Revitalize Your Skin: Discover the Power of PRF Treatments at DermaVue
Platelet | Rich | Fibrin
Discover enhanced healing and aesthetic rejuvenation with DermaVue’s advanced PRF treatments, a breakthrough in natural regenerative therapies. Dive deep into the science, benefits, and transformative potential of PRF.
Understanding PRF:
- in platelets, white blood cells, and fibrin, ensuring a longer stimulation period for cells and tissues.
- Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a derivative of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) that has gained attention in the field of regenerative medicine. Similar to PRP, PRF is derived from the patient’s own blood and contains a high concentration of platelets and growth factors. However, the preparation method for PRF differs from PRP.
- PRF is created by centrifuging the patient’s blood without using any anticoagulants. This results in the formation of a fibrin clot that contains platelets, leukocytes (white blood cells), and growth factors. The fibrin clot acts as a natural scaffold that slowly releases the growth factors over a longer period, potentially enhancing the regenerative effects.
- The Science Unfolded: PRF’s unique composition supports prolonged release of growth factors and cytokines, fostering more effective cell proliferation, differentiation, and regenerative capabilities.
- PRF has shown promise in promoting tissue regeneration and improving skin quality.
- It aids in the healing of long-standing ulcers and promotes skin rejuvenation.
- You can also use it in combination with other treatments, such as microneedling or as an adjunct to other procedures, to enhance outcomes.

Indications for PRF Treatment:
Skin Rejuvenation: Used in aesthetic treatments for improving skin texture and reducing wrinkles.
Hair Loss Treatment: Helps in stimulating hair growth, particularly in cases of androgenetic alopecia.
Dental Surgery: Aids in healing after tooth extractions and dental implant procedures.
Wound Healing: Enhances recovery of wounds, including surgical incisions, burns, and ulcers.
Musculoskeletal Injuries: Useful in treating sports injuries like tendonitis and ligament sprains.
Soft Tissue Regeneration: Additionally, it assists in regenerating soft tissues in reconstructive surgeries.
Chronic Pain Management: Applied in managing pain in muscles and joints.
Osteoarthritis: Provides relief from joint pain and inflammation in osteoarthritis.
Post-surgical Recovery: Speeds up healing post-surgery and improves recovery outcomes.
Chronic Ulcers: Effective in healing skin ulcers, including those in diabetic patients.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Unlike PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), PRF is obtained without anticoagulants, resulting in a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors over a longer period. This slower release offers potentially more effective and longer-lasting rejuvenation results.
The process involves drawing a small amount of your blood, spinning it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting the PRF into targeted areas of your skin. The procedure usually takes about 30-60 minutes.
PRF treatment for hair loss involves injecting PRF into the scalp. This process stimulates hair follicles, promotes new hair growth, and strengthens existing hair. Moreover, it’s particularly effective in cases of androgenetic alopecia.
A typical course includes 3-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart, with maintenance treatments every 6-12 months. However, the regimen can vary based on individual needs and severity of hair loss.
PRF enhances wound healing by releasing growth factors that accelerate tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and improve the healing rate. It’s especially beneficial in chronic or non-healing wounds.
PRF is effective in a range of wound types, including surgical incisions, burns, ulcers, and diabetic wounds. However, its use may be limited in infected or certain complex wounds.
As PRF is derived from the patient’s own blood, it is generally well-tolerated with minimal risk of allergic reactions. Common side effects include mild pain, swelling, and bruising at the injection site.
For skin rejuvenation, improvements may be noticed within a few weeks, with optimal results appearing in 2-3 months. Hair growth can take a few months to become evident. Wound healing rates vary depending on the wound type and patient’s overall health.
