PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) in West Des Moines, IA

The PRF process begins by drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, similar to a standard blood draw. The blood is then processed using a centrifuge to separate the platelets and growth factors from the rest of the blood components. The resulting platelet-rich fibrin is a golden-yellow substance that is rich in essential growth factors, cytokines, and other bioactive proteins.

This fibrin can be injected to stimulate cell turnover, collagen production, and creating new blood vessels. PRF injections can improve pigmentation as well as skin firmness, texture, and thickness.
