Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) - Olney, MD
Faster Healing For
Superior Outcomes
What Is PRF?
Your body’s natural healing processes are truly amazing. Platelets in the blood plasma are tiny disc-shaped pieces of cell material that help form blood clots, stop bleeding, and heal wounds. Fibrin is a protein that forms a fibrous mesh to stop the flow of blood and create the first layer of protection in a wound, laying down a bed for blood vessels to form as healing progresses. It also contains growth factors that speed the healing process. White blood cells break down waste products and fight infection. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) treatment allows us to harness the power of your platelets, fibrin, and white blood cells to speed healing after surgery. PRF has revolutionized the way we approach many dental surgeries and cosmetic procedures in recent years.
How Does PRF Treatment Work?
PRF treatment commences with a small blood sample, drawn just before use, which is then separated into its components: serum, fibrin, platelets, and white and red blood cells. This blend of fibrin, white blood cells, and platelets is harnessed to create a potent healing serum applied directly to your surgical site.
Dr. Anis Tebyanian utilizes advanced medical technology to generate ample PRF from a mere 55 ccs (approximately three and a half tablespoons) of blood during outpatient surgery. This convenient on-site process eliminates past expenses associated with hospital or blood bank harvesting, offering enhanced accessibility and benefits of this remarkable healing approach.
