Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) / Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) Regenerative Therapy in Weston, MA
What is PRP/PRF?​
PRP or Platelet-Rich Plasma ("Liquid Gold") is blood plasma that is derived from your own blood and contains high concentration of platelets. Platelets release growth factors that naturally stimulate tissue healing, regeneration, improve skin texture and stimulate hair follicles.
​
PRF or Platelet Rich Fibrin is the next generation of PRP. While PRP and PRF both contain healing and regenerative growth factors, PRF contains more platelet concentration than PRP, therefore having greater healing & regenerative properties. ​
For decades, PRP has been used in the medicine to enhance tissue healing and regeneration. PRP has been used in fields of oral and maxillo-facial surgery, orthopedic surgery, dermatology and sexual wellness. ​
​​
PRP/PRF therapy is used now for facial rejuvenation, hair restoration, hand rejuvenation, joint healing, sexual sensitivity restoration, and other things.​
PRP/PRF rejuvenation therapy uses your own blood platelets and growth factors to stimulate:
​
-
Inactive hair follicles into growth phase. This results in improved hair growth, reduction of hair loss, and thicker and healthier hair.
​
-
Trigger collagen and elastin production in the skin, resulting in tighter, smoother skin, improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles, acne scars and dark spots.​ PRP skin treatments cause your skin to naturally repair itself.
​​PRP can be used alone or in combination with other therapies, and medications. PRP therapy is frequently combined with facial rejuvenation and anti-aging treatments such as Microneedling, BOTOX, Fillers. ​​​​
PRP/PRF Procedure
PRP procedure begins with drawing blood from your arm, then centrifuging it to separate plasma and platelets from blood cells. After centrifugation, the concentrated PRP (Liquid Gold) contains about 5 times more platelets than the normal circulating blood. Concentrated PRP is then collected in the syringes and injected into the targeted areas.
​
Procedure takes about 45 min to one hour. There is no downtime. Patients may take a shower the day of the treatment, and can return to normal activities. ​For optimal results, 3-4 monthly treatment cycles are recommended. No downtime.
​
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
​
PRP therapy is a cutting edge injectable treatment for stimulating hair growth, rejuvenating skin & repairing the signs of aging in 100% natural way. PRP has been used for decades in the medical field to enhance tissue healing and regeneration.
​
PRP is a blood plasma (Liquid Gold) that contains high concentration of platelets, 5 to 10 times the normal level, and is derived from the patient's own blood. The platelets release multiple growth factors that naturally stimulate healing and cell regeneration. Growth factors stimulate:
​
-
Activation of hair follicles which results in healthier and fuller hair
​
-
Triggers collagen and elastin production, resulting in tighter, smoother skin
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)
​
PRF or Platelet Rich Fibrin is the next generation of PRP. While PRP and PRF both contain healing and regenerative growth factors, PRF contains about 10 times more platelet concentration than normal blood, therefore having greater healing & regenerative properties.
The advantages of PRF treatment include:
​
-
Growth factors are released for several days (not hours) after treatment
​
-
PRF contains more healing factors & stems cells (compared to PRP) when injected.
