About AQ Skin Solutions
Award- winning cosmeceutical brand powered by patented growth factor technology to support skin rejuvenation & hair restoration.
About Growth Factors
AQ's GF technology refers to an advanced, innovative method of producing human growth factors and employing them in topical cosmeceuticals. Growth factors (GFs) are a group of specialized, fragile proteins that act as chemical messengers between many cell types. Critical for the activation of cellular functions, GFs are found naturally in the human body, specifically fibroblast cells. Selective growth factors play a role in increasing cell production, cell division, blood vessel production and collagen and elastin production.
Combining authentic research with advanced clinical experience, AQ employs a proprietary blend of the appropriate combination and concentration of applicable GFs in Growth Factor Induced Therapy (GFIT).

Medical research has found that Growth Factors can speed and improve skintightening, rebuilding skinhealth and skin reconstruction.
In addition when applied to areas of the human body damaged in surgery, burns, wounds or accidents, Growth Factors can speed up skin healing.
Research Insights
The mechanism behind the benefits is facilitation of changes at the cellular level to revert damaged cells to a younger state, healing the damaged skin in the process. GF-technology is now being shown to improve the appearance of aging and sun-damaged skin and to help restore normal hair growth.
The decrease in growth factor production, along with damage caused by UV light, pollution, and toxins, cause the skin to wrinkle, lose elasticity and pigment.
Consequences of environmental exposure in addition to the normal processes of aging result in excessive free radical damage and the breakdown of collagen and elastin. This type of damage eventually impairs growth factor function, reducing the body's ability to repair oxidative damage and prompting the need for supplementation.
AQ cosmeceutical serums contain conditioned media known to retain the highest quality of specific growth factors, cytokines and interleukins that accelerate the regenerative process. Using advanced cell sorting technology, AQ Skin Solutions GF serums were formulated utilizing the screened, immortalized fibroblast cell lines protected by 4 Patents within the U.S., E.U., Japan, and Korea (US 8,518,879, US 8,877,494, US 9,119,974), EU (2680865), Japan (5981947), and Korea (10-2013-7026105).

About Ahmed Alqahtani, Ph.D
Ahmed Alqahtani, Ph.D, was inspired to start AQ Skin Solutions by his extensive work in medical applications of Growth Factors (GF) for healing wounded tissue and creating artificial skin grafts. He applied his knowledge and experience in growth factor biotechnology to develop a process for producing the highest quality GF media available, containing only those growth factors that have been identified as the most effective for improving the appearance of skin and hair, in the exact quantities and combinations needed for fast, unprecedented results. This formulation is also the most stable for growth factor products on the market. Dr. Alqahtani's technology is covered by multiple patents throughout the world including the USA ( US 8,518,879, US 8,877,494, US 9,119,974), EU (2680865), Japan (5981947), and Korea (10-2013-7026105).
