Rejuvenate Your Skin
at the Cellular Level

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a naturally occurring signaling protein that plays a crucial role in tissue regeneration. In aesthetic treatments, topical PDGF formulations help support your skin’s renewal processes, particularly when paired with procedures like laser treatments or microneedling. PDGF treatments may improve the appearance of fine lines, crepey skin, and uneven texture, promoting a smoother, healthier-looking complexion.

PDGF Treats:

  • Fine lines and early signs of skin aging
  • Crepey, thin-looking skin
  • Rough or uneven skin texture
  • Dullness and loss of natural radiance
  • Mild skin laxity and reduced firmness
  • Dryness and compromised skin quality
  • Uneven skin tone and superficial discoloration
  • Visible signs of environmental and sun damage
  • Delicate, aging skin around the eyes

How Does PDGF Work?

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a signaling protein that binds to specialized receptors on skin cells, activating pathways involved in tissue repair and regeneration. It helps stimulate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and other components of your skin’s extracellular matrix. When applied after microneedling, PDGF may support your skin’s natural healing response and collagen remodeling, gradually improving the appearance of fine lines, uneven texture, and overall skin quality over time.

Benefits of PDGF:

  • Supports your skin’s natural repair and renewal processes
  • Encourages fibroblast activity involved in collagen production
  • Helps restore a healthier, more radiant-looking complexion
  • Complements microneedling and other skin rejuvenation treatments
  • Targets visible signs of aging without adding facial volume
  • Offers a regenerative approach to improving skin quality
  • Supports subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation

How Is PDGF Different From PRP or PRF?

Although all three treatments involve growth factors, they differ in how they’re prepared and used. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are derived from your own blood and contain a mixture of growth factors. PDGF treatments use a formulated product containing a specific growth factor, eliminating the need for a blood draw when applied topically.

FAQs

Yes. PDGF is frequently incorporated into skincare protocols alongside microneedling and certain resurfacing procedures. Combining treatments may help address multiple concerns while supporting your skin’s recovery. At Renew, your provider considers your skin condition, treatment history, and goals before recommending an appropriate combination.

The recommended number of sessions depends on your concerns, the PDGF formulation, and whether it’s paired with another procedure. Some patients may benefit from a series of sessions rather than a single appointment. Your provider will explain the recommended schedule and help you establish realistic expectations for gradual improvements in skin quality.

PDGF can complement a personalized skincare routine focused on maintaining healthy, resilient skin. Rather than changing your appearance, it supports subtle improvements in skin quality. This aligns with Renew’s philosophy of The Natural Oklahoma Look, emphasizing refined, natural-looking rejuvenation that respects your individual features.
