PRP/PRF Skin Treatment
With PRP/PRF, your own blood plasma, rich in growth factors, is used to stimulate the skin from within for repair, an even skin structure and a healthy, natural glow.
During a PRP/PRF treatment a small amount of your own blood is taken and separated in a centrifuge, so that the plasma rich in platelets and growth factors remains. This 100% autologous plasma is then introduced into the skin. The growth factors stimulate the natural repair processes of the skin and prompt the production of collagen.
In the weeks after the treatment the skin works on its own repair, which usually leads to fresher, more even and radiant skin with a healthy glow.
We work with PRF, an improved form of PRP. The difference: with PRF, the substances that help your skin repair are not released all at once, but gradually, over several days. This is due to the way we process your blood. As a result, the treatment works for longer and the result is better. For this we use the Arthrex® ACP system.
The table below shows that the Arthrex® ACP system produces a plasma concentration with up to 3 times as many platelets as other PRP systems. The platelets determine the ultimate effect of the treatment, because they produce the necessary growth factors. The higher the concentration of platelets, the more effective the treatment is.
