Anti-Aging Therapy

Consider anti-aging therapy if you have symptoms of a hormonal imbalance, like fatigue, unexplained weight changes, or frequent mood swings. These symptoms could be due to a number of different medical concerns, and should be evaluated by a medical provider. After a consultation, which includes thorough bloodwork review and physical exam, it may be determined that your symptoms are simply due to the natural aging process. At Austin Wellness Solutions, in Thornton and Westminster, Colorado, board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and hormone specialist Emily Austin, MS, APRN, FNP-C, offers anti-aging therapy using several methods including BioTe® bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, natural supplements, and a holistic approach to healthy aging. To schedule an anti-aging therapy consultation, call the office today or book online.

What is anti-aging therapy?

Anti-aging therapy can include bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, using plant-based hormones to restore your body to balance. It may also include recommendations for natural supplements, topical creams, or modification of lifestyle. 

As you age, your body stops producing as many hormones as it once did. Though a normal part of the aging process, these hormonal fluctuations can trigger a variety of uncomfortable symptoms and increase your risk of more serious health problems.

At Austin Wellness Solutions, Emily provides anti-aging therapy using BioTe bio-identical hormones, when medically appropriate. Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to the hormones that your body produces, but they’re compounded from natural resources.

Who should consider anti-aging therapy?

You may benefit from a consultation to determine appropriate anti-aging therapy if you develop any of the following symptoms:

• Unexplained weight gain or weight loss
• Depression or anxiety
• Fatigue
• Constipation 
• Diarrhea
• Being unable to tolerate temperature changes
• Irritability or mood swings
• Loss of libido
• Slow or rapid heartbeat

Some hormonal imbalances improve with healthy lifestyle changes, while others are chronic and require a combination of prescription medication and regular monitoring. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve your quality of life and prevent the imbalance from getting worse. 

What does anti-aging therapy involve?

At Austin Wellness Solutions, Emily provides anti-aging therapy using BioTe bioidentical hormone pellets and a variety of other holistic and medical interventions. 

First, Emily orders a series of lab tests to analyze your hormone levels. She reviews the results of your tests and determines the exact treatment that will most benefit you. Emily will explain the treatment plan and make sure you understand each recommendation fully and why the treatment plan is recommended. 

BioTe hormone therapy is administered with implantable pellets. Each dose is customized to your individual needs and based on extensive lab work. 

Placing the Biote pellets takes less than 15 minutes and requires minimal recovery period with no downtime. 

Are there different types of anti-aging therapy?

There are many methods of anti-aging therapy.  If BioTe is recommended for you, a customized treatment plan will be developed which may include supplements, dietary and lifestyle recommendations, as well as bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. After a review of your medical records, an in-office exam, and lab work, Emily can develop a custom treatment plan that helps you feel your best.
