PRP & PRF Treatments in Malvern, Bryn Mawr, Villanova, & Philadelphia

What are PRP and PRF Treatments?

Both PRP and PRF are autologous treatments—meaning they are derived entirely from your own blood. By isolating the growth factors and regenerative cells in your blood, these treatments stimulate collagen production, accelerate tissue repair, and promote cellular turnover.

While they are closely related, there are key differences between the two:

• Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): Blood is spun in a centrifuge at a high speed to separate the plasma and platelets from red and white blood cells. This creates a liquid serum packed with growth factors. PRP is incredibly versatile and is often combined with microneedling (sometimes known as a “Vampire Facial”) or injected directly into the scalp for hair restoration.
• Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF): Blood is spun at a lower speed, allowing some white blood cells and stem cells to remain alongside the platelets. This forms a fibrin matrix, or a gel-like substance, which releases growth factors more slowly over time. PRF is exceptional for targeted volume loss, such as under-eye hollows, and deep tissue rejuvenation.

Common Target Areas

By delivering concentrated growth factors directly where renewal is needed most, these versatile treatments trigger deep cellular repair and collagen production across several key areas:

• Facial fine lines and wrinkles
• Under-eye hollows and dark circles
• Acne scarring and uneven skin texture
• Thinning hair and hair loss (scalp)
• Neck and décolletage rejuvenation

Are You an Ideal Candidate for PRP or PRF Treatments?

PRP and PRF treatments are ideal for men and women seeking natural aesthetic restoration without synthetic fillers or extensive downtime. You may be an ideal candidate if you:

• Want to harness your body’s own biological growth factors rather than synthetic products or dermal fillers.
• Wish to soften fine lines, improve under-eye dark circles and hollows, or smooth uneven skin texture.
• Seek a non-surgical solution to reactivate dormant hair follicles and improve scalp hair density.
• Need a minimally invasive treatment that allows you to return to daily activities almost immediately.
• Are in good health with realistic expectations for gradual collagen production and cellular repair over several weeks.

Patients with active skin infections, severe blood disorders, low platelet counts, or certain chronic conditions may require alternative non-surgical treatments.

Your Treatment: What to Expect

A small blood sample is collected through a routine draw in our medical spa suite and placed into a specialized centrifuge, using precise spin parameters to isolate concentrated platelet-rich plasma or fibrin matrix packed with active growth factors. Your provider then skillfully applies or injects this potent serum, targeting areas like under-eye hollows and the scalp directly or pairing it with microneedling for deep facial rejuvenation.

Because the treatment relies on your own biological material, recovery involves minimal downtime with only mild redness or slight swelling lasting 24 to 48 hours.

Recovery and Results After PRP & PRF Treatments

Because PRP and PRF leverage your body’s own natural healing process, recovery requires zero downtime and carries almost no risk of adverse reactions. Expect slight swelling or faint redness to clear within a day or two, during which you simply avoid direct sun, heavy exercise, and active skincare ingredients.

Skin vitality emerges within a week, followed by progressive cellular repair that restores lost volume and refines skin texture over 3 to 6 weeks. Reduced hair shedding and new follicle growth take hold around months 3 to 6, creating striking, long-term restorative results that last well over a year.

PRP & PRF Treatments Cost in Philadelphia
