Growth Elixir
Platelets are tiny cells present in the blood. These platelets have growth factors and thus, help in stimulating collagen production. In growth elixir treatment patients’ own platelets are injected into the target area. Growth elixir treatment is used in several areas of medical science, such as cardiac surgery, dentistry, orthopaedics, wound care, sports medicine, neurosurgery, general surgery and aesthetics.
At Skinzest, we offer growth elixir treatment for skin rejuvenation, hair loss treatment and anti-ageing treatment.
WHAT IS Growth Elixir TREATMENT?
- In the process of the treatment blood of the patient is collected in a vial.

- This Growth Elixiris then injected into, and around, the area that needs to be treated.
- Some swelling is noticed in that area after the fluid is injected.
- Within three weeks improvements in skin tone and texture can be noticed. But the collagen regeneration takes a few months. The injected platelets will release the growth factors and pre-stem cells which assist in developing more collagen.
- The procedure only takes 30 – 45 minutes.
