HOW IS PRF DIFFERENT THAN PRP?

PRF differs from PRP in its preparation method and composition. PRF contains a higher concentration of platelets and a fibrin matrix, which can potentially lead to a more sustained release of growth factors compared to PRP.

WHAT CONDITIONS CAN PRF TREAT?

PRF is commonly used in aesthetic treatments to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, enhance skin firmness, and promote overall skin rejuvenation. It can also be utilized in some dental and orthopedic procedures for its regenerative properties.

Since PRF is derived from the patient's blood, it's generally considered safe with minimal risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects. However, as with any medical procedure, there may be specific considerations or rare risks that your practitioner will discuss with you.

HOW LONG DO PRF TREATMENT RESULTS LAST?

Results from PRF treatments can vary based on individual factors, the number of treatments received, and the treatment area at hand. Typically, patients will need 3 treatments, 4-6 weeks apart and a booster treatment at 4-6 months for best results. These results may last over 1 year with many people needing 1 treatment a year for maintenance.

HOW MANY SESSIONS OF PRF ARE NEEDED?

The number of sessions required can vary depending on the individual's goals, the treated area, and the desired outcome. Your practitioner will advise on the recommended number of sessions based on your specific needs. Typically, patients will need 3 treatments, 4-6 weeks apart and a booster treatment at 4-6 months for best results.

HOW MANY SESSIONS OF PRF ARE NEEDED?

The number of sessions required can vary depending on the individual's goals, the treated area, and the desired outcome. Your practitioner will advise on the recommended number of sessions based on your specific needs. Typically, patients will need 2 treatments, 3 months apart for best results.

ARE PRF INJECTIONS PAINFUL?

Discomfort during PRF treatments is typically minimal. Topical numbing agents may be applied to ensure comfort during the procedure.

WHAT IS PRF?

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a revolutionary treatment derived from your blood's own platelets and fibrin. Through a simple and safe process, a small amount of blood is drawn from you, and then specially processed to concentrate your platelets and growth factors. These components are essential in tissue repair and regeneration, stimulating collagen production and enhancing skin rejuvenation. PRF promotes natural skin healing and regeneration without the use of synthetic materials. It's a versatile treatment known for its ability to:

Diminish fine lines and wrinkles
Improve skin texture and tone
Reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks
Enhance overall skin quality and firmness

TAKE IT UP A NOTCH

WITH PRF BIOGEL

PRF Biogel takes the benefits of PRF a step further by combining the concentrated platelets and fibrin with a biocompatible gel. This gel form provides a more convenient application, allowing for targeted delivery and better absorption of the growth factors into the skin. It also creates a more immediate volumizing effect than liquid PRF alone.
