Skin Therapy for Rejuvenation and Collagen Building with Dr. Allison Pontius

As we age, our skin becomes more prone to age spots, volume loss, and uneven pigmentation. Frequent sun exposure only exacerbates these signs, making us appear older than we feel. While there are many non-surgical skin treatments available, only a select few offer effective results without relying on external additives. Dr. Allison Pontius offers a natural and effective solution to skin rejuvenation, using your own growth factors to stimulate collagen production and restore youthful vitality.

Personal Growth Factors for Skin Therapy

Personal growth factors are naturally extracted from your blood using a centrifuge. These factors are then injected into areas of concern, where they work to accelerate skin healing and rejuvenation. This innovative therapy can provide noticeable results without the need for synthetic additives. When combined with microneedling, the application process becomes even more effective. Microneedling helps prime the skin, allowing for deeper absorption of the growth factors, as well as other topical gels, creams, and serums, enhancing the overall outcome.

Skin Therapy Procedure

At the office of Dr. Allison Pontius, your journey begins with a thorough assessment of your skin type and concerns. If skin therapy using personal growth factors is the right treatment for you, the process will start with the extraction of a small amount of blood. The growth factors are then separated and prepared for injection into the targeted areas. The procedure often follows microneedling or laser treatments, which help to create micro-channels in your skin for better absorption of the therapeutic growth factors or exosomes.

A hydrating gel will be applied to minimize any discomfort, as certain areas may be more sensitive than others. The procedure typically takes between 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the scope of the treatment.

Exosomes for Hair Loss

Exosomes are an innovative addition to aesthetic treatments. These cellular communication agents work similarly to growth factors but focus more on enhancing cell-to-cell communication. Exosomes help exchange RNA and proteins that facilitate tissue repair. In hair loss treatments, they can significantly boost the results, strengthening hair follicles and promoting healthier hair growth. Exosomes can be applied through our Potenza™ RF Fusion Tip for targeted, effective results.

Treatment Results

You’ll begin to see improvements in skin texture and facial volume immediately after your session. For optimal results, 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart are recommended. Full results typically become visible around 6 months after completing the treatment series. While some redness may occur following the procedure, it generally resolves within 2-4 days, with minimal downtime overall.
