Conversations with Dr. Whitney on Sleep and Recovery
Dr. Whitney Elsesser, DNP, CNM
Certified Nurse Midwife & Wellness Provider
At About Face, the conversation about looking and feeling your best doesn’t stop at the treatment room door. Wellness provider Dr. Whitney Elsesser builds recovery into every program she designs — because what happens while you sleep is just as important as what happens while you’re awake. We asked her to break down why.
There's no shortage of advice out there about sleep. But you'd argue most people are missing the clinical piece underneath it. Where does the conversation start for you?
With progesterone. It’s one of the first hormones to decline as women age, and it’s also one of the most overlooked — partly because conventional care tends to associate it exclusively with reproductive health. But progesterone is a calming, sleep-supporting hormone. When levels drop, the effects can be hard to ignore: poor sleep, irritability, difficulty managing stress, a sense of not handling things the way you used to.
What I want patients to understand is that those symptoms can have a hormonal component — and when we restore progesterone to an optimal level, sleep quality is often one of the first things that shifts. Everything else — energy, mood, skin, recovery — can follow from there. You can’t out-supplement or out-train poor sleep, and you can’t out-sleep a hormonal imbalance. You have to address both.
You talk a lot about peptides for body composition and skin — but Sermorelin is a bit different. What makes it worth paying attention to for sleep and recovery?
Sermorelin is one I recommend a lot, and it’s actually where I started myself. It works by stimulating your body’s own production of growth hormone, which plays an important role while you sleep — tissue repair, muscle recovery, cellular regeneration. As we age, growth hormone production naturally declines, and Sermorelin is a well-tolerated way to support that process.
For patients who are already active and eating well, the Restore stack — CJC combined with Ipamorelin — is another strong option. It has similar recovery benefits with the added advantage of supporting lean body composition with less fluid retention, which can make a meaningful difference for patients who are already lean. Both are worth knowing about — the right fit depends on where someone is starting from and what they’re trying to address.
For a patient who's already doing the aesthetic treatments and trying to take better care of themselves overall — why is recovery the piece that ties everything together?
Because recovery is when the work actually happens. Your skin has an opportunity to repair itself overnight — collagen synthesis, cell turnover, inflammation resolution. When sleep is poor or hormones are off, that process can get disrupted, and it may show up on your face over time no matter how good your topical routine is or how consistent you are with treatments.
The same is true for body composition. Strength training, protein intake, the right peptides — all of it depends on recovery to deliver results. I think of it as the multiplier. Optimizing your recovery can make everything else you’re doing work harder. For patients who want to look and feel their best, sleep isn’t the soft recommendation at the end of the conversation — it’s one of the first places we look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Peptide Therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses specific amino acid chains (peptides) to support healing, improve body function, enhance recovery, and promote overall wellness.
It may help improve energy levels, sleep quality, fat metabolism, muscle recovery, cognitive function, skin health, and signs of aging depending on the peptide used.
Peptides are typically administered through injections, oral formulations, or topical applications, depending on the treatment plan and desired outcomes.
Some patients notice improvements within a few weeks, while more significant benefits develop gradually over several months of consistent use.
When prescribed and monitored by a qualified medical provider, peptide therapy is generally considered safe and well-tolerated, with treatment tailored to individual health needs.

Would be v helpful to get a full sized or at least trial/sample size of recovery product. I’ve had many things done in many spas and always got adequate recovery product for procedures. As part of the treatment. I do appreciate not being pushed to buy products but it was insulting to be handed a tiny button of product which did not cover my face/neck/chest once let alone the 5-6-7 days of recovery. For the large amount of money we pay its risky to not receive adequate after-care as the potential is there to cause issues using products not viable. Also for facial treatments an inexpensive silky satin pillow case would be the most generous touch and so appreciated. Bulk purchase should not cost much and the reaction you would get would be a huge boost. Crusty faces dragging on cotton pillowcases UGH.
