GlycanAge Biological Age Testing | BelleSante | Best Dermatologist in Phoenix

Have you ever wondered if your body's true (Biological) age matches the number of candles on your birthday cake (Chronological age)? While we all age chronologically at the same rate, our biological age – how our bodies are actually aging on a cellular level – varies based on our lifestyle choices, genetics and other unique factors. Knowing what is happening in the deepest levels of your body could transform how you approach your health and longevity.

The Science of Aging Healthier

At BelleSante by Kristine Romine, MD, we believe true age is determined by how your body functions, not by the number of candles on your birthday cake. Our goal for all our patients is to achieve their optimal "HealthSpan" — the number of years lived vibrantly and in good health. That's why we offer Biological Age Testing, an advanced scientific analysis that measures your body's true biological age through a simple blood test. Think of it as the ultimate strategy for understanding your health at the cellular level: scientific, personalized and transformative.

Whether you're just beginning your wellness journey or seeking to optimize your current lifestyle, we encourage Biological Age Testing, which provides a sophisticated, evidence-based solution that integrates seamlessly into your comprehensive health strategy. It's one of our essential tools for guiding you in your journey to live longer, healthier and more vibrantly — at every chronological age.

What Is Biological Age Testing?

Have you ever wondered if your body's true (biological) age matches the number of candles on your birthday cake (chronological age)? While we all age chronologically at the same rate, our biological age — how our bodies are actually aging on a cellular level — varies based on our lifestyle choices, genetics and other unique factors. Biological Age Testing through GlycanAge helps us learn what is happening in the deepest levels of your body and will transform how you approach your health and longevity.

Our Biological Age Testing uses cutting-edge glycan analysis, a scientific breakthrough that measures chronic inflammation in your system to determine how your body is truly aging. This innovative test examines glycans, complex sugar structures attached to proteins in your body, which respond to your lifestyle choices and act as powerful biomarkers of aging and overall health. By analyzing these molecular patterns, we gain invaluable insights into your cellular health beyond what conventional medical tests can reveal.

The Benefits of Biological Age Testing

The insights gained from this testing are transformative. Our patients consistently report:

Greater understanding of how lifestyle factors affect their health at the cellular level
Increased motivation to maintain positive habits that are proven to be working
Clarity on which areas of their health and wellness require specific attention
Renewed determination when presented with opportunities for improvement
Empowerment through knowledge about their unique biological profile, sometimes surprised to learn excessiveness (in healthy habits and lifestyle choices) resulted in a negative impact
Validation of their wellness investments through measurable, scientific data

This testing serves as one of the cornerstones of our BioSculpt™ by BelleSante programs, providing objective measurements that help guide our recommendations and allow us to track your progress. It's truly the foundation of our commitment to optimal health and well-being and “HealthSpan Optimization.”

Your Biological Age Testing Experience at BioSculpt™ by BelleSante

Your journey begins with an initial meeting, where our BioSculpt™ experts will review your health history, evaluate your lifestyle and discuss your individual wellness goals to provide context for your upcoming Biological Age testing and review of results. We take time to understand not just your health concerns but also your personal aspirations for longevity and vitality.

The test requires only four drops of blood from a simple finger prick. Your sample is then analyzed in a laboratory. Within three weeks, you'll receive your results and a consultation with our experts at BioSculpt™ by BelleSante will be scheduled to discuss your findings. We'll help you understand what your biological age means and make recommendations tailored specifically to you.

Unlike standard medical tests that only measure disease markers, our Biological Age Testing evaluates your overall biological wellness. It doesn't simply tell you what's wrong — it reveals how efficiently your entire system is functioning. Your results provide a comprehensive snapshot of how your lifestyle choices have impacted your aging process so far, empowering you to make informed decisions that could potentially add healthy, vibrant years to your life.

Understanding Your Biological Age Test Results

After receiving your results, you'll meet with our experts, who will interpret your findings and develop a HealthSpan Optimization strategy designed just for you, which includes:

Comprehensive explanation of your biological age compared to your chronological age
Detailed analysis of factors potentially contributing to your current status
Personalized recommendations based on your unique biological profile
Integration of your results into a comprehensive BioSculpt™ Wellness and/or BioSculpt™ Fitness program
Development of your “Personalized Prescribed Fitness & Wellness" protocols

Over the following months, you'll likely experience improvements in various aspects of your health even before retesting if you are following the BioSculpt™ Playbook. We recommend retesting approximately six months after beginning your HealthSpan Optimization journey to validate your progress. With its objective measurement capabilities, Biological Age Testing provides the science-backed accountability and validation many need to pursue their longevity goals with purpose.

The BioSculpt™ Difference

At BioSculpt™ by BelleSante, we don’t just perform tests — we design “Personalized Prescribed Fitness & Wellness” programs with optimized guidance on ideal fitness and lifestyle modifications to help you achieve your highest goals. Our results-driven approach combines state-of-the-art DNA genomic analysis, Biological Age Testing, nutritional guidance and more, giving you the insights to manage multiple aspects of your health and aging simultaneously, with recommendations from our BioSculpt™ Playbook, tailored to your individual biology.

The BelleSante Difference

Many providers take an overly simplistic approach to neuromodulator treatments, focusing on individual lines without considering the whole picture. This can lead to results that are unnatural or unflattering for a patient’s specific features.

At BelleSante by Kristine Romine, MD, we consider how each facial feature and muscle group works together to create your unique expressions. Dr. Romine and Sara Romine, DNP, FNP-C, carefully observe your natural facial movements and create an injection map specific to your anatomy. We often integrate neuromodulators into our Exclusive Treatments, like The BelleSante Skin Gym, to deliver comprehensive rejuvenation that maximizes the health and beauty of your skin.

Balance and proportion guide our injection philosophy. Instead of over-treating certain areas, we distribute neuromodulators thoughtfully to create symmetry and harmony throughout your face, neck and even beyond. Dr. Romine’s signature micro-droplet technique delivers exceptionally natural results, so you'll leave BelleSante looking like you, only better.

Your Health and Longevity, Optimized

Transform your approach to aging with scientific precision and expert guidance. At BioSculpt™ by BelleSante, our experts deliver personalized testing followed by wellness protocols that enhance your body's natural capabilities while respecting your genetic uniqueness, allowing you to "Age Healthier" and Optimize your HealthSpan.
