FAQs & Insights

Frequently Asked Questions

What is peptide therapy and how does it work at Med Matrix?

Peptide therapy involves using short chains of amino acids (peptides) that act as signalling molecules in the body. At Med Matrix, the treatment is tailored to the individual and aims to support natural healing, hormone balance, metabolism, immune function and vitality.

Common applications include low energy and fatigue, hormonal imbalances, weight issues, inflammation, immune function decline, slower recovery, and general vitality/healthy-aging goals.

Some of the peptides referenced include those that support growth hormone release (e.g., Sermorelin) and peptides used for weight management and visceral fat reduction (e.g., Tesamorelin), along with other options as appropriate. The clinic provides consultations and lab testing to develop a personalized treatment plan.

The process begins with an initial consultation and medical evaluation, possibly including advanced lab work to assess your hormone, metabolism, immune and repair systems. Then a peptide program is developed, and ongoing monitoring and support are provided to adjust the plan and track results.

While peptide therapy is described by the clinic as evidence-based and customized, it’s important to be aware that outcomes vary, any treatment has potential risks, and effectiveness depends on individual factors (age, lifestyle, health status). Consulting with a functional-medicine trained provider—as the clinic emphasises—is important.
