Each patient’s symptoms are unique, and so is each path to hormone optimization through BHRT. At The Aesthetics Lounge and Spa Venice, we offer Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) using plant-derived hormone pellets. These pellets are inserted under the skin typically in the hip or buttock and gradually dissolve over 3-6 months, releasing consistent, physiological doses of estradiol, testosterone, and/or progesterone without daily dosing.

Most patients experience relief by about four weeks, with full symptom optimization by six months or after a second insertion. Pellets are custom-compounded, using your lab results and BMI to ensure precise hormone balance.

Ideal candidates include menopausal or perimenopausal women, men with low testosterone, and transgender individuals seeking stable delivery. Pellets are not suitable for those with hormone-sensitive cancers, clotting disorders, uncontrolled cardiovascular disease, or who are pregnant/nursing.

Key benefits include steady symptom relief like reduced hot flashes and improved mood, libido, energy, bone density, and metabolic support plus the convenience of 2-4 insertions per year.

Common mild side effects: bruising, tenderness at insertion site, mood shifts, bloating, or acne. Rare but serious risks align with other systemic HRT blood clots, stroke, gallbladder disease, and certain cancers. Since pellets are compounded, we adhere to strict USP/GMP standards and closely monitor you with regular lab checks to ensure safety and potency.
