How Do We Help Mother Nature Heal The Body?
I have heard this expression so many times “I don’t heal as fast as I used to!” And to be honest, if we consider this from a biological standpoint, this is usually the case. As we age, the number of important wound-healing cells (including signalling proteins, stem cells and growth factors) decrease, but they are not completely gone. With PRF technology, we can help concentrate these cells in numbers ten to one hundred times those found normally in our blood.
The process is simple. We take some blood from your arm (same as getting some blood work done), and we spin it in a centrifuge. There is no risk of immunologic rejection. PRF or Platelet Rich Fibrin is an amazing development in wound healing technology, with applications in many fields and areas of the body. Best of all, it is completely natural, as it is made from your own cells.
