100% Natural Regeneration, Powered by Your Own Body
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is an all-natural, regenerative treatment created from a small sample of your own blood. At West Hills Dermatology, we use PRF to restore lost volume, refine skin texture, and stimulate deep collagen production — with nothing added but your body's own healing ability.
PRF contains zero additives, anticoagulants, or synthetic chemicals. It relies solely on your body's natural repair mechanisms, and because it is drawn, prepared, and administered during a single visit, nothing foreign is ever introduced to your skin.
What Makes PRF Different from PRP?
PRF is often described as the next generation of platelet-rich plasma. Both treatments begin with a simple blood draw, but the difference is in the preparation — and in how long the benefits keep working.
Traditional PRP releases its growth factors quickly, over a matter of hours. PRF is processed without additives, allowing it to form a natural fibrin matrix: a three-dimensional scaffold that holds platelets and growth factors in place at the treatment site and releases them gradually over several days. PRF also retains a higher concentration of white blood cells (leukocytes) and regenerative cells, which help fight inflammation and stimulate deeper, more sustained collagen production.
- Prepared with no anticoagulants, additives, or synthetic chemicals
- A natural fibrin scaffold extends growth factor release
- Higher retention of leukocytes and regenerative cells
- Completely autologous — derived entirely from you
- Extremely low risk of allergic reaction or rejection
What PRF Can Treat
Because PRF works by amplifying your body's own regenerative signals, it is remarkably versatile. We use it to address:
- Under-eye rejuvenation: Softening hollows and reducing the appearance of dark circles in one of the most delicate areas of the face.
- Skin texture, tone, and luminosity: Restoring a smoother surface and a healthier, more radiant complexion.
- Fine lines and skin laxity: Rebuilding collagen and increasing tissue thickness for firmer, more resilient skin.
- Microneedling with PRF: Combining collagen induction therapy with PRF for dramatically enhanced skin renewal.
- Hair restoration: Reawakening thinning areas by improving scalp circulation and strengthening the tissue around the follicle.
