PRF stands for Platelet-Rich Fibrin, which is a type of autologous platelet concentrate similar to PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma). PRF therapy involves collecting a small amount of the patient’s own blood, which is then centrifuged to separate the platelets and fibrin from other blood components. Unlike PRP, which typically yields a liquid plasma with concentrated platelets, PRF produces a gel-like substance rich in platelets, fibrin, and white blood cells. This fibrin matrix acts as a scaffold for tissue regeneration and wound healing. PRF therapy is generally considered safe because it uses the patient’s own blood, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or transmission of infectious diseases. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, including pain at the injection site, bruising, infection, and allergic reactions. It’s essential to discuss the potential risks and benefits of PRF therapy with a qualified healthcare provider before undergoing treatment.
