Stimulate Your Body’s Natural Youth

Platelet therapies like PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin), PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), and PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor) offer advanced, natural treatments that stimulate tissue repair, collagen production, and overall skin rejuvenation. These regenerative therapies promote healing and restore youthful vitality to your skin.

What Are PRF, PRP, and PDGF?

  • PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a concentrated plasma derived from your own blood, rich in platelets that release growth factors to accelerate healing and collagen synthesis.
  • PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is an advanced form of PRP that includes fibrin matrix, allowing for a slower, sustained release of growth factors and improved tissue regeneration.
  • PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor) is a key growth factor found in platelets that plays a major role in cell proliferation, wound healing, and collagen formation.

 

At Avesta Aesthetics, these therapies are used alone or combined with other treatments to enhance skin texture, tone, and overall health.

How Do These Therapies Work?

Blood is drawn from your arm and processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich components. These concentrated platelets contain growth factors like PDGF that promote new cell growth, collagen production, and tissue repair. When injected or applied topically during microneedling or other procedures, they stimulate natural regeneration for healthier, younger-looking skin.

  • PRP provides a quick boost of growth factors.
  • PRF includes a fibrin scaffold that prolongs healing benefits.
  • PDGF acts as a potent signaling molecule within these treatments.

What Can PRF, PRP, and PDGF Treat?

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne scars and other types of scarring
  • Skin laxity and loss of volume
  • Uneven texture and dullness
  • Hair thinning and hair loss (when applied to scalp)
  • Accelerated healing post-surgery or cosmetic procedures
