PRP vs. PRF: Which Regenerative Treatment is Right for Your Miami Glow?
In the world of medical aesthetics, there's a revolutionary trend gaining popularity for achieving a beautiful, natural Miami glow: regenerative treatments. These therapies use your body's own power to heal and rejuvenate your skin from within.
At Monaco Medspa, we specialize in two of the most effective options: Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and its advanced successor, Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF). While both deliver incredible results, there are key differences that make one a better choice for your unique aesthetic goals.
Ready to find out which treatment is right for you? Let's dive in.
What is Regenerative Aesthetics: The Basics of PRP & PRF
Both PRP and PRF are derived from a small sample of your own blood—similar to a standard blood test. This sample is spun in a specialized centrifuge to separate the blood components and isolate the powerful healing agents: platelets
and growth factors.
When these concentrated elements are reintroduced into your skin (often via injection or combined with microneedling), they signal your cells to:
Boost Collagen Production:
The essential protein for firm, youthful skin.
Improve Skin Texture and Tone:
Minimizing fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
Accelerate Healing:
For a faster, natural recovery.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma):
The Trusted Standard
PRP has been a gold standard in aesthetics for years— and is usually combined with microneedling.
How PRP Works:
Your blood is spun at a high speed with the use of a centrifuge.
This process completely separates the plasma and platelets from the red blood cells, resulting in a liquid-like plasma rich in growth factors.
Growth factors are released immediately upon injection or application.
PRP is Ideal For:
Overall Skin Rejuvenation:
A general boost in skin texture and radiance.
Microneedling Enhancement:
Deepening the results of a microneedling session and promoting collagen growth.
Hair Restoration:
Stimulating hair follicles to promote growth.
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin): The Next-Generation Natural Filler
PRF is the exciting evolution of PRP. It's quickly becoming the preferred treatment at advanced med spas like Monaco because it offers enhanced, longer-lasting benefits.
How PRF Works:
Your blood is spun at a significantly lower speed.
The slower spin keeps a higher concentration of platelets, white blood cells, and a small number of stem cells.
The absence of anticoagulants allows a Fibrin Matrix
to form. This spongy, gel-like matrix acts as a scaffolding, trapping the growth factors and releasing them slowly and continually
over a period of up to a week.
PRF is Ideal For:
Long-Lasting Results:
The slow release of growth factors provides a sustained regenerative response, often yielding results that last up to a year or more.
Delicate Areas:
It's especially effective for treating under-eye hollowness, dark circles, and fine lines around the mouth where a natural, soft filler effect is desired.
Volume Restoration:
The fibrin matrix acts as a natural, temporary filler, gently building volume and structure in areas of deflation.
