Peptide therapy
About
Peptide therapy is an active, regenerative treatment designed to rejuvenate all subcutaneous layers of the skin and stimulate the production of new collagen. By using peptide therapy, we stimulate fibroblasts (the cells that produce collagen) through the application of amino acids, thereby reducing oxidative stress. Antioxidants are well-known for their health benefits because they decrease oxidative stress.
Oxidative stress is a condition associated with the oxidation of cells. Oxidation of cells is a normal process—oxygen in the cells, which nourishes and maintains them, also contributes to their so-called biological rusting, or oxidation. The product of oxidation is aging. Excessive oxidation—caused by consuming too many substances that break down into free radicals, or "reactive oxygen species"—leads to oxidative stress. Exposure to oxidative stress accelerates aging and cell degradation, potentially resulting in various diseases. Therefore, it's crucial to reduce oxidative stress by introducing antioxidants into the body.
Peptide therapy represents an intensive and therapeutic biorevitalization of the skin through the use of high concentrations of essential amino acids: lysine, proline (hydroxyproline), and glycine, which are integral to the structure of collagen. Peptide therapy falls under skin boosters that significantly enhance the appearance, structure, and quality of the skin. It provides optimal tissue nourishment, improves hydration and elasticity, and restores tone. The skin appears fresh, radiant, and more elastic.
Peptides act on the root cause of fat formation in fat cells and prevent fat accumulation. They have a fat breakdown effect and are used for smaller fat deposits.
Peptide therapy is used for:
- Firming and shaping the skin of the face, neck, and décolleté
- Rejuvenation and aging prevention
- Deep nutrition and hydration of the skin
- Reducing wrinkles
- Evening out skin tone and lightening hyperpigmentation
- Reducing hard under-eye bags
- Treating the double chin and lower jaw
- Treating the abdomen (love handles)
- Reducing cellulite
- Treating the area known as "riding pants" and thighs
- Reducing stretch marks
- Rejuvenating the hands
- Removing fat deposits on the knees
Candidate
The treatment is recommended for individuals who wish to firm and shape the skin of the face, neck, and décolleté, rejuvenate and prevent aging, and reduce fat deposits.
Preparation
30 minutes before the treatment, a local anesthetic cream is applied to the client.
Treatment
Using a cannula, peptides are applied beneath the skin, where they painlessly dissolve fat tissue.
Result
Initial results are visible a few weeks after the treatment and continue to improve over time. There is no downtime.
