Regenerative Aesthetics in Fort Worth and Keller, TX
What is Regenerative Aesthetics?
In the field of aesthetics, traditional system-based medicine is being replaced by one that focuses on the regeneration of soft tissue lost or damaging due to aging and environmental processes. By using different "Bio-Cues", we can now improve the microenvironment of local tissue through cell signaling returning the cells to a more youthful functioning state.
What are Senescent or Zombie Cells?
Senescent tissue refers to cells that have reached a state of permanent cell cycle arrest, meaning they are no longer able to divide or grow. They may also be referred to as Zombie Cells, and they can also accumulate over time and contribute to aging and age-related diseases.
In the context of aging, senescent cells can:
* Lose their normal function
* Produce pro-inflammatory factors
* Disrupt tissue homeostasis
In regenerative medicine, understanding and addressing senescent tissue is crucial for developing effective treatments to restore tissue function and promote healthy aging.
Then Meets Now
Aesthetic medicine has rapidly evolved, with regenerative aesthetics emerging as a cutting-edge movement. The FDA approval of Botox in 2002 marked a pivotal moment, often referred to as the "birth of aesthetic medicine" as we know it today.
What's fascinating is that early procedures like Botox, fillers, and laser treatments have long been shown to have biostimulatory effects – stimulating the body's natural processes to improve skin health and appearance.
Today, we're taking this to the next level, harnessing regenerative properties from both internal and external approaches. This new frontier is unlocking unprecedented potential for natural, long-lasting results.
Regenerative Aesthetic Phrases
Exosomes
Exosomes are messages released by cells that contain signals, proteins, and genetic material. They play a role in cell communication, helping cells talk to each other and influencing various biological processes such as :
* Stimulate tissue repair and regeneration
* Promote collagen production
* Enhance skin health and appearance
Growth Factors
Growth factors are signaling proteins released by exosomes that help cells communicate with each other, promoting various biological processes such as
* Stimulate collagen production to improve skin texture and reduce fine lines
* Enhance tissue repair and regeneration
* Promote hair growth
* Support skin rejuvenation
Polynucleotides (PN) and Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN)
PN and PDRN function as biostimulators, targeting fibroblasts (the cells that produce collagen and elastin) to reactivate the skin's natural regeneration processes such as:
* Cell regeneration and repair
* Stimulation of collagen and elastin
* Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects
* Deep hydration
Platelet Derived Growth Factors (PDGF)
PDGF are proteins found in platelets that help stimulate:
* Stimulate collagen production and skin rejuvenation
* Improve skin texture and tone
* Enhance wound healing
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Fibrin (PRF)
PRP and PRF are both derived from your own blood and used:
* Stimulate collagen production
* Cell growth
* Tissue repair
* Promotes natural healing and rejuvenation
Stem Cells
Stem cells are cells that can differentiate into various cell types, potentially helping to:
* Stimulate collagen production
* Improve skin texture and tone
* Enhance facial volume and contours
* Promote hair growth
Support tissue repair and regeneration
Biostimulators
Biostimulators are substances or treatments that stimulate the body's natural processes to produce collagen, elastin, and other essential proteins, leading to improved skin texture, tone, and appearance.
Epigenetic Testing
Epigenetic testing examines how environmental factors and lifestyle choices affect gene expression without altering the DNA sequence itself. Epigenetics involves chemical modifications to DNA or histone proteins, influencing how genes are turned on or off.
In the context of health and aesthetics, epigenetic testing can provide insights into:
* Aging processes
* Skin health
* Susceptibility to certain diseases
* Response to environmental factors (e.g., UV exposure)
Epigenetic testing may help identify potential areas for intervention, such as lifestyle changes or targeted treatments, to promote healthy aging and skin health.
