Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) Therapy

PRF therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that utilizes your body's own healing properties to rejuvenate scar tissue. The process begins with a simple blood draw. The blood is then processed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich fibrin, a concentration of platelets, fibrin, and growth factors essential for healing. This fibrin is then applied to the scarred area, stimulating cell regeneration and collagen production, which smooths the skin and reduces the visibility of scars.

Microneedling

Microneedling involves using a device equipped with tiny, sterile needles to create controlled injuries on the skin's surface. These micro-injuries trigger the body's natural healing response without causing significant damage to the epidermis, which helps repair scar tissue and smooth the skin. Microneedling can also improve the absorption of PRF or other topical treatments, enhancing their effectiveness.

Types of Scars Treated

Acne Scars

Acne can leave behind pitted or raised scars, which can be difficult to hide. Non-surgical treatments stimulate collagen production, helping to smooth out the skin’s surface and improve its texture and tone.

Surgical Scars

Surgical scars vary in size and appearance but can often be improved with PRF therapy or microneedling. These treatments soften scar tissue, reduce thickness, and promote more even pigmentation, helping the scar blend with the surrounding skin.

Traumatic Scars

Injuries like cuts, burns, or abrasions often leave behind noticeable scars. Non-surgical scar revision helps soften these scars and improve skin flexibility, reducing discomfort and improving appearance.

Hypertrophic and Keloid Scars

Raised scars, including hypertrophic and keloid scars, can be treated with non-invasive methods to reduce their prominence. These treatments help flatten the scar and alleviate symptoms such as itching or discomfort.

Stretch Marks (Striae)

Stretch marks occur when the skin stretches rapidly due to weight changes, growth spurts, or pregnancy. Non-surgical treatments promote collagen production to reduce the appearance of stretch marks and improve skin texture.
