Growth Factors

Growth factors are naturally occurring proteins that regulate cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation. In professional skincare, they accelerate skin repair and rejuvenation by stimulating the body's own regenerative processes.

What Are Growth Factors?

Growth factors include EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor), FGF (Fibroblast Growth Factor), VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor), and TGF-β (Transforming Growth Factor). Each plays a specific role in wound healing and tissue regeneration. When applied topically at clinical concentrations, they activate the same repair pathways that the body uses to heal wounds.

Clinical Evidence

Studies show that topical growth factors can increase skin thickness by up to 37% and reduce photodamage scores by 33% over 12 weeks. When combined with microneedling, growth factors penetrate deeper and achieve enhanced results.

For Aesthetic Professionals

Growth factors are the ideal post-procedure product. Applied immediately after microneedling or laser treatments, they accelerate healing and enhance results. Skymedic's growth factor serums are formulated specifically for professional post-treatment application.
