Biote Nutraceuticals have been expertly formulated to promote healthy aging and enhance overall wellness. These products have been selected for superior bioavailability and can help you achieve your health goals. Nutraceuticals Schedule Consultation < Back Next > 1. BIOTE ADK 5 & 10 This nutraceutical is a combination of three essential vitamins—A, D3, and K2—and supports bone health in both men and women.* The Science Behind Biote ADK Osteocalcin is a protein secreted in bones that assists with remodeling our bones by both reabsorbing older bone and laying down new healthy bone. Vitamin D3, the “sunshine vitamin,” is vital in producing osteocalcin and may improve the absorption of calcium. However, D3 needs help from vitamin K2, a cofactor that is essential for normal bones and is also known to help with blood circulation. Vitamin A, an antioxidant, supports these two vitamins, as well as the immune system.* This Biote supplement includes vitamin A as retinyl palmitate, vitamin D3 as cholecalciferol, and vitamin K2 as menaquinone-7. Biote ADK 5 contains 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 per capsule, and Biote ADK 10 contains 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 per capsule. What Can Biote ADK 5 & 10 Supplements Do for You? When taken daily, Biote ADK 5 & 10 supplements may promote the positive effects of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and may maintain healthy bones. Providers can choose from Biote ADK 5 or Biote ADK 10—the latter of which includes a higher dose of D3. 2. BIOTE BACILLUS COAGULANS This nutraceutical helps replenish and support healthy bacteria in your gut.* The Science Behind Bacillus Coagulans Your gut is home to living bacteria that can affect your physical and mental wellbeing, including digestive and immune health. Probiotics may help maintain the beneficial bacteria while minimizing the bad.* What Can Bacillus Coagulans Do for You? Utilizing a well-tolerated strain, Bacillus Coagulans is strong and stable enough to survive stomach acid, retain its potency in the intestines, and is an excellent choice for acute events and recovery, such as after antibiotic use.* 3. ARTEROSIL® HP The Science Behind Biote Arterosil® HP Our blood vessels have a protective, slippery, micro-thin inner lining called the endothelial glycocalyx (EG). Its role is to protect and regulate the entire vascular system by supporting the health of the endothelium, harboring antioxidants and coagulation factors, regulating passage of molecules, and triggering nitric oxide production and resulting vasodilation. Arterosil® HP contains specialized sulfated polysaccharides derived from a rare seaweed. Daily use of Arterosil® HP may help deliver the building blocks necessary to support this natural protective lining. What Can Arterosil® HP Do for You? Arterosil® HP aims to support a healthy heart, support normal circulation, and help maintain the artery wall’s protective barrier. 4. BIOTE® BEST NIGHT SLEEP New & Improved Formulation: Best Night Sleep leverages the same great ingredients you love, now with an optimized formulation based on the latest clinical research. This nutraceutical now features L-theanine, which helps you fall asleep faster and sleep deeper, and an optimal 1-milligram dose of melatonin to calm the mind and help the body transition into a more restful night’s sleep. The recommended dose for Best Night Sleep has been reduced from 2 capsules to 1 capsule. Now each bottle lasts you for 60 days instead of 30 days, while remaining just as effective! The Science Behind Biote Best Night Sleep Most people develop a sleep problem at some time in their life.

