Restore your skin’s natural vitality with PRP and PRF injections at Northwest Beauty & Wellness. These regenerative treatments use your body’s own healing factors to improve texture, boost collagen, and reduce fine lines, dark circles, and thinning hair—naturally. It’s still you, just beautifully enhanced from the inside out.
Rejuvenate Skin Using Natural Growth Factors
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) injections are regenerative treatments that use your body’s own blood components to stimulate natural healing and rejuvenation. After a simple blood draw, your plasma is processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, which are then carefully injected into targeted areas. PRP works quickly to refresh the skin, while PRF releases healing factors more gradually for longer-lasting results. At Northwest, we use these treatments to address under-eye hollows, hair thinning, skin laxity, and more.
PRP/PRF Injections Treat:
- Under-eye hollows and dark circles
- Fine lines and crepey skin texture
- Thinning hair and early hair loss
- Acne scars and uneven skin tone
- Skin laxity and loss of volume
- Dull or tired-looking complexion
- Surgical or injury-related scars
How Do PRP/PRF Injections Work?
PRP and PRF injections harness the power of your body’s natural healing response to rejuvenate skin. A small sample of your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets—cells rich in growth factors that promote tissue repair and collagen growth. These platelets are then injected into targeted areas, where they activate your regenerative processes to improve tone, texture, and elasticity. While both treatments use similar principles, the way they are processed and how they work differ significantly.
PRP
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is spun at a higher speed, which separates the plasma quickly and yields a high concentration of platelets. When injected, PRP delivers an immediate boost of growth factors to accelerate skin renewal, increase collagen growth, and revitalize the treatment area. It’s often used for improving fine lines, acne scars, and overall skin quality, and can also be used to stimulate hair follicles for hair restoration.
PRF
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is processed more gently, allowing white blood cells, stem cells, and platelets to remain suspended in a fibrin matrix. This slow-release mechanism enables longer-lasting collagen growth and tissue regeneration, allowing the results to continue improving over time. Because PRF doesn’t use anticoagulants or additives, it’s considered a more natural approach than PRP and suitable for delicate areas like under the eyes.
Advantages of PRP/PRF Injections:
- Uses your own blood to minimize the risk of reaction
- Stimulates collagen production for firmer skin
- Improves tone, texture, and overall skin quality
- Reduces fine lines, scars, and under-eye hollowing
- Promotes natural hair regrowth in thinning areas
- Enhances healing without synthetic additives
- Gradual, long-lasting rejuvenation
- Little to no downtime after treatment
Your PRP/PRF Injection Session
During your PRP or PRF session, we begin by drawing a small vial of your blood, similar to a routine lab test. Your blood is then spun in a specialized centrifuge to separate and concentrate the healing components. Once ready, the PRP/PRF is injected into targeted areas of your skin or hair using a fine needle or cannula, depending on your goals. The entire process takes 45 to 60 minutes and is well-tolerated. There’s no downtime.
PRP/PRF Injections FAQs
How Are PRP and PRF Different?
PRP is spun at a higher speed, which separates only the platelets and plasma. It works quickly to deliver a concentrated dose of growth factors. PRF is spun at a lower speed, allowing for a more natural blend of platelets, white blood cells, and stem cells. PRF also forms a fibrin matrix, which allows for a slower but longer-lasting release of healing factors.
Are PRP/PRF Injections Safe?
Yes—because these treatments use your own blood, there’s virtually no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. They’re a natural, biocompatible way to stimulate rejuvenation from within.
Do PRP and PRF Treatments Hurt?
Most patients find these treatments very tolerable. We use a topical numbing cream and gentle techniques to ensure your comfort. At most, you may feel a slight pinch during injections.
Is There Any Downtime After Treatment?
Downtime is minimal. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising in the treated areas for a day or two, but most clients return to normal activities the same day.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
This depends on the area being treated and your goals. For skin rejuvenation or under-eye concerns, many patients begin with a series of 2 to 3 sessions, spaced approximately one month apart. For hair restoration, we often recommend 3 to 4 sessions for optimal results.
