PRF/PRP Services
The De Pieri Clinic is fully certified to offer multiple PRP/PRF services. PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma, and PRF stands for Platelet Rich Fibrin which are the healing components in our blood. Though both PRP and PRF are similar, they are prepared in a different way and are used for different applications depending on your desired result. Many people opt for this service as it is 100% natural, as we are deriving the PRP/PRF from your own blood. This involves taking a sample of your own blood, spinning it down and extracting all of the good components of it, then injecting it back into the desired area. The serum has many uses and applications. The information below is for cosmetic purposes, but it can also be done for hair restoration.
Our treatments are unique in that we use a multi-treatment approach to achieve a visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, improved skin tone, texture, and plumpness, and softer, younger looking skin.
Types of PRP/PRF and how they are used
Once the blood draw is complete, the PRP/PRF serum can be used in a variety of different ways. We separate our PRF/PRP cosmetic services into 3 seperate uses.1. Microneedling: Once the blood draw is complete, we are then able to take the serum and paint it onto the surface of the skin and microneedle it deeper into the skins layers. Using PRP with microneedling helps speed up healing and gives your skin a large boost in collagen.2. PRF Serum Injections: This is when the PRF is injected directly under the skin to help restore lost volume. The consistency is more of a liquid state, so this is good for areas of the face such as under the eyes and around the mouth where facial movement is needed. This will give your skin a collagen boost from the inside. You can do the injections and microneedling alone, or together in combination which is known as the "vampire facial".3. PRP Gel: PRP Gel is a wonderful alternative to filler. We like to call it "Natures filler" since it is naturally derived from your own body. The process involves the same blood draw process, but the process after is what makes it unique. With a heating and cooling machine, we then turn your PRP into a thick gel consistency. This is a great option for areas such as cheek bones, jawlines and any area that needs more of a structured look.
How many treatments would I need?
Every person is different depending on their needs and depending on how the PRP/PRF is used. We typically encourage packages of 3 to achieve optimal results. Once the package of 3 is completed, yearly treatments are done to help maintain your results and skin health.
