WHY PRP/PRF?

---

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is produced from your blood. It is a concentration of platelets, which circulate through your blood and are critical for blood clotting. Platelets and the liquid plasma portion of the blood contain many factors that are essential for cell recruitment, multiplication, and specialization.

PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) is a portion of blood that contains platelets with healing and growth factors. PRF is spun in a centrifuge at low G-force to recover a greater number of platelets than past treatment options. More platelets allow for quicker tissue regeneration and growth and a great treatment outcome.

PRF is one of the most natural ways to induce collagen. You can use PRF in either an injection or with microneedling. Platelet-rich fibrin is second-generation PRP platelets, and leukocytes are present to accelerate the healing process of soft and hard tissue.

Platelet-rich plasma injections and PRF are both incredible regenerative substances derived from a patient’s own blood. The main difference between these substances is in their creation process.

In order to separate the blood into layers, it needs to be centrifuged. White blood cells and stem cells, which are heavier concentrated platelets, tend to accumulate near the bottom of the test tube, whereas platelets, which are lighter, tend to accumulate at their highest concentration at the top.

To make PRF, the blood is spun at a slower speed than it would be for platelet-rich plasma therapy, leaving the blood layers more intact. Lower spin speeds put less stress on the red blood cells, which preserves the treated platelet layer’s white blood cell and stem cell populations.

As a result, more healing agents are present in PRF than in PRP. This improves its ability to create effective results  

Results will be visible three to four months after the recommended treatments.

For undereye injections, three to four sessions are required. For hair restoration, three to six sessions will be needed.

Because the treatment uses a patient’s own tissues, PRP/PRF injections are safe and can be administered alone or used in conjunction with other procedures.

The best candidates for PRP and PRF are clients who want to improve their overall skin health. PRP injections and PRF are excellent options for those who want to boost their skin health from within.

Since PRP and PRF utilize the patient own body’s platelets, they may not be effective for people with certain blood-related medical conditions.

Individuals with active skin infections should fully treat the skin condition before considering PRP/PRF.
