FAQs
What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is an effective treatment using hormones that are identical to the hormones naturally made by your body. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is transforming the lives of men and women as they enter the later stages of life. It provides an alternative to hormones that are synthetic, such as injectable testosterone, or hormones concentrated from horse urine (Premarin). Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is made by compounding pharmacists in customized dosages based on the individual needs of the patient as opposed to the narrow choices available with mass-produced, or “one size fits all” hormone therapies.
A more natural approach to hormone therapy, often referred to as “natural hormone therapy” has focused attention on bioidentical hormones that are identical in molecular structure to the hormones that the male and female body naturally produces for itself. Although not found in this form in nature, they are derived and made from plant compounds extracted from yams and soy. The result is often the relief from symptoms of hormone deficiency, from insomnia, chronic fatigue, memory loss, and loss of libido.
What is Pellet Therapy?
Mint & Needle offers BHRT using Pellet Therapy. Bioidentical Pellet Therapy is a hormone replacement method in which replaces the natural hormones men and women lose with age. The pellets contain either estradiol or testosterone, which are pressed or fused into tiny solid cylinders. When administered, they deliver consistent and healthy levels of hormones for 3-5 months in women and 4-6 months in men. Pellets dissolve inside the body on their own and are re-implanted as needed depending on how rapidly the patient metabolizes the hormones. Pellets avoid the fluctuations of hormone levels seen with other delivery methods, providing more consistent hormone levels over a longer period.
Why Pellet Therapy?
There are many delivery methods that can be utilized to administer BHRT; however, data shows the most efficient method by way of absorption and availability to deliver hormones in both men and women is by pellet therapy. Pellet Therapy provides many benefits to both men and females.

EZ Gel Plasma Filler
Regular price Save $0.00/
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Regenerative treatments use your body’s own materials to regenerate cells, proteins, or other materials that ultimately change the skin tissue (for the better). Because of these regenerative benefits, the use of blood concentrates —like Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)—is becoming more popular in the industry.
Enter EZ Plasma Gel.
EZ Gel, a revolutionary new solution that can be used in combination with fillers or independently to rejuvenate tissue and achieve natural-looking filler results. EZ Gel works wonders by enhancing firmness, reducing discoloration, and adding volume to areas such as the under-eye region and other treated areas.
How does it work?
- We collect a blood sample from you.
- The blood sample goes into tubes that are 100% natural (devoid of any anticoagulant.)
- Tubes are then spun in our centrifuge at optimal speed to create a blood concentrate rich in platelets, leukocytes, and Mesenchymal stem cells. How these tubes are heated and cooled allows a gel to form using your own cells.
At Mint & Needle, we are experts in delivering natural-looking aesthetics, with a special emphasis on regenerative treatments. Our approach focuses on tissue restoration, ensuring that fillers are used judiciously, only when necessary. We understand that nobody wants the "pillow face" or an overly puffy appearance. That's why we believe in the benefits of regenerative treatments, which help achieve a more natural and balanced look.

FAQs
How many sessions do I need?
For optimal results, we generally recommend two sessions of treatment spaced six weeks apart, particularly for the under-eye area. Afterward, maintenance sessions every six months are typically advised to keep up the desired outcome. Following this recommended treatment schedule provides long-lasting and effective results, especially for under-eye concerns.
What areas are treated?
While the under-eye area is a popular choice, other areas that can benefit from our treatments include the lips (if experiencing loose lip tissue), nasolabial folds, and for a complete facial rejuvenation, EZ Gel can be combined with fillers. This versatile approach allows us to address various areas and achieve optimal results.
What's the down time?
When undergoing under-eye treatment, it's important to be aware of potential side effects such as swelling, bruising, and redness. Swelling is a common occurrence and typically subsides within 1-2 weeks, though the duration can vary from person to person. It's essential to keep these possibilities in mind and allow ample time for the body to heal and recover after the procedure.
What should I do before the procedure?
To ensure optimal results, it's important to follow these pre-treatment guidelines. Refrain from taking blood thinners such as ibuprofen or aspirin for at least two weeks before your appointment. Stay well-hydrated, particularly on the night before and the day of the treatment. Prioritize a healthy diet, rich in vegetables and minimize meat consumption the day before. Additionally, it's advisable to abstain from alcohol for at least two days leading up to the procedure. These practices promote better platelet levels, which play a significant role in determining your clinical outcome.

Microneedling with PRF
Regular price Save $0.00/
Shipping calculated at checkout.
PRF can be added to any micro-needling or injectable treatment. The platelets from your own blood are rich in growth factors. When we re-inject or topically apply platelets to your skin, these growth factors signal for cell growth and collagen synthesis necessary for healing. When your platelets are microneedled into your tissue, it allows them to penetrate deeper to deliver those growth factors for restoration.
Cost:
- Microneedling with PRF Topical - $1800 per package of 3.
- Microneedling with PRF Injection - $2250 per package of 3.
- PRF injections for tear troughs or localized area - price on consultation.
