Understanding Peptides in Aesthetic & Wellness Care

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Because amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, peptides play a key role in many biological processes, including skin health, tissue repair, metabolism, and hormone regulation.

In the context of aesthetic and wellness care, peptides are valued for their ability to support the body’s natural processes by communicating specific signals to cells. Rather than forcing change, peptides work by encouraging balance, regeneration, and optimization at a cellular level.

How Peptides Work

Peptides bind to receptors on the surface of cells and signal the body to perform certain functions, such as producing collagen, supporting recovery, or regulating metabolic pathways. Because of this targeted communication, peptides are an area of growing interest in both regenerative medicine and aesthetic wellness.

Common Categories of Peptides

Peptides are often grouped by their primary function, including:

Regenerative Peptides

Supports tissue repair and recovery

Metabolic peptides

Influences appetite regulation and glucose balance

Hormone-supporting peptides

Stimulates the body’s natural hormone production

Peptides Offered Through La Vraie Beauté

La Vraie Beauté provides access to a curated selection of peptides through licensed medical professionals. These may include:

BPC-157

Has been studies for its potential role in supporting the body's natural repair processes. It has been researched in relation to soft tissue health, gut integrity, and recovery support.

TB-500

Associated with cellular migration and tissue support. It is commonly discussed in research focused on flexibility, mobility, and recovery from physical stress.

Sermorelin

A peptide that stimulates the body’s natural production of growth hormone by signaling the pituitary gland. It is often explored in wellness settings for its potential relationship to energy levels, body composition, sleep quality, and skin health.

Semaglutide

A GLP-1 receptor agonist that plays a role in appetite regulation and metabolic signaling. It has been widely studied in relation to weight management and blood sugar regulation.

Tirzepatide

A dual-action peptide that interacts with GLP-1 and GIP receptors, both of which are involved in metabolic and insulin signaling pathways. It has gained attention for its research-supported role in metabolic health and weight management.
