Dr. Judith Borger breaks down what peptides actually are at the molecular level, unpacks the fast-moving and often confusing FDA regulatory landscape around peptide compounding in 2026, and gives an evidence-based rundown of the most talked-about peptide products and stacks — including “Glow” (GHK-Cu), “Wolverine” (BPC-157/TB-500), CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, PT-141, and the GLP-1s. In This Episode: What peptides are and how they differ from proteins and amino acids Why some peptides act as hormones, antioxidants, or signaling molecules in the body The current FDA regulatory status of peptide compounding, including the 503A Bulk Drug Substances List and the 2026 Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee review Why “removed from the safety watch-list” is not the same as “approved for compounding” The difference between a peptide from a licensed compounding pharmacy versus an unregulated online vendor A breakdown of popular peptide products: Glow (GHK-Cu, glutathione, and vitamin C — sometimes also including BPC-157 and TB-500), Wolverine (BPC-157 + TB-500), CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, PT-141 (bremelanotide/Vyleesi), and GLP-1s (semaglutide, tirzepatide) Why “Glow” and “Wolverine” aren't always separate products — some Glow formulations fold in the same BPC-157/TB-500 combination sold as Wolverine What real human clinical evidence exists for each — and where the evidence is limited to animal studies or mechanistic theory Disclaimer: This episode is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Regulatory status discussed reflects information available as of August 2026 and is subject to change; listeners should confirm current FDA guidance and consult a licensed physician before considering any peptide therapy.

Vascular occlusion is one of the most serious — and most misunderstood — complications in filler injections. In this episode, Dr. Judith Borger breaks down exactly what vascular occlusion is, why it happens, the anatomical danger zones every injector should know cold, and the warning signs every patient should be able to recognize. This isn't a scare-tactic episode — it's an honest, clinical walkthrough from a board-certified physician, designed to help you ask better questions and feel more confident in the chair. In this episode: What vascular occlusion actually is (and how it differs from normal bruising or swelling) The two mechanisms: direct intravascular injection vs. extravascular compression High-risk anatomical zones: glabella, nose, tear trough, temple Warning signs to watch for: disproportionate pain, blanching, dusky/mottled skin What to do immediately if you notice these signs A brief overview of how it's managed and why HA filler's reversibility matters Questions to ask your injector before treatment Dr. Judith Borger Links: www.theaestheticdoctor.com www.instagram.com/doctorborger
Comparison is something we all do—but in today's world of social media and constant comparison, it can quietly rob us of our joy, gratitude, and confidence. In this episode of The Aesthetic Doctor Podcast, Dr. Judith Borger explores why our brains are wired to compare, how comparison can create a mindset of scarcity, and why measuring ourselves against others is often the fastest path to dissatisfaction. She also shares how this shows up in aesthetic medicine, where the healthiest outcomes come from enhancing your own natural beauty—not chasing someone else's. You'll learn practical strategies to shift your perspective, cultivate gratitude, and focus on your own growth instead of someone else's highlight reel.

Cristiano Ronaldo has become one of the most recognizable faces in the world—not just because of his legendary football career, but because of his commitment to health, fitness, longevity, and maintaining a polished appearance. So what can Ronaldo teach us about aesthetic medicine? Quite a bit. In this episode of The Aesthetic Doctor Podcast, Dr. Judith Borger explores the rapidly growing world of men's aesthetics, and how today's male patients are seeking subtle, natural-looking results that enhance confidence rather than change their appearance.

This shift reflects a broader trend toward preventative care, skin health, and minimally invasive procedures with little to no downtime. Tune in to learn what today’s top trending male aesthetic procedures are. Dr. Judith Borger Links: www.theaestheticdoctor.com www.instagram.com/doctorborger

In this episode, Dr. Judith Borger cuts through the viral buzz around PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) — the regenerative treatment taking the aesthetic world by storm — and gives you the real science, the honest FDA truth, and the safety information that nobody else is talking about.
