How it works

PDGF-BB is a naturally occurring growth factor involved in the body’s healing process. When applied following treatments that create controlled microchannels in the skin, it helps signal skin cells to begin repairing damaged tissue.

This regenerative process may help:

  • Stimulate collagen and elastin production

  • Improve skin texture and tone

  • Support faster recovery after aesthetic procedures

  • Reduce the appearance of fine lines

  • Enhance overall skin quality and radiance

By working with your body’s own healing response, PDGF-BB promotes healthier, stronger skin over time.

Personalized Treatment PlanS

During Treatment

PDGF-BB is typically used immediately after treatments such as microneedling or laser resurfacing, allowing it to penetrate the skin through tiny treatment channels. The application adds only a few minutes to your procedure.

After Treatment

Recovery is similar to the procedure you’re receiving. Mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity is common and usually resolves within a few days.

Many patients notice healthier, more radiant skin as healing progresses, with continued improvements in texture and firmness developing over several weeks as new collagen forms.

Your provider will recommend the ideal treatment plan based on your skin goals.

However, it is recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, hot baths, and prolonged sun exposure for a few days following the treatment to ensure optimal results.
