I-PRF Treatment in Siliguri stands for Injectable Platelet-Rich Fibrin. It’s a relatively new technique in regenerative medicine and is a variation of traditional platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy.
While PRP involves separating platelets from the blood and injecting them back into the body to promote healing, I-PRF takes it a step further by creating a fibrin matrix along with the platelets.. Here’s how I-PRF treatment typically works:

- Blood Collection: Similar to PRP therapy, the process begins with drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood.
- Centrifugation: The blood is then spun in a centrifuge to separate its components. However, in the case of i-PRF, the centrifugation process is gentler and longer compared to PRP, allowing for the separation of not just platelets but also other growth factors and white blood cells within a fibrin matrix.
- Injection: Once the i-PRF is prepared, it’s injected into the targeted area of the body, such as joints, muscles, or soft tissues. The fibrin matrix helps in the sustained release of growth factors, promoting tissue repair and regeneration over an extended period compared to PRP.
- Healing and Regeneration: The growth factors and other bioactive substances present in i-PRF stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, promoting tissue regeneration, reducing inflammation, and potentially alleviating pain.

I-PRF is used in various medical fields, including orthopedics, dentistry, dermatology, and aesthetic medicine. It’s been utilized for conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, wound healing, facial rejuvenation, and more.
While I-PRF shows promise in promoting tissue regeneration and healing, more research is needed to fully understand its efficacy compared to traditional PRP therapy and other treatment options. Additionally, as with any medical procedure, it’s essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if I-PRF is suitable for your specific condition and needs.
