A hormone deficiency can cause many problems for both men and women. Not just physical issues like lack of energy and decreased muscle mass but emotional and even sexual problems. And though people of any age can suffer from a hormone deficiency, it is more commonly found in people over 40.
Hormone Replacement Therapy uses various methods to help restore your hormones to optimal levels! Patients can benefit from increased mental, physical, and emotional health and wellness when taken with the correct dosage.

The Hormone Replacement Therapy Process
What to Expect?
Consultation
Before your hormone replacement therapy at Revive Wellness + Aesthetics, you'll meet with one of our providers for a consultation. We will discuss your concerns, symptoms, goals, and sensitivities. Based on this initial consultation and your lab values, we will create a personalized treatment plan for your needs, including oral, topical, or injectable medications.
Pellet Insertion Procedure
Our bioidentical pellets (testosterone in both men and women, estrogen in post-menopausal females) are inserted through a small puncture site in the hip area. They are slowly released over several months, providing the most effective natural form of replacement.
Results
You'll begin to experience the results of your hormone replacement therapy after several weeks, with full results coming after roughly 3 months.
