I would actually love to hear more about tissue growth factors. I am pretty simplistic with my patients. After the aquaphor and vinegar soaks for the first 4-5 days, then they go back to a physical sunblock.

We do use Biafine for patients who have had skin burns so I don't know why we wouldn't apply it to post ablative.

At 1 month I start them on a retinoid at night and Vitamin C serum in the morning. We are part of a hospital, so we don't sell products, however, I do like the Skinceuticals Vitamin C, so I send them to a clinic that has it or online.

But I haven't reviewed enough info on growth factors to justify the cost to patients, however, I have heard wonderful anecdotal information from fellow physicians.
