About Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF)

Healthy, vibrant skin depends on the body’s ability to renew and repair itself over time. As we age, the natural regenerative process slows, leading to visible changes in skin texture, tone, and resilience. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor treatment (PDGF) is an advanced skin rejuvenation method designed to support the skin’s natural renewal process at the cellular level, helping restore a refreshed and healthy appearance. At Charlottesville Plastic Surgery, Platelet-Derived Growth Factor treatments are offered to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

What Are Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Treatments?

Platelet-Derived Growth Factors are naturally occurring proteins in the body that play a key role in tissue repair and cellular regeneration. In aesthetic medicine, Platelet-Derived Growth Factors are used to support skin revitalization by promoting healthy cellular activity. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor treatments are designed to enhance the skin’s natural processes rather than alter facial structure or expressions. This makes Platelet-Derived Growth Factors an appealing option for patients seeking natural-looking improvements in overall skin quality.

Who Is a Candidate for PDGF Treatment?

Platelet-Derived Growth Factor treatment may be an ideal option for individuals who are noticing early to moderate changes in skin texture, tone, or elasticity and are interested in a non-surgical approach to facial rejuvenation. It is often chosen by patients who prefer treatments that work with the body’s natural biology rather than relying solely on volume-based injectables. During your consultation, our team will review your skin concerns, medical history, and aesthetic goals to determine whether Platelet-Derived Growth Factors are right for you.

Nothing but praise for Charlottesville Plastic Surgery. Dr. Willis explained everything he needed to do clearly and his work was top-notch. When needed he made an immediate referral for me and explained exactly what I would expect from that. Great communication, efficient office.

Dr. Willis did a wonderful job with my surgery. He explained everything very well beforehand so I knew what to expect throughout the process. I would highly recommend Dr. Willis for any plastic surgery procedures. His patient care coordinator Leah is excellent and always available to assist with any questions and concerns.

I have had the best experience with Dr. Willis and Leah. I have had filler, Dysport, and I've been under the knife with Dr. Willis and I've been so happy with all of my results. I actually feel like a part of their family, I can call whenever I need anything and they both make me feel like they care about me and my results.

Dr. Willis and his staff were amazing! Very calm, clean and professional atmosphere. They were inviting and attentive. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I went in for a consultation and had my lip filler procedure in the same day. Quick and painless. The results are perfect. I highly recommend Dr.Willis and taking advantage of the referral program. 10/10!

What to Expect During Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Treatment

Platelet-Derived Growth Factor treatments are performed in-office and typically require minimal downtime. After our skin experts cleanse and prepare your skin, Platelet-Derived Growth Factors are applied or delivered according to your personalized treatment plan.

Most patients describe the experience as well-tolerated and mild. Your provider will review post-treatment care instructions to help support your results as your skin begins its natural renewal process.

Expected Results from Platelet-Derived Growth Factors

PDGF results develop gradually as the skin responds over time. Patients often notice improvements in skin texture, smoothness, and overall radiance in the weeks following treatment. Because PDGF supports the skin’s natural processes, results appear subtle and refreshed. Depending on your goals, PDGF may be recommended as a standalone treatment or as part of a broader skin care plan.
