaneous (similar to insulin), and patients are taught proper technique.

No.

Peptides are not anabolic steroids and they are not synthetic growth hormone.

Some peptides stimulate your body’s own natural hormone production, but they do not replace hormones or act like steroids.

When prescribed appropriately and obtained through licensed compounding pharmacies, peptides are generally well tolerated.

Like any medical therapy, they:
• Require proper screening
• May require labs
• Should be monitored by a provider

We strongly advise against purchasing peptides online from unregulated sources.

Most patients tolerate peptides well.

Possible side effects may include:
• Mild injection site irritation
• Temporary fatigue
• Headache
• Water retention (with certain peptides)
• Increased appetite (depending on type)

Your provider will review risks before starting.

Some patients notice changes within 2–4 weeks.

However, most peptide protocols require:
• 8–12 weeks for measurable improvement
• Longer courses for optimal benefit

Results depend on:
• Your health baseline
• Consistency
• Lifestyle habits

Peptides support your body — they are not instant fixes.

Some peptides require baseline lab work. Others may not.

This depends on:
• Your medical history
• Your goals
• The specific peptide being considered

Your provider will determine if labs are necessary.

Most peptides:
• Must be refrigerated after mixing
• Should be protected from light
• Must be used within a specific timeframe

You will receive detailed storage instructions with your prescription.

Supplements provide nutrients that support general health.

Peptides are prescription-based therapies that:
• Directly signal specific biological pathways
• Target specific outcomes
• Require medical oversight

They are more targeted than over-the-counter supplements.

Peptide programs can range from $80 to $1,000+ per month, depending on:

• The specific peptide(s)
  • Dosing protocol
  • Duration of therapy
  • Whether labs are required

Final pricing is discussed during your consultation so we can customize a plan that aligns with your goals and fits comfortably within your budget.
