Dermal Renewal
A physician-guided regenerative skin program that works at the dermal level — restoring structural integrity, accelerating cellular renewal, and delivering results that reflect the investment you've made in every other aspect of your health.
Skin Vitality at Valere is a physician-guided regenerative program that addresses skin at the structural level — not the surface. The combination of exosome therapy, MSC-derived biologics, and platelet-rich plasma targets the dermal environment directly, signaling the biological processes responsible for collagen production, tissue repair, and cellular renewal. The clinical evidence on exosome-based dermal regeneration is reviewed at PubMed.
Delivery is through microneedling — creating precise microchannels in the skin that allow biologic agents to reach the dermal layer where they have clinical impact — combined with targeted biologic application to specific areas of concern. The result is a program that works with your skin's own renewal mechanisms rather than masking what's changed.
Every program is preceded by a clinical evaluation. Candidacy, contraindications, and sequencing are determined by your physician before any treatment is administered. To understand how programs are structured from assessment through long-term care, see How It Works.
Exosome Therapy
Cell-signaling molecules derived from stem cells, delivered topically or into the dermal layer. Exosomes communicate directly with skin cells — stimulating repair, collagen synthesis, and the biological processes that restore structural integrity over time.
MSC-Derived Biologics
Mesenchymal stem cell-derived products that support skin repair at the cellular level — accelerating the body's natural regenerative response and improving the quality of dermal tissue over the course of the program.
Platelet-Rich Plasma
Concentrated growth factors drawn from your own blood, reintroduced to the dermal environment to amplify healing, accelerate cellular turnover, and support the regenerative work of the biologic agents alongside them.
Microneedling with Biologics
Controlled microchannel creation that allows biologic agents to penetrate to the dermal layer — the depth at which structural change occurs. Topical application alone cannot reach this level. Microneedling is what makes the biologics clinically effective.
Understanding Stem Cells & Exosomes in Skin Care
The biologics used in this program — exosomes and MSC-derived preparations — are signaling molecules that instruct the skin's own repair cells to activate, produce collagen, and restore dermal integrity at the structural level. This is not cosmetic. It is cellular. The biologics are sourced from FDA-registered laboratories and administered under physician supervision.
A clarification most Valerians need: the FDA approves the laboratories that manufacture these biologics — not the specific clinical protocols physicians use them in. That is standard across medicine, and it is why the framing of stem cell therapy as "unapproved" is misleading. What matters is that the biologics come from a compliant, FDA-registered source and are used under physician oversight. At Valere, that is the only standard that exists.

See who we help to understand if you're the right fit.
Fine lines, loss of firmness, and changes in skin texture that reflect a decline in collagen and dermal integrity — not surface dryness. These respond to regenerative intervention at the dermal level, not topical treatment.
Acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone that reflect disruption to the dermal repair process. Regenerative biologics address the underlying tissue environment — supporting the conditions under which the skin can correct itself.
For Valerians who don't have a specific condition to address — but whose skin no longer reflects the standard they hold everywhere else. A preventive and restorative program that keeps the dermal environment performing at its best.
Adults seeking regenerative aesthetic results without surgical intervention
Those with structural skin changes — scarring, laxity, pigmentation — unresponsive to topical regimens
Valerians who want to maintain skin quality as part of a broader longevity program
Active skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area
Recent use of oral retinoids — a clearance period is required before treatment
Candidacy is always confirmed at assessment — your physician determines fit before any program begins
Your physician evaluates your skin — its current condition, your history, any contraindications, and what your goals are. The program is only designed after the clinical picture is complete.
The skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepared before any biologics are applied. A topical anesthetic ensures comfort throughout. The environment is private, unhurried, and controlled — every detail of the setup supports the precision of what follows.
Microneedling creates precise microchannels across the treatment area, allowing biologic agents — exosomes, MSC-derived products, PRP — to reach the dermal layer. Targeted biologic application follows in areas of specific concern. The procedure typically takes 45–90 minutes.
Mild redness and sensitivity for 24–72 hours is normal and expected. Initial improvement is visible within weeks — the full biological response continues to develop over 3–6 months as the dermal environment rebuilds.
"Results develop progressively — because regeneration is a biological process, not an instant correction."
Individual outcomes vary based on skin condition, age, and program adherence. Your physician will outline realistic expectations specific to your biology during the assessment.
The Skin Vitality program at Valere is a clinical program — designed, administered, and monitored by a physician. The biologics are medical-grade. The delivery is precise. The standard is the same as every other offering we provide.
For Valerians who have explored aesthetic options elsewhere and found them surface-level — this is the difference. Dermal-level intervention, physician-guided from start to finish, as part of a program built around the standard you hold for your health overall. Skin health is directly connected to hormonal and metabolic health — for Valerians addressing both, see Hormonal Health & Vitality.
Exosomes, MSC-derived products, and PRP sourced and handled to clinical standards — not spa-grade alternatives.
Evaluated, designed, and monitored by your physician — not delegated to an aesthetician or technician.
Skin health is connected to hormonal balance, metabolic function, and systemic inflammation. At Valere, it's addressed as part of the whole — not in isolation.
By appointment only. Private setting. The same discretion applied to every offering at Valere.
The biologics are medical-grade. The delivery is precise — microneedling to the correct dermal depth, followed by targeted biologic application. It is designed and overseen by a physician, not administered by an aesthetician. And it sits within a broader health program rather than being offered as a standalone cosmetic service. The clinical standard is the same as every other offering at Valere. Research on exosome-based dermal regeneration is summarized at PubMed.
Most programs involve an initial series of 2–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, followed by a maintenance schedule determined by how your skin responds. Your physician will outline your specific program after the clinical evaluation. The biological response continues to develop for 3–6 months after each session — the full picture only becomes clear over time.
Mild redness and sensitivity for 24–72 hours is expected and is a normal part of the biological response. Most Valerians return to their regular schedule the following day with appropriate sun protection. You will receive specific post-procedure guidance — including what to apply, what to avoid, and what to expect during the healing window.
Initial improvement in skin texture and tone is often visible within 2–4 weeks. The deeper biological response — collagen remodeling, structural repair, dermal renewal — continues to develop over 3–6 months. Regeneration is not instant. It is progressive, and what you see at three months is meaningfully different from what you see at six weeks. Your physician will track your progress throughout. For Valerians who want to address skin health alongside systemic vitality, Hormonal Health & Vitality directly affects skin quality and is often addressed within the same program.
Your assessment is where the program begins — a private, clinical evaluation built around your skin, your goals, and the standard you hold.
