PRF vs. PRP

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is the first-generation platelet concentrate. It is known as the “vampire facial” as it uses the patient’s own blood to treat the skin. It involves placing the blood sample in a centrifuge and spinning it at high speed. However, this procedure requires anti-clotting additives that can compromise the PRP’s potential benefits.

Meanwhile, Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) or “true blood therapy” has become a popular alternative for PRP. It is considered an advanced version of PRP with far more superior effects; studies show that PRF is three times more effective than PRP even without chemical additives. Since no additives are used, it forms a “super” blood clot with significantly higher concentrations of regenerative cells and growth factors that can stimulate healing. This results in a facial esthetics method that reduces the signs of aging, lessens scarring, and treats hair loss. 

WHAT IS PLATELET-RICH FIBRIN?

Platelet-Rich Fibrin or PRF is a technology that uses your own body’s natural and powerful healing proteins and concentrated growth factors to rejuvenate skin, treat hair loss, and speed up recovery. With a simple blood draw, a high concentration of natural growth factors in your blood can be collected and used for enhanced facial esthetics.

The protocols established to produce PRF in its most concentrated format (C-PRF) were originally developed by lead researchers at CARE Esthetics.
