The Hormone Therapy Process
After reviewing your blood test results, Dr. Knies will create your hormone pellet to insert beneath your skin’s surface.
Over the following month, you’ll begin to notice improvements. Then, Dr. Knies will perform another round of tests to inform your second pellet’s makeup, repeating the process to maximize your results.
To make the most of your hormone replacement therapy in Cañon City, we’ll also provide a 3–month supply of Core4 supplements after every pellet insertion.
The Benefits of Hormone Therapy
Look and Feel Better
Stress is the root of many physical and mental concerns. By resetting your mind and body’s priorities, you can enjoy more energy, fewer mood swings, and even better skin!
Stabilized Delivery
Our tiny pellets (inserted directly into the skin beneath your glute muscles) steadily release your hormone solution into your bloodstream to minimize fluctuations.
Personalized Solutions

How Hormone Therapy Works
At Rose Injectables, we tailor your hormone replacement therapy in Cañon City to meet your unique needs through customizing compound bioidentical pellets. These manmade hormones are the closest a lab can get to the real thing, which makes them easy for your body to accept and absorb.
After inserting the pellet into your skin, your bloodstream will circulate these new “hormones”, responding to them as if your body produced them naturally.

About Rose Injectables
Our owner, Dr. Liz Knies, made the big decision to transition from emergency medicine to aesthetics when she realized a gap in her own care options. After failing to find professional treatment for her skin concerns, Dr. Knies joined forces with ER nurse Chandler to build Rose Injectables. We’re honored to serve the Cañon City community with unmatched quality care for a range of wellness and aesthetic concerns. Plus, our office is just an hour’s drive away from Colorado Springs and South Pueblo.

Our Most Common Questions
Unlike traditional hormone therapy, our bioidentical hormone replacement therapy in Cañon City relies on lab-created hormones that are identical to natural hormones on a molecular level. This approach cuts out risks associated with synthetic hormones your body may reject.
When they come to Rose Injectables, yes! Our providers offer both male and female-specific hormone pellets, regulating your testosterone level to improve your wellbeing.
Due to the wide range of hormonal imbalance symptoms, a full-panel blood test is the only way to pinpoint the cause of your health issues. Dr. Knies will begin your treatment by reviewing your lab results to best address your unique needs.
While some patients notice improvements within just a few days of their pellet insertion, others may take longer. Our approach to hormone replacement therapy in Cañon City accounts for your long-term success, with many patients’ results peaking after 3 months.
