    It's Magic

    My sport has me in the sun a lot (yes, I am militant about sunscreen, hat wearing, etc.) but damage is still done and I'm in my 50s, so was part of the whole tanning era in the 80s. I was using Plated for a while, ran out and lapsed in refilling. Whelp, started to get a sunspot on my cheek. As soon as I noticed it, I re-ordered Plated serum and in just a couple of weeks of consistent, daily use, sunspot is gone and my skin looks so much better. At my age, to look in the mirror and really notice a difference is amazing.

    I love this serum

    I feel like I’m feeding my skin what it needs. I’m 64 years old and in a season of life where my skin needs more. I love this product. I appreciate that I can buy refills too, instead of getting a new pump every time.

    Intense Serum for Intense results

    I started this prior to and then a few days after a Fotona 4D skin tightening with a Cool Peel. The results have been great. The Intense helped prime my skin and I had just minimal peeling and could go out by the second day. I then went back to the intense about 5 days after the protocol and it helped get rid of any residual redness I experienced. The results were excellent and it feels very good going on my skin. I have had no bad reactions or problems using it. I have ordered the refill so I can continue to see results.

INTENSE Serum

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ( plated ) INTENSE Serum?

INTENSE Serum is our most concentrated anti-aging exosome serum, powered by proprietary Renewosome® technology. It's a medical-grade formula designed for the most challenging skin concerns: fine lines, wrinkles, redness, brown spots, and uneven tone and texture. Apply once daily.

What does ( plated ) INTENSE Serum do?

INTENSE Serum helps improve the appearance of the most challenging signs of aging: fine lines, wrinkles, redness, brown spots, and uneven tone and texture.

Clinically, it's been shown to deliver 2x younger-looking skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and dark spots, and boost luminosity and glow. Most people see visible results within 6 weeks, with a transformation that builds over time.

Who is ( plated ) INTENSE Serum for?

INTENSE Serum is for anyone looking to target more advanced or stubborn signs of aging with our most concentrated formula. It's suitable for all skin types and is an especially strong fit when fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots, or uneven tone and texture are your top concerns. As with all ( plated ) serums, your provider can help confirm it's the right match for your skin.

How often should I apply ( plated ) INTENSE Serum?

Once or twice daily, begin your skincare routine with a gentle cleanser. Then, if desired, sweep a ( plated ) pad across your face and neck. Do not rinse. Follow immediately with your ( plated ) serum. Allow 5 minutes before layering other products. With consistent use, results amplify over time. With millions of exosomes per pump, one pump per application is all you need.

Do I use ( plated ) INTENSE and DAILY Serum at the same time?

Depending on your individual skin goals and your aesthetic provider's guidance, INTENSE Serum and DAILY Serum can be used as part of the same anti-aging regimen. Start your morning with DAILY Serum, drenching skin in hydration while supporting your barrier and bringing out a healthy, lit-from-within glow. At night, switch to INTENSE Serum, working in sync with your skin's natural renewal cycle to visibly smooth, refine, and restore while you sleep.

Can you use the ( plated ) INTENSE Serum with other products like retinol or vitamin C?

Yes! In fact, according to a top dermatologist-researcher, ( plated ) may increase the efficiency of your other favorite skincare ingredients like vitamin C and retinol.

For best results, always apply ( plated ) serums first to clean, product-free skin. And let it sit for 5 minutes before applying other products. The platelet-derived exosomes in our Renewosome® technology work most effectively when they have direct access to your skin. Once you've waited, feel free to layer on any other products, such as ( plated ) EYE Serum, retinol, retinoid, vitamin C, moisturizer, sunscreen, etc.

Does ( plated ) INTENSE Serum cause sun sensitivity?

No. Our INTENSE Serum will not cause sun sensitivity. You can apply it in the morning or at night as you wish. In fact, the platelet-derived exosomes that power Renewosome® technology have been shown to help deliver advanced environmental protection against oxidative damage from UVA/UVB rays, pollution, and more. Of course, we still recommend you use your favorite daily SPF.

After a skin procedure such as laser treatment, microneedling, or chemical peel, is it best to transition to ( plated ) INTENSE Serum after using ( plated ) CALM Serum?

You may choose to stick to CALM Serum or transition to INTENSE Serum (maximum exosome concentration for mature or stressed skin) or DAILY Serum (renewing support for a youthful glow). Your provider can help you select the best choice for your skin goals.

What makes ( plated ) INTENSE Serum worth the investment?

( plated ) Skin Science is the #1 dermatologist-recommended exosome brand for a reason: the science is backed by 10+ gold-standard clinical studies that show one thing: platelet-derived exosomes lead to visible transformation. As our most advanced exosome serum, INTENSE Serum delivers the most cutting-edge exosome science and technology to your skincare routine.

Developed by Mayo Clinic physician-scientists over 20+ years, ( plated ) serums represent a true breakthrough for aging skin. They harness the power of platelet-derived exosomes and their remarkable cargo to visibly renew the skin while remaining soothing and gentle. So many serums are only as good as the next cleanse.

Don't forget, a little serum (just one pump) goes a long way. With millions of exosomes per pump, one pump per application is all you need. One bottle of INTENSE Serum contains approximately 64 pumps. That's over two months of use. An investment, for sure. Clinical studies show a compounding effect; the longer you use INTENSE Serum, the more your results build. Think of it like a long-term investment for your skin, where every application adds up over time.

An investment for sure, but worth it? Definitely! You'll see these results for years to come.
