How it works
PRF is created by drawing a small amount of your blood and processing it to concentrate platelets, fibrin, and growth factors that support tissue repair and collagen stimulation. PRF injections are used to improve skin quality and volume gradually by encouraging your body’s natural healing response. EZ Gel PRF is a heated-and-cooled form of PRF that creates a gel-like consistency, allowing for more structure and volume in while still delivering natural, collagen-boosting benefits.
