Human Growth Factors — What Are They & Why Should I Care?

"Human Growth Factors" (alternatively called "Human Oligopeptides") is a relatively new skin care technology from South Korea; where they discovered a method of creating human growth factors in the same manner that human insulin and growth hormones are made.

It's the new buzz phrase that you have or will start hearing about in high-price salons and upper-end aesthetic skin care lines.

Growth factors are found naturally in healthy skin. They can also rejuvenate sun-damaged and aging skin, enhance skin texture, reduce the appearance of age spots and blotchiness, and improve skin elasticity overall.

Benefits of Human Growth Factors:

  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Reduces the roughness of skin.
  • Improves the appearance of age spots and dyspigmentation.
  • Improves the firmness and texture of skin.
  • Improves the elasticity of skin.
