What are PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin)?
PRP and PRF are natural growth factors found in your own blood. They are rich in platelets, WBC, and fibrin in the case of PRF. These substances stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and new skin cells. Both treatments are effective in treating fine lines, and wrinkles and improving tone and texture, and fading dark spots and other signs of aging.
They are the most natural way to rejuvenate the skin by using plasma from your own blood this procedure restores youth and a healthy glow to the skin by stimulating new growth cells while also healing damaged tissue.
What is the difference between PRP and PRF?
With PRP, blood is spun and n a centrifuge at the higher speed completely separating the plasma layer. With PRF your blood is spun at the lower speed so that some of the white blood cells, stem cells in fiber remain in the platelet layer. The slow spin or some means if fewer cells are damage which leaves a higher concentration of healing platelets. PRF contains approximately 10 times the platelet concentration that is found within the body or as PRP contains roughly 2 to 5 times.
A PRP treatment is added to a vial containing anticoagulance which prevents the blood from clothing during injection. With PRF, no anticoagulants are added. This allows to create a fibrin matrix that tells the platelets to release their growth factors slowly. PRP releases growth factors for a few hours and PRF releases them for up to a week. The slow release have a more robust long lasting results
Lastly, PRP is performed as a facial or microneedling session while PRF is used like a filler. The fibrin and slow releasing growth factors in the PRF build volume in the skin so this natural filler is an alternative to synthetic fillers
