PDGF and growth factor therapy is a regenerative treatment designed to stimulate cellular repair, collagen production, and tissue renewal to improve skin and hair health over time.
Overview
PDGF, or platelet-derived growth factor, is a naturally occurring protein involved in tissue repair and regeneration. In aesthetic medicine, PDGF and growth factor therapy uses bioengineered or biologically derived growth factors to stimulate collagen production, improve circulation, and support cellular renewal.
This therapy is commonly used to improve skin quality, accelerate healing, and support hair regrowth by activating dormant cells and enhancing the body’s natural repair processes. Because it works at a cellular level, results develop gradually and appear natural, making it a popular option for patients seeking regenerative improvement rather than immediate volume or structural change.
Pricing varies based on treatment area, formulation used, and number of sessions required. Costs reflect product quality, provider expertise, and clinical oversight.

Patients often require a series of treatments for optimal results. Combination therapy with microneedling or hair restoration procedures may influence the total cost.
PDGF and growth factors signal cells to repair damaged tissue, stimulate collagen, and improve blood supply. This regenerative response leads to healthier skin and improved follicle function over time.
Skin aging, poor texture, thinning hair, delayed healing, and early tissue degeneration.
Most sessions take 30 to 60 minutes.
Healthy adults seeking regenerative improvement without surgery.
Minimal downtime. Mild redness or sensitivity may last 24 to 48 hours.
PDGF therapy delivers targeted growth factors without requiring a blood draw, while PRP uses platelets derived from your own blood. Both aim to stimulate regeneration but differ in formulation and consistency.
Results can last months to years depending on the condition treated and maintenance schedule. Periodic treatments help sustain collagen and follicle activity.
When performed by licensed providers using regulated products, the treatment has a strong safety profile with low complication rates.
Some patients notice early improvements within weeks, but optimal results typically develop over two to three months as tissue remodeling occurs.
Yes. PDGF therapy is often paired with microneedling, laser treatments, or hair restoration procedures to enhance overall outcomes.
