About Selene

What it is, how it works, what it's studied for, and safety considerations.

What Is Selene?

Selene is a clinician-supervised skin-quality and metabolic-support blend. External references describe similar blends as combining GHK-Cu and tesamorelin. The exact blend composition is provider-determined and may vary by licensed pharmacy and is not framed as a guaranteed anti-aging or fat-loss treatment.

How It Works

If Selene contains GHK-Cu and tesamorelin, it pairs a copper peptide associated with collagen/skin remodeling pathways with a GHRH analog approved in a specific HIV-associated lipodystrophy context. The pairing is commonly marketed around skin vitality and metabolic support, but copy avoids guaranteed claims.

What It’s Studied For

GHK-Cu has published research in skin remodeling, collagen, elastin, tissue repair, and antioxidant pathways. Tesamorelin has FDA labeling and clinical evidence for reducing excess abdominal fat in adults with HIV and lipodystrophy. The Selene blend itself has less direct controlled evidence than either ingredient alone.

How It May Be Used in a Clinician-Supervised Program

A licensed clinician may consider Selene when a patient's goals relate to skin quality, body-composition support, or metabolic support and the safety review is appropriate. Review may include glucose status, IGF-1 concerns, neoplasm history, pregnancy status, allergies, liver/kidney status, and medication list.

Preferred Starting Options / Dosing Notes

Many patients begin with a lower starting option so a licensed clinician can evaluate tolerance, medical history, goals, and safety factors before any adjustments are considered. The starting option shown below is informational and reflects available program data, not self-directed dosing instructions. Final medication, dose, frequency, and treatment plan are determined by a licensed clinician.

Average starting option

  • 5 mL

Available options

  • 5 mL

Provider note: Do not change dose, frequency, or route of use unless directed by your clinician.

Safety Considerations

  • GHK-Cu injectable use has limited human data.
  • Tesamorelin-related risks may include elevated IGF-1, fluid retention, glucose intolerance, hypersensitivity, and injection-site reactions.
  • Branded tesamorelin labeling includes neoplasm-related warnings.

Some treatments may involve compounded medications when prescribed by a clinician. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved. The FDA does not evaluate compounded medications for safety, effectiveness, or quality before marketing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Selene guaranteed to be prescribed?

No. Prescriptions are never guaranteed. A licensed clinician reviews your medical intake and determines whether treatment is medically appropriate.

Can my provider change my treatment or dose?

Yes. Your selected treatment and preferred starting option are treated as preferences. Your provider may approve your selection, recommend a different option, adjust dosing, request more information, or deny treatment.

Does payment guarantee treatment?

No. Payment does not guarantee approval, a prescription, a specific medication, or a specific dose.

How is Selene used?

Use instructions are provided only if treatment is prescribed. If prescribed, follow your clinician's dosing and administration instructions exactly.

Are compounded medications FDA-approved?

No. Some treatments may involve compounded medications when prescribed by a clinician. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and are not evaluated by FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality before marketing.

What comes with injectable treatments if prescribed?

When prescribed by a licensed clinician, injectable peptide treatments may ship with syringes, prep pads for sterilization, and an instructions and dosing guide. Use only as directed by your clinician.
