PRF has been an amazing addition to our aesthetic practice! Our patients love that it is 100% natural with no additives. We love that it forms a gel and contains very high concentrations of platelets, fibrin, and white cells. We have also implemented PRF into our hair stimulation program and have seen promising early results.

Hair loss affects both men and women and is completely normal and part of the aging process. Some other factors can influence the rate that hair loss occurs, such as genetic predispositions of the person, alopecia areata, and even severe stress. Hair restoration with platelet-rich fibrin PRF and the addition of cellular matrix or a cell is a virtually painless, cutting-edge procedure that is used for patients who do not want surgery. The results are amazing.

Platelet-Rich-Fibrin (PRF) hair restoration is a new, non-surgical treatment that uses cell growth factors to regenerate and restore the inactive hair follicle through wound-healing technology. These specific growth factors are essential in tissue regeneration and healing. PRF is used in other practices as well, such as oral surgery, orthopedics, and dermatological applications.

PRF is obtained by drawing the patient’s own blood, just like it is done during a routine blood test. It is then separated using a centrifuge. While the blood is being prepared, the patient’s scalp will be numbed with a topical anesthetic cream to make the treatment virtually painless. Once the serum is isolated, it will be strategically injected into the scalp where hair loss or hair thinning has occurred. It may also be combined with Micro-Needling therapy using a micropen. When the procedure is over, the patient can leave and immediately go back to their normal daily activities.

The hair follicles treated with PRF will immediately be reinvigorated and begin to grow new hair. The hair will strengthen and thicken, but significant growth is a slower process, and results can be seen within 3-6 months.
