PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor)

Your body already has the tools to heal, regenerate, and renew itself, and PDGF treatment helps unlock its natural potential.

PDGF, or Platelet-Derived Growth Factor, is a naturally occurring protein that signals your cells to repair and regenerate tissue. It was originally developed to aid diabetic wound healing and later used extensively in dental applications to accelerate healing in bone graft procedures. Some surgeons even use it internally before closing a patient’s incision, making it a trusted, proven technology.

At BodyLase Med Spa, we use an advanced PDGF topical therapy that leverages the soothing hydration of hyaluronic acid to enhance collagen production and rejuvenate skin. 

When applied topically after aesthetic treatments like microneedling, it sends a message to your skin, helping accelerate healing and restore a radiant, healthy appearance.

How PDGF Works

PDGF treatment is rooted in regenerative science. Platelet-derived growth factors are natural proteins that are applied topically to the treated area after a rejuvenating procedure, such as microneedling or laser skin resurfacing. As the PDGF absorbs into the skin, it binds to cell receptors that trigger healing, renewal, and collagen remodeling.

Your body recognizes PDGF as a natural repair signal, which jumpstarts tissue regeneration and strengthens skin structure. Because it works synergistically with your body’s natural biology, PDGF is gentle and highly effective for promoting long-term skin health.

PDGF Benefits

PDGF offers an impressive range of aesthetic and restorative benefits. It’s often used after traditional and radiofrequency microneedling and laser resurfacing treatments to speed recovery and boost results.

Key Benefits of PDGF Treatment:

• Enhances collagen and elastin production: Supports natural structural proteins in the skin for improved firmness, tone, and long-term resilience.
  
• Accelerates healing: Reduces inflammation and recovery time after microneedling and other med spa treatments.
  
• Supports tissue regeneration: Signals new cell growth in areas of mild trauma or chronic skin damage.
  
• Improves vascularization: Encourages blood flow in treatment areas, ensuring essential oxygen and nutrients reach healing tissues faster.

With results that look as natural as they feel, PDGF is an ideal companion to microneedling and other skin rejuvenation services at BodyLase.

PDGF Treatment

Because PDGF is a naturally occurring protein, it’s biocompatible and safe for nearly all skin types. Whether your goal is skin rejuvenation or hair restoration, our licensed medical professionals tailor each treatment to your needs.

Your PDGF experience at BodyLase begins with a detailed skin analysis. From there, your provider will determine the ideal protocol to achieve optimal visible improvement. 

Think of PDGF treatment as an insurance policy for your treatment. It’s not an injection or filler — it’s a topical regenerative therapy that enriches the aesthetic treatments you already know and love:

• Microneedling: After creating controlled microchannels in the skin, PDGF is applied to accelerate healing and amplify collagen stimulation.
  
• Morpheus8 & Virtue RF: Following radiofrequency microneedling, PDGF helps minimize downtime and enhances your skin’s texture.
