PLATELET - RICH FIBRIN (PRF)
Explained
PRF injections have gained popularity for addressing various medical conditions and cosmetic concerns. Here's a comprehensive overview of PRF therapy:
​
WHAT IS PLATELET-RICH FIBRIN (PRF)?
PRF is a medical treatment that involves using a patient's own blood sample to concentrate platelets within the plasma. These platelets contain growth factors that can stimulate collagen production, cell reproduction, and tissue regeneration.
The process typically involves drawing blood from the patient and processing it in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets.
PRF is commonly used in various medical and dental procedures to promote healing and tissue regeneration.
​
​
WHAT IS A PRF INJECTION?
After extracting PRF from a patient's blood, it is carefully injected into the target area, often guided by ultrasound. The objective is to increase the concentration of growth factors in the treated area to expedite cell healing, skin rejuvenation, and even promote hair growth.
