Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are autologous injectables meaning they are prepared from a patient’s own blood. This results in the highest level of biocompatibility. Both are a concentration of platelets (a type of blood cell), which are critical for blood clotting, mitigating inflammation, and healing. PRP/PRF injections are prepared by taking anywhere from one to a few tubes of blood, which is then spun in a centrifuge and prepared for injection. The concentrated platelets release growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells your body produces, thus improving your skin tone, texture and overall appearance in the area of injection. Common treatment areas include under eyes, scalp and in combination with microneedling procedures.
PRP/PRF is a regenerative treatment that harnesses and amplifies the natural growth factors found in our blood cells. This process is used to our advantage, promoting healing and rejuvenation. For facial applications, PRP/PRF have been shown to enhance skin texture, reduce fine lines, and improve volume, especially in delicate areas such as the under-eye region. PRP/PRF can also be used for the purpose of hair restoration. Both contain growth factors that can stimulate dormant hair follicles, promoting new hair growth and improving overall hair density.
Stay well hydrated and eat a balanced meal. Contact us with any specific concerns prior to your appointment.
Our expert Nurse Injector will perform a blood draw, typically from your arm. Your blood is placed in a centrifuge, which spins at high speed to separate the platelets from other components of the blood - this usually takes 10-15 minutes.
The concentrated PRP or PRF is injected into the desired areas using a fine needle or cannula. Your Nurse Injector may administer multiple injections across the treatment area depending on your needs.
After the injections are completed, a specialized serum or dressing may be applied if necessary. Your Nurse Injector will give you post-care instructions and schedule any follow-up appointments. Typically a minimum of 3 PRP appointments are required for optimal results, so talk with your provider about desired results and next steps.
Most patients describe the procedure as minimally uncomfortable. The injections may cause some slight stinging sensation, but a topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand to enhance your comfort level during the treatment.
The entire process, from blood draw to the actual injections, typically takes about 45 to 60 minutes. The injection itself generally takes only a few minutes.
Post-procedure, you may experience some mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites. This usually subsides within a few days. Most patients are able to resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment.
Results can vary from person to person, but many patients notice an improvement in their skin’s appearance within a few weeks. The benefits of PRP therapy can last anywhere from 6 months to over a year. Maintenance treatments may be recommended for optimal results.
Many patients begin with a series of 1 to 3 treatments spaced several weeks apart, depending on individual goals and skin condition. After the initial series, maintenance treatments are often recommended every 6 to 12 months.
