PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) both use growth factors from your own blood to stimulate hair follicles — but PRF is the more advanced option. PRF is processed at a slower spin speed, which retains more growth factors, white blood cells, and stem cells. It also contains no anticoagulants, allowing it to form a natural fibrin matrix that releases growth factors gradually over time. The result is a more concentrated treatment with longer-lasting effects than traditional PRP.
The number of PRF sessions needed depends on the severity of hair loss, as well as factors like hair thickness, density, and follicle health. On average, clients see the best results with 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every 4–6 months help sustain and build on those results over time. Your provider will recommend a personalized plan at your consultation.
Yes, PRF hair restoration is safe and well-tolerated. Because PRF is derived entirely from your own blood with no synthetic additives or anticoagulants, the risk of allergic reaction is extremely low. As with any injectable treatment, mild tenderness or swelling at the injection site is possible and typically resolves within a day or two. We recommend a consultation beforehand to confirm you are a good candidate.
