Injectable Platelet Rich Fibrin (iPRF) is an all-natural, non-surgical regenerative treatment that utilises the patient’s own blood in order to treat fine lines and wrinkles, volume loss, scars, pigmentation, poor texture and hair restoration. iPRF is similar to the widely known PRP but much more potent due to its different composition.
Injectable platelet rich fibrin (iPRF) uses the patient’s own blood plasma which contains:
• platelets (they store growth factors)
• fibrin (organises the tissue for healing and keeps the growth factors ‘trapped’ in the area encouraging the production of collagen)
• stem cells (potent cells that initiate cascades for healing and rejuvenation).
The blood plasma is then administered to the face or hair via microneedling and direct injection into areas of concern via a needle and syringe.
3-4 treatments are usually required with 4 weeks in between treatments
