WHAT IS PLATELET RICH FIBRIN (PRF)?
PRF is the most technologically advanced safest, and effective treatment for skin rejuvenation and hair loss available today.
The introduction of your body's platelets back into the face and scalp invigorates and strengthens the existing tissues to effectively and naturally regenerate lost tissues due to aging with no added chemicals or by-products.
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a natural rejuvenation method using your own body's powerful blood and growth factors.
Blood is drawn from the patient then the patient's blood platelets are spun at elevated speeds in a horizontal Bio-PRF machine to create concentrated and natural growth factors.
Platelet Rich Fibrin portion is then removed from the tube and the PRF is injected back into the damaged or aging areas of the body, it participates in a number of biological events that help stimulate revascularization of the skin, as well as improves the recruitment and production of new cells to replace old/damaged tissue. PRF can therefore be utilized effectively to rejuvenate the skin that has been damaged due to the rigors of aging and overexposure to sun and other chemical elements.
Hair Loss
Are you bothered by hair thinning or loss? Are you looking for an effective treatment to restore hair in affected areas?
Many men and women suffer from hair thinning and premature balding. Causes for hair loss differ from one person to another.
Dr. Peter Smilovits offers Platelet-rich Fibrin therapy for Hair Loss. PRF procedures involve a simple injection of your own platelets (cells in your blood) into your scalp. This is a safe and effective way to restore hair with minimal to no downtime.
What Are The Side Effects?
There are minimal to no side effects associated with PRP treatment. Some patients may experience mild pain, pinpoint bleeding, mild headache, and/or redness at the injection sites. These side effects are generally resolved within a few days of the treatment. There is no activity restriction after treatment. Patients may also shower/shampoo their hair normally 24 hours after treatment.
What Are The Results And How Many Treatments Do I Need?
Depending on the patient’s response to the treatment, PRF is typically performed once a month for the first three to four months.
After this series of treatments, a 6-12 month treatment is needed to maintain results.
Patients should start to notice fine line and wrinkle improvement in 2 weeks. More noticeable results follow after 2 months as new collagen is created by skin.
Results do vary from patient to patient and there is no guarantee that everyone will respond to treatment.
What Is The Cost Of PRF Treatments?
PRF for Skin Hair and Gum rejuvenation treatments starts at $700 per session
It is usually combined with micro-needling $350 per tx
PRF Intradermal Filler for facial volume restoration costs 1,000 per session
Blood draw yields approximately 3-4 mL of natural intradermal filler which lasts approximately 6 months
Why Is My Dentist Performing PRF?
PRF has been used for many years in Dentistry, Orthopedic surgery, Cosmetic medicine, and other medical fields.
PRF Background
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation platelet concentrate to be utilized as a scaffold containing completely natural growth factors. It follows the logical concept that by improving tissue vascularization to defects, one simultaneously improves tissue regeneration.
Advantages of adding PRF In Dental Surgery

Decreased Inflammation
Since PRF is made of your own blood, there are no potential side effects other than tenderness due to venipuncture.
