Peptides and GLP-1

Think of peptides as your body’s biological text messages—tiny chains of amino acids that tell your system to repair, recover, and perform. At ETHR LAB in Oak Brook, we leverage medical-grade premium peptides to recalibrate your biology for better energy, recovery, and resilience at the cellular level.

Our go-to’s include BPC-157 and Thymosin Beta-4 (TB-500) are known for supporting tissue repair, deep sleep, lean muscle retention, and total-body rejuvenation. We design protocols that fit your personal bio-signature and recovery goals.

Yes—when done right. All peptides used at ETHR LAB come from licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies and are medically supervised. Ashley, our aesthetic RN and peptide specialist, oversees every plan to ensure precision, safety, and measurable outcomes.

Absolutely! Peptides can enhance metabolic efficiency, muscle tone, and recovery—creating the internal environment your body needs to optimize composition naturally. For many Oak Brook clients, peptides pair beautifully with EMS Muscle Sculpting (to prevent muscle loss during weight loss), Lipo C injections, IV nutrient drips, and lymphatic compression for detox and circulation.

Hydration, high-quality protein intake, resistance training, and recovery matter most when you are on a weight-loss protocol. Many of our clients use EMS Muscle Sculpting therapy to prevent muscle loss (especially on the glutes), Endosphères® therapy to tighten the skin as you loose weight and Ballancer®Pro lymphatic drainage to accelerate detox and maintain balance as the body adapts to therapy. We also offer supplements and IV Drips to maintain proper mineral balance, preventing hair loss and other deterioration due to a calorie deficits.

Pairing peptides with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), NAD+ injections, or Cryotherapy accelerates oxygen delivery, mitochondrial regeneration, and recovery. It’s the ultimate synergy for athletes, executives, and biohackers chasing next-level performance.

Absolutely. Certain peptides stimulate collagen, elastin, and cellular turnover. When combined with microneedling + Exosomes, PCA peels, or Hydrafacials, you’re optimizing from the inside out—for skin that looks as young as your cells feel.

Everything starts with data. We review your health history, labs, and recovery goals, then design a plan that syncs with your biology. No templates—just pure customization rooted in longevity science.

Peptide therapy can be customized to fit your lifestyle. Many clients use it as a long-term tool for optimization to hit certain milestones, while others choose shorter programs to address specific goals.

That depends on the protocol. 💉

If your peptide or GLP-1 therapy requires once- or twice-weekly injections, we typically administer those in-center at ETHR LAB to ensure proper dosing, precision, and comfort.

For daily peptide protocols, we do both — many clients prefer to self-inject at home for convenience. We’ll handle the reconstitution, dosing, and training so you know exactly how to administer it safely.

Our team—led by Ashley, RN, our aesthetic nurse and peptide expert—will walk you through each step, and we recommend weekly in-person or virtual check-ins to review progress, adjust dosing, and keep your optimization plan on track.
