What Are Peptides?
Peptides are chains of amino acids that serve as the “building blocks” of protein synthesis.
​
While peptides are not a replacement for proteins, they are a micro version of the amino acids needed for cellular functions.
Peptide injections bypass the digestive system for enhanced effectiveness. At Swell Galveston, we offer peptide therapy injections for slower absorption.

What is Peptide Therapy?
"With each year that passes, the quality and number of peptides in the body declines"
​
This can have some devastating consequences such as poor muscle tone, bone loss, slow wound healing, weight gain, and skin that appears to age rapidly. Due to the incredible benefits of peptides, many beauty and health companies have cashed in by manufacturing and selling peptide-based products that vary in quality. Collagen skincare, peptide powders, and creatine peptide supplements line the shelves of gyms, vitamin shops, drugstores, and beauty supply chains. However, not all over-the-counter products are effective. Some contain trace amounts of unsafe ingredients or fail to work as advertised.​
​
Peptide therapy is unique in that it refuels the body with bioactive pharmaceutical grade peptides through direct injection to increase the count and quality of peptides. This enables the body to facilitate cellular repair and enhance overall biological functioning. Skin health improves, as does the ability to gain lean muscle mass. Swell customizes your peptide treatments based on your unique needs and goals. Pharmaceutical peptide development is held to the most stringent standards to ensure the highest level of safety and efficacy.

Whether you are recovering from a marathon, dealing with nagging joint pain, or looking for a preventative way to fight off illness and premature aging, our Peptide therapy at Swell Galveston helps you heal for real!

Benefits of Peptide Therapy
Dubbed “the future of regenerative medicine,” peptide therapy has a host of beneficial uses, including:
Skin Health
Your skin, nails, and hair are made of proteins. Collagen peptides can restore more youthful-looking features that have faded with age. Research shows peptide therapy can improve skin hydration and elasticity to diminish wrinkles and keep them at bay.
Athletic Performance
Creatine peptides are excellent for building muscle, improving endurance, and enhancing athletic performance. They also reduce inflammation and promote faster recovery times after intense workouts. Peptide proteins deliver amino acids to stimulate the body’s production of certain hormones for a specific response. Unlike oral supplements, there is no need to worry about digestive upset.
Anti Aging
Research suggests peptides may improve bone mass, which is a crucial concern for individuals who are getting older. Peptides are also ideal for increasing muscle mass, suggesting that peptide therapy can reverse or slow down age-related muscle atrophy. It is also an effective way to stave off wrinkles caused by collagen and elastin loss in the skin.
Fat Metabolism
Research suggests peptides may support fat metabolism in people trying to lose weight. Most individuals experience faster and more pronounced effects by combining therapies for strategic weight loss. If your primary concern is losing a few inches, Swell also offers accessory treatments such as the IR Sauna, Cold Plunge, and lipotropic injections to further your peptide therapy results. The InBody body scan at Swell allows you to track and measure your progress.
Who is a candidate for Peptide Therapy?
If you want to reverse signs of aging, feel younger, gain muscle mass, or lose fat, then peptide therapy at Swell Galveston might be just what you need. People who are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or who have a complicated health condition may not be the best candidates. Swell has a host of novel treatments to help you achieve your goals. To find out if peptide therapy or alternatives are in your best interest, give Swell a call to learn about your options. Swell offers a diverse range of technologically advanced health and beauty services.
Peptide Therapy Recovery
There is no recovery time. Since subcutaneous injections are more superficial than intramuscular injections, you will not experience much, if any, discomfort afterward. Side effects are exceedingly rare since peptides are naturally present in the foods you eat.
Peptide Therapy Results
Peptide therapy takes time to work, but the results are worth it. Your results may vary depending on your treatment plan and your specific dose of peptides. Your Swell provider will work with you until you achieve your desired outcome.
