What does PT-141 peptide treatment look like?

PT 141 is administered via subcutaneous injection, since other forms of peptides like pills, creams, and sprays have little efficacy. At AgeRejuvenation, a 2-milligram dose is generally effective for men and women about 1 hour prior to sexual activity. Our providers generally suggest starting with a 1-milligram test dose and injecting a similar amount 30 minutes later; testing PT 141 in increments to gauge response is considered the safest approach.

How long does PT-141 take to work?

While some patients respond to PT 141 in minutes, it can take others with sexual dysfunction several hours to notice any changes. Patients will typically see these effects last up to 72 hours following the initial injection.

Does age rejuvenation offer other sexual dysfunction treatments?

AgeRejuvenation offers a variety of hormonal, weight loss, and anti-aging treatments, just like peptide therapy. Other treatments we offer include the P-shot, which helps men with erectile dysfunction. For women, we offer the O-shot to treat low desire, Female Sexual Arousal Disorder, Female Orgasmic Disorder, and dyspareunia, or pain during sexual activity. Both treatments are administered via injection during an in-office procedure.

GLOW Peptide Therapy: Where Aesthetic Medicine and Cellular Regeneration Finally Meet

Most people who walk into a clinic asking about "anti-aging" are really asking two completely different questions at once. They want to look better — sharper skin, fewer lines, a face that matches the energy they still feel inside. And they want to feel better — recover faster, hurt less, get back the resilience that used to be automatic. For decades, those two goals have been treated as separate categories. Aesthetic medicine handled the surface. Regenerative medicine handled the function. GLOW peptide therapy was designed to collapse that division. It is a precision-built peptide stack that works on the same biological systems whether you are trying to repair a torn ligament or restore the firmness of skin around your eyes — because at the cellular level, those processes are the same. At AgeRejuvenation's Wesley Chapel, South Tampa, Brandon, Orlando, and Winter Garden locations, GLOW has become one of the most requested protocols. Not because it is trendy. Because it produces the kind of results that conventional aesthetics and conventional recovery cannot.

The Three Peptides Inside the GLOW Stack and Why They Decide How You Heal

To understand why GLOW matters, you have to understand the three peptides that compose it. GLOW is not a single molecule — it is a strategic combination of three peptides, each chosen for a specific role in cellular repair and regeneration. GHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide) is the cornerstone of the stack. When GHK-Cu is restored, the effects are striking. It signals fibroblasts to ramp up collagen and elastin synthesis. It activates antioxidant defense systems. It has been shown in laboratory studies to reset gene expression patterns toward a younger profile across thousands of genes simultaneously. The phrase "wakes up the skin" undersells it — GHK-Cu reactivates an entire cellular regeneration program. BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide derived from a protective compound naturally found in human gastric juice. Its name — Body Protective Compound — is functional. BPC-157 accelerates healing across virtually every tissue type studied: tendons, ligaments, muscle, bone, skin, gut lining, blood vessels. The mechanism involves stimulating new blood vessel formation (angiogenesis), modulating inflammation, and supporting growth factor signaling at sites of damage. TB-500 is a synthetic version of thymosin beta-4, a peptide involved in cell migration and tissue repair. Its primary value is mobilizing repair cells to where they are needed and supporting the formation of new blood vessels in damaged tissue. TB-500 pairs particularly well with BPC-157 — where BPC-157 accelerates the healing response, TB-500 helps direct it.

How GLOW Works to Support Regeneration

Together, these three peptides cover the major levers of regenerative biology: collagen synthesis, vascular support, inflammation control, and cellular migration. Run them simultaneously, and you create an environment in which the body repairs itself the way it did decades earlier.

BPC-157

BPC-157 accelerates healing across virtually every tissue type studied: tendons, ligaments, muscle, bone, skin, gut lining, blood vessels. The mechanism involves stimulating new blood vessel formation (angiogenesis), modulating inflammation, and supporting growth factor signaling at sites of damage. Patients dealing with tendinopathies, slow-healing injuries, or chronic gut issues often see results that physical therapy alone could not produce.

