PRGF stands for “Protein Rich in Growth Factors” and is a breakthrough treatment in the field of healing that can be applied to dentistry and facial cosmetics.

PRGF in dentistry is used to greatly accelerate the healing process, leaving patients comfortable much more quickly following a surgical procedure.  Here at Portmore our clinicians also use PRGF technology for facial skin rejuvenation.

 

How Does it Work?

PRGF works by taking a small amount of blood from the patient before treatment begins. This sample is then placed in a centrifuge-spinning device, which isolates a type of protein from the sample. These proteins are used by our bodies naturally as a part of the healing process from injury, and help tissue to regenerate and wounds to repair.

With this technique, we are able to isolate, concentrate and extract growth factors, a set of proteins present in your blood that are responsible for repairing tissue naturally.

Plasma rich in growth factors enables our proteins to rejuvenate our skin, conferring a healthier appearance.

Our blood plasma contains proteins that have a biological activity to stimulate and speed up tissue regeneration. Whenever we suffer any sort of injury, we have evolved to send proteins to that area to stimulate a process that helps to repair that/those tissue affected.

The same process can be applied to the skin. As we age the revolutionary treatment can help to regenerate skin tissue, reduce wrinkles by adding real collagen to the face and steadily release nutrients and proteins into the skin over time. Thus reducing how quickly the skin ages (as well as helping to repair existing damage).

The benefits of PRGF®-Endoret® skin rejuvenation are:
Production of own Hyaluronic acid – It stimulates the natural production of hyaluronic acid by our cells themselves avoiding treatments with hyaluronic acid with bacterial or animal origin.

Increased consistency – The PRGF®-Endoret® promotes the increased secretion of collagen and elastin. This generates greater consistency, firmness and reduced sagging in the skin of the patient.

Hydration – PRGF®-Endoret® ensures a high level of skin hydration compared to levels obtained with other cosmetic treatments as it has been proven in clinical trials.

Wrinkle reduction – The filler effect got through the use of PRGF®- Endoret® technology attenuates the wrinkles in the infiltrated areas. The facial expression lines lose their depth similar to the way they do on the treatments with hyaluronic acid.

Skin luminosity – PRGF®-Endoret® makes skin recover the lost luminosity over the years. Patients that have gone through this innovative treatment achieve a higher lustre of their skin.

The effects of PRGF® are progressive and begin to be evident after 24 hours from the first application, with an increase of the smoothness and brightness of the skin with each new session.

It is recommended to receive three sessions in the first three months. Subsequently, the treatment is personalised, being usual maintenance sessions one to three per year depending on age and skin type.
