At Visage Dermatology, we’re always searching for treatments and products to help you look your best at any age. We want to be able to offer patients some natural alternatives on our quest to regain full, youthful features.

As we continue to age, we lose volume, elasticity, and collagen in our skin – most notably on our faces. This results in loose, sagging skin, wrinkles, and an overall sunken appearance. Luckily, as treatments continue to advance, we’ve started using a therapy called platelet rich fibrin (PRF) therapy to help combat the visible signs of aging.

What is Platelet Rich Fibrin?

PRF therapy is an advanced, new age version of platelet rich plasma (PRP) treatments. PRF produces stronger results than PRP because it contains more substantial concentrations of leukocytes (white blood cells), platelets, and certain stem cells not found in PRP.

The leukocytes are healing in nature and work under a controlled inflammatory response to target problem areas while stem cells help regenerate new cells and platelets stimulate collagen production and rejuvenation.

Additionally, PRF releases growth factors from platelets more slowly than PRP and healing takes only a few hours instead of a few days. Simply put, PRF has stronger properties that work together to provide better, longer-lasting results. With no additives, this natural treatment is perfect for anyone looking to gain back their youth.

We love PRF as an option to patients that want a more natural, synthetic free alternative. Platelet Rich Fibrin treatments are beneficial not only because they’re natural, but also because they actually work.

TREATMENT Options include: Lips, Under the eyes; to help treat dark under eye circles, Acne Scarring, Wrinkles and Fine Lines, Hair restoration and Brow Thickness.

PRF Lip Injections “Plasma Lips”

PRF is made using your body’s own unique growth factor making it 100% safe and customized to you. When PRF is injected into the lips it immediately lifts your lip upward, giving what many refer to as a “lip flip”. PRF injections helps in restoring the quality of the lips by improving the hydration of the lip. Injecting your PRF into your lips causes the regeneration of fat cells due to the slow release of your own growth factors. The regeneration of fat cells causes not only a naturally plump lip, but also the youthful glow restoring the lost color of the lips and makes them healthier and provides an overall radiance that we love.
