PRFM Hair & Skin

Regenerative, natural treatments to rejuvenate skin and treat hair loss.

  • Platelet-rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM) treatments involve injections into the skin or hair follicles. It’s a natural treatment that uses your blood plasma to rejuvenate your skin in a process that accelerates wound healing, tissue repair, and collagen production. This injectable skin treatment adds volume and stem cells to the injection area - resulting in temporary volumization and long-term thickening of skin.

    • Get Healthy And Vibrant Skin - The treatment uses your own cellular makeup to stimulate the body's natural healing process without any artificial substances or chemicals.

    • PRFM Hair Restoration - A non-surgical treatment for male or female pattern hair loss and other conditions. It works by improving blood flow to the scalp and releasing growth factors that can help stimulate hair follicles.

  • You’ll need to drink plenty of water in the week leading up to your treatment and at least 1L on the day of your treatment. Avoid smoking and alcohol 72 hours before your treatment and blood thinners for 7 days. Bring along a clean hat for hair restoration treatments.

  • After PRFM, you’ll need to avoid blood thinning agents, for at least a week, hot yoga or sauna for three days, exercise or strenuous activities for 24 hours, and washing your face for 12 hours post treatment.

FAQs

It’s important to us that you feel comfortable and clear about all elements of PRFM treatments before deciding if it’s right for you. We’ve put together answers to the questions we get most when clients are deciding if PRFM hair or skin treatments are good fit.

  • Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated solution of platelets suspended in plasma. This treatment has been widely used in sports medicine, orthopedics, and aesthetics for faster healing and tissue regeneration. Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM) enhances the benefits of traditional PRP by incorporating a fibrin matrix that keeps the growth factors in place, prolonging their release and providing more effective skin rejuvenation. Both treatments are derived from your own blood, which is collected and processed to concentrate its platelets. These platelets are rich in growth factors and proteins that play an essential role in tissue regeneration and healing. PRP and PRFM treatments offer a natural, minimally invasive approach to skin rejuvenation.

  • It works by improving blood flow to the scalp and releasing growth factors that can help stimulate hair follicles. Studies have shown it can improve hair count, thickness and density with 3-6 treatments spaced around 4 weeks apart for best results. Before beginning treatment, it is recommended to consult your primary care provider who can help determine any underlying causes of hair loss.

  • Yes! As long as your follow-up sessions happen as scheduled and appropriate skincare is used afterwards, the effects should last for quite some time. 

    For PRP, 3-6 treatments 4 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results and annual treatments for maintenance. 

    For PRFM, we recommend two treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. Maintenance is recommended ever 2 years.

  • While every person's experience may vary slightly depending on their pain tolerance level or skincare history. The team at The Face Lab use specially formulated topical numbing cream to numb the area before injecting either PRP or PRFM into the targeted region. Let us guide you through this exciting process - contact us today to learn more.

  • To start off, both PRP and PRFM are injections into the skin derived from your own blood. They use growth factors from platelets enriched in your serum to improve collagen production and help the skin look more youthful. 


    So why decide between the two? Both work to rejuvenate the skin in different ways; while PRP is better for volumizing and treating thinning hair, PRFM is great for lifting and contouring with a longer shelf life. Whichever treatment you decide upon, The Face Lab's skilled aestheticians ensure you feel comfortable and informed before starting any procedure.