Best Night Sleep now includes L-theanine and an optimal 1-milligram dose of melatonin. L-theanine is an amino acid that occurs naturally in green tea. Clinical research indicates it can lower stress and improve both the time to get to sleep and the quality of sleep. L-theanine may also improve mood and mental sharpness. Melatonin is a major sleep hormone that is naturally released in the brain on a 24-hour rhythm that helps regulate your sleep patterns. Melatonin supplementation can further support your natural circadian rhythm and help you fall asleep faster. What Can Biote Best Night Sleep Do for You? Best Night Sleep can be a valuable tool for calming the mind, falling asleep faster, sleeping through the night, and waking up feeling ready for your day. Best Night Sleep is specially formulated to help promote better sleep without using harmful or addictive ingredients. Because the ingredients are all-natural, most users can expect to wake up refreshed without that groggy feeling 5. BIOTE® DIM SGS+ This nutraceutical contains extracts from broccoli and pomegranate that may support the healthy utilization of estrogen in both men and women. The Science Behind Biote DIM SGS+ When we age, our testosterone levels drop, naturally increasing our estrogen levels. Too much estrogen can cause significant damage to our bodies. Studies have shown that people with high levels of estrogen have a higher risk of increased weight gain, bloating, water retention, and other complications.* DIM, short for diindolylmethane, is a hormone balancer. Our DIM hormone therapy supplement is derived from broccoli and pomegranate. However, it is not a plant estrogen or an estrogen mimic, like soy isoflavones. DIM may help to stimulate a more efficient metabolism for estrogen, meaning it aims to regulate the ratio of healthy to less healthy estrogen. What Can Biote DIM SGS+ Do for You? When this nutraceutical is taken daily, Biote DIM SGS+ may support weight management and be beneficial for breast, uterine, cervical, and prostate health. 6. BIOTE® Curcumin-SF This nutraceutical contains well-absorbed curcumin that may help provide relief from occasional joint and muscle soreness. The Science Behind Biote Curcumin-SF All curcumins are not created equal. Although used for centuries as an ingredient in Asia, most forms are poorly absorbed in the bloodstream, whether coming from food or a nutritional supplement. Biote Curcumin-SF is the most clinically studied curcumin supplement on the market, with a 29x greater absorption rate than ordinary curcumin.* Curcumin supplements can enhance the activity of the COMT enzyme, which may help metabolize estrogen via methylation (the main way gene activity is adjusted during life!) in both men and women. In turn, it may help protect cells from DNA damage from improper estrogen metabolism, aims to support a healthy immune system, and may offer relief from occasional aches or discomfort. What Can Biote Curcumin-SF Do for You? When taken daily, the Biote Curcumin-SF hormone therapy supplement may provide a healthy inflammatory response, also known as the immune response, throughout the body. 7. BIOTE® METHYL FACTORS+ The Science Behind Biote Methyl Factors+ Methylation is a critical biochemical process that has a significant impact on our body’s ability to regulate its cardiovascular, neurological, reproductive, and detoxification systems. Unfortunately, the nutrients needed to make sure that optimal methylation occurs in the body are extremely difficult to get from a daily diet, mainly due to the abundance of processed foods and lack of soil nutrients. The Biote Methyl Factors+ formula provides a healthy serving of the nutrients necessary for this imperative bodily process.* One of methylation’s most important roles in the body is keeping our homocysteine levels in check; homocysteine is a common amino acid in our blood. Maintaining a desirable level of homocysteine is one of the leading biomarkers for the maintenance of good cardiovascular health. Biote supplements may help maintain these levels. Preventing an undesirable homocysteine level is also associated with the maintenance of bone, reproductive, cognitive, and neurological health. What Can Biote Methyl Factors+ Do for You? When taken daily, the Biote Methyl Factors+ provides five essential methylation nutrients in their most bioavailable forms: Methylfolate (5-MTHF), active B6, active B2, active methyl B12, and betaine.* 8. BIOTE® MULTI-STRAIN PROBIOTIC 20B+ The Science Behind Multi-Strain Probiotic 20B This nutraceutical contains 2 species of Lactobacillus (acidophilus & paracasei) and 2 species of Bifidobacterium lactis (Bi-04 & Bi-07). Formulated for regular use, this probiotic contains 20 billion colony-forming units to promote a healthy balance of your gut microbiome, which can help support your digestive and immune health. What Can Multi-Strain Probiotic 20B Do for You? There are living bacteria in your gut that help support your well-being – probiotics may help maintain the beneficial bacteria while minimizing the bad.* Biote’s Multi-Strain Probiotic 20B has been specifically developed to work alongside bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).

It is common to have some bruising, but if the treatment is targeting deeper adipose tissue then bruising will be more significant. With most treatments, there may be 3-5 days of downtime. With more aggressive treatments, do plan for couple of weeks to recover to baseline. How often do you have to follow up/maintenance? Depending on your Morpheus8 treatment plan you can expect to have between 1-3 treatment sessions. It also depends on how aggressive your treatment is and the severity of laxity and skin quality.

