The Science of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) represents the next generation of autologous blood concentrates, advancing beyond traditional Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. PRF is a completely natural treatment that utilizes your own blood to harvest a high concentration of platelets, leukocytes (white blood cells), mesenchymal stem cells, and a complex fibrin matrix.
Unlike PRP, the preparation of PRF does not involve the use of anticoagulants or biochemical additives. The blood is spun in a centrifuge at a lower speed, which preserves the integrity of the cells and allows the natural fibrinogen to convert into a three-dimensional fibrin network. This fibrin matrix is crucial to the success of the treatment, as it acts as a biological scaffold that entraps the platelets and leukocytes, allowing for a slow, sustained release of powerful growth factors over a prolonged period.
When injected into the scalp at the level of the hair follicles, the PRF matrix initiates a cascade of regenerative processes. The sustained release of growth factors awakens dormant hair follicles, pushing them from the telogen (resting) phase back into the anagen (growth) phase. Clinical studies have demonstrated that PRF therapy significantly increases hair density, hair shaft thickness, and overall hair count.
The PRF Hair Restoration Experience
At Allen Medical Aesthetics, your comfort and safety are our top priorities. The PRF Hair Restoration procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes about 45 to 60 minutes to complete.
Blood Draw
A small sample of your blood is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.
Centrifugation
The blood is immediately placed in a specialized centrifuge and spun at a low speed to separate the PRF from the red blood cells, preserving cell integrity.
Preparation
The resulting PRF, rich in platelets, white blood cells, and fibrin, is carefully extracted into a syringe.
Injection
Using a very fine needle, the PRF is meticulously injected into the targeted areas of the scalp experiencing thinning or hair loss.

Treatment Protocol and Timeline
Hair growth is a gradual process, and patience is key when undergoing regenerative therapies. For optimal results, we recommend an initial series of three to four treatment sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart.
To maintain the results, we advise scheduling maintenance sessions every six to twelve months, depending on your individual response to the treatment.
PRF therapy can be seamlessly integrated with our other hair restoration offerings, including the DE|RIVE Ultra+ system, medical-grade skincare, and wellness protocols to support overall systemic health.
You may notice a decrease in hair shedding and an improvement in scalp health. Early signs of new hair growth may begin to appear.
Visible improvements in hair density and thickness become more apparent as the follicles enter the active growth phase.
Full results are typically realized, with significantly thicker, stronger, and more vibrant hair.
Maintenance sessions every 6-12 months preserve results and continue to support follicle health.
Common Questions About PRF Hair Restoration Injections
What is the difference between PRF and PRP?
PRF is the next generation of PRP. It uses low-speed centrifugation without anticoagulants to preserve more cells (platelets, leukocytes, and stem cells) in a natural fibrin scaffold. This provides a slow, sustained release of growth factors over weeks, compared to the rapid burst seen with PRP. Clinical evidence suggests PRF produces more robust and enduring results.
How many sessions do I need?
We recommend an initial series of three to four treatment sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every six to twelve months help preserve your results. Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific pattern and degree of hair loss.
Is PRF hair restoration painful?
Most patients describe the scalp injections as mildly uncomfortable. We can apply a topical numbing agent before treatment to minimize discomfort. The blood draw is similar to a routine lab test.
When will I see results?
Hair growth is gradual. Most patients notice decreased shedding within the first 1-3 months, visible density improvements at 3-6 months, and full results at 6-12 months as follicles complete their growth cycles.
Can PRF be combined with other treatments?
Yes. PRF can be combined with our DE|RIVE Ultra+ noninvasive hair restoration system, microneedling, nutraceuticals, and other approaches for a comprehensive hair restoration protocol. Your provider will recommend the best combination for your situation.
Who is not a candidate for PRF?
PRF may not be suitable for individuals with complete baldness (where follicles are no longer active), certain blood disorders, active scalp infections, or those on blood thinners. During your consultation, our clinical team will evaluate your scalp health and medical history to determine if PRF is right for you.
