Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)/ Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM) Skin and Hair Restoration

PRP, also known as platelet-rich plasma, involves injecting a concentrated solution of plasma and platelets from a person's own blood back into their body. This stimulates cell regrowth in specific areas, such as the scalp for hair regrowth, the back of the hands for repair, and the face and neck for collagen restoration using injection or microneedling.

The PRP solution, which has a higher platelet concentration than whole blood, is obtained through a blood draw and then separated from the red and white blood cells via a machine called a centrifuge. The resulting liquid is then injected back into the patient in the targeted treatment areas.

Platelet-rich fibrin matrix (PRFM) is similar to PRP, but the collected blood is mixed with calcium chloride, causing the PRP to form a more thick solution. This fibrin matrix may provide better and longer-lasting results than PRP in certain treatment areas.

The calcium chloride allows controlled fibrin polymerization- meaning the tiny fibers are making long, strong threads out of tiny building blocks. It's like building a sturdy rope by carefully putting each piece together in just the right way making a strong flexible structure that helps the body heal and grow.

This allows the the platelets to grow in the right direction, remain viable, localized, and release growth factors. Instead of just using PRP that lasts minutes to hours. The PRFM allows platelets and growth factors to last hours to days, 7 days to be exact the life of the platelet.

PRP/PRFM is a great adjunct for skin care treatments such as microneedling and Laser Facials. When applied to the skin during or after your procedure, PRP/PRFM stimulates collagen production, promotes tissue regeneration by building collagen and elastin, promotes healing, and improves skin texture and tone. This leads to rejuvenated and revitalized skin, helping to restore its youthfulness and overall health.

PRP/PRFM helps address hair loss by reducing inflammation in the treatment area. Inflammation is known to contribute to hair loss.  

PRP/PRFM also boosts circulation in the treatment area, which helps enhance new cell development. Treatments can help your hair roots create new hair. 

Your practitioner injects small volumes of PRP/PRFM in a grid-like pattern across your scalp, focusing on the areas where hair is visibly thinning. These injections take just moments and are not significantly uncomfortable. Most people don’t need topical numbing medication during treatment. 

It’s important to be patient as you move through your skin and hair restoration treatment. Your body needs time to react to PRFM treatments. Revitalizing your skin from within and new hair growth begins takes time. Expect to see improvements within a few months of treatment. Most people benefit from a series of 3-4 treatments of PRFM skin and hair restoration spread out over time.