HIFU is a cutting-edge ultrasound treatment that utilizes high-intensity focused ultrasound technology to lift and tighten the skin, resulting in a more youthful and revitalized appearance. HIFU stimulates collagen production and causes the skin to contract, resulting in immediate lifting and tightening. HIFU Schedule Consultation Explore Gallery < Back Next > About the Treatment HIFU is a cutting-edge ultrasound treatment that utilizes high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology to lift and tighten the skin, resulting in a more youthful and revitalized appearance. By delivering HIFU energy deep down to the SMAS layer (which is typically deeper than lasers can reach), the treatment stimulates collagen production and causes the skin to contract, resulting in immediate lifting and continued skin tightening over the next few months. This process softens wrinkles, and promotes the appearance of tighter, smoother, and more lifted skin. What is it? Vzet is an advanced ultrasound treatment that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology to lift and tighten the skin. The Vzet ultrasound treatment will soften wrinkles and create the appearance of tighter, smoother, more lifted skin. Who is a good candidate? Who is NOT a good candidate? This treatment is designed for patients who want to achieve a firm, toned look with minimal downtime. HIFU isn't recommended for people with infections and open skin lesions at the target area, severe or cystic acne, and metallic implants in the treatment area. How is the treatment done? The duration of each treatment typically ranges from 20-45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. If you desire additional lifting and tightening in your treatment area, you may opt for more frequent treatments. How Does The HIFU Technology Help To Lift And Tighten The Skin? The HIFU energy is delivered deep (deeper than lasers in general) down to the SMAS layer (about 3.5mm deep) of the skin. The 65˚C of thermal energy that is applied to the SMAS layer makes the skin contract and stimulate collagen production. You’ll notice immediate lifting and continued skin tightening over the next 3-6 months as more collagen is produced. Overtime, you’ll notice improvement in wrinkles and a lifted and slimmer jowl line for a more youthful appearance. How long does it take to see results? With HIFU facelift treatments, you’ll see visible skin tightening after just one session. Results may vary depending on age, skin type and condition, as well as individual body chemistry. Why do the procedure/benefits? Unlike surgical facelifts, laser treatments and radio frequency, HIFU is the only non-invasive procedure that specifically targets the deep foundation below the skin, without cutting or disrupting the skin surface for your body’s own collagen production. How long is recovery? (Bruising, swelling, etc.) When a session is over, there is also no recovery time, which means that people can get on with their daily activities after receiving HIFU treatment. How often do you have to follow up/maintenance? To achieve optimal results, we recommend an initial series of three Vzet treatments, spaced approximately two weeks apart, with additional maintenance treatments every six months to a year.

The "O-Shot" is a medical procedure that involves injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the vaginal area to address various concerns, including urinary incontinence. PRP contains growth factors that may stimulate tissue regeneration and improve urinary control. PRP O-Shot Schedule Consultation Explore Gallery < Back Next > About the Treatment What is O-Shot? O-Shot (Orgasm Shot) is a minimally invasive procedure that helps simulate vaginal tissue generation and collagen production to relieve urinary continence and female sexual dysfunction. The treatment starts by drawing small amount of one’s blood to extract the PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and inject it directly into the vaginal area. The platelets releases growth factors that help generate tissue to increase stimulation and sensitivity. What are the benefits of O-Shot treatments? This extremely safe treatment helps relieve pain and discomfort during intercourse, gain control of urinary leakage, increase clitoral sensitivity and arousal, smoother and younger skin texture of the vulva, tighter vaginal opening, increase natural lubrication, increase arousal from g-spot stimulation, and achieve more intense and more frequent orgasm during intercourse.

Over the counter pain medication can be taken to minimize any discomfort, although most patients do not even require such medication. When do you see the results and how long does the results last? Although some people start noticing results after a few weeks, most will notice its maximum benefit after 3 full months. Most people continue to note improvement at one year, but individual results vary. It is advised to repeat the O-shot yearly to maintain the health and function of the vaginal tissue.

