How It Works

Understanding Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) Treatments

Anything from acne scars to sun exposure can cause skin damage over time, especially when collagen production decreases as we age. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) is an FDA-approved treatment that stimulates collagen production, accelerating healthy cell renewal for both outer and deeper layers of skin. And, unlike PRP or dermal fillers, pure PDGF delivers consistent results without the need for a blood draw.

In-Depth Consultation

First, we determine what your skin needs with an in-depth consultation. We'll evaluate your skin's surface, taking note of pigmentation, acne scars, and age spots. After thorough evaluation, we'll then discuss treatment options, including whether PDGF should be combined with other skin treatments like laser resurfacing, chemical solutions, or microneedling with fine needles. Each treatment plan is fully customized to your unique goals and skin type.

Skin Treatments

Our expert team applies a topical, pure PDGF either as a stand-alone remedy or after skin resurfacing procedures like chemical peel, laser, and light treatments. The topical solution then hydrates the skin and provides the building blocks to smooth the textural irregularities on the top layers. The treatment works for a variety of different skin types, repairing skin damage, minimizing scars, and improving skin texture for a refreshed appearance.

Post-Treatment Skin Rejuvenation

PDGF can boost collagen production in your entire face and neck without the downtime associated with wire brush dermabrasion or deeper chemical peels. While patients may experience mild redness as the skin begins its natural renewal process, most can also immediately return to daily activities. Over the following weeks, increased collagen production improves irregularities caused by sun damage or acne scars and reduces the fine lines and wrinkles associated with aging skin.
