PRFM – Face

PRF will stimulate cell renewal and trigger the production of collagen and elastin, which creates a lifting and volumizing effect on the skin. This happens because once PRF is injected, the skin begins to repair and rejuvenate itself with the help of the growth factors. For most patients, PRFM provides long-lasting natural results. Current information suggests that results last at least one to two years and may last longer with proper care and a healthy lifestyle.
