Factor4®
Autologous Growth Factor Therapy
Advanced autologous regenerative therapy derived from your own biology to support tissue repair, collagen remodelling and long-term skin regeneration.
Regeneration Begins Within
Factor4® is an advanced autologous treatment developed from a small sample of your own blood. By concentrating naturally occurring growth factors, treatment supports the biological processes responsible for tissue repair, collagen remodelling and progressive improvements in skin quality.
Rather than replacing conventional treatments, Factor4® is incorporated into personalised regenerative pathways where clinically appropriate to support healthier tissue, optimise recovery and improve long-term treatment outcomes.
Suitable applications may include age-related skin change, impaired skin quality, scar remodelling and selected hair restoration pathways following comprehensive clinical assessment.
The body's greatest regenerative technology has always been its own biology. Regenerative medicine shifts the focus from replacing tissue to supporting the body's natural capacity to repair it.
THE AESTHETE APPROACH
Regeneration begins with your own biology.
At Aesthete, Factor4® is incorporated within broader regenerative treatment pathways rather than performed as an isolated procedure.
Depending on clinical indication, treatment may be combined with SkinPen® Microneedling, fractional laser resurfacing, LED phototherapy and personalised skincare to optimise tissue repair, skin recovery and long-term treatment outcomes.
Every treatment pathway is prescribed according to your skin condition, regenerative capacity and long-term treatment objectives.
REGENERATIVE TREATMENT PATHWAYS
Skin Rejuvenation
Supporting healthier tissue function, collagen remodelling and progressive improvements in overall skin quality.
Scar Revision
Supporting collagen remodelling and tissue repair within personalised treatment pathways for acne and surgical scars.
Procedural Recovery
Frequently incorporated following laser resurfacing and clinical procedures to support tissue healing and recovery.
Hair Restoration
Supporting scalp health and personalised hair restoration pathways where clinically appropriate.
Factor4® FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Factor4® may be appropriate for individuals seeking a regenerative approach to improving skin quality, supporting collagen remodelling and enhancing tissue repair. Suitability is determined following consultation, clinical assessment and consideration of your individual concerns and treatment objectives.
Factor4® is prepared from a small sample of your own blood. The treatment concentrates naturally occurring growth factors and regenerative proteins, which are then reintroduced to support the body's normal healing processes, collagen production and tissue regeneration.
Factor4® may be incorporated into treatment pathways addressing age-related skin change, impaired skin quality, acne scarring, surgical scars, inflammation, delayed skin recovery and hair restoration. Recommendations are always personalised to your individual presentation.
Factor4® utilises an advanced preparation process that produces a highly concentrated autologous serum containing significantly higher concentrations of growth factors and regenerative proteins than conventional PRP preparations. This allows treatment to more effectively support tissue repair, collagen remodelling and regenerative skin health.
At Aestheté, Factor4® is rarely performed as a standalone treatment. Depending on clinical indication, it may be integrated alongside SkinPen® Microneedling, fractional laser resurfacing, LED phototherapy or personalised skincare as part of a broader regenerative treatment pathway.
Yes. Factor4® is an autologous treatment prepared from a small sample of your own blood, minimising the risk of allergic reaction whilst utilising your body's own natural regenerative biology.
Factor4® is typically performed as part of a structured regenerative treatment program rather than a single procedure. Each blood collection produces sufficient regenerative serum for two treatment sessions. Most patients are recommended a course of four to six treatments, with treatment intervals and ongoing maintenance tailored to their individual skin condition and long-term objectives.
Regenerative treatments work progressively. While some patients notice early improvements in skin quality, collagen remodelling and tissue regeneration continue over several months, with results developing gradually over time.
Downtime is generally minimal. Mild redness, swelling or tenderness may occur following treatment and usually resolves within several days. Recovery will vary depending on whether Factor4® has been combined with other clinical procedures.
Yes. Factor4® is frequently integrated within broader regenerative treatment pathways and may be combined with SkinPen® Microneedling, fractional laser resurfacing, LED phototherapy and other clinical treatments where appropriate to optimise treatment outcomes.
Factor4® is not recommended during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding. Your clinician will review your medical history and determine the most appropriate treatment options during consultation.
Your clinician will provide personalised aftercare instructions based on your treatment pathway. We generally recommend maintaining skin hydration, avoiding excessive heat and sun exposure during the initial recovery period, using daily broad-spectrum sun protection and following your prescribed skincare recommendations to support optimal healing and long-term results.
