Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) Therapy at Roberts Aesthetics + Wellness

Serving Houma, LA, and beyond, Roberts Aesthetics + Wellness offers PRF injections, an innovative method of stimulating cellular rejuvenation to treat a variety of cosmetic and functional issues. You might’ve heard about an athlete getting hurt, but did you ever wonder how the pros get back to doing what they’re best at so fast? In many cases, the secret is PRF (platelet rich fibrin). But PRF isn’t just for healing damaged tissue. This revolutionary treatment that uses the body’s own building blocks to promote cellular healing can also be used for hair regrowth and skin rejuvenation. Read on to learn more about what PRF can do for you.

Healthy Cells for Healthy Skin and Hair

What is Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)?

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a fibrin matrix that acts as a resorbable membrane, trapping platelet cytokines, growth factors, and cells. Recent research has demonstrated that autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRF) can be used in various medical procedures. In the cosmetic world, PRF injections made just under the skin yield impressive results when used to rejuvenate, lift, and smooth skin on the face, hands, and elsewhere. PRF injections can also be used on the scalp to stimulate natural hair regrowth.

How does PRF work?

Plasma is the liquid component of your blood that is mainly composed of water and protein. It allows red and white blood cells, as well as platelets, to circulate in your body. Platelets are blood cells that help your blood clot and help in healing. When platelets enter the area being treated, they degrade and release growth factors, which are substances that aid in cell repair and renewal. This starts the mending process in your body. PRF injections can boost collagen and elastin production to repair damaged skin, smooth wrinkles, and even regrow hair on the scalp.

PRF vs. PRP

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) includes active restorative characteristics that aid in skin rejuvenation. Benefits from PRF may be greater than those from PRP because of the slower rate at which its growth factors are released. Regenerative effects will be further enhanced with the use of PRF gel. PRF gel operates as a scaffold for the formation of regeneration tissue, and the PRF will continue to stimulate growth factors for up to six months post injection with PRF gel.

A Quick and Effective Treatment

Platelet-Rich Fibrin Preparation and Procedure

Before getting PRP injections, you shouldn't take aspirin or ibuprofen, which can thin your blood. Certain vitamins or supplements, such as omega-3 fatty acids, may also require a pause. During your consultation, we'll go through exactly what you need to do to prepare for your procedure. To begin your appointment for PRF injections Houma providers will draw some blood from you and place it into a centrifuge where your own platelets can be concentrated. The platelets are then put into syringes and injected into the treatment area. Your provider will gently make the injections at strategic locations to promote the greatest possible healing and regeneration.

Platelet-Rich Fibrin Recovery, Results, and Aftercare

Some discomfort and bruising may occur where the injections were given. Right away, the PRF injections will boost cellular rejuvenation and begin to produce results that continue to improve over the coming days and weeks. Your provider can recommend a course of treatment, including any follow-up sessions needed to achieve an optimal outcome.

Maintaining your PRF results: For best results, follow-up sessions may be recommended in the months after your initial injection procedure. Your provider will help you plan a course of treatment that fits your goals, timeline, and budget.
