Concerns Treated
Thinning Hair
Thinning hair can effect both men and women of all ages. While causes can vary from health issues to diseases, genetics to stress, many people will experience hair thinning at some point in their life. Although it can be frustrating, there are many treatments available to improve and sometimes reverse hair thinning.
Uneven Skin Tone/Texture
Uneven pigmentation and skin texture issues are common and can occur for a number of reasons. Hyperpigmentation is the most common cause of uneven skin tone and texture, which is due to excess melanin production in the skin. Other causes range from hereditary skin conditions to lifestyle choices, acne and scarring, and hormonal changes. Dark spots, rough, bumpy, or reddish areas can be unflattering, distressing, and in some rare cases, dangerous. Finding the cause of your uneven skin tone or texture is the first step towards getting the treatment you need to resolve it.
Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Smooth as a baby’s bottom. Not saying we necessarily want to correlate that to our faces, but the idea is the same. Fine lines, fine wrinkles, and crepey skin can disrupt the surface of our skin — let’s fix that.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Platelet-Derived Growth Factor?
Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) makes use of numerous cytokines using a natural protein released by platelet cells to improve a myriad conditions thanks to the abundance of PDGF receptors in the body. PDGF can interact with fibroblasts, macrophages, mesenchymal cells, and antibodies. Platelet-derived growth factor receptors exist in vascular smooth muscle cells, connective tissue (like collagen), epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and various other cell types. PDGF can help the body build new blood vessels, hasten wound healing, enhance chemotaxis (cell signal transduction and signaling pathways), and even lessen chronic disease burden in conditions like atherosclerosis or those with tumors (like gliomas). There are multiple heterodimers of PDGF isoforms including PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, PDGF-AB, PDGF-A, and PDGF-B. The full role of PDGF subunits is still being researched.
