Dr. Bartholomew takes a personalized approach to your care, helping you explore the available evidence, potential benefits, and risks so you can make informed decisions about your wellness journey.
What Is Peptide Therapy?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that play important roles in the body’s biological processes. Depending on their structure, they can act as signaling molecules involved in metabolism, hormone regulation, immune function, and tissue maintenance.
Interest in peptide therapy continues to grow as researchers investigate how specific peptides may be used in medicine. However, their effects, safety profiles, and clinical applications vary considerably. Not all peptides have established benefits for healthy aging, recovery, or general wellness.
At TELOS Medical Aesthetics, our approach emphasizes medical guidance, a careful review of the available evidence, and an individualized assessment of potential treatment options. Our goal is to help you understand which approaches may be appropriate for your needs while prioritizing your health and safety.

Our Commitment to Your Care
-
Physician-Guided Treatment: Your consultation includes a review of your medical history, current medications, and wellness goals to determine whether a particular therapy may be appropriate.
-
Responsible Sourcing: When legally available, medications are obtained through appropriately licensed U.S. pharmacies. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved, and their quality, safety, and effectiveness are not evaluated by the FDA in the same manner as approved drugs.
-
Transparent Medical Guidance: We explain the intended use, available evidence, regulatory status, potential benefits, and limitations of each treatment option before proceeding.
-
Individualized Risk Assessment: Potential side effects vary by compound and may include injection-site reactions, fluid retention, gastrointestinal symptoms, or other medication-specific risks. Your provider will discuss relevant precautions and monitoring requirements with you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a prescription for peptide therapy?
Prescription requirements depend on the specific compound and formulation. At TELOS Medical Aesthetics, we begin with a medical consultation to review your health history, discuss your goals, and determine whether a particular treatment is clinically appropriate. A prescription is provided only when medically indicated and legally permitted.
How are peptides administered?
Administration depends on the specific compound. Certain prescription therapies are administered by subcutaneous injection, while others may have different routes of administration. If an injectable treatment is prescribed, our team will explain the proper administration technique, storage requirements, and safety precautions.
When can I expect to see results?
The timeline varies considerably depending on the compound, treatment goal, individual response, and consistency of care. Some patients may notice changes within weeks, while other outcomes require a longer period of treatment. Results are not guaranteed, and your provider will discuss realistic expectations and appropriate follow-up.
Are all peptides hormones?
No. Peptides are chains of amino acids, and some function as hormones or hormone-like signaling molecules, while others act through different biological pathways. Their functions and potential clinical applications depend on their individual structures and mechanisms of action.
