Restore Your Natural Hair with Platelet-Rich Fibrin
What is PRF or Platelet-Rich Fibrin?
PRF stands for platelet-rich fibrin, – a fibrin matrix that consists of growth factors, platelet cytokines, and other molecules that play a crucial role in wound healing, skin rejuvenation, and hair growth.
Platelet-rich fibrin is derived directly from the patient’s blood by spinning it rapidly in a special centrifuge. During the process, fibrins and blood platelets get separated from other blood components, creating a powerful mixture that effectively supports cell reproduction and promotes tissue regeneration.

PRF Hair Treatment vs PRP Hair Treatment: What’s the Difference?
At Body by Craft, we offer both PRF and PRP hair treatments. Similarly to PRF, PRP therapy involves injecting a blood-derived serum into the patient’s scalp. However, PRF and PRP serums are slightly different in composition:
- PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is derived by isolating platelets from a patient’s blood in a centrifuge.
- PRF, or platelet-rich fibrin, is also produced from a patient’s blood in a centrifuge. However, the process involves adding a fibrin matrix to the platelets, making the injectable material more cohesive and stable.
Both PRP and PRF hair therapy are shown to be effective treatments for hair loss, albeit they act in slightly different ways. The fibrin matrix contained in PRF serum provides support for new cell growth, while a higher concentration of platelets in PRP serum allows for the rejuvenation of existing hair follicles.
The ideal treatment for you will largely depend on your individual situation and goals. At Body by Craft, we offer both PRP and PRF hair treatments, and we would be happy to find the ideal treatment protocol for your needs.
