FAQs
The short-term use of growth factors has shown high efficacy in moisturizing the skin, firming it, and improving elasticity. However, prolonged use may result in the growth of more blood vessels than necessary, leading to skin flushing and redness. Therefore, medical consultation is essential through Creative Arts Aesthetic.
Within Creative Arts Aesthetic, we use growth factors in the form of serums applied directly to the skin, or they are used as a complementary treatment with some dermatological cosmetic procedures such as needle injection or others.
Skin care and cosmetic techniques are essential parts of many people’s personal care routines, as individuals strive to maintain youthful and healthy skin. In this context, the use of cosmetic products containing cell-stimulating and rejuvenating compounds has become common, with Growth Factor Treatment technology standing out as one of the most important developments in the field of skin care, offered within Creative Arts Aesthetic.
1. Growth Factors
The mechanism of action of growth factor injections involves stimulating cell activity and enhancing skin repair processes due to the presence of growth factors that stimulate the growth of human cells. Growth factors are capable of stimulating collagen and elastin production, which play a crucial role in enhancing skin elasticity and smoothness. Additionally, this technology can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and improve overall skin texture.
2. Benefits of Using Growth Factors for the Skin
Since the 1950s, the use of growth factors in cosmetics has begun to take various forms due to their numerous benefits. Within Creative Arts Aesthetic, we recommend using different forms of growth factors and applying them in the clinic for several benefits, including:
- Increasing skin thickness by stimulating the production of more collagen and elastin
- Enhancing skin smoothness and improving skin quality
- Improving the appearance of fine lines and achieving a younger-looking skin
- Increasing the collagen content in the skin, which helps tighten the skin and reduce wrinkles or large pores
3. How to Obtain Growth Factors
While the primary role of growth factors is tissue repair, providing these molecules for skin care products varies significantly. Growth factors are obtained through genetic engineering in a laboratory or from human stem cells such as bone marrow stem cells, skin cells, and fat stem cells. Growth factors can also be extracted from platelet-rich plasma, along with other natural sources such as snails and some plants. These molecules have been proven to promote collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) production to reconstruct and reinforce the outer layer of the skin.
