NATURAL GROWTH FACTORS
IN SALT LAKE CITY, UT
Natural growth factors from regenerative treatments like platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) offer natural and effective solutions for various cosmetic procedures. The growth factors come from the patient's own blood, eliminating the risk of allergic reactions or rejection. This offers a natural and long-lasting solution by harnessing the body's innate healing mechanisms.
At Nuance, natural growth factor treatments offer exceptional natural results and clinical safety. While platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been the industry standard for years, we utilize platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) because it contains more growth factors and more cells that remain active in the tissues for longer.

Natural growth factors are proteins in your blood that aid in healing and regeneration. These growth factors are isolated to create a gel-like substance without any chemicals. This natural gel can be applied topically or injected for aesthetic purposes. When used on the skin, it promotes rejuvenation and reduces scar visibility by enhancing tissue regeneration. For hair restoration, PRF injections into the scalp can boost hair growth and strengthen follicles, resulting in improved hair density.
The growth factor process begins with a blood draw, similar to a routine lab test. This blood is then processed in a specialized centrifuge to separate the concentrated natural growth factors from the red blood cells. Once ready, the material is injected into the targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. The entire procedure is unhurried, clinical, and centered on your comfort.
Growth factors can be utilized in various aesthetic treatments, including facial rejuvenation, scar revision, hair restoration, and skin rejuvenation. In facial rejuvenation, growth factors can be injected into specific areas to enhance skin quality, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improve overall skin tone. It can also be combined with other cosmetic procedures like microneedling or laser therapy for enhanced results.
Hair Restoration
If you are struggling with thinning, weak, or brittle hair, growth factor injections might be the solution you are looking for! Hair restoration with growth factors will likely take 3-4 treatments to see significant improvements in hair thinning. Each appointment is scheduled 4-6 weeks apart to allow the hair to grow and the growth factors to take full effect.
Scar Treatment
Natural growth factors can be injected or microneedled into the skin to diminish the appearance of stretch marks and superficial and surgical scarring. Treating surgical scars with natural growth factors is an excellent option that will likely require more than one appointment to achieve optimal results.

Facial Injections
Natural growth factors can be strategically injected into areas of the face to stimulate collagen production, tighten lax skin, improve overall texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Come to your appointment hydrated and ready to have a blood sample drawn. It addresses textural issues, volume loss (like nasolabial folds and marionette lines), and can also be used to treat dark circles and "tired" eyes by improving skin quality.
Because natural growth factors like PRF contain no chemical additives or anticoagulants, they are considered the purest and safest options available in modern aesthetics. Unlike traditional plasma treatments, the fibrin matrix in PRF provides a more robust, long-lasting release of growth factors, which act as powerful biostimulator, triggering the body to produce new collagen and essential proteins.
This process doesn't just provide a temporary "fill" for a wrinkle; it fundamentally improves the health and texture of your tissues. Most importantly, the natural gel material created through the harvesting process integrates seamlessly with your skin, ensuring a soft, smooth, and radiant finish that honors your unique facial character.
If you are looking for a 100% natural alternative to synthetic fillers, you are the perfect candidate for natural growth factor treatments. Growth factors are an ideal solution for patients with thin skin, under-eye hollows, or those who prefer a bio-filler derived from their own blood. Because it is autologous (sourced from your own tissue), there is virtually no risk of allergic reaction. Growth factor treatments may not be suitable for patients with severe platelet disorders or those currently undergoing certain anticoagulant therapies.
There is no significant downtime after a growth factor treatment, though you should expect mild swelling or a full sensation in the treated area for 24–48 hours as the gel integrates. To ensure the best results, we recommend staying hydrated and avoiding strenuous exercise or extreme heat (like saunas) for the first day. Since we use your own growth factors to trigger repair, avoiding anti-inflammatory medications like Ibuprofen for a few days post-treatment is encouraged to allow the natural inflammatory healing response to work its magic.
The beauty of growth factor treatments is the two-fold transformation. You will see an immediate improvement in volume and smoothing of fine lines as the gel is injected. Over the following weeks, the PRF releases a high concentration of growth factors that stimulate your body to produce new collagen and elastin, improving the actual quality and thickness of your skin from the inside out.
While the immediate volume provides a beautiful refresh, the biological work continues for months. For the best results, we typically recommend a series of two treatments. Your rejuvenated skin quality can last a year or more, providing a refreshed look that is entirely, authentically you.
Working with natural growth factors requires a high level of clinical sophistication and timing. At Nuance, we utilize advanced centrifugation protocols to ensure we capture the highest concentration of regenerative cells possible. Our team combines this cutting-edge bio-technology with a master’s eye for facial anatomy, ensuring your bio-filler is placed precisely where it will provide the most natural lift and luminosity.
