WHAT IS A PRF TREATMENT?

A PRF Treatment is an aesthetic solution harnessing the power of your own blood to rejuvenate deflated cheeks, enhance skin tone, address under-eye hollows, and combat hair loss. This approach utilizes platelet-rich fibrin to instigate a healing response within the skin at a cellular level, ensuring a revitalized and radiant complexion.

THE WHAT

ARE YOU A CANDIDATE?

THE HOW

HOW IT'S DONE:

During a PRF Treatment, your blood undergoes a precise centrifugation to isolate the PRF from other blood components. The concentrated PRF is then delicately transferred into a syringe, ready to be skillfully injected into your skin.

RESULTS, RECOVERY, FREQUENCY

Experience no downtime with a PRF Treatment. Schedule a series of treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart for optimal results. Enjoy the benefits lasting 1-4 weeks between sessions. Witness long-term effects like skin tightening, collagen production, and enhanced skin quality emerging gradually over 3-4 months, with results that can endure for 6-12 months.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Swelling and bruising at the injection site is normal after a PRF Treatment.

You can expect to feel the fibrin clot under the skin. This will slowly dissolve over 5-7 days.
