Should You Consider SottoPelle Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Aging and Hormones.
You don’t have to live with it!
Remember how easy it was to stay in shape in your early 30’s? A big reason why is because of powerful chemicals in your body called hormones.
As you get older, your hormone levels drop. When your hormone levels drop, the signs and symptoms of aging such as decreased energy, weight gain, and loss of libido are accelerated.

Overview
Aging & Hormones
Hormones are powerful chemicals secreted by your body into your bloodstream around the clock that serve as vital messengers to affect cells in other parts of your body. Hormones play a vital role in regulating your body’s physiological systems including the body’s metabolism, temperature, mood, reproduction, growth, aging, and immune system.
As you get older, your hormone levels drop. This hurts the performance of cells and organs that require hormones to function efficiently. Your brain, heart, internal organs, immune system, metabolism, muscle mass, and bone density all rely on adequate levels of functioning hormones. When your hormone levels drop, the signs and symptoms of aging are accelerated, including:
- Fatigue and decline of energy and motivation
- Weight gain and loss of muscle mass
- Degenerative diseases (diabetes, cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis)
- Thinning and wrinkling of the skin
- Stress and depression
- Weakened immune system (leading to frequent infections)
- Decline in memory and overall cognitive function
- Loss of sex drive and performance
- Sleep disorders

Women and Men Who Are Bothered By The Signs and Symptoms of Aging
Sotto Pelle biologically identical hormone replacement therapy can be an excellent treatment if you are bothered by the signs and symptoms of aging including:

Don’t suffer from hot flashes, night sweats, trouble sleeping and weight gain if these symptoms can be controlled. The Age Management Institute at 77 Plastic Surgery has been helping women control these undesirable aging symptoms naturally, making the process more manageable and enjoyable.

The Treatment
Sotto Pelle HRT is the most convenient, hassle-free, and scientifically based bio-identical hormone therapy available
Sotto Pelle hormone replacement therapy is a unique treatment method based on prescribing the right kind of hormone (biologically identical), in the correct amount (determined through testing and proper analysis of the results), using the right delivery method (pellets). The hormones used in the Sotto Pelle therapy are biologically identical, meaning that they are natural, derived from plant compounds that have the same molecular structure as those made by the human body.
Sotto Pelle uses an exclusive, science-based approach to your hormonal well being developed by the late Dr. Gino Tutera — an internationally recognized bio-identical hormone therapy expert. Unlike other treatments, Sotto Pelle therapy delivers small doses of testosterone and estradiol directly into your bloodstream at the level your body needs around the clock for up to 6 months. This makes this treatment the most convenient and hassle-free bioidentical hormone therapy available.
How It Works
It’s actually pretty simple. During your initial consultation, Dr. Fan will conduct a detailed history and physical examination. Blood will be drawn to determine the baseline levels of your body’s own hormones and based on your symptoms we will determine the optimal bio-identical hormones that will be prescribed for you. The hormones are administered using pellets that are inserted beneath the skin in a simple, 5-minute office procedure. Periodic re-evaluation of your hormone levels will be required until all of the levels are “optimal” and then annual follow-ups to monitor your therapy and optimize your treatment plan.
Why The Sotto Pelle Method is Superior to Other Forms of Hormone Replacement
Hormonal balance is a sensitive state of being to achieve and vital to your overall well-being. Many physicians prescribe hormones without understanding the full importance of the differences in modalities, testing the interpretation of those tests, the quality of the prescription and how to achieve hormonal balance. Other hormone pellet therapies may rely on experimentation, guesswork and incorrect information and are comfortable with the one-size-fits-all, smallest-dose-for-the-amount-of-time approach.
Recovery
No Downtime
There is little to no downtime after Sotto Pelle bio-identical hormone replacement therapy; in fact, you should be able to return to work and normal activities immediately after your treatment. We recommend that you wait three to seven days to resume exercise.
