Question 1

How long does collagen rebuilding take?

Accepted Answer

Collagen remodels over 3–6 months after each stimulating treatment. Most patients notice firmness and tone in 6–8 weeks and see the full result of a series at 12–16 weeks.

Question 2

Is this surgery-free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The PBCM Collagen Rebuild Protocol is non-surgical. It combines microneedling, PRP, facial laser, professional skincare, and internal support — no incisions and minimal downtime.

Question 3

Who is the ideal candidate?

Accepted Answer

Adults noticing skin laxity after weight loss, fine lines, dull texture, or the collagen decline that begins in the mid-30s. Dr. Frisch confirms candidacy at your consultation.

Question 4

How is this different from a single treatment?

Accepted Answer

One treatment stimulates one pathway. Our protocol sequences microneedling (mechanical), PRP (growth factors), facial laser (thermal), and ZO Skin Health (topical) so pathways compound instead of competing.

Question 5

Does hormone health affect collagen?

Accepted Answer

Meaningfully. Thyroid, estrogen, and cortisol all influence collagen synthesis. As an endocrinologist-led practice, we screen for the internal drivers most clinics never look at.

Question 6

Is there downtime?

Accepted Answer

Most sessions have 24–72 hours of pinkness or mild swelling. Facial laser can have slightly more depending on settings. We build a schedule around your calendar.

Question 7

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing is set at consultation based on your plan — no pre-paid packages. Financing is available, and the payment calculator on our memberships page can estimate a monthly figure.

Question 8

How do I start?

Accepted Answer

Book a consultation with Dr. Frisch or take the 2-minute Skin Quiz for a physician-matched starting point.
