MATRIX PRO FAQs
Your Questions. Answered with Expertise.
Answers provided by Dr. Scott Gerrish, Medical Director of Gerrish MedEsthetics Scottsdale
What can I expect during a Matrix Pro treatment?
Your Matrix Pro session begins with an evaluation guided by The AGE Method™. Based on your skin’s condition, goals, and regenerative readiness, the appropriate applicator and settings are selected. During treatment, controlled radiofrequency energy is delivered to targeted areas. Sensation is typically described as warmth or light pressure. Topical numbing is used to support comfort, and session length varies depending on the treatment area and depth selected.
Is Matrix Pro suitable for darker skin tones?
Yes. Matrix Pro is designed for a wide range of skin tones. Its real-time impedance monitoring adjusts energy delivery to support safety and consistency across different skin types. Skin tone, reactivity, and treatment depth are always evaluated during consultation to ensure the approach is appropriate for your skin.
How long does a Matrix Pro treatment take?
Treatment time varies based on the area being addressed and the treatment objectives. Sessions typically range from 30 to 60 minutes. Exact timing is determined during your consultation as part of your personalized plan.
How many Matrix Pro treatments will I need?
Most patients benefit from a series of treatments, often spaced several weeks apart, to support progressive collagen and elastin stimulation. The number of sessions is determined using The AGE Method™, based on skin condition, goals, and regenerative response.
What makes Matrix Pro at Gerrish MedEsthetics different?
Matrix Pro is not applied as a preset protocol. At Gerrish MedEsthetics, each treatment is customized using Dr. Gerrish’s AGE Proprietary Methods™, which guide energy selection, depth, and sequencing. This ensures treatments are mapped, timed, and integrated within a broader regenerative strategy rather than applied as a one-size-fits-all solution.
Are there side effects with Matrix Pro?
Temporary redness, swelling, or sensitivity may occur and typically resolve within 24–48 hours. During consultation, your medical history and skin condition are reviewed to ensure Matrix Pro aligns with your goals and health profile.
When will I see results from Matrix Pro?
Some patients notice early improvements within days. Collagen remodeling continues over several months, with results evolving gradually as the skin regenerates. Outcomes vary depending on treatment depth, frequency, and individual skin response.
Is Matrix Pro painful?
Most patients report mild to moderate discomfort, depending on treatment depth. Topical numbing is used to support comfort, and settings are adjusted based on tolerance and treatment goals.
What is the downtime after a Matrix Pro treatment?
Downtime is typically minimal. Mild redness or swelling may be present for one to two days. Post-treatment care instructions are provided to support recovery and skin integrity.
Can Matrix Pro be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Matrix Pro may be sequenced with other AGE Technologies™, injectables, or skincare when clinically appropriate. All combinations are planned using The AGE Method™ to ensure proper timing, safety, and long-term regenerative support.
