What is Peptide Therapy?
According the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, peptides are cutting edge non-toxic amino acid sequences that are the newly emerging science of cell signaling, with far-reaching regulatory and rejuvenation actions on neurologic, immune, and hormone functionality. The specifically targeted use of peptides has the potential to rewrite bodily chemistry relationships, and ultimately generate a restorative trend towards health, wellness. and homeostasis. Peptides can also be utilized and applied in the treatment of injuries, with capabilities that help prevent chronic disease, and enhance peak performance.
Peptides are also available in a variety of products, including oral supplements, skincare products, or as injectable therapies. Lab-made peptides are used in medications for conditions like diabetes or multiple sclerosis due to their ability to mimic natural peptides. Different types of peptides play different roles in the body.
What does Peptide Therapy do?
Peptide therapy uses specific peptides to enhance body functions such as hormone production, tissue repair, and metabolism. It offers benefits like boosting growth hormone levels, improving muscle and tissue healing, supporting weight loss, enhancing immune function, and promoting anti-aging effects.
It can also improve cognitive function, sexual health, and overall wellness. Peptide therapy is often administered under medical supervision for targeted health goals.

Peptides: A Key Role
Generally, research indicates peptides can help:
- Lower high blood pressure
- Improve function of the immune system
- Reduce inflammation
- Strengthen the skin barrier to fight bacteria and promote healing
- Prevent blood clots
- Function as antioxidants
Peptides play a key role in cellular communication by interacting with various receptors. They trigger the release of signaling molecules and hormones, influencing numerous bodily processes.
The Many Benefits
Peptide therapy offers a range of benefits, depending on the specific peptides used and the health goals targeted.
Weight Loss: Peptides can help reduce appetite and increase metabolism, leading to effective weight loss and fat reduction.
Muscle Growth and Recovery: Peptides promote muscle growth and accelerate recovery from injuries by stimulating tissue repair and reducing inflammation.
Improved Hormonal Balance: Certain peptides regulate hormone levels, enhancing overall hormonal health, including increased testosterone or growth hormone levels.
Enhanced Immune Function: Peptides can strengthen the immune system, helping the body fight infections and improve overall health.
Anti-aging Effects: Peptides can stimulate collagen production, improve skin elasticity, and reduce wrinkles, contributing to a more youthful appearance.
Cognitive Enhancement: Some peptides may improve memory, focus, and cognitive function, potentially benefiting individuals with neurodegenerative diseases.
Better Metabolic Health: Peptides can improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar regulation, benefiting those with Type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome.
Support for Sexual Health: Peptides can enhance libido and treat erectile dysfunction, improving sexual performance and satisfaction.
Reduction of Inflammation: Many peptides have anti-inflammatory properties, aiding in the management of chronic inflammatory conditions.
Improved Overall Wellness: Peptide therapy can enhance energy levels, improve sleep quality, and contribute to overall vitality and well-being.
These benefits make peptide therapy a versatile option for individuals seeking to enhance their health and address specific medical or aesthetic concerns.
Peptide Menu
A powerful recovery peptide commonly used for sports injuries. It helps efficiently and rapidly repair damaged cartilage, tendons, and ligaments. For best results, it is typically injected directly at the site of injury.
Cerebrolysin Injection $75
Cerebrolysin supports neurological function and repair, and is widely used in Europe at higher IV doses to treat conditions such as stroke, dementia, Alzheimer’s, and traumatic brain injuries. At lower injectable doses, it targets chronic neurological imbalances and functions as a nootropic, enhancing brain performance by increasing BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) levels.
Epitalon/GHK Injection $45
This injectable combines two powerful peptides: Epithalon, which supports anti-aging, telomere preservation, and regulation of the circadian rhythm, and GHK-Cu, a copper-binding peptide that promotes tissue repair, collagen production, and skin regeneration.
Together, they help support cellular longevity, enhance antioxidant activity, improve sleep quality, and strengthen immune function. GHK-Cu also plays a key role in reducing inflammation and restoring skin health from within, making this a well-rounded option for both internal and external rejuvenation.
Epitalon supports more balanced circadian rhythms, and can help to optimize sleep. This is a powerful way to support you with stress adaptation and resilience, which may in turn lead to more restful sleep. Epitalon is used extensively in Europe for longevity and cycled for 10-14 days 1-2x yearly. Suggested dosing time is at night before bedtime.
GHK-Cu Peptide Injection $65
LL-37 Peptide Injection $65
Immune Defense + Cellular Repair LL-37 is a powerful antimicrobial peptide that supports the body’s first line of defense by helping to fight off bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Beyond its immune-boosting properties, LL-37 promotes wound healing, tissue regeneration, and modulates inflammation—making it a valuable tool for both acute infections and chronic inflammatory conditions. Ideal for those recovering from illness, battling recurrent infections, or seeking to enhance immune resilience, LL-37 helps the body respond more effectively to threats while supporting cellular repair and overall recovery.
Suggested use: 2–3 times per week during periods of illness, immune suppression, or for targeted recovery support.
MOTS-C Small Injection $65
Revitalize Energy at the Cellular Level
MOTS-C is one of the most powerful treatments available for restoring mitochondrial health. Mitochondria are tiny structures inside your cells that produce energy—think of them as your body’s natural batteries. Over time, and especially with chronic illness or stress, these energy producers can become sluggish or damaged, contributing to conditions like fatigue, Lyme disease, metabolic issues, and overall burnout.
MOTS-C helps your cells repair and recycle old, worn-out parts so they can function more efficiently. This renewal process supports whole-body energy, boosts resilience, and helps restore a healthy metabolic balance. It’s also known to support weight loss and fat metabolism, by mimicking the effects of exercise at the cellular level.
Recommended protocol: 1–2 injections per week for 3 to 8 weeks, depending on your goals. For best results, we suggest avoiding folate supplements the day of and the day after each injection.
MOTS-C Large Injection $130
Revitalize Energy at the Cellular Level

Semax/Selank $45
Calm Focus + Cognitive Clarity
This powerful nootropic blend combines Semax, known for enhancing memory, focus, and neuroprotection, with Selank, a calming peptide that helps regulate stress and anxiety. Together, they support balanced brain function, emotional resilience, and improved mental clarity—without the jittery side effects of stimulants. Ideal for those facing high levels of stress, burnout, brain fog, or focus challenges, Semax and Selank work synergistically to optimize cognitive performance and nervous system regulation. Many users report feeling more clear-headed, calm, and productive within hours.
Suggested use: 2–3 times per week during periods of high stress or cognitive demand, or as part of a regular brain wellness routine.
SS-31 Small Injection $65
A Powerful Alternative to NAD for Cellular Energy and Healthy Aging SS-31 is a next-generation peptide that works directly within the mitochondria, your body’s energy-producing structures, to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation at the cellular level. Unlike NAD injections, which support mitochondrial health indirectly, SS-31 targets the root of dysfunction by protecting and restoring mitochondrial membranes and optimizing their performance from within.
Early studies suggest SS-31 offers wide-ranging benefits for conditions linked to mitochondrial decline, including cognitive impairment, muscle aging, diabetes, osteoarthritis, glaucoma, and atherosclerosis. It has also shown promising results in enhancing muscle strength and endurance, which are essential for preserving mobility, bone density, and overall vitality as we age.
At BeWell, we view SS-31 as a more effective, direct, and modern alternative to NAD therapy. It delivers many of the same benefits such as improved energy, focus, and recovery, with potentially greater impact and fewer side effects.