Vulvar plumping, a cosmetic process, injects fillers into the labia majora, boosting volume for a fuller look. The aim is to enhance vulva aesthetics and boost self-confidence. In this method, the filler is fat transferred from the individual's body through the ALMI technique.Vulvar Vulvar Plumping with Fat Grafting Schedule Consultation < Back Next > About the Procedure What is the ALMI? ALMI is a type of transplant that involves moving fat from one area of your body to another, using needles instead of scalpels. This procedure recontours the target area with injections to achieve a natural appearance, while also reducing the risk of rejection by using the patient's own tissue. The acronym ALMI stands for autologous, meaning the filler comes from the patient's own body; lipocyte, which is the medical term for fat cell; micronized, which refers to the process of liquifying the fat cells before injecting them into the treatment areas; and injection, which helps restore youthful elasticity, volume, and texture to the skin. Vulvar plumping is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting fillers into the labia majora (the outer lips of the vagina) to increase their volume and create a plumper appearance. The procedure is intended to enhance the aesthetics of the vulva and improve self-confidence. In this case, the “filler” used would be fat transferred from your own body using the ALMI technique. Who is a good candidate? Who is NOT a candidate? Good candidates should be in good health and have realistic expectations of the results. Most women can be considered good candidates if they have an adequate amount of fat on either the stomach, flanks, or buttocks for the extraction. Candidates should refrain from injecting synthetic materials into their skin (such as dermal fillers or Botox). How is the treatment done? Before the procedure, patients undergo a medical evaluation and discussion of the ALMI technique. On the day of the procedure, a small amount of adipose tissue (fat) is extracted from the abdomen or flank, processed to remove unwanted material, micronized, and placed in a syringe. The regenerative substance is then injected into the treatment areas, which are numbed beforehand to prevent discomfort. Patients may experience slight swelling or mild bruising, but can typically return to normal activities immediately. Why do the treatment? Some women may choose to have this procedure because they are unhappy with the appearance of their vulva or labia majora, and they may feel self-conscious or insecure about it. Vulvar plumping can also be used to address the natural loss of volume and elasticity that can occur with age, or as a result of hormonal changes, weight loss, or pregnancy. By increasing the volume of the labia majora, vulvar plumping can create a more youthful, plump, and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Is there any downtime to the treatment? There is no downtime to the treatment, but patients should abstain from sexual activity for at least seven days after the treatment. < Back Next >

Vaginoplasty is a vaginal rejuvenation surgical procedure designed to tighten and reconstruct the vaginal canal. It addresses concerns such as vaginal laxity, enhancing muscle tone and restoring the structure, often contributing to improved sexual satisfaction and overall well-being. Vaginoplasty at Wei Aesthetic Institute Schedule Consultation Explore Gallery < Back Next > About the Procedure What is Vaginoplasty? Surgical vaginoplasty or vaginal rejuvenation (also known as posterior colporrhaphy) is the surgical procedure which tightens the muscles inside the vaginal canal. Vaginal rejuvenation is not a cosmetic procedure, it is a reconstructive surgery meant to increase vaginal tightness and increase sensitivity. Who is a good candidate for Vaginoplasty? Vaginal rejuvenation surgery is performed when a woman experiences vaginal laxity and a lack of friction. Vaginal laxity can be caused by vaginal childbirth, multiple pregnancies, heavy lifting, or excess weight putting pressure on the pelvic floor muscles and support tissues. Vaginoplasty surgery re-tightens the muscles and is recommended when a candidate is experiencing significant vaginal laxity that cannot be treated by alternative non-surgical treatments, or for those looking for more permanent results. Why do the procedure? Vaginal laxity may result in stretching tissue, to the point where sometimes tampons may fall out. It can also affect sexual pleasure. Vaginoplasty is also used to correct congenital defects of the vagina and acquired deformities due to cancers, tumors, or trauma Is tightening the vaginal opening the same as vaginal rejuvenation? No, tightening of the vaginal opening is called a perineoplasty and this procedure by itself will not create more internal friction. To obtain real results the surgeon will have to tighten more than just the opening of the vagina. How is the vaginoplasty procedure done? This procedure is done either in the office or at a surgery center with Dr. Judy Wei. Once the amount of tightening to be done is determined, a pie-shape wedge is marked to delineate the extra skin to be removed from inside the vagina. Beneath the skin, the tissues are tightened with strong sutures. Once the vaginal canal has been tightened, the mucosal skin is sutured closed. If there is external skin that protrudes, this can be reduced as well for a more aesthetic