With over 30 years of professional skin expertise, every treatment at JustBe Aesthetics is individually tailored to your skin, your concerns and your desired results.
What is AQ Growth Factor Therapy?
Growth factors are naturally occurring proteins that act as important signalling messengers within the skin. They are involved in cellular communication and processes associated with skin repair, renewal, collagen and elastin production.
AQ Skin Solutions has developed a patented growth factor technology designed to produce and combine selected human growth factors for use in professional skincare and aesthetic treatments.
AQ Growth Factor Therapy uses this technology together with a specialised dermal stamping technique. The controlled stamping creates tiny pathways in the skin, allowing the AQ Recovery Serum to be introduced where it can interact with the skin’s natural repair and renewal processes.
The result is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment focused not simply on making the skin look better temporarily, but on supporting overall skin quality and regeneration.
How does AQ Growth Factor Therapy work?
The treatment combines two important elements: growth factor technology and controlled dermal stamping.First, the skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepared for treatment. AQ Recovery Serum is then applied while a specialised dermal stamp is used across the treatment area. The stamping technique creates controlled microchannels within the skin. These pathways allow the growth factor serum to be delivered more effectively into the skin while the controlled stimulation also activates the skin’s natural repair response.
Growth factors act as signalling proteins within the skin and are involved in processes such as cellular communication, skin repair and the production of collagen and elastin.
This combination makes AQ Growth Factor Therapy a regenerative approach to skin rejuvenation, designed to support the skin from within rather than simply exfoliating or hydrating the surface.
What can AQ Growth Factor Therapy help with?
AQ Growth Factor Therapy can be used to improve the appearance and overall quality of skin affected by ageing, environmental stress and other common skin concerns.
It may help improve the appearance of:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Loss of firmness and elasticity
- Uneven skin texture
- Enlarged-looking pores
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Uneven skin tone
- Pigmentation
- Sun-damaged-looking skin
- Acne-prone or previously congested skin
- The appearance of acne scarring
- Skin that appears thin, depleted or stressed
- Overall skin radiance and vitality
- The treatment is particularly appealing to clients who want to improve the quality of their skin rather than simply disguise signs of ageing.
Who is AQ Growth Factor Therapy for?
AQ Growth Factor Therapy can be suitable for a wide range of skin types and ages.
It is particularly suited to clients who are beginning to notice changes in skin texture, firmness, radiance or elasticity, as well as those wanting a more advanced approach to skin rejuvenation.
It can also be an excellent option for clients who want to support their skin following other aesthetic treatments or who are looking for a treatment that focuses on skin regeneration and long-term skin quality.
Your skin will always be assessed before treatment to determine whether AQ Growth Factor Therapy is appropriate for you and whether it should be performed alone or combined with another treatment.
What happens during an AQ Growth Factor Treatment?
Your treatment begins with a consultation and thorough preparation of the skin.
The skin is cleansed and prepared before AQ Recovery Serum is applied. A specialised dermal stamp is then used in a controlled pattern over the treatment area.
The stamping process creates tiny microchannels in the skin, allowing the growth factor serum to be introduced into the skin while simultaneously stimulating the skin’s natural repair response.
The serum is reapplied throughout the treatment to ensure the skin remains adequately conditioned.
Treatment time will depend on the area being treated and your personalised treatment plan.
Immediately afterwards, the skin may appear mildly pink or flushed. Some clients experience a feeling of warmth or sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn. This generally settles relatively quickly, although individual recovery varies.
You will be given personalised aftercare advice to help protect and support your skin following treatment.
What results can you expect from AQ Growth Factor Therapy?
AQ Growth Factor Therapy is designed to produce progressive improvements in skin quality rather than an artificial or over-treated appearance.
As the skin goes through its natural renewal and repair processes, you may notice improvements in:
Skin brightness: The complexion can appear fresher, more radiant and healthier-looking.
Skin texture: The skin can feel smoother and more refined.
Firmness: Supporting the skin’s regenerative processes can help improve the appearance of firmness and elasticity.
Fine lines: The appearance of fine lines and early signs of ageing may become softer as overall skin quality improves.
Overall skin quality: Skin can look healthier, more even and more resilient.
Clinical research investigating growth factor-induced therapy using AQ Recovery Serum found improvements in overall appearance, brightness, skin texture and tightness following treatment. Individual results will vary depending on your skin, age, concerns and treatment plan. To read the Clinical Research on AQ Growth Factor Induced Therapy (CLICK HERE)
How many AQ Growth Factor treatments will I need?
Your recommended treatment plan will depend on your skin and the results you want to achieve.
For clients wanting more significant skin rejuvenation, a course of treatments may be recommended rather than relying on a single treatment.
The skin continues to undergo its natural renewal processes after treatment, so improvements can develop progressively over time.
During your consultation, we will assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate treatment frequency and combination for your individual needs.
AQ Growth Factor Therapy and Dermapen 4
AQ Growth Factor Therapy can also be incorporated into an advanced skin rejuvenation programme alongside other professional treatments.
At JustBe Aesthetics, Dermapen 4 microneedling is another advanced treatment used to stimulate skin renewal and improve concerns such as pigmentation, acne scarring, fine lines and overall skin texture.
Depending on your skin and treatment goals, AQ Growth Factor Therapy and Dermapen 4 may form part of a personalised treatment programme.
The two treatments work in different ways, so your treatment plan will always be based on your individual skin rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.
Why choose JustBe Aesthetics for AQ Growth Factor Therapy?
Choosing an advanced skin treatment is about more than the technology itself. The way your skin is assessed, treated and managed is equally important.

Is AQ Growth Factor Therapy the same as microneedling?
No. Although both treatments use controlled skin stimulation, AQ Growth Factor Therapy specifically incorporates AQ growth factor technology and a dermal stamping technique to introduce the growth factor serum into the skin.
Dermapen 4 is a microneedling treatment that uses a specialised device to create controlled microchannels and stimulate the skin’s natural collagen and renewal processes.
Your skin therapist can advise which treatment, or combination of treatments, is most appropriate for your concerns.
Is there downtime after AQ Growth Factor Therapy?
AQ Growth Factor Therapy is designed to be a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment with relatively little downtime.
Immediately after treatment, the skin may appear pink or flushed and can feel warm or sensitive. The visible response varies from person to person and depends on the treatment area and individual skin.
You will receive specific aftercare instructions following your treatment to help your skin recover and to protect your results.
