Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a vital hormone produced in the pituitary gland that plays a key role in growth, cell regeneration, and metabolism. As we age, HGH levels naturally decline, leading to undesirable effects.
Some signs of declining HGH levels include:
HGH therapy involves injections of bioidentical human growth hormone to restore levels back to a youthful range. There are two main types of HGH therapy protocols:
HGH therapy should only be undertaken with medical supervision to ensure proper dosing and monitoring.
HGH therapy may be an option if you have low HGH levels accompanied by multiple undesirable symptoms or health risks. A blood test is required to measure your IGF-1 and confirm a true need for treatment. Our practitioners can determine if you are a candidate.
When administered properly under medical guidance, increasing growth hormone back to youthful ranges provides an impressive array of health and aesthetic benefits:
- Thicker, fuller hair - Improved skin thickness, texture, and elasticity - Stronger nails with less breakage - Reduced wrinkles and age spots
- Improved mood, motivation and sense of wellbeing - Sharper memory and cognitive function - Better sleep quality and higher libido - Faster healing and recovery from injuries - Strengthened immune system
Our practitioners carefully screen patients prior to treatment to ensure safety. We provide ongoing monitoring and support to help you achieve your wellness goals.
Since low growth hormone levels develop gradually with age, a deficiency often goes undiagnosed for years. Symptoms are often incorrectly chalked up to "normal aging". Diagnostic blood testing is required to confirm below optimal levels.
Telltale symptoms of a growth hormone deficiency include:

Both somatropin and sermorelin growth hormone therapies involve subcutaneous injections just under the skin, typically using an ultra-fine needle. Two main approaches include:
Self-administration at home is easily learned. Most patients transition to self-injections after starting therapy under staff guidance.
In addition to injections, we offer guidance on lifestyle changes to enhance HGH therapy results, including:
While often associated with illegal performance enhancement, HGH therapy is FDA-approved to treat growth failure in children and hormone deficiency in both children and adults, improving muscle mass, bone density, and metabolism when used appropriately under medical supervision.
