PRF is a gradual treatment — full results take time. ⏳

⚠️ Those little dots on your nose might NOT be blackheads. 👃🏼

‼️ They could simply be sebaceous filaments — a normal part of your skin.

✅ Sebaceous filaments line the inside of your pores and help move sebum (your skin’s natural oil) to the surface. They’re especially noticeable on the nose, chin and central face where oil production tends to be higher.

🔍 How can you tell the difference?

Sebaceous filaments:
Usually small, flat and fairly uniform in size. They often look grey, beige or slightly yellow and appear in lots of pores at once.

Blackheads:
Blackheads are a type of acne called open comedones. A pore becomes clogged with sebum and dead skin cells, and when that material is exposed to air, it oxidises and becomes dark. The black colour is not dirt.

‼️ And here’s the important part:

You cannot permanently “remove” sebaceous filaments. Even if you squeeze or extract them, they naturally fill again because your skin continues producing sebum.

Instead of constantly squeezing your nose, focus on keeping them less noticeable with gentle cleansing, salicylic acid (BHA) if your skin tolerates it, appropriate moisturising and consistent skincare.

✨ Your pores don’t need to look completely empty to be healthy.

5 Weeks After Just One iPRF Session 🪄

Less sun, cooler days, and lower UV exposure make autumn and winter a popular time to plan treatments such as chemical peels and microneedling. 🍂

These treatments intentionally stimulate skin renewal, which can temporarily leave the skin more sensitive and vulnerable to UV exposure.

That’s why the darker months can make aftercare and sun avoidance easier — particularly for stronger chemical peels.

☀️ SPF 50 is still essential every day, even when it’s cloudy.

If you’ve been waiting to work on pigmentation, uneven texture, acne scarring or overall skin quality, this is a great time to start planning your treatment course.

Why PRF after a hair transplant is about more than just hair growth 🩸🌱

After a transplant, PRF isn’t only used with the aim of encouraging new growth. Its platelet-derived growth factors and fibrin matrix supports the healing environment of the scalp.

✅ PRF supports:
• Tissue repair and wound healing
• Angiogenesis — formation of new micro-blood vessels
• Recovery of the treated scalp
• Follicular environment during the healing phase
• The surrounding existing, non-transplanted hair

📌 And remember: a hair transplant relocates follicles, but it doesn’t stop ongoing hair loss in your existing native hair.

‼️ That’s why post-transplant care isn’t only about waiting for the grafts to grow — it’s also about supporting the scalp and protecting the hair you already have.
