What is Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)?
Plasma Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a natural substance derived from a patient’s own blood. PRF is obtained by taking a small amount of the patient’s blood and placing it in a centrifuge machine that separates the blood cells and plasma. The plasma is then collected and used for cosmetic procedures. PRF contains a high concentration of platelets, growth factors, and white blood cells, which are important for the body’s natural healing process. It can be injected directly into the skin or mixed with other substances such as hyaluronic acid to enhance its effects.
How is PRF used in cosmetic procedures?
PRF is an increasingly popular cosmetic treatment that offers a range of benefits for various aesthetic concerns. PRF is commonly used in cosmetic procedures such as facials, microneedling and hair restoration. Here are some of the most common and unique applications of PRF in cosmetic procedures:
What are the benefits of using PRF in cosmetic procedures?
What does the procedure entail?
PRF is harvested from our very own blood. Prior to the treatment, one vial of blood is drawn to fill a 13 ml tube, which is a little less than a tablespoon. Next, the blood is placed inside a specialized centrifuge designed to separate PRF from other blood components. After spinning, the PRF is harvested from the top of the vial into a syringe. Once the PRF is ready, there is a delicate window of approximately 15 minutes before the PRF forms into a gel-like consistency. In my clinic, PRF has been most commonly used in concert with hyaluronic acid dermal fillers to enhance facial volume and improve the quality of the surrounding skin.
Who is a good candidate for this treatment?
The great thing about PRF is that most people are good candidates for treatment, depending on the patient’s individual concerns. For example, when patients are seeking filler treatment but have thin skin, PRF can actually thin the hyaluronic acid filler and allow for a smoother, more natural-looking injection.
What are some of the reasons patients ask for this procedure?
Many seek this treatment due to volume deficient areas of the face which include but are not limited to: under eyes, the corners of the mouth and the temples. At times, patients seem hesitant toward other products to be used as injectables, as it is not their own. The fact that PRF is comprised from the patient’s own blood is the driving factor for which patients seem interested in this specific treatment. It acts as a temporary volumizer, however the true advantage of this treatment is the rejuvenation of skin quality.
How long do the results last?
PRF is performed in a series of treatments, spaced three months apart. Results typically last one to three weeks and the volume will essentially dissipate. Long-term effects, such as skin tightening, collagen production and enhanced skin quality, may take up to three to four months to be noticed and can last from six to 12 months. The visibility of expected benefits and results of the PRF treatment is typically seen after six weeks from initial treatment.
What do you believe are the benefits of a PRF treatment for the face versus dermal fillers?
Injectable fillers serve the single purpose of addressing volume deficiency. While PRF does give temporary volume enhancement (this effect does subside within a couple of weeks after treatment), the purpose of PRF injections is highly directed toward skin rejuvenation: skin tightening, improved skin texture and quality, and collagen stimulation. On the one hand, this does present some overlap to the benefits of PRF versus synthetic fillers, but in terms of longevity, it varies depending on the type of dermal filler used and how much of it is placed.
What is EZGEL?
EZGEL is a 100% Natural, Regenerative and Bio-stimulating Gel offering infinite new possibilities in the use of autologous blood concentrates. Using the body’s own powerful proteins, instead of relying on trending artificial chemical components, EZGEL is the prime treatment for skin rejuvenation.
WHAT CAN EZGEL DO?
Stimulates collagen production
Rejuvenates the skin
Treats symmetry adjustment
Reduces signs of aging (wrinkles, fine lines, loose skin)
Reduces acne scars
How does it work?
EZGEL is obtained by mixing the growth factors of liquid EZPRF (PRF) and the Albumin of Plasma. This is achieved by the centrifugation and heating process of a whole blood sample without chemicals or modifications. EZGEL provides innovative, flexible consistency allowing the gel’s viscosity to adapt to the various areas of treatment.
How does EZGEL stimulate rejuvenation?
EZGEL is 100% autologous and natural. It is the combination of Seroalbumin and Growth Factors. The miraculous human body naturally produces certain proteins and growth factors to heal itself when necessary. EZGEL uses this exact material, found in our own blood, to produce a unique concentration of proteins and growth factors, naturally stimulating and maximizing the regenerative process of diverse cell types and tissues, resulting in incredible outcomes in terms of skin rejuvenation. The extended release of growth factors and bio-stimulation make EZGEL the most organic, beautification gel.
Is EZGEL for everyone?
Yes! EZGEL is well tolerated by most patients. As its source is 100% natural and free of all chemicals, it’s the safest gel on the market. EZGEL’s versatility makes it easy to incorporate in a natural rejuvenation treatment plan fully customizable by you.
The Vampire Facial® on the other hand, is a type of skin resurfacing treatment (such as
micro-channeling) which is followed by infusing the Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) into the skin. The benefit of this method of treatment is that the tiny needles used with micro-channeling “trick” your body into thinking there is an injury, so new collagen is produced. Though the tiny needles may make the skin look red or irritated for a short while after treatment, it is well known to look much worse than it feels!
The results are extremely beneficial for those with fine lines or those who have acne scars or other imperfections they would like to improve.
How are these two procedures similar?
The Vampire Facelift® and The Vampire Facial® are similar in that they are both non-invasive aesthetic treatments only offered by practitioners who have undergone extensive proprietary training, certification and follow-up education. Clients can feel confident that the process will be as comfortable as possible and give results that exceed expectations.
In addition, both procedures utilize PRF in a way that encourages the skin to heal itself and look its best for a
significant time after the procedure. Results will continuously improve for a few weeks after the process and
usually last for at least 12 months.
Orgasm is not only pleasurable it is healthy. If you have noticed a dip in your sexual desire, we can help restore your enjoyment of intimacy and pleasure with the “O Shot.” Following the end of childbearing years women complain of vaginal dryness, lack of sexual interest and the inability to enjoy sexual pleasure to its fullest.
The O-Shot™ involves isolation of PRF (platelet rich fibrin) followed by a very specific method of amplifying or augmenting the vaginal tissues with injection of that PRF. The method of isolating the PRF is an FDA approved process.
Women usually enjoy the effects of the O-Shot™ almost immediately as the growth factors begin to rejuvenate and enhance the sexual response.
The O-Shot® (or Orgasm Shot®) is a nonsurgical procedure that uses the growth factors each woman has in her own body to stimulate vaginal and clitoral rejuvenation to activate the Female Orgasm System. Thus far, almost all women receiving the O-Shot™ procedure enjoy an increase in their sexual response, and for many the increase is dramatic. Results may vary.
Benefits Include:
Results last up to 12 months for most women and there has been no reported complications in over 45,000 users.
Prior to your procedure, Donna Kelleher-Yassen, NP will take a health history and answer any questions. A numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area. The blood is drawn from the arm in the same way as with any blood test. Then, using a centrifuge and a special method, platelet rich fibrin is isolated the resultant growth factors and stem cells. The whole process takes about 45 minutes. Then, using a very thin needle, the growth factors are injected the clitoris and into the upper vagina into an area most important for the sexual response, the O-Spot. Because these areas have been numbed with the anesthetic cream, woman feel little or no pain.
