PRF Treatments in Mississauga

What is PRF?

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is an advanced regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own healing properties to improve skin quality, restore volume, and stimulate natural collagen production. It can help address concerns such as under-eye hollows, fine lines, thinning or crepey skin, uneven texture, and hair thinning. By gradually releasing growth factors, PRF supports tissue regeneration, promotes collagen and elastin production, and enhances overall skin health for a smoother, firmer, fuller, and more refreshed appearance.

How PRF Works

PRF is derived from a small sample of your own blood, which is spun in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets, growth factors, and white blood cells into a fibrin-rich matrix. Unlike PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), PRF is processed without anticoagulants, allowing it to form a natural fibrin scaffold. This scaffold releases growth factors more gradually over time, which supports longer-lasting collagen production and tissue regeneration.

Because PRF uses your own blood, there's no risk of allergic reaction, and downtime is minimal.

PRP vs. PRF

PRP and PRF are regenerative treatments that use your own blood to support the skin's natural healing and rejuvenation processes. While both harness the benefits of platelets and growth factors, their preparation and release profiles differ.
Comparison PRP PRF
What it stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma Platelet-Rich Fibrin
How it's prepared Blood is processed to concentrate platelets and growth factors in a liquid plasma. Blood is processed without anticoagulants, creating a fibrin matrix rich in platelets and growth factors.
Growth factor release Faster release More gradual, sustained release
Texture Liquid Fibrin-rich, gel-like matrix
Common uses Skin rejuvenation, improving skin texture, and supporting collagen production. Skin rejuvenation, collagen support, and targeted regenerative treatments.
Treatment areas Face, under-eyes, and scalp Face, under-eyes, and scalp
