PRP/PRF
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) & Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a medical treatment that involves using a concentrated form of a patient's own blood to promote healing and tissue regeneration. Platelets play a crucial role in the body's natural healing process by releasing growth factors and other bioactive proteins.
By concentrating these platelets and growth factors in PRP, the therapy aims to:
- Accelerate healing
- Reduce inflammation
- Improve tissue regeneration
Meanwhile, Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a natural treatment utilized for skin rejuvenation, hair growth stimulation, and wound healing. By harnessing the body's own resources, PRF injectables offer a completely natural approach to enhancing skin vitality, fostering a youthful, radiant complexion.
What's the difference Between PRP & PRF?
Both PRP and PRF requires a blood draw. Following the blood draw, it will be centrifuge it, causing the separation of red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, and platelets. PRF notably boasts a higher concentration of growth factors.
The PRF treatment employs a slower spin speed, allowing some white blood cells and stem cells to remain within the platelet layer collected for treatment. Unlike PRP, PRF does not utilize a blood-thinning agent in the blood collection tube, ensuring the treatment is composed entirely of your blood/plasma.
PRF needs less blood from your body and offers enhanced efficacy over time.
Skin Rejuvenation
PRP contains growth factors that stimulate collagen production and promote tissue regeneration, resulting in improved skin texture, tone, and elasticity. This can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars, leading to a more youthful and radiant complexion.
Natural Treatment
Uses your own blood to naturally promote healing and renewal, minimizing the risk of irritation or allergic reactions.
Increased Skin Hydration
Enhances moisture retention and nutrient delivery, leaving skin softer, smoother, and more hydrated.
Reduced Pigmentation Issues
Helps fade dark spots, sun damage, and uneven tone, revealing a brighter, more even complexion over time.
Accelerated Wound Healing
Supports faster recovery and tissue repair after procedures like microneedling, laser resurfacing, or chemical peels.
How to Support Your Skin’s Natural Renewal
After your PRP or PRF treatment, your skin begins a natural regeneration process that continues to improve over time. With proper aftercare, you’ll support healing and enhance your collagen-boosting results.
Stay Clean & Hydrated
Keep the area moisturized and avoid active skincare for a day.
Sun Protection
Avoid direct sunlight and use gentle SPF once allowed.
Skip Makeup
Allow your skin to breathe for at least 24 hours.

What to Expect During your Visit with Us
Before Your appointment
Plan to come to your appointment with a clean face, and prepared to remain upright for 4-6 hours after treatment. Plan for no vigorous exercise 6 hours after your treatment, and avoid alcohol 1-2 days before and after to reduce the risk of bruising and swelling.
The Process
We will discuss your goals and treatment plan. Then we will start by drawing your blood, and spinning it in the centrifuge.
Recovery Time
Depending on the treatment of choice post treatment you might look puffy and mildly red due to the PRP, and usually this will last around 48hrs until you body absorbs the PRP.
The Results
The PRP will continue to work for several weeks after injections and you should start seeing results.
