The Treatment
Aesthetic Peptides
Aesthetic peptides are short chains of amino acids, the same building blocks the body already uses to make collagen, elastin, and the proteins that hold the skin together. Delivered as a precise micro-injection, they act as targeted instructions, telling specific cells how to repair, regenerate, and rebalance.
Aesthetic peptides are not a volumiser and not a filler. They are a signalling treatment, designed to improve the underlying quality of the tissue, not to change its shape. Used selectively within a wider regenerative plan, they refine outcomes that placement-based treatments alone cannot reach. At 23MD, peptide injectables are prescribed only where they have a clear clinical rationale and sourced exclusively through regulated medical channels.

About
What it is, how it works.
How it works
After a medical consultation, your doctor selects the peptide formulation appropriate to your concern, skin quality, scalp, or tissue repair, and administers it through a series of fine micro-injections directly into the area being treated. Over the following weeks, the peptides bind to their target receptors and stimulate the skin or scalp's own regenerative response.
Why it matters
Aesthetic peptides are not a volumiser and not a filler. They are a signalling treatment, designed to improve the underlying quality of the tissue, not to change its shape. Used selectively within a wider regenerative plan, they refine outcomes that placement-based treatments alone cannot reach. At 23MD, peptide injectables are prescribed only where they have a clear clinical rationale and sourced exclusively through regulated medical channels.
