PRF Injections
What are PRF Injections?
PRF stands for platelet-rich fibrin. PRF is a concentrated form of platelets and white blood cells obtained from a blood draw, and is used as an alternative to hyaluronic acid fillers. PRF injections are a form of regenerative medicine. The patient is injected with a concentration of platelets from their own blood to promote collagen and elastin production. PRF is an autologous blood concentrate, 100% natural, free of additives and chemicals, and packed with powerful cells for skin rejuvenation purposes.
At Beauty Boost Med Spa, we love using PRF injections under the eyes. The growth factors, platelets, mesenchymal stem cells, and cytokines in PRF can help repair the tissues around your eyes, leading to a smooth, rejuvenated appearance. It can be used for dark circles, acne scarring, skin texture, tear troughs, hair restoration, volume loss, and a whole lot more. It is truly “liquid gold.”
Here are just a few benefits of PRF:
- PRF creates new blood vessels in the skin, bringing in a fresh supply of nutrients to give your skin a healthy glow.
- These nutrients will also help clear away toxins, accumulated fluids, and excess pigmentation or melanin.
- PRF improves the skin’s metabolism so that dead skin cells are removed faster. You may also notice smoother skin due to unwanted fat cells burning away.
- When PRF is injected under the eyes, it repairs the collagen and elastin layer so that the skin regains elasticity. PRF allows the skin in the under-eye region to plump up and smooth the crepey skin under the eyes.
Are PRF Injections Under The Eyes Effective?
Research shows that PRF is a safe and effective way to rejuvenate the skin under the eyes. In a recent study, 20 patients were treated with PRF 3 times at monthly intervals. The patients each experienced an increase in skin volume and elasticity, and the report noted that they were satisfied with their results.
What Is The Process For PRF Treatment?
A qualified medical professional will observe the condition of your skin, ask questions about what you want to achieve, and determine the ideal number and frequency of PRF sessions. Many patients need 3-5 sessions to achieve their desired results.
Results generally last for six to twelve months, depending on your age and how well your body responds to the treatments. If you would like to maintain your PRF results, you can schedule follow-up treatments as needed.
How Does PRF Work?
The important substances in PRF are your platelets and white blood cells. They release growth factors that are collagen/elastin stimulators. By stimulating these cells, anti-aging occurs by improving texture/tone/health of the skin and by filling in fine lines/wrinkles. Because PRF creates a fibrin scaffolding, growth factors are slowly released at the site over a one week period.
How Does PRF Differ From PRP?
- PRF contains a higher concentration and better quality of platelets to secrete more growth factors for rejuvenation than PRP.
- There is no anticoagulant or synthetic additives in PRF. This enables the creation of a fibrin scaffold that will keep your growth factors active for 1 week vs. 24 hours with PRP.
- PRF contains white blood cells and mesenchymal stem cells which further aid in the role of growth factors.
- Because PRF is a concentrated form of platelets, there is no platelet poor plasma present like in PRP. Every drop of PRF that is injected or used topically has the highest concentration and level of quality possible.

Available Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments
PRP Facial w/ Microneedling
PRP with microneedling can eliminate fine lines and wrinkles, remove scars, shrink pores, and produce an overall healthier glow. During the microneedling procedure, a highly trained nurse practitioner or doctor will use tiny needles to create micro-channels and injuries, making your skin to tighten and build collagen. Injecting PRP could improve healing and decrease redness and swelling after the procedure.
PRP Hair
PRP hair restoration therapy is a three-step medical treatment that involves injecting concentrated plasma into the scalp. Many in the medical community think PRP injections trigger natural hair growth and help maintain hair by increasing the blood supply to the follicle.
