Home / Microneedling with Growth Factors
Microneedling with Growth Factors pairs the precise micro-channeling of SkinPen, the first and only FDA-cleared microneedling device in the world, with topically applied growth factors that are introduced into the skin during the session. Growth factors are naturally occurring proteins that play a key role in supporting cell repair, tissue regeneration, and the production of collagen and elastin. When applied during a microneedling session, they are delivered directly into the deeper layers of the skin through the microchannels created by the device, where they can support the skin’s healing process more effectively than microneedling alone. At Enchanted Medical Aesthetics, each treatment plan is tailored to the individual patient’s concerns and goals.
A consultation is the best first step for patients who want to find out whether this treatment fits their skin goals. Our providers will review your concerns, go over your health history, and confirm whether this approach is the most appropriate option before any session is scheduled.
A gradual decline in collagen and elastin over time contributes to the formation of fine lines and surface-level wrinkles. The combination of microneedling and growth factors supports new collagen production in the treated area, helping to soften these concerns progressively over the course of treatment.
Surface-level scarring from acne or other causes can affect the overall look and feel of the skin. Microneedling with Growth Factors works to resurface the treated area and support tissue repair, helping to improve the appearance of scarring and textural concerns over a series of sessions.
A lackluster complexion and uneven tone are often tied to a slowdown in cell turnover and reduced skin vitality. The growth factors applied during this treatment support the skin’s renewal process, contributing to a more even, brighter, and healthier-looking complexion over time.
A gradual softening of the skin’s underlying structure is a concern many patients notice as they get older. This treatment helps support the skin’s structural proteins, contributing to improved overall firmness and skin quality with each successive session.
Patients who want to support the long-term health and quality of their skin without addressing a single specific concern can benefit from this treatment as part of a broader skin health plan. Results build gradually and continue to develop in the weeks following each session.
Pricing will be covered during your consultation. Patients are asked to arrive well hydrated, avoid sun exposure for two weeks before and after treatment, and stop using topical acids and retinols three to five days prior to their appointment.
At the start of the session, SkinPen is guided across the treatment area, creating a series of precise microchannels in the skin’s surface. These controlled micro-injuries prompt the body to initiate its natural repair process, stimulating new collagen and elastin production in the treated area. Growth factors are applied topically during the session and penetrate the skin through the open microchannels, reaching the layers where they can most effectively support healing and tissue renewal. The addition of growth factors to a standard microneedling session enhances the overall outcome, supporting faster recovery and more significant improvements in skin quality over time. Mild redness following the appointment is typical and generally resolves within a few days.
Both approaches pair microneedling with bioactive compounds that support the skin’s healing process. PRP uses growth factors derived from the patient’s own blood, while this treatment uses topically applied growth factor products. No blood draw is required for microneedling with growth factors, making it a suitable option for patients who prefer to avoid that step.
The number of sessions varies depending on the concern being addressed and the individual’s skin response. Your provider will outline a realistic plan during your consultation tailored to your goals and skin condition.
Most patients notice initial improvement within one to two weeks after the session. As new collagen continues to develop and the skin renews itself, results become more noticeable over the weeks and months that follow.
Numbing cream is applied ahead of the session to keep patients comfortable throughout the treatment. Most patients find the appointment easy to tolerate. Your provider will go over what to expect before getting started.
Downtime is generally minimal. Some mild redness in the treated area is normal and typically settles within a few days. Most patients are able to return to their normal routine shortly after the appointment.
Sun exposure should be avoided for two weeks leading up to the session, and topical acids and retinols should be stopped three to five days beforehand. Staying well hydrated in the 24 hours before the appointment is also recommended. Your provider will go over a complete list of pre-treatment instructions during your consultation.
If uneven skin tone, fine lines, scarring, or overall skin quality has been a concern, our team is here to help you find out whether this treatment is the right fit. Book a consultation and learn what this approach can do for your skin.
