PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) Explained
- PRP: A concentrated solution derived from your blood, packed with platelets that release growth factors to accelerate healing and tissue regeneration.
- PRF: A new generation of PRP, PRF boasts a higher concentration of platelets and fibrin, creating a mesh-like structure that promotes prolonged release of healing factors.
PRP vs PRF
Both therapies offer exceptional results but differ slightly:
- PRP Injections: Ideal for targeted tissue repair and faster cellular growth.
- PRF Injections: Offers a longer duration of growth factor release for sustained rejuvenation.
The skilled team at Advanced Aesthetics will help you determine the best approach for your specific needs.

How Much Does PRP/PRF Injections Cost?
Costs vary based on your individual treatment plan. At Advanced Aesthetics, we offer personalized consultations to discuss pricing and affordable options. The price you’ll pay depends on:
- The exact type of treatment (PRP vs. PRF)
- Area(s) being treated
- Number of sessions needed
What Should I Expect from PRP/PRF Treatment?
We prioritize your comfort during your PRP/PRF treatment. A small blood sample is drawn, processed, and then strategically reintroduced to your treatment area through injections or microneedling.
How Long is the Procedure, and How Many Sessions Will I Require?
The procedure itself takes about an hour, and the recommended number of sessions varies depending on your goals. We’ll customize a plan for you at your consultation.
Are There Any Side Effects? Is It Safe?
Yes, like most medical procedures, PRP and PRF treatments do have potential side effects. However, they are generally considered very safe. Here’s a breakdown:
-
Common Side Effects
Temporary discomfort at the injection site: You might experience some soreness, swelling, redness, or bruising. These typically resolve within a few days.
Mild pain during the procedure: The needle for collecting blood and the injections themselves can cause minor discomfort. Your provider may use numbing cream or local anesthetic to minimize this.
-
Less Common Side Effects
- Infection: While rare, there’s always a slight risk of infection with any procedure involving injections. Proper sterile technique minimizes this risk.
- Nerve Injury: In rare cases, nerve injury can occur near the injection site. This may lead to temporary numbness or tingling.
- Tissue damage: There’s a minimal risk of damage to tissues surrounding the injection site.
-
Overall Safety
PRP and PRF are considered very safe procedures for a few reasons:
- Autologous: These treatments use your own blood components, significantly reducing the risk of allergic reactions or rejection.
- Minimally invasive: Unlike surgery, PRP/PRF doesn’t involve incisions or extensive healing periods.
How Long Until I See Results?
Visible improvements usually begin within weeks, with optimal results developing over several months as new collagen production is stimulated.
What is the Recovery Process Like?
The recovery process for PRP and PRF treatments is generally quick and easy with minimal downtime. Here’s what you can expect:
Immediately After Treatment
- Mild Discomfort: You might experience temporary soreness, redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. This is usually mild and should subside within a few days.
- Restrictions: Your provider might advise you to avoid strenuous exercise, hot showers, or saunas for the first 24-48 hours to minimize swelling and discomfort.
Days Following Treatment
- Gradual Improvement: Discomfort at the injection site should continue to improve. You may start to notice early signs of rejuvenation in the treated area.
- Normal Activity: Most people can return to their usual routines within a day or two of the treatment.
- Sun Protection: Be diligent about using sunscreen, as the treated area may be more sensitive to sunlight.
Weeks Following Treatment
- Progressive Results: The full benefits of PRP/PRF develop gradually over several weeks or months as your body’s natural collagen production is stimulated.
- Additional Sessions: Depending on your desired outcome, your provider might recommend a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart.
