PRF
Platelet Rich Fibrin
What is PRF?
Platelet rich fibrin refers to the high concentration of platelets, fibrin, and growth factors we get from drawing your blood and spinning it a centrifuge. The centrifuge separates the platelets and fibrin from the other components of our blood.
PRF is beneficial because it harnesses the body's own healing mechanisms promoting tissue regeneration, wound healing, and skin rejuvenation, making it a natural and minimally invasive option for various aesthetic and medical applications.
What do we use PRF for at REV?
We use PRF for a multitude of treatments such as microneedling, filler, scalp injections for hair restoration, and joint injections for pain management.
Microneedling
Microneedling is the process of using small, sterile needles to create intentional trauma to the surface of the skin. This trauma causes a wound-healing response, which then causes your body to pay extra attention to the treated area(s). This wound-healing response includes a surge of collagen and elastin production, which helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles, reduce texture, brighten, improve scarring, and reduce redness.
We offer Traditional Microneedling with DermaPen as well as Radio Frequency Microneedling with Potenza. Learn more here.
Joint Injections
PRF injections can help with joint pain, inflammation, and can be used to speed up healing. PRF injections are a natural, regenerative therapy that uses your own blood to promote healing.
Joint injections are useful for increasing recovery time after an injury, reducing pain, reducing inflammation, promoting tissue regeneration, and improving mobility.
PRF Filler
PRF Filler is considered a more “natural” alternative to traditional fillers. When using PRF as a filler, you’re using your own platelets and growth factors to aid with volume loss and to stimulate more collagen and elastin. You can use PRF filler in many ways, but it’s popularly used when treating the under eye area for dark circles. Click here to see filler treatments.
Hair Restoration
Platelet-rich fibrin Scalp Injections are a non-surgical hair restoration treatment that uses a patient's own blood to stimulate hair growth. PRF offers a path toward natural regrowth, using the body’s own regenerative powers to gently revitalise thinning hair and reawaken dormant follicles.
