Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRP) is completely autologous blood with very high concentrations of platelets. 5-6 times over baseline levels and contain high potential growth factors. Normal blood contains 6% platelets. However, in PRF, there is a concentration of 94% platelets, which identifies a very high concentration of growth factors that can be used for many effective treatments. PRF treatment is used by stimulating cellular proliferation and tissue regeneration to dramatically accelerate healing.
Our blood is mainly liquid, called Plasma, which contains small specialized red cells, white cells, and platelets. The platelets are best known for their importance in clotting blood. However, platelets also contain hundreds of protein growth factors which are very important in the healing of injuries and damaged tissue. PRP is plasma with very high concentrations of platelets, which include growth factors, vital proteins as albumin, gamma globulin, clotting factors, hormones, mineral salts, vitamins, and cholesterol (fats).
The Treatment:
JAWY Skin utilizes the Arthrex system for harvesting blood and spinning down the PRF. Arhtrex is developed as a sterilized unit that is medically safe to reinject PRP back into your skin. The syringe is lined with patented silicone to safely horizontally spin down the PRF for no rupturing of any platelets. With this technique, we move cells from one area of your body and place them where they are needed in a concentrated form to promote healing, restoration, rejuvenation. PRF stimulates cell growth and collagen & elastin production, healing the skin and eliminating wrinkles, scarring, and pigmentation.
We recommend 3-4 Treatments spaced monthly, thereafter maintenance every 6 months.
