Effective PRF Treatment in Glendale, CA

PRF treatments are commonly used to fill creases around the eyes, mouth, and temples, creating a more youthful appearance. PRF improves skin texture, thickness, collagen production and hair growth based on extensive research. PRF when combined with dermal fillers is very successful at improving dark areas under the eyes. PRF injections are also used to stimulate hair growth, which can have a noticeable benefit if you are suffering from hair loss.

How Does It Work?

How Does PRF Treatment Work?

PRF uses your own blood to improve the appearance of your face overall, specifically around the eyes, mouth, temples, under-eye hollows and deflated cheeks. PRF has a high concentration of platelets, fibrin, and white blood cells, which promotes healing from within your body.

PRF is generally a series of treatments, spaced 3-4 weeks apart, and most patients require 3-4 treatments depending on the individual to see major results. Long-term effects, such as skin tightening, collagen production and enhanced skin quality, may take up to three to four months to be noticed and can last from six to 12 months. The visibility of expected benefits and results of the PRF treatment is typically seen after six weeks from initial treatment. PRF can be used in conjunction with dermal fillers for optimum results.

PRF Treatment for Hair Loss

Since PRF growth factors come from your own blood, the body more easily accepts the treatment and increases natural tissue regeneration. The tissue growth stimulates hair follicles, making them larger and healthier so they can produce thicker hair. Both men and women benefit from PRF hair restoration.

PRF Treatment VS PRP

Compared to PRP, PRF is more natural and advanced as it uses a special centrifuge with no additives. PRF treatments contain a high concentration of fibrin, which yields better benefits such as skin elasticity and increased production of collagen.

Recovery Time

Recovery Time

PRF has no downtime. After treatment some redness, mild irritation, and swelling may occur, which is a sign that your skin is healing itself. This should disappear within hours to a few days.

Treatment Process

PRF Treatment Process

We start with an initial consultation to make sure this treatment is right for you.

First one vial of your blood is drawn. The vial is placed inside a centrifuge that separates PRF from other blood components. The PRF is then harvested from the top of the vial into a syringe. PRF is then used in combination with hyaluronic acid dermal fillers to enhance facial volume.

Plan on about a 45 minute appointment time at the office.
