What Is Peptide Therapy?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids — the building blocks of proteins — that act as signaling molecules in the body. Different peptides send different signals: some tell your body to produce more growth hormone, others accelerate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, or stimulate collagen production. When these signals decline with age or stress, targeted peptide therapy can help restore them.
At Giffen Health, Lisa Giffen FNP-C prescribes peptide therapy as part of a comprehensive wellness approach — either standalone or integrated
with aesthetic treatments and the GIFN Fit weight loss program. All protocols are medically supervised and individually dosed.
Peptides We Offer at Giffen Health
-  BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound) — accelerates tissue healing, reduces inflammation, supports gut health and joint recovery. Popular with athletes and post-surgical clients.
- Semorelin — a growth hormone releasing peptide that stimulates your pituitary gland to produce more natural growth hormone. Supports lean muscle, fat loss, sleep quality, and anti-aging.
-  AOD-9604 — a fragment of the HGH molecule specifically shown to stimulate fat metabolism without the side effects of full HGH therapy. Often combined with GLP-1 medications in the GIFN Fit program. Peptides like AOD-9604 and BPC-157 are available as part of our GIFN Fit Medical Weight Loss Program.
- Ipamorelin / CJC-1295 — a powerful combination that stimulates a sustained pulse of growth hormone release, supporting body composition, recovery, and skin quality.
- PT-141 (Bremelanotide) — for sexual health and libido support in men and women.
-  Thymosin Alpha-1 — immune system modulation and
support.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
When prescribed and supervised by a licensed medical provider like Lisa Giffen FNP-C, peptide therapy has an excellent safety profile. Unlike synthetic hormones, peptides work by stimulating your body’s own natural processes rather than replacing them. All protocols at Giffen Health are individually assessed and monitored.
-
Most peptides are administered via small subcutaneous injections (similar to insulin injections) that clients can self-administer at home after a brief tutorial. Some peptides can also be taken as oral lozenges or nasal sprays. Lisa will determine the best delivery method for your specific protocol.
-
This varies by peptide and goal. BPC-157 for tissue healing can produce noticeable effects within 2–4 weeks. Growth hormone peptides like Semorelin typically show sleep and recovery improvements within 2–4 weeks, with body composition changes more visible at 3–6 months. Peptides work best as a sustained protocol, not a short course.
-
Absolutely — and this is where the Giffen Health difference really shines. Peptide therapy complements the GIFN Fit weight loss program (AOD and BPC-157 are particularly synergistic with GLP-1 medications), aesthetic treatments (collagen-stimulating peptides support laser and microchanneling results), and hormone optimization with BioTE. Collagen-stimulating peptides work synergistically with Microchanneling — ask Lisa about a combined protocol.
-
Yes — a medical consultation with Lisa is required before any peptide protocol begins. She reviews your health history, current medications, and goals to determine which peptides are appropriate and at what dose. This also ensures there are no contraindications with any existing conditions or treatments.
