The latest heating technology to extend PRF resorption

The Bio-Heat technology is an advancement and disruption in the industry to extend the resorption of PRF from 2-3 weeks to 4-6 months. This new development and protocol involve an additional heating process following centrifugation where the platelet poor plasma (PPP) layer is heated at specific temperatures to denature and reorganize albumin. This drastically extends the working resorption properties of PRF.  The Bio-Heat technology has now been extensively utilized in various fields of medicine and dentistry, including facial aesthetics.

Bio-Heat setup including bio-Heat trays

In order to utilize this new technology, a specialized heating device (Bio-HEAT, Bio-PRF) is required (Figure 1).

Bio-PRF horizontal centrifuge to process peripheral blood

The Alb-PRF is produced by collecting peripheral blood collection using 9-10 ml tubes, without adding any additives. In a first step, peripheral blood is collected and then placed in a horizontal centrifuge (Bio-PRF) at a specialized concentrated-PRF protocol (C-PRF).

Step 1: drawing PPP fraction

The C-PRF protocol allows for an upper platelet poor plasma (PPP) layer and a highly concentrated liquid PRF layer within the buffy coat region. Two to four milliliters of the initial portion of the PPP layer is then collected with a syringe.

The PPP fraction is placed in the Bio-Heat and the heating protocol initiates

 The syringes containing PPP is then inserted into a heating device (Bio-Heat) for human serum albumin denaturation plasma, to produce the albumin gel

Step 2: Extracting the buffy coat layer

Prior to extracting the buffy coat layer, the blood portions (buffy coat, liquid PRF, and red blood cells) are left at room temperature (20°C), until the Bio-Heating technology and Bio-Cooling allow for the mixing step.

The liquid C-PRF layer is then collected into a separate syringe. After a 10 minute heating period, the albumin gel is then mixed with the concentrated liquid-PRF (C-PRF) layer by utilizing a specialized luer lock connected and passing the liquids back and forth several times

The Alb-PRF can also be utilized to fabricate custom grafts utilizing a specialized designed tray to make a Bio-Graft for root coverage procedures of gingival recessions.

Bio-Heat produced Bio-Bone with strong properties

It may also be utilized to create a custom Bio-Heat membrane with incorporation of an outer ‘sticky bone’ layer to create Bio-Bone which includes an outer ‘barrier’ like membrane with a 4-6 month resorption property and an internal particulate bone layer all interconnected with living autologous cells and growth factors!
