Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)

what is Platelet-Rich Fibrin ...

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is an advanced regenerative treatment derived entirely from your own blood. It’s considered a next-generation version of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), designed to deliver longer-lasting and more gradual skin rejuvenation. Unlike PRP, PRF contains platelets, white blood cells, stem cells, and fibrin, and no anticoagulants or additives, making it a more natural, slower-release treatment.

PRF is most commonly used for:

  • Under-eye rejuvenation
  • Facial volume support and skin quality
  • Hair restoration
  • Scar and texture improvement

how does it work ...

Blood Draw: A small amount of your blood is taken (similar to a routine blood test).

Low-Speed Centrifugation: The blood is spun at a lower speed than PRP. This preserves more regenerative cells and creates a fibrin matrix.

Fibrin Scaffold Formation: The fibrin acts like a natural scaffold, slowly releasing growth factors over time. Growth factors are released for 7–14 days (PRP releases them rapidly, within hours).

Injection or Microneedling: PRF is injected into targeted areas (commonly under the eyes, cheeks, jawline, scalp) or applied with microneedling for overall skin rejuvenation.
