PRF FAQs
How does PRF work?
When injected into specific areas, PRF triggers a cascade of healing processes. Growth factors stimulate collagen and elastin production, plumping up your skin and reducing wrinkles. Additionally, PRF improves blood flow and cell turnover, contributing to a brighter, more youthful complexion.
Is PRF safe?
PRF is generally considered safe with minimal side effects. As it utilizes your own blood, the risk of allergic reactions is extremely low. However, it's crucial to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to ensure your candidacy and address any potential concerns.
How long does PRF last?
Results typically last around 12-18 months, but individual experiences may vary. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and undergoing additional sessions can prolong the effects.
What is the Difference in PRF and PRP?
Both PRF and PRP harness the power of platelets in your blood, known for their healing and tissue regeneration properties. However, the preparation process differs:
- PRF: Blood undergoes slower centrifugation, allowing natural clotting factors like fibrin to remain in the concentrated platelet-rich mixture.
- PRP: Blood is centrifuged at high speeds, separating platelets and plasma from red blood cells and other components.
PRF Advantages:
- Higher concentration of fibrin: Fibrin forms a 3D scaffold, providing a slow-release depot for growth factors, potentially leading to longer-lasting results.
- Preserves white blood cells: These cells play a role in wound healing and inflammation control, potentially enhancing tissue repair.
- More natural approach: No anticoagulants are used during PRF preparation, minimizing potential chemical interference with healing processes.
PRP Advantages:
- Higher platelet concentration: PRP may offer a more potent initial burst of growth factors, potentially leading to faster visible results.
- Wider range of applications: PRP has established efficacy in various medical fields beyond aesthetics, like sports medicine and dentistry.
- More readily available: PRP treatment is currently more widespread than PRF, potentially making it easier to find a provider.
What are the side effects of PRF?
PRF is mostly well-tolerated, but some mild, temporary side effects can occur:
- Bruising
- Redness or irritation
- Injection site discomfort
What about under-eye PRF swelling?
Mild swelling after under-eye PRF is common and usually subsides within a few days. However, if it persists or worsens, consult your healthcare provider.
PRF vs. PRP for Face: Which One to Choose?
Both PRF and PRP can address facial concerns like wrinkles, fine lines, and uneven skin tone. However:
- PRF: May be preferable for volumizing areas like under-eye hollows due to the fibrin scaffold providing structural support.
- PRP: May be more effective for stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture due to the higher platelet concentration.
PRF vs. PRP for Hairs: What's the Best?
Both treatments can potentially combat hair loss and promote hair growth. However:
- PRF: The fibrin matrix in PRF may anchor hair follicles and provide sustained nourishment, potentially leading to longer-lasting results.
- PRP: The higher platelet concentration in PRP may offer a stronger initial boost in hair growth.
