PRP vs. PRF: What’s the Difference?

Understanding the Best Regenerative Therapy for Your Skin and Hair


Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) are two of the most sought-after natural regenerative treatments in aesthetics today. But how do they compare, and which one is right for you? At Skin Heaven Aesthetics and Wellness, our expert providers specialize in both PRP and PRF therapies, helping patients in Orange County and Beverly Hills achieve stunning, natural results.
