Stella Capri Wellness
Aging Gracefully

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is a viable solution for those whose bodies produce insufficient amounts of specific hormones or grapple with unbalanced levels, especially women experiencing menopause and men navigating andropause. It is considered an appealing alternative to conventional hormone therapy for several reasons. BHRT involves hormones with identical molecular structures to those naturally produced in the body, offering a personalized approach through hormone testing. In addition, it provides relief from symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances with potentially fewer side effects. BHRT is believed to integrate more smoothly with the body’s natural processes and can have a better long-term safety profile over other functional medication or conventional hormone therapy.

Stella Capri Wellness, a concierge med-spa, leads the way in this new approach, providing cutting-edge advancements in biohacking longevity, bioidentical hormone therapy, anti-aging treatments, hair restoration, and overall wellness and aesthetics.

“I believe our approach differs from typical medical subspecialties as we prioritize treating patients from the inside out. We emphasize that addressing collagen and skin health should coincide with hormone balance,” says Candice Stewart, owner of Stella Capri.

Candice holds a fellowship in anti-aging medicine and a peptide certification from age management medicine and A4M, reflecting her extensive education in the field. With a decade of experience in this approach, Stella Capri emphasizes a holistic treatment philosophy, prioritizing the internal well-being of patients alongside external cosmetic enhancements.

It offers compounded estradiol patches and creams, progesterone rapid dissolve tablets and cream, along with thyroid supplementation, low dose naltrexone, testosterone injections and dhea/pregnenolone supplementation.

Stella Capri also explores peptides as a viable option, particularly for addressing hormonal issues and treating prolonged cases of COVID-19 infections. The company utilizes peptides to treat children with autism, showcasing remarkable progress compared to conventional medications. Noteworthy peptides include those promoting collagen production and hair growth, the “fountain of youth” peptide for its anti-aging effects. Other peptides are employed for purposes like gut healing, mending torn ligaments to potentially circumvent surgery, and stimulating mitochondria to counteract the age-related decline in energy production. The practitioner emphasizes the safety of these peptides in the pursuit of reversing aging indicators.

Stella Capri also treats Hashimoto’s autoimmune cases, noting an increasing prevalence among younger demographics. It has discovered effective therapies for individuals who struggled to find relief elsewhere, witnessing remarkable results that enable patients to lead normal, healthy lives.

The patient treatment process involves completion of a comprehensive form detailing patient concerns and medical history. A full panel of labs, often consisting of around 13 vials of blood, is collected to assess various health markers, including hormone levels such as thyroid hormones which tend to decline with age.

Subsequently, a tailored plan including supplements, hormones, and peptides is devised, followed by regular follow-up appointments every three months. The patients enrolled in the concierge program have the benefit of direct access to Stewart via email, with responses guaranteed within one business day. Stewart remains readily available for quick consultations, phone calls, or in-person visits to address their patients’ needs and concerns.

Stella Capri’s referral-based practice has seen significant improvements in patient well-being, with many reporting transformative changes, like enhanced vitality, increased libido, improved energy levels, and positive alterations in body composition. The positive outcomes have often led these patients to share their experiences with friends and family, contributing to the referral-driven nature of the practice.

The company’s commitment to providing optimal care for patients is evident through a dedicated focus on ongoing education and staying informed about cutting-edge modalities in bioidentical hormone therapy. It is proactive in sharing newfound knowledge with patients, whether through email blasts or discussing innovations during patient consultations. As it continues to evolve and stay at the forefront of medical advancements, Stella Capri Wellness remains committed to providing optimal care, fostering well-being, and enhancing the quality of life for those seeking a holistic and innovative approach to health.
