The groundbreaking PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) treatment is the second generation to PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment.
PRF is very similar to PRP, but the difference is that PRF does not use anticoagulants or chemicals, is much more effective with up to 10x more platelets and releases more growth hormones over time.
This means the thick, gel-like PRF substance continues to work to stimulate the hair follicles and hair growth long after the treatment is completed. PRP releases these hormones early on, whereas PRF steadily releases them, resulting in more effective and long-lasting results.
It is a non-surgical and minimally invasive procedure that not only stimulates hair growth, but also improves hair density and strength. It has become a promising solution for individuals of any gender experiencing hair thinning or loss.
The PRF treatment begins the same as the PRP treatment. A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient, and once collected, undergoes a specialised centrifugation process. The centrifuge separates the platelets and growth factors from other blood components, resulting in a PRF solution that is incredibly rich in platelets and bioactive proteins essential for stimulating hair growth and reducing hair fallout.
What sets PRF apart from PRP is the absence of chemicals and anticoagulants.
The blend of growth factors in PRF helps to speed up the body’s healing process. It helps to promote faster tissue repair at the treatment site and minimises the risk of infection.
The platelets and fibrin in PRF stimulate cell production which aids in the regeneration of damaged tissues and supports the formation of new blood vessels.
The benefits of PRF for hair loss include:
We typically recommend 6 treatments spaced 3 weeks apart. However, the number of sessions you need will vary depending on your type of hair loss and your hair goals. Our aesthetic practitioner will walk you through the procedure and your treatment timeline during your free consultation.
PRF hair treatment is generally safe and suitable for most individuals. However, it may not be recommended for those with certain medical conditions or blood disorders. A consultation with one of our experts will help determine if you are a suitable candidate.
PRF hair treatment is considered safe with minimal risk of side effects. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, but these usually subside within a few days. There is no significant downtime, and you can typically resume regular activities immediately.
You can expect to see results from your PRF treatment 2-3 months after treatment. However, everyone is different and the timeline for noticeable results may vary.
It’s normal to see some hair loss before your hair regrows stronger and thicker. All of this and more will be discussed in your free consultation.