The Visible Transformation: The First Thing Patients Notice

The name is not just marketing. Patients on GLOW protocols across Wesley Chapel and South Tampa consistently describe the same experience: somewhere between week three and week six, people start commenting that they look different. Family members notice. Coworkers ask if something has changed. The skin appears more luminous, the under-eye area looks fresher, the overall complexion shifts in a way that is hard to attribute to any single thing. This is not an illusion or a placebo. GHK-Cu drives a measurable upregulation of collagen and elastin production. BPC-157 supports angiogenesis, which improves perfusion to the skin and other tissues — better blood flow means better delivery of oxygen and nutrients, and it shows. TB-500 supports the cellular migration and repair processes that gradually rebuild tissue quality over weeks and months. But the visible results are only part of what GLOW delivers. Patients with chronic joint discomfort often report meaningful reductions in pain. Patients recovering from injuries or surgery report faster, more complete healing. Patients with chronic gut issues often see improvements in digestion and inflammation. The "GLOW" patients see in the mirror is the visible expression of a regeneration process happening throughout the body.

Who Should Consider GLOW?

GLOW is not a niche therapy. The patient profile is broad because the underlying biology applies to almost every adult. That said, certain patients see particularly strong results:

Adults focused on aesthetic optimization without surgery — patients who want to improve skin quality, tone, texture, and clarity — and who want results that come from rebuilding the underlying tissue rather than masking it with topicals or fillers

Patients recovering from injuries — tendonitis, partial muscle tears, post-surgical recovery, slow-healing wounds

Athletes and high-output adults — people who train hard and accumulate the cumulative wear-and-tear of aggressive lifestyles

Patients with chronic inflammation or gut issues — the BPC-157 component of the stack is particularly useful for gastrointestinal repair and reducing systemic inflammation

Adults seeking comprehensive longevity protocols — GLOW pairs naturally with deeper longevity therapies

How GLOW Fits Into a Complete Regeneration Stack

At AgeRejuvenation, GLOW is rarely deployed in isolation. The most powerful use of GLOW is within a broader optimization plan. The peptide stack is not a standalone fix — it is a regenerative engine that becomes far more effective when the surrounding biology is in good shape. Common stacks include:

GLOW plus hormone optimization

GLOW plus NAD+ and IV therapy

GLOW plus aesthetic procedures

GLOW plus GLP-1 protocols

GLOW plus comprehensive longevity protocols

The Protocol Approach at AgeRejuvenation

Every GLOW protocol begins with a comprehensive consultation. The medical team reviews your goals — whether aesthetic, regenerative, or both — along with any current health conditions, medications, and prior interventions. Lab work is typically ordered to establish baseline biomarkers and ensure no contraindications exist. The protocol itself is delivered through subcutaneous injection, typically self-administered by patients after initial in-clinic training. GHK-Cu can also be incorporated into topical formulations for direct skin application alongside the systemic protocol. The goal is not to deploy a generic protocol but to design a precise intervention based on each patient's actual biology. The clinical leadership at AgeRejuvenation comes from nearly two decades of building one of Florida's most established longevity and precision medicine practices. Dr. Dawn Ericsson, the Chief Medical Officer, brings a board-certified medical foundation with extensive experience in integrative, functional, and regenerative medicine. Protocols are built on biomarker testing, ongoing monitoring, and individualized adjustment — not template prescribing.

What Patients Report Over Time

The benefits of GLOW unfold across different timescales. Skin and energy changes typically begin appearing within two to four weeks. Somewhere between week three and week six, people start commenting that patients look different. The skin appears more luminous, the under-eye area looks fresher, the overall complexion shifts. Most patients run an initial GLOW protocol for eight to twelve weeks, followed by reassessment. Many transition to maintenance protocols thereafter, with cyclical use that maintains results long-term. More substantial regenerative effects continue accumulating throughout the protocol and beyond.