result. How long is recovery? For the first week, you should just relax, you may walk around and drive but must avoid all lifting, exercise, intercourse, vacuuming, and swimming. The risks of not following the doctor's recovery orders may include bleeding, infection, and broken sutures, leading to an unsuccessful surgery. Please follow directions, a revision surgery will only prolong the recovery process. Do not insert anything into the vagina! No Tampons and no sex for 7 to 8 weeks. Dr. Wei will discuss all recovery medications and activities with you in detail after your surgery. Most patients can resume all daily activities within 8 weeks. What does recovery look like? Patients may feel a deep itch for the first few days. It is also normal to have vaginal discharge and urine leakage in the first few weeks after surgery. It will be normal for urine to spray, rather than flow until the swelling around the urethra goes down. Depending on the amount of tightening performed, some patients may be instructed to use dilators and clean the vagina using a douche. How often do you have to follow up/maintenance? No maintenance is necessary. This procedure provides you with permanent results. The only maintenance necessary will be your post operation appointments with your surgeon to monitor your healing. These scheduled appointments will be discussed with you during your preoperative consultation. How long will it take to notice results? Patients will notice results once cleared by their surgeon after the initial downtime of 6-8 weeks post surgery. However, there may be tenderness, swelling and many other factors that may influence post-op results. Full healing of the surgery site and settlement into its new permanent state may take from 6 months to 1 year after the surgery. How to choose a vaginoplasty surgeon? Gynecologists and Urogynecologists perform vaginal tightening surgeries. Choose a vaginoplasty surgeon with experience and the proper training. Request to see before and after photos during your consultation and request to speak with (if possible / privacy laws) and or read patient testimonials. Dr. Judy Wei is a fellowship trained board certified OB/GYN and she completed Dr. Alinsod’s aesthetic vulvovaginal one-on-one surgical precept.

Morpheus8V is a non-invasive solution for vaginal rejuvenation. It combines micro needling and radiofrequency, to address concerns such as laxity, dryness, and overall vaginal wellness. This treatment promotes collagen production and tissue remodeling for comfort & confidence.Morpheus8V Morpheus 8V RF Microneedling Schedule Consultation < Back Next > About the Procedure What is it? Morpheus 8 is a microneedling treatment that utilizes radiofrequency energy for collagen formation remodeling. When performed vaginally, this treatment is referred to as Morpheus 8V. Who is a good candidate? Many laser treatments are not safe for patients with darker skin – because the laser frequency is absorbed by the pigment in the skin and can cause burning. But the Morpheus8 V uses soothing radiofrequency and heat energy making it safe for all skin types and tones – even darker skin colors. How is the treatment done? A vaginal rejuvenation from Morpheus 8V delivers controlled pulses of radiofrequency energy deep into the vagina and labia to tighten the soft tissue and stimulate the production of elastin and collagen. The result is increased lubrication and renewed thickness, strength, and tone in the vaginal walls and labia, which results in vaginal tightening and more comfort with intimacy. Morpheus8 radiofrequency was originally FDA approved for tightening and remodeling of the face. However, its amazing skin resurfacing abilities were quickly shown to be highly effective at restoring a youthful appearance to the labia. Morpheus8 V utilizes a “Subdermal Adipose Remodeling Device” (SARD) which is able to remodel the labia on a deep, cellular level. Through Morpheus8 V, our Englewood, Patients can safely obtain a smoother, smaller, and younger-looking labia without the need for labiaplasty surgery. The technology behind the Morpheus8 Designer Vagina treatment is the same that is used to perform radiofrequency microneedling, a procedure often referred to as the “non-surgical facelift.” Thanks to its unparalleled ability to lift, tighten and contour the skin, Morpheus8 Radiofrequency treatment is somewhat like a “facelift” for the labia. Why do the procedure/benefits? Radiofrequency energy is all around us, but employed in this procedure it induces collagen formation remodeling, which causes tightening, thickening and rejuvenation of the vaginal and vulvar tissue. Microneedling has been used on the face and body for years to induce collagen formation in the skin. Tiny, sterile needles create microinjuries to the tissue, and the body responds by producing more collagen and elastin. The vagina and vulva are then softer, more elastic, and intercourse is far more comfortable and pleasurable.The tightening action of Morpheus8 V strengthens the anterior vaginal wall, which in turn lifts the bladder and urethra. This results in dramatic improvement in urinary incontinence. How long to see results? Typically, Morpheus 8V vaginal rejuvenation patients will experience a dramatic improvement in their symptoms after a single treatment. Depending on the type and severity of symptoms, up to 3 treatments may be optimal How long is recovery? What does it look like?

