ABOUT US
At Anti-Aging & Functional Medicine, we believe in treating each patient as a unique individual with personalized needs. Our approach is rooted in holistic, individualized medical care, with the goal of optimizing your well-being and energy levels to help you feel and look more youthful and vibrant.
Dr. Arthur Zacco, the first board-certified anti-aging physician in Wake County and eastern North Carolina, has a deep passion for this field. After 17 years as a family practitioner, he was inspired by patients in 2007 to explore anti-aging medicine. This pivotal moment led him to dedicate his practice to helping others achieve long-term vitality and optimal health.
Low hormone levels in both men and women can have significant and detrimental effects on overall health and well-being. At Anti-Aging & Functional Medicine, we offer Bio-Identical Hormonal Pellet Therapy, often regarded as the “Cadillac of HRT.” This method delivers a consistent and steady release of hormones, closely mimicking the natural hormonal balance of a younger person, helping to restore vitality and improve quality of life.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) can significantly enhance a man’s sex drive, confidence, energy levels, sleep quality, muscle mass, focus, and overall well-being. Low testosterone (Low T) has been linked to various health challenges in both men and women, including decreased muscle mass, increased body fat, fatigue, hair loss, and more. At Anti-Aging & Functional Medicine, Dr. Arthur Zacco personally performs all TRT pellet insertions, ensuring the highest level of care and expertise throughout your treatment.
Thyroid hormone plays a vital role in regulating your body’s metabolism, the process by which food is converted into energy. Achieving and maintaining optimal Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) levels—not just within the normal range—is crucial for overall health and energy balance. Equally important is ensuring your nutrient levels are properly aligned to support healthy thyroid function.
In 2009, Anti-Aging & Functional Medicine merged with AZ Hair Restoration to expand the range of services available to our patients. The practice was renamed to reflect this broader scope, now offering comprehensive solutions that include advanced hair restoration techniques alongside our functional medicine and anti-aging treatments.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a convenient in-office procedure, typically lasting about one hour. It is commonly used for scalp injections to treat hair loss and joint injections to significantly reduce pain in areas such as the knees and shoulders. The treatment involves minimal discomfort, requires no downtime, and allows you to drive yourself home immediately after the procedure.
