Platelet Rich Fibrin For Smoother, Younger Looking Skin

Platelet Rich Fibrin For Smoother, Younger Looking Skin

September 30 2022
Beauty experts all around the world agree that the key to being beautiful is having healthy and vibrant skin. Your skin is your largest body organ, so it makes sense to take great care of it. If you’re like most people you’ve spent many hours and a large sum of money on skincare products without achieving the results you’d like to see. But now there is an all-natural treatment available to fight against the signs of aging and give you the beautiful skin you desire. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a revolutionary treatment that uses fibrin, platelets, stem cells, and growth factors from your own blood to activate your body’s own healing systems 

 

Even More Effective Than PRP

If you’re familiar with anti-aging treatments at all you’ve probably heard of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments.PRF is an updated form of PRP that focuses on fibrin which is a protein in the blood that aids in blood clotting and promotes healing. PRF is the more effective of the two treatments because it contains more stem cells and releases more concentrated growth factors much longer than PRP. It’s the growth factors and stem cells that are responsible for increasing the production of collagen and elastin to rejuvenate your skin, so the longer those growth factors are released the better.

 

How Treatments Are Performed

When you arrive for a PRF treatment our physician will draw some of your blood and place it into tubes. These tubes will then be placed into a centrifuge for five minutes, but instead of spinning them at high speeds like is done for PRP treatments, a low G-force is used to separate the blood resulting in a higher concentration of antiaging constituents in the final product. The tubes are then taken out of the centrifuge and prepared for your treatment. The treatment areas are cleaned and topical numbing is applied to ensure comfort. The extracted PRF is then injected into the treatment areas. Common areas of treatment are the forehead, jowls, and around the eyes. Platelet-rich fibrin can even be used to replace the growth factor serum used in microneedling treatments. PRF is an excellent treatment for you if you would like the effects of fillers without injecting unnatural substances into your body.

 

Benefits of Platelet Rich Fibrin Treatments

Platelet-rich fibrin treatments are all-natural, unlike many beauty treatments on the market today. PRF can address many different skin concerns all in one treatment. Here are some of the things PRF treatment can do for you.
