PRP/PRF
PRP/PRF
PRF, or “Liquid Gold,” as we like to call it, is the perfect solution to stimulate cell growth within the body. The patient’s blood is drawn, processed, and then used for treatment. The amazing benefits of PRF can be used to give a natural filling effect to areas such as the tear troughs and nasolabial folds and help treat fine lines and dark circles. It also can stimulate hair growth, diminish the appearance of scarring, encourage the body’s collagen production, and much more.
PRF, also considered the second-generation PRP, is one of the most natural ways to induce collagen. It is obtained via a blood draw and spun via a centrifuge to create a fibrin matrix. PRF is superior to PRP because the growth factors last much longer, producing superior results and typically requiring fewer treatments. It also accelerates the healing process. You can use PRF in either an injection or through micro punctures created in the skin’s dermis layer.
TREATMENT
Facial Injections
PRF can be strategically injected into facial areas to promote collagen production, tighten loose skin, improve texture, and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Come to your appointment hydrated, nourished, and ready to have a blood sample drawn.
Scar Treatment
PRF can be injected or microneedled into the skin on the face and body to diminish the appearance of stretch marks and superficial and surgical scarring. Treating surgical scars with PRF requires more than one appointment to achieve the best result. Schedule a consultation with Sculpted Aesthetics to discuss your unique case!
Hair Restoration
If you struggle with thin, weak, or brittle hair, PRF injections might be the answer you are looking for! PRF is an industry-leading treatment for hair restoration. To achieve optimal results, hair restoration with PRF will likely take 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
FAQs
Is PRF painful?
Your Sculpted Aesthetics injector will communicate with you through the procedure to effectively manage your comfort levels. We will also adjust the needle depth according to the area being treated.
Is there downtime after microneedling PRF?
Your face may appear red and tight for the first 24-48 hours, like a sunburn. However, the redness will subside soon after. Some light bruising is normal in clients with sensitive skin. You will be given a PRF serum to continue applying to the face the following night and morning after treatment to infuse the skin with more natural growth factors. Some light peeling is also expected and may occur 1-3 days after treatment.
How often do I need PRF treatments?
Most patients will need a series of treatments for optimal results. Treatment numbers vary depending on the area and concern being treated.
Is there downtime after PRF for hair restoration?
After your hair restoration treatment, you may experience tenderness, redness, and mild swelling. These symptoms should subside within 48 hours. Be sure to follow the post-treatment instructions given by your Sculpted injector.
How long do results last for Hair restoration with PRF?
Generally, results can be seen 2-3 months after your first injections. Optimal results can be seen 2-3 months after your final injections in your series of treatments. Touch-up appointments are needed to maintain results.
