Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in your body. Medical peptide therapy uses targeted peptides to support specific wellness goals — from growth hormone optimization and recovery to intimate health and body composition. At Chan Ramos MedSpa, every peptide protocol is prescribed and administered by a licensed CRNA with hospital-level safety standards. We source exclusively from licensed 503A/503B pharmacies and only offer peptides with established human safety data and FDA-compliant regulatory status.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in your body. They can stimulate specific biological processes like growth hormone release, immune function, or tissue repair. Medical peptide therapy uses targeted peptides to support wellness goals under clinical supervision.
Are peptides safe?
When prescribed by a licensed provider and sourced from regulated pharmacies, peptides have strong safety profiles. At Chan Ramos MedSpa, we only offer peptides with established human safety data and FDA-compliant regulatory status. All treatments are administered by a licensed CRNA.
Is this a prescription medication?
Yes. Medical-grade peptide therapy requires a prescription from a licensed provider. Your consultation includes a health assessment to determine which peptides are appropriate for your goals. Our CRNA prescribes and oversees all peptide protocols.
How are peptides administered?
Most peptide therapies are administered via subcutaneous injection, similar to insulin. Some peptides are available in topical or oral forms. Your provider will explain the administration method during your consultation.
Why don't you offer BPC-157?
BPC-157 is currently classified as a Category 2 bulk drug substance by the FDA, meaning it cannot be legally compounded for human use. The Department of Justice has actively prosecuted clinics offering it. We prioritize patient safety and legal compliance. If FDA status changes, we will update our offerings and notify our waitlist.
