Platelet-Rich Fibrin
Tired of treatments that add foreign substances to your face? Platelet-rich fibrin treatment uses your body’s own blood to rebuild collagen, smooth fine lines, and restore what time has taken. At Advanced Medical Spa & Laser Center, serving Flemington and Hillsborough, NJ, platelet-rich fibrin therapy offers a natural, biocompatible path to healthier skin and fuller hair.
What Is Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)?
PRF is a concentrated injectable made from your own blood. After a quick blood draw, your sample is centrifuged to isolate a fibrin-rich layer rich in platelets and growth factors. These are then delivered back into targeted areas to support collagen production and tissue repair with no synthetic additives.
PRF vs. PRP: What’s the difference?
Both PRF and PRP treatments come from your blood. PRF is processed without anticoagulants and spun more gently, yielding a thicker concentrate that slowly releases growth factors over time. This translates to longer-lasting activity in the treatment area.
What can PRF address?
PRF facial treatment targets fine lines, uneven tone, dullness, and acne scarring. PRF under the eyes reduces hollowness and dark circles. PRF for hair loss stimulates dormant follicles to support regrowth in thinning areas. Read our blog on restoring thinning hair to learn what to expect from a hair-focused PRF treatment plan.
PRF pairs well with microneedling, including RF microneedling, for deeper results. Browse our advanced anti-aging treatments to see how PRF fits into a broader skin care plan.
Am I a Good Candidate?
PRF therapy suits adults who want meaningful improvement without surgery or synthetic fillers. Good candidates typically have fine lines, mild volume loss, dull skin, under-eye concerns, or thinning hair. You should be in general good health and not taking blood thinners. Dr. Sinha reviews each patient individually to confirm PRF is the right fit.
What Happens During the PRF Procedure
The session begins with a small blood draw, typically from your arm. Your sample is placed in a centrifuge to separate the PRF concentrate from the rest of the blood. A topical numbing agent is applied to the targeted areas before administering the PRF injection. Depending on your goals, PRF may also be combined with microneedling for deeper delivery. The full session takes roughly 45–60 minutes with no general sedation required.

What to Expect During Recovery
PRF therapy involves minimal downtime. Most patients experience mild redness, swelling, or tenderness in the treated area for 1–3 days, a normal part of the skin’s repair response.
You can typically return to your routine the same day or the following day. Strenuous activity and direct sun exposure should be avoided for 24 to 48 hours post-treatment. Keeping the skin clean and avoiding harsh topical products in the first few days helps support optimal healing.
Benefits of Platelet-Rich Fibrin Treatment
PRF therapy offers several advantages over synthetic injectables and more invasive procedures:
- Biocompatible and natural — derived entirely from your own blood, eliminating the risk of allergic reaction or rejection
- Stimulates real collagen production — results build gradually for a natural, authentic appearance
- Minimally invasive — no surgery, no general sedation, and little to no downtime
- Versatile — works as a standalone PRF facial or pairs well with microneedling or IPL with PRP for enhanced results
- Targeted treatment — can be directed to the face, under the eyes, or the scalp, depending on your goals

Frequently Asked Questions
How many PRF sessions are needed?
Most patients benefit from 2–3 PRF procedure sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Your provider will recommend a plan based on your specific skin concerns and goals.
Is PRF treatment safe?
Yes. PRF is biocompatible because it comes entirely from your own blood, making adverse reactions very rare. The procedure is performed by trained medical professionals following strict safety protocols.
Does PRF help with hair loss?
PRF for hair loss supports follicle health and may encourage regrowth in thinning areas over a series of treatments. Learn more on our PRP hair restoration page, which outlines a closely related approach.
Is PRF better than dermal fillers?
PRF and dermal fillers serve different purposes. PRF gradually stimulates your own tissue and collagen, while fillers provide immediate volume correction. Some patients benefit from both, and our experts can help you determine which option, or combination, best fits your goals.
