PRF Skin Rejuvenation in London

As we age, our skin produces less elastin and collagen and is more prone to wrinkles, fine lines and other common skin conditions. PRF skin rejuvenation can help reverse these signs of ageing.

Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) skin rejuvenation treatments use the healing power of your own blood to help regenerate your skin.

Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) skin treatment is considered the second generation of PRP skin treatments and theoretically improves on it in every way. PRF uses a higher concentration of growth factors and includes stem cells, fibrin and white blood cells. PRF can contain up to 10 times more platelet concentration than normal blood.

PRF skin treatments improve upon PRP in some fundamental ways.

  • No anticoagulant or additives! By using specific tubes for PRF there is no anticoagulant in the tube that the blood is collected, the plasma actually forms a platelet and white blood cell-rich fibrin scaffold once injected into the treatment area. The fibrin clot can allow for a much slower and longer release of the growth factors and cytokines – in other words, PRF treatment can continue to release more growth factors in your skin over time, even after your treatment is completed.
  • PRF can also stimulate faster healing than PRP.
  • The blood is spun using a specific centrifuge at a lower speed so that the layers of the blood don’t separate as distinctly. It also leaves essential elements within the plasma, such as fibrin and white blood cells we know are good for healing and stem cells that are the body’s self-repair system.

PRF treatments also use a higher concentration of platelets, up to 10x normal blood rather than up to 5x of PRP. This can increase the beneficial effects of those growth factors within the blood.

PRF skin treatments can be effective at treating:

Your PRF Skin Treatment Appointment

Your PRF skin treatment appointment should take 60 minutes and require minimal recovery time.

You will fill out a medical history form during your free skin consultation where you will detail any medication you’re taking that may determine your suitability for the PRF skin treatment.

PRF skin treatments work like this:

  • PRF engineered tubes & tube holder/cooler are stored in a fridge at 4 degrees.
  • We withdraw a small amount of blood, using equipment specifically designed for PRF treatments.
  • The PRF tubes is then placed into a tube holder and cooler for 60 seconds. By cooling the blood, this can result in 20-50% more PRF liquid to be used to reintroduced into the areas where there is skin concerns.
  • Then, we immediately place that blood into a unique centrifuge for PRF treatments to separate the different elements of blood. The PRF tubes are spun at an exact 700rpm for 5 minutes.
  • PRF is then carefully injected into the areas of concern. These fine injections are in conjunction with micro-needling.
  • We also provide complimentary LLLT therapy after every PRF skin treatment. LLLT can help promote collagen production, increase blood flow throughout the skin, reduce the inflammation and help accelerate the healing process.

Once complete, you will most likely have some redness which will subside over the next few days. We strongly suggest to do your best to avoid the sun for 3-5 days, depending on how sensitive your skin is to the PRF skin treatment.

After your PRF skin rejuvenation treatment there should be minimal side effects. You can expect redness with maybe some minimal bruising. During your free skin consultation and after your treatment, we will explain to you in detail what precautions you need to take to make sure your skin heals properly.

PRF skin treatments

PRF skin treatments are the evolution of the exceptionally popular PRP skin treatments. It builds on PRP in a couple of fundamental ways to improve results and deliver even more healing potential. PRF skin treatments are considered to have up to 10x concentration of platelets when compared to PRP and can continue to release growth factors over time, even after your treatment has been completed.

PRF, platelet-rich fibrin, uses the 100% natural healing power of your own blood to help encourage the production of collagen and elastin and the regeneration of skin cells.

This can result in firmer, smoother, younger-looking skin, that helps maintain a youthful body. It can also help treat a range of common conditions such as wrinkles, fine lines, skin discolouration, sagging skin and the many signs of ageing.

PRF skin treatments are:

  • Non-surgical and non-invasive
  • Can contain up to 10x concentration of platelets when compared to PRP
  • Can continue to release growth factors over time, even after treatment
  • Completely natural as they use your own blood as the treatment
  • Fast and effective with appointments lasing just 45 minutes
  • An alternative to other cosmetic treatments
  • Affordable and accessible to both men and women

How do PRF skin treatments work?

PRF skin treatments work by utilising the healing power of your own blood in targeted areas.

The process is simple and painless and will be over in just 45 minutes.

We begin by taking a small sample of blood, like a blood test. We refine the blood and separate it into the PRF solution.

The solution contains platelets, fibrin, white blood cells and other growth factors that can help regenerate skin and make it look younger.

The PRF solution is applied using tiny injections under the eyes and microneedling the entire face with your own PRF solution.

Once complete, we can apply a red LED light to help minimise redness and reduce inflammation.

After that, you’re free to go about your day with little or no sign you had anything done!

PRF Skin Treatment FAQs

PRF skin treatment is considered the second generation to the very popular PRP skin treatment. It uses the healing power of your own blood to help promote the production of collagen and elastin in the skin.

It uses blood plasma, white blood cells, fibrin and stem cells to encourage the regeneration of skin to reduce the signs of ageing and to help treat a number of skin conditions.
The number of PRF treatments you’ll need depends on the current condition of your skin, your age and overall health. Typically, we recommend 3-5 spaced 1-2 months, however, this depends on you as an individual and how you respond to your first PRF skin treatment.

Once treatment is complete, you would benefit from top up treatments every 3-6 months to help maintain skin condition. Again, this depends on you, your skin type and how you respond to the PRF skin treatment.
How long it takes to see the results of PRF skin treatments depends entirely on the current condition of your skin and your health & wellbeing. Everyone is different and everyone will experience different benefits, however, the majority of people should experience significant results.

Typically, we see our patients beginning to see positive results within 2-3 months. Many patients should experience a very natural glow with a more even skin tone, less fine wrinkles and less pigmentation.
The benefits of PRF skin rejuvenation can typically last between 12-18 months. Much depends on your genetics, health, diet and overall state of wellness. We can provide more specific guidance once we meet and have a chance to perform a formal skin assessment.
The PRF skin treatment appointment is carried out in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. First, a registered nurse will withdraw a small amount of blood using a specific PRF tube and place it in a PRF centrifuge. We carefully inject your own PRF into your skin. This is combined with PRF micro-needling the entire face, which helps with blood flow and collagen production.

We then provide complimentary LLLT therapy after every PRF skin treatment you have. LLLT can help promote collagen production, increase blood flow throughout the skin, reduce the inflammation and help accelerate the healing process.
Most people over the age of 18 can have PRF skin treatments, with a few exceptions. Anyone with a condition of the blood or taking specific medication will need to seek medical advice before undergoing treatment. At Hair and Skin Science we make sure to take precautions and ask for your medical history during your free skin consultation.
