What is Microneedling with PDGF?

Enhance microneedling with the regenerative power of PDGF.

Want to promote skin longevity and see visible, lasting results? Regenerative treatments are the way to go. By working with your body’s natural healing processes, they improve not only your skin’s appearance but also its long-term functionality.

One of those treatments is microneedling. Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF) elevate this collagen-stimulating treatment with even more regenerative benefits. Here’s what you need to know.

How does microneedling with PDGF work?

If you’ve struggled with uneven texture, scarring or dullness, you’re likely familiar with microneedling. This treatment uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the release of natural growth factors. These molecules signal the production of collagen and elastin to support tissue repair and healing.

Ariessence pure PDGF+ is a biocompatible replica of what the body naturally creates. It’s purified and developed to exact scientific standards, which means it contains a consistent concentration of growth factors.

During microneedling, we’ll apply PDGF topically to infuse those rejuvenating growth factors into the skin. We’ll apply the remainder to your skin post-treatment to enhance absorption and accelerate healing.

What are the benefits of PDGF?

In addition to enhancing microneedling results, PDGF supports collagen stimulation, skin quality and recovery. What does this look like? Here’s what you can expect:

  • Softer fine lines and wrinkles
  • Less visible scarring
  • Smoother texture
  • Firmer skin
  • More even tone
  • Decreased downtime
  • Long-term regeneration

Who’s a good candidate for microneedling with PDGF?

As we age, natural growth factor signaling can decline. This makes PDGF a great option for aging patients and those with certain health conditions, including blood disorders. It’s also ideal for anyone who wants regenerative benefits without a blood draw.

How long will it take to see results?

In general, we recommend 3-4 treatments for best results, but you’ll start seeing improvements as collagen begins to build. For those targeting fine lines, wrinkles and signs of aging, results are usually visible after one or two treatments. For those targeting melasma and scarring, results are usually visible after two or three treatments.

Think PDGF might be a good option for you? Book a consultation with one of our board-certified providers. We’ll thoroughly assess your skin and develop a treatment plan tailored to you.
