What Is Pro-inflammatory Cytokines (PFC)?
Pro-inflammatory Cytokines (PFC) is a regenerative treatment that utilizes cytokines extracted and concentrated from a patient's own blood, PFC does not contain platelets but offers a higher concentration of cytokines, enhancing its anti-inflammatory and tissue repair effects.
How It Works

This concentrate is freeze-dried, allowing for storage of up to 6 months. When injected into the affected area, the cytokines promote the body self repair’s mechanism, reducing inflammation and facilitating tissue regeneration.
