Persistent fatigue, mood changes, low energy, and reduced focus are often dismissed as signs of aging, but hormonal imbalances may be the underlying cause.
At Chi Aesthetics, Hormone Replacement Therapy is designed to help restore balance and improve overall well-being. We offer EvexiPEL® Pellet Therapy, a bioidentical hormone treatment that provides a steady, consistent release without the need for daily pills, creams, or injections.
Whether you’re experiencing menopause or low testosterone, every treatment plan is personalized based on your lab results, symptoms, and individual wellness goals.
It works through tiny, rice-sized pellets placed just beneath the skin during a quick in-office visit.
Once they’re in, these pellets release a steady dose of hormones directly into the bloodstream over several months, following a rhythm much closer to how your body naturally handles hormone production on its own.
That’s really what makes this a form of Bioidentical Hormone Therapy in Staten Island.
The hormones used are chemically identical to what your body already makes, generally sourced from plant materials rather than synthetic substitutes that don’t behave quite the same way once they’re inside you.
People come in for this treatment for several reasons, including:
Your provider takes a real look at your lab results, symptoms, and goals before confirming whether this approach actually fits your situation.
Testosterone naturally declines with age, often bringing low energy, reduced muscle tone, and a drop in focus or libido. Testosterone pellet therapy restores steadier levels, helping men feel more like themselves again without daily injections or creams to manage.
When the body’s production of estrogen and progesterone changes in menopause, it can lead to hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings. These symptoms can be improved with hormone replacement therapy during menopause and promote bone density and overall health with just a single insertion every few months.
As hormone levels decline with age, energy, mental clarity, and overall vitality tend to decline right along with them. Anti-aging hormone therapy helps restore balance, supporting sharper focus, steadier mood, and a more youthful sense of everyday energy.
As natural hormone levels change with age, you may experience fatigue, brain fog, mood changes, and reduced overall wellness. Bioidentical Hormone Therapy uses hormones that closely match those produced by your body to help restore hormonal balance. This personalized treatment supports improved energy, mental clarity, better mood, and enhanced overall well-being, helping you feel healthier, more balanced, and revitalized.
As hormone levels naturally decline with age, many people experience fatigue, mood changes, reduced mental clarity, and a loss of vitality. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) helps restore hormonal balance by replacing essential hormones your body no longer produces in optimal amounts. This treatment can improve energy levels, support cognitive function, enhance mood, and promote overall wellness, helping you feel healthier, more active, and balanced every day.
Instead of taking a pill every day or reapplying a cream that wears off, a small pellet goes under the skin, usually somewhere around the hip, during a simple in-office procedure. From there, it dissolves gradually, releasing hormones in a steady stream for months at a time.
That steady release is really what sets hormone replacement therapy through pellets apart from other delivery methods. Rather than spiking right after a dose and dropping off before the next one, hormone levels stay far more balanced, which tends to mean steadier energy and mood.
Treatment for men generally aims to restore healthy levels of testosterone to ensure that they maintain energy, muscle strength, mental sharpness, and overall health. It is often used by women to replace the hormones that are in short supply during menopause and as they age.
This treatment is best suited for adults experiencing symptoms related to hormonal imbalance and should be recommended only after a comprehensive medical assessment.
You might be a good candidate if:
The only way to determine whether hormone therapy is appropriate is through a comprehensive consultation and detailed laboratory testing. Your provider reviews your hormone levels, symptoms, and medical history before putting together a plan.
The pellets release hormones gradually, helping maintain more consistent hormone levels than daily pills or periodic injections.
Once the pellets are in, there’s nothing to remember day to day, no pills, no creams.
Testosterone pellets help men dealing with low energy and muscle loss, while estrogen and progesterone pellets ease menopause symptoms for women.
Patients may notice improvements in energy, mental clarity, and emotional well-being as their hormone levels become more balanced.
Balanced hormones can help support bone density and overall wellness as the body ages.
The insertion procedure is quick, and there’s no real downtime to plan around afterward.
Every visit starts with a genuine conversation and a look at your lab results. Your provider reviews your hormone levels, talks through your symptoms, and discusses your goals before creating a treatment plan.
The pellet insertion itself is quick and handled right in the office. One pellet, or a few, depending on your specific dosing needs, gets placed just under the skin, usually around the hip, with a bit of local anesthetic to keep things comfortable.
Most patients say the whole thing goes faster and easier than they expected walking in.
The insertion procedure itself takes well under an hour. Generally speaking:
Once the pellets are in place, they keep releasing hormones steadily for months without needing any daily attention from you.
Most patients need new pellets inserted somewhere between three and six months apart, depending on how quickly their body metabolizes the treatment.
Some people need reinsertion sooner, others later, which is exactly why lab monitoring plays such a big role in this whole process.
Your provider tracks your levels over time and adjusts your plan accordingly, rather than sticking you into a fixed schedule that might not actually fit your body.
Recovery from pellet insertion tends to be minimal. Most patients are back to their regular day the same afternoon.
Some mild, temporary effects show up at the insertion site sometimes: a little soreness, minor bruising, or some localized swelling. These usually clear up within a few days.
As the pellets start releasing hormones, many patients notice gradual improvement in energy, mood, and symptoms over the following weeks.
It’s a bioidentical hormone delivery method using small, rice-sized pellets inserted under the skin to release a steady stream of hormones over several months.
Pellet therapy is administered continuously and does not experience the spike and fall in hormone levels as seen with daily pills or regular injections.
For most healthy adults, yes, especially under the supervision of a qualified provider with regular lab monitoring. A consultation and bloodwork will help determine if it’s right for you.
Yes. The use of pellets for Menopause Hormone Treatment is quite common to help with hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and fatigue due to decreasing levels of estrogen and progesterone.
No. While it’s often associated with men, testosterone plays a real role in women’s health too, and can be part of a broader treatment plan when it makes sense.
Most patients get somewhere between three and six months of steady hormone release before needing a new insertion.
