For many potential clients, PRF treatment may seem like a scary procedure, but nothing could be further from the truth. PRF uses your body’s natural healing abilities to improve the look and feel of your skin and hair with minimal risk. Here are the benefits and potential side effects of PRF treatments so you can decide if PRF is right for you.

What is a PRF Treatment?

A Platelet-Rich Fibrin Treatment or PRF is a facial treatment that uses the naturally rejuvenating properties of the proteins in your blood. During the treatment, protein-rich platelets found in your blood are injected into your face. The high concentration of natural growth factors can help rejuvenate skin, reverse hair loss, and assist in the recovery process. PRF is ideal for under-eye rejuvenation, improving skin texture, and stimulating hair growth.

What are the Benefits of a PRF Treatment?

Skin Rejuvenation

PRF treatment can rejuvenate skin by improving the look and feel of your face. PRF treatment supports collagen production around the injection site. The additional protein from the platelets and the increase in collagen can smooth wrinkles and give your face a more youthful glow.

Scar and Wrinkle Reduction

The additional collagen and protein provided by PRF treatment can support cellular regeneration around scars and wrinkles on your face. PRF treatment can help smooth wrinkles and give your face a consistent tone and texture.

Under-Eye Improvement

PRF treatment is ideal for clients with dark under-eye circles. The protein-rich platelets and fibrin can brighten up the skin under your eyes and smooth out any wrinkles which can make the face look more youthful.

Restored Hair Growth

PRF treatment provides elevated levels of growth factors in your hair follicles. This can promote hair growth in bald spots and thinning patches.

What are the Risks of PRF Treatment?

Bruising and Swelling

Most clients report slight bruising and swelling at injection sites. Bruising and swelling will only last from a few hours to a few days after treatment.

Infection

While very unlikely, infection at the injection sites is a possibility when receiving PRF treatment.

Nerve Damage

Just like any injection, PRF treatment has the potential to cause nerve damage if a nerve is severed by the needle. However, this is extremely rare.

Allergic Reaction

Although extremely unlikely, some clients have reported having allergic reactions to PRF treatment. Since PRF uses natural material from your own body, an allergic reaction is very unlikely.
