Growth factor injection program

Introduction to growth factor injection cosmetic procedures

In the field of cosmetic medicine, "growth factor injections" generally refer to procedures that utilize growth factors to promote skin regeneration and anti-aging. The main forms include:

• PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injection : Plasma rich in platelets and various growth factors is extracted from one's own blood and injected into the face or scalp to promote collagen production and skin repair.
• PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) or PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor) injections : PRF is an upgraded version of PRP, releasing growth factors more slowly and for a longer duration; PDGF is a more purified single growth factor, often used for targeted regenerative therapy.
• Other methods, such as EGF (epidermal growth factor) microneedling or injection, are used for skin rejuvenation.

These projects fall under the category of regenerative aesthetic medicine , which emphasizes using autologous or biocompatible ingredients to stimulate the skin's self-repair rather than simply filling in fillers.

Project Principles

Growth factors are proteins naturally secreted by the human body that can activate fibroblasts and promote the synthesis of collagen and elastin, as well as the formation of new blood vessels. After injection, they can improve skin texture, tighten contours, and reduce fine lines.

Typical treatment process:

1. A small amount of your own blood is drawn (or a purified growth factor preparation is used).
2. Centrifugation is used to concentrate growth factors.
3. Combine microneedling or direct injection into target areas (such as nasolabial folds, around the eyes, and cheekbones).
4. Each treatment session lasts approximately 30-60 minutes, and usually requires 3-6 treatment sessions.

Advantages

• Natural and safe : It uses mostly its own ingredients, has a low risk of rejection, and leaves no foreign matter residue.
• Multiple benefits in one : improves skin texture, firms, fights aging, fades scars, and promotes hair growth (often used in hair loss treatment).
• Quick recovery : minimally invasive, short downtime, usually only slight redness and swelling.
• Long-lasting and gradual : It stimulates the regeneration of collagen, and the effect can last for 9-18 months.
• Highly compatible : It can be used in conjunction with hyaluronic acid injections, laser treatments, and fillers to enhance the overall effect.
