Trusted Pellet Therapy in Buckhead, GA

Hormones influence nearly every system in the body. They affect energy, mood, metabolism, sleep, mental clarity, and sexual health. While many people associate hormone changes with adolescence or menopause, hormone levels continue to shift throughout adulthood. Aging, stress, medical conditions, and lifestyle factors can all disrupt balance.

What is Pellet Therapy

Pellet Therapy is a form of hormone replacement that uses small bioidentical hormone pellets placed just beneath the skin. These pellets release a steady and consistent dose of hormones over several months to maintain stable levels throughout the day and night.

Unlike pills, creams, or injections that cause hormone levels to rise and fall, pellet therapy offers continuous support. This steady delivery means more reliable symptom relief and fewer fluctuations in how patients feel.

Best of all: the procedure is minimally invasive and performed in-office. Most patients return to normal activities with little disruption to their routine.

Why Men and Women Choose Pellet Therapy

While symptoms may differ in men versus women, the impact of hormone imbalance on quality of life can be equally significant. Both men and women benefit from pellet therapy when hormones fall out of balance.

With that said, men often seek treatment for low energy, reduced strength, decreased motivation, and changes in sexual health. Women may notice fatigue, mood swings, poor sleep, low libido, or difficulty maintaining muscle tone.

Pellet therapy addresses these issues in a custom fashion, and patients appreciate the convenience. Once pellets are placed, there’s no daily medication to remember. Treatment fits seamlessly into busy lives.

Pellet Therapy and Anti-Aging

Did you know that reduced or imbalanced hormone levels can contribute to muscle loss, slower recovery, mental fatigue, and decreased vitality? On the other hand, supporting hormone balance helps the body function more efficiently over time.

As it turns out, pellet therapy supports anti-aging goals by restoring what the body no longer produces in sufficient amounts. Rather than masking symptoms, this approach focuses on internal balance to help patients feel stronger, clearer, and more resilient as they age.

To be clear, this is not about reversing time; it’s about supporting healthy aging and improving how you feel today and in the years ahead.

Is hair reduction using laser permanent?

Treatment results may vary among patients. The Altus CoolGlide Laser is cleared by the FDA for Permanent Hair Reduction. The FDA defines permanent hair reduction as the long term, stable reduction in the number of hairs re-growing after a treatment regime.

Will it work on dark skin?

The Cutera CoolGlide Laser is FDA-approved for use in types I to VI skin, that is, from the whitest white to the darkest dark. Care is taken with the darker shades of skin, but excellent results can be obtained in black skin.

What does it feel like?

The laser treatment may feel like a mild sting for a fraction of a second. It has a built-in cooling tip that not only helps to protect the skin but also helps to minimize the discomfort.

How long do the treatments take?

An upper lip and chin can be done in 5 to 10 minutes. Underarms or bikini lines usually take 15 to 20 minutes. Legs and backs take longer. Very often, follow-up treatments are shorter (and less expensive) because there is much less hair to treat.

How many treatments are necessary?

This is very important to understand. Hair goes through 3 stages of development. Typically in the anagen stage, the hair will respond more effectively to treatment. At any given time, only one third of human hair is in the anagen stage. For this reason, it is necessary to treat an area at least 3 times with the treatments spaced approximately 6 weeks apart in order to see the best and longest lasting results. Darker hair will respond better, but both dark and light hair may need up to 5 treatments for maximum response and the best long-term results.

Results - What can I expect?

There is often no immediate change. Your skin may get slightly red or even develop a small crust that will peel. The laser may leave small red marks on your skin. The marks clear up in a few days. The hair that has been destroyed will not start to fall out for 2-3 weeks. Many times it will get darker and thicker just before it falls out. Don't worry if you do not see an obvious change immediately after your first treatment.
