Cosmetic Concerns

If you look and the mirror and feel discouraged when you see signs of aging on your face, you’re not alone. Many individuals seek help from a dermatologist when they are bothered by wrinkles, fine lines, and loose skin.

Bio-Enhanced Skin Therapy for Age-Fighting Rejuvenation

Many of our patients are unhappy with their wrinkles, skin laxity, fine lines, and skin aging in general. This is where our innovative bio-enhanced skin therapy (BEST) using procedures can make a significant improvement. Using the power of cytokine-rich plasma (CRP) in a natural protein matrix, we offer anti-aging treatments to firm and smooth the skin of the face, neck, chest, and hands by inducing brand-new collagen growth and cell renewal.

What is CRP?

Cytokine-rich plasma can be used as your body’s very own beauty serum. Taken from your blood, this powerful solution contains growth factors that provide significant improvement in photodamaged skin, collagen loss, and more. CRP targets your skin at the cellular level, using your body’s own natural regenerative capacity to achieve age-fighting rejuvenation.

The Three Components of CRP/Matrix

Our unique and natural CRP/Matrix at Greco Dermatology contains three main components:

Growth factors with anabolic properties
Anti-inflammatory cytokines
Natural protein matrix

The CRP Procedure for Cosmetic Concerns

Our bio-enhanced procedures always begin with a consultation. We will go over your aesthetic concerns and your goals for the procedure. We will explain how the treatment works and what you can expect.

On the day of your treatment, we will take a small amount of blood from your arm. We will then place this sample inside a centrifuge to separate the cytokine-rich plasma from the red blood cells. This serum will then be added to a syringe so that it can be either injected or incorporated into microneedling or laser therapy. To keep you comfortable, we utilize topical numbing cream, cold spray, and/or distraction techniques to minimize any injection-related pain.

The reason that the CRP is frequently combined with microneedling or laser therapy is to further harness your body’s regenerative capacity to achieve the most beautiful results. Utilizing multiple techniques means that the CRP/Matrix is able to reach the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue all in the same session to target all levels of the skin. This means improvement in photoaging, volume restoration, softening of fine lines and pores, normalization of skin texture and tone, and an overall rejuvenating glow.

Face and Brow

Want to fight the aging process naturally? At Greco Dermatology, we have developed our Biofacial — a treatment that achieves a natural and youthful appearance and addresses the following concerns:

Collagen loss
Photo aging
Fine lines and wrinkles
Volume loss
Sagging skin
Large pores
Abnormal skin texture and tone

Neck

The neck and décolletage are particularly susceptible to photoaging because the skin is much thinner here than in other areas; plus, this area typically gets lots of sun exposure. CRP/Matrix improves the appearance of wrinkles and creases by regenerating collagen, elastin, and blood vessels. Bio-enhanced skin therapy for the neck addresses:

Fine wrinkles
Dilated vessels
Heavy lines
Sunspots
Crepey skin

Chest

If you want to improve the appearance of loose, wrinkled, crepey chest skin that has broken capillaries, excess redness, or irregular pigmentation, bio-enhanced skin therapy for the chest may be perfect for you. Our CRP/Matrix therapy has the ability to improve:

Loss of collagen
Dry, wrinkled texture
Photo aging
Fine lines and wrinkles
Sagging skin
Abnormal skin texture and tone

Hands

The older you become, the more collagen is lost in your hands. This can cause the skin of the hands to get very thin, which results in more visible tendons, veins, and bones. This results in an aged appearance. However, when bio-enhanced skin therapy with CRP/Matrix is administered to the backs of the hands, it kick-starts new collagen and elastin growth. This may result in firmer, plumper skin — thereby helping your hands look more youthful.

Scars

If you’re bothered by a scar or multiple scars on your face or body, we offer bio-enhanced skin therapy for scars. These treatments break through scar tissue and deliver platelets and growth factors to stimulate healing and tissue regeneration. The CRP’s growth factors promote collagen and elastin to help healthy new cells grow where your scarring is, making it less visible. We also offer scar camouflage using pigment to blend scarring into the surrounding skin.

Stretch Marks

Stretch marks are essentially impossible to avoid. They develop due to body changes such as growth spurts, pregnancy, sudden weight gain and loss, and rapid muscle growth. If you want to reduce the appearance of your stretch marks, our bio-enhanced skin therapy for stretch marks treatments can enhance collagen production, helping your skin to heal from within and build more tissue. This lightens up the stretch marks and achieves a tighter, smoother texture. We also offer stretch mark camouflage using pigment to blend these stripes into the surrounding skin.

Bio-Enhanced Topical Therapy

Imagine incorporating your body’s own powerful growth factors to use in your everyday personalized skincare regimen. This is exactly what we do at Greco Dermatology. You can now take home a custom-made topical that utilizes your very own cytokine-rich plasma, taken from your blood in an office visit.

After your blood is taken, it will be separated from the red blood cells and other impurities to get the CRP.

This is then combined into a take-home Nova™ Skin Serum Kit for application into your daily skincare regimen.

Your personal bio-enhanced topical therapy will help to:

Regenerate collagen
Reduce small pores, fine lines, and dark spots that accrue with photo aging
