You may have heard us speaking in acronyms. PRP, PRF, and PRG sound like a secret code, so let's bring you in on the meaning behind these amazing regenerative treatments. All three of these treatments harness your body's natural healing abilities to rejuvenate your skin and restore a youthful glow using your body's own growth factors.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), and Platelet-Rich Gel (PRG) are ideal for treating the face, neck, decolletage, and scalp.
All three treatments begin with a simple blood draw, followed by centrifugation to separate the beneficial components of your blood. These components, rich in growth factors and healing cells, are injected into the treatment zone to trigger natural healing, improve skin texture, and reduce signs of aging.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
PRP is the original option in regenerative therapy. PRP is used to stimulate collagen production and improve blood flow. Once the plasma is separated in the centrifuge, it's injected into your skin to:
Enhance skin tone and texture
Minimize fine lines and pigmentation
Boost natural collagen production
Can be used to stimulate hair growth
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
PRF takes PRP a step further. While the same process is used, it is spun at a slower speed with the addition of calcium chloride as a platelet activator. This creates a fibrin matrix which is a natural scaffold that holds the platelets in place, allowing for a slower, sustained release of growth factors. Key benefits of PRF are:
Longer-lasting results compared to PRP
Gradual rejuvenation over time
Added structural support for delicate areas, such as under the eyes
Platelet-Rich Gel (PRG)
PRG is the latest and greatest generation of platelet-rich therapy, a completely natural, gel-like product made from your own blood. After centrifugation, the plasma undergoes additional heating and cooling, causing the plasma's Human Serum Albumin (HSA) to clot and form a thicker gel consistency. Key benefits of PRG are:
Creates a smooth, filler-like gel with longer-lasting results
Provides both immediate volume and long-term rejuvenation
One of the only treatments safe for the delicate under-eye skin
Allows for a slow, extended release of growth factors and cytokines
No additives are needed to create this wonderous gel
