PLATELET RICH PLASMA PRP / PLATELET RICH FIBRIN PRF
AVAILABLE AT FINCHLEY DENTAL CLINIC
What is PRP?
PRP is 100% natural and proven effective for hair and skin rejuvenation. A small amount of your blood is taken (20 ml) and then centrifuged, the platelet rich plasma layer is then reinjected into either the face or the hair. PRP has an anticoagulant in the blood collection tubes but PRF does not.
​
PRP VS PRF
PRF is Platelet Rich Fibrin and while similar to PRP it is the next generation. The is no anticoagulant or additives in the tube and the results are better and longer lasting (up to 1 week versus few hours with PRP). PRF when injected forms a platelet and white blood cell-rich fibrin scaffold. The fibrin clot allows for a much slower and longer release of the growth factors and cytokines , again resulting in more clinical results.
​
Both are a minimum 3 treatment protocol. This procedure works well alongside microneedling which is a treatment I offer. Results are proven but vary person to person depending on your blood quality.

Helps improve skin tone, with melasma, antiaging and antiwrinkle.
