PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a next-generation regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own healing factors to improve skin quality, stimulate collagen, and restore a natural, refreshed appearance. Unlike PRP, PRF releases growth factors slowly over time, supporting longer-lasting results. From under-eye rejuvenation to microneedling enhancement and hair restoration, PRF offers a natural, minimally invasive approach to aesthetic care rooted in the body’s innate ability to heal.
