PRP vs PRF: Dr. Rapaport Explains the Difference for Hair & Under-Eye Rejuvenation

[00:00:00]Not all PRP's are created equal.

[00:00:03]We use different types of PRP for different indications.

[00:00:08]For the hair, we will use a straight standard PRP. Looking for biostimulation in the cheeks or underneath the eyes, we'll use a PRFM, which is a matrix of PRP and it tends to allow the PRP growth factors and cytokines to release slower acting as a biostimulatory process.

[00:00:38]The PRP that we use for the hair, we inject subdermally. That's an injection technique I developed and allow it to percolate up to the base of the hair follicle at the bulb and to the stem cells.

[00:00:51]So, not all PRP's created equal. Use your PRFM for biostimulation and for under the eyes for dark circles. Use your PRP for hair and other things on the face topically.

[00:01:07]Take care.
