Here are answers to commonly asked questions by patients seeking treatment with Skin Rejuvenation.
What is PRF?
Platelet-rich fibrin. A small blood sample is spun to concentrate your platelets, growth factors and a natural fibrin scaffold. Nothing is added – it is 100% your own tissue.
Who is a good candidate for exosome therapy?
Exosome therapy is a great option for adults seeking overall skin quality improvement or support after collagen-stimulating procedures. It may be helpful for concerns such as dullness, texture changes, fine lines, or post-procedure recovery support.
It may not be appropriate for people who are pregnant, breastfeeding, immunocompromised, or have active infections or skin cancers in the treatment area. A consultation determines the best and safest option for you.
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream is applied first. Most patients feel warmth and pressure rather than pain. The neck and jawline can be more sensitive than the cheeks.
Which treatment is best for acne scars?
For many people, microneedling or RF microneedling. The right one depends on scar depth and skin laxity, which we assess in person.
Is this the same as a facelift?
No. Non-surgical tightening gives a natural, visible improvement for early to moderate laxity. If your degree of laxity needs a surgeon, we will tell you.
What are exosomes?
Tiny particles that cells use to send signals to each other. They carry proteins and growth factors, including signals linked to repair, inflammation and collagen production.
