BioTE® Hormone Replacement Therapy
The hormone testosterone performs several important processes throughout the body. For both men and women, hormone production decreases as early as the mid-20s or early 30s. After the age of 40, many men see a significant drop in testosterone, which can cause symptoms of a hormone imbalance. The most common signs of hormone imbalance in men include the following:
- Low sex drive
- Fatigue
- Loss of muscle mass
- Increased body fat (especially in the waist area)
- Decreased bone mass
- Mood changes
- Low mood
- Irritability
- Brain fog
- Elevated blood sugar
- Stress
- Anxiousness
- High cholesterol
The BioTE method of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy uses compounded pellets (about the size of a grain of rice) that contain testosterone. These hormones are bioidentical to those already present in the body and work to restore hormones to optimal levels.
BioTE pellets are placed just beneath the skin in the buttock area, releasing a continuous stream of hormones for more consistent blood levels in comparison to other forms of hormone replacement therapies like injections, creams, and patches. Once inserted, the pellets dissolve slowly over the next five to six months in men.
Hair Loss Treatments
We offer physician-directed solutions such as PRP, PRFM, and Nutrafol to help slow shedding, stimulate growth, and restore thinning hair with natural-looking results.
Nutrafol® for Men
Nutrafol’s physician-formulated supplements support men’s hair growth by addressing root causes like stress, DHT, and poor nutrition, without compromising sexual function.
Vitamin B12 Injections
We offer Vitamin B12 injections. Vitamin B12 is an essential, water-soluble nutrient that plays a vital role throughout the body. It can be obtained from a diet that includes animal-based foods like meat, fish, eggs, dairy, fortified breakfast cereal, and oral supplements.
B12 plays a role in many functions of the body involving the nervous, cardiovascular, and immune systems. It may also improve mood, mental health, cognitive function, metabolism, skin, hair, and nails. When taken as an intramuscular injection, patients report the added benefits of increased energy and improved mood. Most patients notice an energy boost in the first 24-48 hours.
Dermal Fillers
Volume loss in the face ages both men and women. As in women, Dr. Noll uses dermal fillers to soften the shadows that age the face, without feminizing the face, unless that is the desired result. Dr. Noll always says that the best compliment she gets from her filler work is when her patients’ closest friends and family cannot tell exactly what the patient has had done, but that her patient looks rested.
It is a very exciting time for fillers, as the industry is quickly advancing. Over the years, the dermal filler industry has made many advances. The newest edition is a jawline-specific filler called Juvederm Volux, designed to enhance the jawline.
CoolSculpting®
Body sculpting with CoolSculpting removes unwanted fat without the downtime of traditional liposuction. In addition to the usual areas like the abdomen, love handles, and chin, men are also taking advantage of this technology to treat “man boobs” or gynecomastia.
CoolTone®
One of the best-kept secrets in our office is our muscle-toning device, CoolTone. There is a reason the abdominal muscles are called the core muscles. A strong core can improve almost any physical activity. Several of our patients who are athletes representing a spectrum of sports like cycling, yoga, cross-country, soccer, and bodybuilding have reported improved performance within their respective disciplines and in overall fitness.
BOTOX
BOTOX in men is one of our fastest-growing procedures. As BOTOX becomes more mainstream, men are embracing both the corrective and preventative benefits of BOTOX. Like in women, it is easier to prevent wrinkles than to undo them.
