Growth Factor Rejuvenation (growth factor) FAQs
Everything you need to know before your treatment
What is Growth Factor Rejuvenation Therapy?
It’s a regenerative skin treatment that uses microneedling combined with your body’s own growth factors to stimulate collagen, improve skin texture, and accelerate healing. It’s popular for both face and body concerns.
Is this the same as a growth factor facial or vampire facial?
Yes. These terms all refer to treatments that use growth factor from your own blood to rejuvenate skin. We call it Growth Factor Rejuvenation to focus on its clinical benefits for both face and body.
What skin concerns does this help with?
It’s used to treat fine lines, acne scars, large pores, dull tone, sun damage, and stretch marks. It also improves firmness and elasticity in aging or weakened skin.
How many sessions do I need?
We typically recommend 3 to 6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. You may begin seeing visible results after just 1 or 2 treatments.
Is there downtime after growth factor treatment?
Mild redness, swelling, and sensitivity are normal for 1–3 days. Most clients return to daily activities the next day. We provide full aftercare guidance.
Can I use this on my body too?
Yes. It’s effective on the neck, chest, hands, abdomen, thighs, and more — especially for stretch marks, scars, and crepey texture.
Is growth factor safe for all skin types?
Yes. Since it uses your body’s own natural components, growth factor is safe for all skin tones and types. It’s a great option for those avoiding synthetic treatments.
How is growth factor rejuvenation different from regular microneedling?
Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels; adding your own concentrated growth factors into those channels accelerates repair and collagen production, so results are stronger and recovery is faster than microneedling alone.
What does it treat?
Fine lines, dull tone, acne scars, enlarged pores, mild laxity, stretch marks and crepey skin on the neck, chest and hands. It is also used for thinning hair at the scalp.
Does it hurt and what is the downtime?
Numbing cream keeps it comfortable. Expect redness for two to three days and mild flaking for up to a week. Avoid makeup for 24 hours and sun for a week.
Is it safe?
The growth factors come from your own blood, so there is nothing foreign to react to. The procedure is performed by trained providers in a clinical setting with single-use sterile equipment.
Can I combine it with RF microneedling or laser?
Yes. Many Calgary clients alternate growth factor sessions with RF microneedling or Fotona laser treatments. Your provider builds the schedule so each treatment supports the next.
