Key Differences Between PRP and PRF

Composition:

· PRP: High concentration of platelets and growth factors.

· PRF: Contains platelets, growth factors, white blood cells, and a fibrin matrix.

 

Centrifugation Speed:

· PRP: Spun at high speeds to isolate platelets.

· PRF: Spun at lower speeds, preserving more cellular components.

 

Release of Growth Factors:

· PRP: Rapid release of growth factors upon injection.

· PRF: Sustained release of growth factors over time.

 

Structure:

· PRP: Liquid form, suitable for injections.

· PRF: Gel-like consistency due to the fibrin matrix, ideal for surgical applications and wound healing.
