Good for

  • Redness and downtime after a procedure
  • Fine lines and texture
  • Dull or thin skin
How it works+

The growth factor is the same one used in FDA approved wound healing products. In aesthetics it is sold as a topical applied through the open channels left by SkinPen, Morpheus8, UltraClear or a peel. Early data from a small study showed calmer skin and less redness the day after Morpheus8.

What it feels like+

Nothing extra. It is applied while the skin is already numb.

Afterward+

Users report calmer, less red skin on day one.

Not for you if+
  • A known allergy to the product
  • Anyone not having one of the paired procedures

Sydney goes through this with you before anything starts.

Pairs well with+

SkinPen, Morpheus8, UltraClear, BioRePeel.

PDGF or PRP?+

PRP comes from your blood and takes a draw and a spin. PDGF comes from a vial. Both are applied the same way. PDGF skips the needle in your arm.

Is it FDA approved?+

The growth factor molecule has FDA approvals in wound and dental products. The aesthetic serum itself is a topical, not an approved drug, and we say so.

Is it worth adding?+

If you want the least downtime from a procedure, it is the add on that targets exactly that.
