Evidence-based peptide treatments. We only offer what's legal, safe, and effective.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in your body. Medical peptide therapy uses targeted peptides to support specific wellness goals — from growth hormone optimization and recovery to intimate health and body composition. At Chan Ramos MedSpa, every peptide protocol is prescribed and administered by a licensed CRNA with hospital-level safety standards. We source exclusively from licensed 503A/503B pharmacies and only offer peptides with established human safety data and FDA-compliant regulatory status.

FDA Status: FDA Category 2 — banned from compounding. Active DOJ enforcement.
We prioritize patient safety and legal compliance. BPC-157 has not undergone adequate human safety testing, and the FDA has identified immunogenicity and impurity risks. We will not offer it unless the FDA clears it for compounding. Join our waitlist to be notified if status changes.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in your body. They can stimulate specific biological processes like growth hormone release, immune function, or tissue repair. Medical peptide therapy uses targeted peptides to support wellness goals under clinical supervision.
When prescribed by a licensed provider and sourced from regulated pharmacies, peptides have strong safety profiles. At Chan Ramos MedSpa, we only offer peptides with established human safety data and FDA-compliant regulatory status. All treatments are administered by a licensed CRNA.
Yes. Medical-grade peptide therapy requires a prescription from a licensed provider. Your consultation includes a health assessment to determine which peptides are appropriate for your goals. Our CRNA prescribes and oversees all peptide protocols.
Most peptide therapies are administered via subcutaneous injection, similar to insulin. Some peptides are available in topical or oral forms. Your provider will explain the administration method during your consultation.
BPC-157 is currently classified as a Category 2 bulk drug substance by the FDA, meaning it cannot be legally compounded for human use. The Department of Justice has actively prosecuted clinics offering it. We prioritize patient safety and legal compliance. If FDA status changes, we will update our offerings and notify our waitlist.
Peptide therapy pricing varies by peptide type, dosage, and treatment duration. We offer a free initial consultation to discuss your goals and provide transparent pricing before any treatment begins.
Peptides are signaling molecules that stimulate your body's own natural processes. Steroids are synthetic hormones that directly replace or supplement your hormones. Peptides like sermorelin encourage your body to produce more growth hormone naturally, rather than introducing synthetic hormones.
Results vary by peptide and individual. Sermorelin patients typically notice improved sleep within 1-2 weeks, with body composition and recovery improvements developing over 3-6 months of consistent treatment.
Yes. Many patients combine peptide therapy with other wellness treatments like IV therapy, hormone optimization, or aesthetic services. Your provider will create an integrated plan during your consultation.
In Texas, peptides that can be legally prescribed and compounded include sermorelin, semaglutide, and tirzepatide. PT-141 (Vyleesi) is FDA-approved but not currently offered at our clinic. Several other peptides including CJC-1295 and ipamorelin are in regulatory review and may become available. BPC-157 is currently banned nationwide by the FDA.
The best way to find out is a free consultation. We will review your health history, discuss your goals, and recommend peptides that are appropriate for your situation. There is no pressure and no obligation.
Some peptides like Semax and Selank are being researched for cognitive benefits, but none are FDA-approved for brain fog or cognitive enhancement. Many patients find that addressing underlying causes — hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, poor sleep, or metabolic dysfunction — produces the mental clarity they are looking for. Our hormone therapy, IV therapy, and lab services can identify and treat these root causes today.
Peptides like sermorelin support your body's natural growth hormone production, which plays a role in skin quality, energy, muscle maintenance, and recovery — all factors in how you age. Sermorelin is one of the few peptides with an established safety profile and legal status for clinical use. For a comprehensive anti-aging approach, many patients combine peptide therapy with treatments like PRP therapy, IV therapy, and skin rejuvenation.
BPC-157 gained popularity for recovery, but it is currently banned by the FDA. For legal, evidence-based recovery support, sermorelin promotes growth hormone release which aids tissue repair and recovery. PRP therapy (platelet-rich plasma) is another proven option we offer for joint, tissue, and hair restoration. We recommend starting with a consultation to build a recovery protocol based on your specific needs.
Yes — some of the most effective weight loss treatments today are peptides. Semaglutide and tirzepatide are FDA-approved GLP-1 peptides that have shown significant results in clinical trials. We offer both through our medically supervised weight loss program, which includes comprehensive lab work, regular provider check-ins, and ongoing support.
Semaglutide and tirzepatide are peptides — specifically GLP-1 receptor agonists. They are FDA-approved and have gone through rigorous clinical trials. Most other peptides discussed online (like BPC-157 or Semax) have not been through this approval process, which is why their regulatory status is different.
You should never buy peptides online from unregulated sources. FDA testing has found that up to 40% of online peptides contain incorrect dosages or undeclared ingredients. Medical-grade peptides require a prescription and should be sourced from licensed 503A or 503B compounding pharmacies. At Chan Ramos MedSpa, all peptides are prescribed by our CRNA and sourced exclusively from licensed pharmacies.
Peptide therapy uses signaling molecules to stimulate your body's own hormone production — for example, sermorelin tells your pituitary gland to produce more growth hormone. Hormone therapy (like bioidentical hormone replacement) directly supplements hormones your body is no longer producing enough of. Some patients benefit from one or both, depending on their lab results and goals.
