PRP & PRF Therapy
PRP and PRF therapy concentrate your own plasma's growth factors and return them precisely where they're needed, triggering repair, collagen production, and cellular renewal from within.
What Is PRP & PRF Therapy, And How Does It Work?
Standard PRP involves spinning blood to concentrate platelets, then re-injecting them immediately. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) takes the process further: a fibrin gel matrix (Platelet-rich fibrin - PRF) forms around the platelets during centrifugation, creating a scaffold that releases growth factors slowly and consistently over a longer period, producing a more sustained biological signal to the tissue.
Because the material is derived from your own blood, there's little to no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. The growth factors it delivers are precisely the signals that drive collagen synthesis, angiogenesis, and cellular repair in the skin.
PRP Hair Restoration, With Dr. Natalie Waller
PRP Hair Restoration uses a concentrated sample of your own blood platelets, injected into the scalp to support follicles in areas of early to moderate thinning. Because it's drawn entirely from your own biology, no synthetic ingredients are involved. A typical course is a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart, with density improving gradually over the following months.
Your appointment begins with an assessment of your scalp and goals, followed by a standard blood draw and preparation of the PRP before treatment. Hair loss patients typically notice reduced shedding first, followed by increased density and coverage over three to six months; response varies by individual and by the stage of hair loss at the time of treatment.
Is PRP & PRF Therapy Worth It For You?
PRP & PRF Therapy tends to be the ideal fit for those with:
- An interest in genuine biological improvement rather than surface-level smoothing, typically from the mid-30s onward
- Under-eye hollows, an area where hyaluronic acid filler is sometimes too heavy or too risky
- Early to moderate scalp hair thinning
- A preference to avoid synthetic injectables, or to add a regenerative layer to an existing filler or laser program
Patients with platelet disorders or active skin infections, or who are on anticoagulants, will need a clinical assessment before proceeding.
Your Treatment Experience
Treatment begins with a standard blood draw, typically 8 to 18mL depending on the protocol. The blood is centrifuged for approximately six minutes while topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area; the full preparation takes about 20 minutes.
Injection or micro-infusion is then performed using fine-gauge needles or a microneedling device, depending on the target area and depth required. The full appointment takes 45 to 60 minutes. Redness and mild swelling are expected for 12 to 24 hours afterward.

Frequently Asked Questions
Standard PRP releases growth factors immediately after injection. PRF forms a fibrin scaffold around the platelets that releases growth factors more slowly and consistently, producing a longer-lasting biological signal.
This depends on the concern being treated. Skin rejuvenation and hair restoration are typically done as a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart, confirmed at consultation.
Yes. Because the material is derived entirely from your own blood, there's no risk of allergic reaction or rejection.
Yes. PRP and PRF combine synergistically with microneedling and can complement an existing filler or laser program.
Reduced shedding is usually the first sign, followed by increased density and coverage over three to six months. Response varies by individual and by the stage of hair loss at the time of treatment.
