PRP/PRF Rejuvenation Therapy Specialist in Yorba Linda CA

PRP therapy increases collagen production. Even with a single application, this treatment improves dermal collagen levels through growth factors and skin needling, making it an excellent therapy for general skin rejuvenation.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) come from your own blood and contain high concentrations of platelets and growth factors that help your tissue heal and grow new cells. It’s obtained by drawing a small amount of blood from your arm into a sterile tube and then centrifuging the tube (at different speeds depending on whether we’re extracting PRP or PRF). What we’re left with is a blood concentrate that, once injected, can help damaged, aging skin grow new collagen and elastin to achieve a beautiful, youthful, rejuvenated look. PRP and PRF have also been shown to be effective hair loss treatments. PRP/PRF is injected by the doctor into your face or scalp, using a syringe. You may have a bit of pain, bruising, and swelling afterwards. These tend to go away within a few days.

What is the difference between PRP and PRF?

When PRF is collected, there is no anticoagulant in the tube into which it’s collected and in result the plasma forms a platelet and white blood cell-rich fibrin scaffold once injected into the treatment area. The fibrin clot allows for a much slower and longer release of growth factors (up to 1 week) as opposed to PRP which releases growth factors within a few hours. This causes PRF to yield a better, more substantial result than PRP.   

Benefits of PRP/PRF?

If you’re looking for a substantial, gradual improvement and natural results then PRP/PRF is for you. It has been shown to promote facial rejuvenation, improve texture, soften scars, smooth wrinkles and tighten the skin. It has also been used to promote hair restoration. 

Because PRP/PRF is obtained from your own blood, side effects tend to be minimal.

What can you expect during treatment?  

• No anesthesia required but we can provide topical lidocaine prior to treatment.
• Procedure takes 30-60 minutes (or longer) depending on the area being treated.

• If used in conjunction with micro-needling, you may experience a slight discomfort, although it’s minimized by using a topical anesthetic. 
• Slight redness and bruising may occur.
• Side effects are minimized because PRP/PRF are derived from your own blood.

Downtime 

The downtime is minimal. There might be minor swelling and discomfort at the site of treatment, which is temporary and should go away within a few days. You may apply cold compresses afterward. 

How long does the treatment last? 

We recommend that you get 3-6 treatments, which are 4-6 weeks apart, and then a maintenance treatment once a year. Improvement in skin texture can be seen within 3-6 months and will continue to improve months after treatment. Full collagen regeneration requires 6 months.
