Biote is a bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) that restores the optimal hormone levels in your body. Optimized hormones allow your body and mind to function properly. But if you’re suffering from a hormone imbalance, you may experience low energy, fatigue, exhaustion, weight gains, sexual dysfunction, and other problems. Biote involves placing targeted hormone pellets under the skin to restore your optimal hormone levels and alleviate the symptoms of hormone imbalance. Cohen Medical Aesthetics administers the ideal Biote hormones to address your specific symptoms.

Restore optimal hormone balance with Biote BHRT
Biote is a bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), which means it replaces your depleted hormone levels using synthetic hormones that are chemically similar to the hormones produced by your body. Since the hormones look and act the same way as your natural hormones, they’re easily accepted by your body without unwanted side effects and problems. Your medical provider must offer Biote pellets that address your specific hormone deficiencies, such as the deficiency of testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, or growth hormones.
Benefits of Biote BHRT:
- Improve overall energy and physical well-being
- Improve the immune system and prevent diseases
- Improve overall mental health and emotional wellness
- Allow you to engage in physical activities comfortably
- Improve self-esteem and quality of life
- Personalized according to your specific symptoms
- Completely natural hormones that resemble those produced by your body
- Ensure a steady release of hormones — no peaks and valleys
Your Biote pellet implantation in Thousand Oaks
Cohen Medical Aesthetics provides a highly personalized Biote BHRT treatment after a thorough consultation. Our medical providers will carefully review your medical history, ask you to list all your symptoms, administer bio-analytical tests, and identify the hormone deficiencies contributing to your symptoms. After diagnosing the hormone deficiency, our medical providers will curate a personalized BHRT plan for you, which involves selecting the right hormones and dosage for your specific needs and goals.
During your Biote BHRT session, the medical provider will cleanse and sterilize the skin on the hip/ buttock. A local anesthetic is injected into the skin to ensure optimal comfort. The medical provider will make an extremely small incision on the skin, through which the chosen Biote pellet is implanted underneath the skin. Once the subcutaneous hormone pellet is in place, the incision will be closed and dressed in an antiseptic gauze.
Biote BHRT: dosage and frequency of treatments
The appropriate dosage for your Biote hormone therapy will depend on your unique goals and symptoms. The average Biote pellet comes in a 100-milligram dose, but your medical provider may adjust the dose according to your specific needs. The Biote pellet will release a steady dose of the targeted hormones, so you maintain steady hormone levels — no peaks and valleys. The Biote pellet will work for 6 months, following which you may need another pellet.
Biote BHRT: side effects and recovery
Biote BHRT doesn’t cause major side effects or complications. You may experience moderate swelling, tenderness, and discomfort around the site of pellet implantation for a few days or weeks. The side effects will gradually subside. The wound will heal within a week. You must not get the area wet for 24 hours, but you can resume daily activities and work after a day.
