The Science of Growth Factors: How PRP & PRF Stimulate Cellular Regeneration

Your Body’s Most Powerful Healing Secret—Explained

PRP and PRF aren’t magic—they’re science in action. At Skin Heaven Aesthetics and Wellness, we help patients understand the powerful growth factors behind these treatments and how they stimulate regeneration, collagen production, and tissue repair.

What Are Growth Factors?

Growth factors are proteins found in your blood that regulate cell growth and healing. When PRP or PRF is applied to the skin or injected into tissue, these proteins activate natural repair mechanisms.

Key Growth Factors in PRP & PRF:

🔹 PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor): Stimulates cell growth and collagen formation

🔹 VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor): Promotes new blood vessel formation

🔹 TGF-β (Transforming Growth Factor Beta): Regenerates skin and connective tissue

🔹 EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor): Speeds up skin cell turnover and healing

These growth factors work synergistically to reduce inflammation, repair tissue, and rebuild collagen for firmer, smoother, more radiant skin.

What Makes PRF Unique?

PRF is spun at a lower speed than PRP, which keeps more white blood cells and fibrin—offering longer-lasting and more regenerative effects.
