Rohrich Knose

In this special episode, Dr. Rod Rohrich joins Dr. Arthur Perry at The Aesthetic Society’s annual meeting in Boston, Massachusetts to discuss what’s new and hot in cosmetic surgery and how to find a true board certified plastic surgeon to give you the best possible outcome.

In this powerful Rohrich Knose Best podcast, I sat down with Dr. Samuel Lynch, one of the true pioneers behind bioengineered Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) and the groundbreaking research that led to multiple FDA clearances for its use in medicine. Dr. Lynch explains exactly what PDGF is, how it works at the cellular level, and why this growth factor has become one of the most important innovations in regenerative medicine. We also dive into the rigorous scientific pathway required to achieve FDA clearance, the remarkable safety profile demonstrated over decades of research, and the expanding potential of PDGF in tissue healing, regeneration, and aesthetic medicine. This episode separates science from speculation, highlighting why PDGF may represent one of the most important bioengineered breakthroughs in modern medicine.

Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) is rapidly becoming one of the most talked-about tools in regenerative aesthetics. But with the excitement comes an important question: is it truly safe? In this powerful Rohrich Knose Best conversation, regenerative medicine expert Dr. Charlie Hee breaks down the real science behind PDGF, separating hype from evidence. We dive into how PDGF stimulates healing, collagen production, and tissue regeneration—and directly address the concerns many physicians and patients have about possible cancer risks. Is PDGF the future of cosmetic medicine, or are we moving too fast without enough long-term data? This episode delivers the facts, the controversies, and the future of regenerative aesthetics.