Revolutionize your skincare with PicoSure's cutting-edge technology. This advanced laser system delivers ultra-short pulses for fast, effective pigment removal, skin revitalization, and transformative skin treatments. Unleash the power of PicoSure for clearer, smoother skin with no downtime and no surgery! PicoSure Laser at Wei Aesthetic Institute Schedule Consultation Explore Gallery < Back Next > About the Treatment What is the Picosure Laser Treatment? The world's first picosecond aesthetic laser-optimal wavelengths for treating pigmentary conditions and overall skin revitalization. Creating an intense photothermal impact in trillionths of a second, PicoSure’s advanced technology spares the skin high thermal damage and targets the chromophore for better clearance in fewer treatments. How does PicoSure work? PicoSure works two ways. As an ultra-fast laser, it’s able to break up pigmented areas of skin. Then the discolored areas disappear as the destroyed pieces are naturally eliminated by your body. The laser operates at a wavelength that’s only absorbed by pigmented skin, so it doesn’t harm surrounding tissues. PressureWave technology reaches below the skin to deeper layers, where it creates gentle pressure that stimulates the body’s normal healing response. During healing, new collagen and elastin are produced, which grow up through the skin to reach the surface. As fresh collagen and elastin replace old cells on your skin’s surface, your skin becomes stronger and more pliable. Ultimately, you gain a revitalized appearance. What conditions does Picosure treat? SKIN DISCOLORATION With PicoSure, your skin will look bright, healthy and glowing all day long—even without makeup. Fast and gentle, it treats freckles, sun damage, birthmarks and more. PicoSure works in harmony with your skin to lighten pigmentation such as freckles, sun damage and more. It breaks up the tiny particles that make up these discolorations. The particles are then absorbed into the skin. 2. ACNE SCARRING Be ready for your big reveal. Check out PicoSure, a fast, gentle treatment for acne scars and large pores. No need to cover-up afterwards; it will boost skin texture and tone from the get-go. PicoSure works by signaling skin cells to release proteins which are detected by other cells. This encourages skin to heal as it produces new collagen and elastin. The result? Smoother, more radiant, healthier skin. 3. FINE LINES & WRINKLES Banish the fine lines and wrinkles that come from expressing yourself. Get ready to feel all the feels and feel beautiful doing it. PicoSure causes cells to release proteins that are then detected by surrounding cells. The skin starts healing as it creates new collagen and elastin. The treatment gently smooths as it restores your natural radiance. What can you expect during treatment? Before your treatment begins, the team at WEI Aesthetic Institute explains the procedure and talks about whether you may want numbing cream. Most people tolerate the treatment, but each person’s skin sensitivity is different, so you may choose a topical treatment to ensure your comfort. One treatment takes about 10-15 minutes. You may have minor redness or swelling that lasts one to three hours. Since your skin isn’t damaged by the treatment, you can apply moisturizers and makeup right after treatment and get back to your usual daily routine. When will you see results? It takes a little time for your body to clear away pigmented lesions and for newly synthesized collagen and elastin to migrate toward the skin’s surface. Dr. Wei can give you a better idea about when you’ll see results based on the conditions being treated. How long is recovery? There is virtually no down time. Aside from some redness and swelling that may last a couple of hours after treatment. How often should I get a Picosure treatment done? A series of 3-4 treatments is recommended. Treatment intervals are 2-4 weeks but can be up to 8 weeks for darker skin types. Each patient is unique and will be evaluated prior to treatment. How long will Picosure treatment results last? The longevity of results from PicoSure® will depend on the skin issue that is being treated. Someone treating hyperpigmentation or acne scars will typically experience long-term results. However, this doesn’t mean that new scars or melanin clusters will not develop in the future.
