About Hormone Replacement Therapy
Playing a crucial role in regulating your body, hormones act as chemical messengers. In order to better balance the hormones within your body, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) utilizes hormones that are identical to those naturally secreted by your body. Our team at The Derm Lounge Med Spa has partnered with Hormone Therapy Centers of America in order to provide BHRT with pellets to our Dallas, TX patients. Dissimilar to alternative synthetic hormone methods, BHRT is a more natural method for hormone replacement. If you believe that you are suffering from hormonal imbalance, it is a good idea to have blood work to test your levels and rule out any underlying conditions. You can then schedule a consultation at our Dallas, TX facility where our team will talk with you about restoring your hormone levels with BHRT. We look forward to hearing from you.

Who Can BENEFIT FROM Hormone Treatment?
A comprehensive evaluation of any existing medical conditions and your medical history will be taken prior to the recommendation of BHRT pellet therapy. In most cases, your initial exam will also consist of a physical examination, a blood test, and a urinalysis. We also check testosterone levels in men and can do testosterone replacement, if needed. There are several symptoms that could be caused by an imbalance in hormones, such as:
- Decreased energy levels
- Loss of hair
- Migraines and headaches
- Vaginal atrophy or dryness
- Changes in your periods
- Changes in your mental state, including depression, anxiety, or irritability
- Difficulty sleeping
- Weight fluctuation
- Difficulty getting pregnant
- Changes in appetite
Your Hormone Replacement Treatment
At our Dallas, TX facility, our skilled team offers BHRT pellet therapy to treat symptoms of hormonal imbalance. After it has been determined that you are an ideal candidate for the procedure, we will schedule your treatment in one of our spacious rooms. Prior to the treatment, the incision area will be effectively numbed with a local anesthetic. The BHRT pellets will be then be placed into the skin in your upper buttocks where they will emit hormones over time. The pellets are curated in customized amounts based on your specific needs. The correct dosage for you will be determined based on the results of your blood test.
What to Expect
It can take up to a week for your body to accurately adjust to the new hormones after your BHRT pellet treatment. Initial results will be noticeable within the first 2 – 3 weeks following therapy, and you will continue to notice improvements for about eight weeks. It is often recommended that patients replace their BHRT pellets 3 – 4 times per year, or sooner if suggested. Additionally, you may need to attend a follow-up appointment over the next several months so our team ensures that you are receiving the appropriate pellet dosage.
