PRP & PRF Regenerative Treatments
PRP & PRF Regenerative Treatments
Natural Rejuvenation for Your Skin, Facial Volume, and Hair
At Akin Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer advanced PRP and PRF treatments that use a concentrated portion of your own blood to support collagen production, tissue renewal, and healthier hair growth.
PRP and PRF are versatile treatments that can be injected in liquid form, processed into a gel for natural-looking facial rejuvenation, or injected into the scalp to support thinning hair. Your provider will recommend the best preparation and treatment plan based on your individual needs and goals.
What are PRP and PRF?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma, and PRF stands for Platelet-Rich Fibrin. Both treatments begin with a small blood draw. Your blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate platelets and growth factors involved in your body’s natural healing response.
Depending on your treatment goals, PRP or PRF can be:
✔️ Injected into the skin to improve tone, texture, and collagen production
✔️ Processed into a gel for soft, natural-looking facial support
✔️ Injected into the scalp to support healthier, thicker-looking hair
Because PRP and PRF are made from your own blood, they offer a natural and highly personalized approach to rejuvenation.

FACIAL REJUVENATION
Naturally improve your skin from within
Liquid PRP or PRF can be injected into targeted areas of the face, neck, or décolletage to support collagen and elastin production. This treatment is ideal when the goal is to improve skin quality without adding significant volume.
Benefits may include:
✔️ Smoother, firmer-looking skin
✔️ Improved tone and texture
✔️ Softer fine lines
✔️ Improved under-eye skin quality
✔️ Reduced appearance of acne scars
✔️ Gradual, natural-looking results
Recommended treatment plan
Many clients benefit from a series of three treatments spaced approximately four to six weeks apart. Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan based on your skin and goals.
PRP/PRF GEL
Natural-looking facial support made from your own blood
PRP or PRF can be processed into a smooth, gel-like consistency and injected into areas experiencing mild volume loss. The gel provides soft support while delivering platelet-derived components that encourage gradual collagen remodeling.
PRP/PRF Gel does not contain traditional hyaluronic acid filler and is designed for clients who want subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation.
Common treatment areas:
✔️ Under-eye hollows and tear troughs
✔️ Cheeks and midface
✔️ Smile lines
✔️ Marionette lines
✔️ Fine lines around the mouth
✔️ Areas with mild volume loss or crepey skin
PRP/PRF Gel versus dermal filler
PRP/PRF Gel generally provides softer and less predictable volume than traditional dermal filler. Traditional filler may be more appropriate when precise contouring, structural support, or greater correction is desired.
HAIR RESTORATION
Support thicker, healthier-looking hair naturally
PRP/PRF Hair Restoration delivers concentrated platelets and growth factors directly into areas of the scalp affected by thinning or shedding.
Treatment may help support scalp health, improve the environment surrounding the hair follicles, reduce shedding, and encourage weakened follicles to produce thicker, healthier-looking hair.
Hair restoration may be appropriate for:
✔️ Genetic or pattern hair thinning
✔️ Hormonal or stress-related shedding
✔️ Thinning along the hairline
✔️ Widening of the hair part
✔️ Early-stage hair loss
✔️ Decreased hair density in men and women
Because hair loss can have several causes, your provider may also recommend evaluating thyroid function, hormones, iron and ferritin, nutrition, medications, stress, and family history.
Your provider will help you determine whether PRP/PRF Gel, dermal filler, or a combination treatment will best achieve your goals.
FAQ
What is the difference between PRP and PRF?
PRP and PRF are both prepared from your own blood and contain concentrated platelets and growth factors. They are processed differently, which affects their consistency and how they are used. Your provider will select the preparation best suited to your treatment area and goals.
Can both PRP and PRF be made into a gel?
Yes. Both PRP and PRF can be processed into a gel-like consistency for facial rejuvenation. The preparation used will depend on your individual treatment plan.
Is PRP/PRF Gel the same as dermal filler?
No. PRP/PRF Gel is made from your own blood, while most traditional fillers are made with hyaluronic acid. PRP/PRF Gel provides softer, more subtle support. Dermal filler offers more predictable volume, contouring, and structural correction.
Can PRP/PRF be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Depending on your goals, PRP/PRF may be combined with:
-
Microneedling
-
Dermal filler
-
Sculptra/Radiesse
-
Botox, Dysport, or Daxxify
-
Medical-grade skincare
-
Medical-grade supplements for at-home hair support
How many treatments will I need?
Facial rejuvenation often includes three to four treatments spaced four to six weeks apart. PRP/PRF Gel may be performed as one treatment or a series. Hair restoration generally begins with four treatments followed by individualized maintenance.
When will I see results?
Improvements in skin quality develop gradually over several weeks to months. Hair-restoration results typically take approximately three to six months to become noticeable.
Is there downtime?
Mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur. Most clients return to normal activities within one to three days, although under-eye swelling may last longer.
Who is a good candidate?
PRP/PRF may be appropriate for clients who want to improve skin texture, address mild facial volume loss, rejuvenate the under-eye area, or support thinning hair. A consultation is required to determine whether treatment is appropriate.
Are results guaranteed?
No. Results depend on your health, platelet quality, treatment area, underlying condition, and individual healing response. Results vary between clients.
