About Anti-Aging in Los Angeles

Aging affects us in a variety of ways. It can dry out our skin or cause it to sag. We can experience drops in energy levels which affect everything from our motivation to exercise to our sex drive. Stubborn pockets of fat or excess skin can develop in places where we can’t work it off. Our hair thins or even starts to go bald. Photoaging (aging due to sun exposure) can exacerbate these conditions. But all these effects can be treated, corrected, or minimized with the benefits of modern anti-aging treatments.  

Treat the Cause Not the Symptom

At AsandraMD, we focus on treating the cause of the conditions that arise with aging, not just the symptoms. If you’ve been feeling down about how aging affects you, your general practitioner may not provide the right solutions. All too often, general practitioners just listen to the symptoms and prescribe a solution focused on those symptoms. You might receive antidepressant medication which doesn’t address the hormonal changes you might experience as you enter your 40s. You might be told to wear more sunblock or use lotion when photoaging already dried out your skin. We don’t want to merely treat the symptoms; we want to address the cause and offer you proven solutions that restore the energy and appearance of your younger days. We specialize in anti-aging remedies that get to the heart of the problem. We want to devise a comprehensive strategy for you to defy the effects of age. If you want to learn more, listen to our doctors and patients discuss their experiences. 

Ideal Candidates

Ideal candidates for anti-aging treatments want to reverse some of the most troublesome effects of aging. These effects can be physical, mental, or emotional. We’ve found one common cause of a variety of aging issues is the hormonal changes that naturally occur as we get older. Eligible candidates should also be in good health and ideally be non-smokers. Smoking carries with it a bevy of health risks that could complicate any anti-aging treatments. It also prematurely ages you. 

Personal Consultation

Your journey to rediscovering a fitter, more energetic, and more radiant version of yourself begins with a consultation with AsandraMD. A consultation is vital so we can review your blood work and medical circumstances and understand your goals, objectives, and expectations. The most important aspect of anti-aging therapy is establishing an open dialogue with our patients. You should feel comfortable discussing your intimate wellness, even if you consider it embarrassing. We understand that discussing your sexual health with your general practitioner might feel awkward, so we strive to make these discussions as relaxed and reassuring as possible. 

Our founder and Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Asandra, has focused his medical training and career on anti-aging treatments and bio-identical hormone therapy. Helping patients achieve optimal health and wellness became Dr. Asandra’s passion since he served as Chief Resident at the University of Illinois’ renowned Chicago College of Medicine. He is also board-certified by the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine. Since entering private practice in 2013, he’s continually focused on improving and advancing the science of anti-aging treatments. 

Anti-Aging Procedures

Our menu of anti-aging treatments aims to treat a variety of the most common effects of aging.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

Hormone replacement therapy has been around since the 1960s but it has evolved over the years. We use bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) which aims to replace the reduced hormone production that declines with age to boost your natural activity levels. Bioidentical hormones are the same on a molecular as the body’s natural hormones. Bioidentical hormone therapy can increase your motivation and replenish your reservoir of energy. Studies found hormone replacement therapy to reduce risk factors of cardiovascular disease, among other beneficial effects.^[1]

When women go through menopause, their estrogen levels rapidly abate. For men, however, testosterone levels begin a gradual decline that doesn’t begin with a severe triggering event.^[2] AsandraMD transcends the common knowledge of the role estrogen and testosterone play in the aging of women and men. Testosterone replacement therapy can help resolve these issues in men. Hormone replacement therapy for women helps women address any issues they experience after going through menopause.

Human Growth Hormone

Human growth hormone (HGH) treatments (peptide therapy) introduce dozens of key amino acids into the body. This provides a boost that helps reverse the effects of aging. Some benefits of Growth Hormone treatment include the increased ability to burn fat, enhanced energy levels, and improved sex drive and performance. The amino acids can also strengthen your immune system and help your body adapt to negative environmental factors. 

Platelet-Rich Plasma

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments are a relatively new way to unlock the hidden regenerative potential in your blood. Platelets are rich in properties that help our bodies heal and regenerate from injury, illness, and age. PRP therapy extracts a small sample of your own blood, concentrates and purifies it, then reinjects into a targeted location that needs treatment. 

Hair Restoration

Baldness is a common issue for men as they age. But it’s less known that women can also lose their hair as they get older. Hair restoration has evolved in the 21st century to emerge as a reliable and safe treatment that can revive that luscious mane you miss.
Anti-Aging Skin Treatment

Our skin is our body’s first line of defense against the environment. As such, it often bears the brunt of being on the frontlines of the battle with age. Photoaging affects our skin more than other parts of our body, drying it out and causing it to lose its elasticity and volume. Our anti-aging skin treatments help stimulate collagen and elastin, the building blocks of healthy skin, and restore that youthful glow we miss.

Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a sensitive topic. Most men don’t want to admit they suffer from it. It can be a difficult issue to discuss with a general practitioner who might not understand or relate for a variety of reasons. AsandraMD is a comfortable place for men to discuss their ED issues with a sympathetic ear. We can evaluate the possible causes of ED that come with age, including high blood pressure, diabetes, low testosterone, smoking and alcohol use, poor sleep habits, and more. We will devise the best treatment for your ED that is custom-tailored to your specific situation. Low testosterone is not always the cause of ED.

truSculpt iD

truSculpt iD is an innovative, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved treatment. It employs the power of radiofrequency waves to disintegrate stubborn adipose (fat) deposits that resist attempts to work them off through diet and exercise.
