Webinar

Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF) is a personalised technology that has revolutionised the field of regenerative medicine. Its application has extended to many fields of medicine, from oral and maxillofacial surgery to dermatology, cosmetics, orthopaedic surgery and sports medicine. And more recently, optometry and ophthalmology over the last 15 years.

During this webinar Dr. Saama Sabeti, MD and Dr. Brittany Yelle, OD share their insights into managing the Endoret patient. They also discuss their personal clinical experience with Endoret demonstrating the value of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF) to the patient.
