FAQ

What are growth factors in skincare and what do they do?

Think of these naturally occurring proteins as messengers. They signal skin cells to begin the healing process, produce collagen and elastin, and multiply. This helps repair skin damage and combat signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture, and reduced elasticity. Growth factor serums harness this natural capability to replenish the skin, giving it a smoother-looking texture, even-looking tone, and improvement in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Is Plated Skin Science backed by clinical research?

Plated Skin Science is backed by more than 20 years of research by physician-scientists from the Mayo Clinic Van Cleve Cardiac Regenerative Medicine Program. More than 10 peer-reviewed publications support it, and it has undergone rigorous clinical testing, with data consistently showing healthier-looking skin and hair. Plated Skin Science is the #1 dermatologist-recommended exosome skincare brand. Their patented platelet-derived exosomes have received over 30 awards and recognition from industry and dermatology experts. 

Can I use the PLATED INTENSE Serum after a facial procedure?

Yes, you can use (plated)™ INTENSE Serum following a facial procedure, but we recommend starting with (plated)™ CALM Serum, which is the best growth factor serum for preparing skin for cosmetic treatments, supporting recovery, and optimizing treatment results. Formulated with a potent blend of platelet-derived exosomes and antioxidants, CALM helps soothe the skin and support its natural recovery.

How is Plated Skin Science different from other growth factor serums?

Many growth factor serums rely on one or two isolated growth factors or plant-, synthetic-, or animal-derived exosomes, which aren’t as effective at supporting skin regeneration. Plated Skin Science uses platelet-derived exosomes, which are produced by skin cells, to support the skin’s natural repair process and promote regeneration.

How long does it take to see results with Plated Skin Science?

Results can vary depending on your skin type individual skin care goals. Plated Skin Science's clinical trials showed that most participants reported a positive impact after six weeks of consistent serum use. For optimal results, follow the instructions for each product, located on the label and in the product listing.

About Plated Skin Science

Plated Skin Science is a clinically developed skincare brand created in collaboration with the experts at Mayo Clinic. This collection focuses on Activated Growth Factors (AGFs), an advanced regenerative skincare technology. As an authorized retailer, La Suite carries growth factor serums, including the TIME Magazine Best Inventions of 2024 award winner, PLATED Skin Science Intense Serum. Created by leaders in regenerative medicine, Plated Skin Science is dedicated to making clinical-level skin regeneration happen at home.

Activated Growth Factors (AGFs), The Science

Activated Growth Factors (AGFs) are proteins that naturally occur in the body and signal cells to grow, repair, and synthesize collagen, mimicking the body's wound-healing process. Injuries "activate" them, initiating the healing process. Exosomes (microscopic sacs) deliver AGFs.

Backed by platelet-derived exosome research at the Mayo Clinic Van Cleve Cardiac Regenerative Medicine Program, Renewosome™ technology (exosome skincare) stabilizes these exosomes into a topical form of regenerative skincare.

The Collection

The collection includes Plated Skin Science's best growth factor serums. (plated)™ INTENSE Serum, a skin renewal serum, aids repair and regeneration at the cellular level. The (plated)™ DAILY Serum addresses dullness and uneven tone; the (plated)™ EYE Serum supports firmness and hydration; the (plated)™CALM Serum is for pre- and post-treatment recovery; and the (plated)™ HAIR Serum visibly improves volume, thickness, and shine. (plated)™ BODY Serum brings regenerative skincare to the body with Renewosome™ technology to visibly smooth, firm, and brighten skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines, redness, and crepiness, from neck to toe.
