    TLDR Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a safe, effective tool for tissue regeneration and healing in various medical fields.
    Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is an autologous blood product rich in platelets, leukocytes, growth factors, and fibrin matrix, obtained through a simple centrifugation process. It has significant regenerative potential and is used in various medical fields, including dentistry, orthopedics, and dermatology. In dentistry, PRF aids in bone grafting, tissue regeneration, and wound healing. In orthopedics, it accelerates tissue repair and reduces pain in musculoskeletal disorders. Dermatologists use PRF for facial rejuvenation, wound healing, and hair restoration. PRF is safe, effective, and minimally invasive, making it a promising tool in regenerative medicine with potential applications in tissue engineering, chronic wound management, and sports medicine.
