What is a PRP/PRFM gel filler?

PRP & PRFM Gel Filler combines platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin matrix (PRFM) with a thermal transformation process to create a smooth, natural filler made entirely from your own blood.

Unlike traditional fillers that rely on hyaluronic acid, it is 100% autologous (it comes from your own body), making it a safe and holistic option for facial rejuvenation. It is ideal for patients seeking:

  • A natural alternative to synthetic dermal fillers
  • Subtle, long-lasting volume enhancement
  • Skin rejuvenation with minimal risk of allergic reaction or rejection

How does PRP gel filler work, and what results can I expect?

After a simple blood draw, your blood is processed on-site with Selphyl® technology. The plasma is heated and cooled to form a smooth gel that is injected to restore volume, smooth fine lines and stimulate collagen. The visit usually takes about 60 minutes.

The treatment

  • Consultation: your provider discusses your goals and examines your facial structure
  • Blood draw and processing on-site
  • Precise injection with fine needles or cannulas
  • Mild swelling or redness typically resolves within 24 to 48 hours

The results

  • Natural-looking volume and smoother skin
  • Improved skin texture and elasticity
  • Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
  • Visible improvement within the first 1 to 2 weeks, with results that can persist for up to 6 to 12 months

Because it is derived from your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or adverse side effects is extremely low.

Hair restoration

Does PRP (with or without exosomes) work for thinning hair?

PRP hair restoration uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate dormant hair follicles. Adding Vitti or BENEV exosomes enhances follicle stimulation, improves scalp health and accelerates results.

Thinning hair or a receding hairline can affect more than just your appearance. These non-surgical treatments use your body’s own healing capabilities. The growth factors help to:

  • Increase blood supply to hair follicles, nourishing them for optimal growth
  • Strengthen hair roots and promote thicker, healthier strands
  • Extend the hair growth cycle, reducing excessive shedding
  • Reactivate dormant hair follicles, stimulating new hair growth

Hair restoration is ideal for thinning hair or shedding, receding hairlines, bald spots, and weak or damaged hair follicles.

What happens during a PRP hair restoration session?

We evaluate your scalp, medical history and goals, draw a sample of your blood, and inject PRP and/or exosomes into targeted areas of the scalp with a fine needle. Each session lasts about 45 to 60 minutes.

  1. ConsultationWe evaluate your scalp, medical history and goals to determine the best plan.
  2. PreparationBlood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets.
  3. TreatmentPRP and/or exosomes are injected where thinning has occurred. Topical numbing minimizes discomfort.
  4. Back to your dayMinimal to no downtime; most patients return to regular activities the same day.

A series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced about a month apart is typically recommended. Most patients begin to see visible improvements within 2 to 3 months, with continued progress over 6 to 12 months: fuller, thicker hair, reduced shedding and breakage, revitalized follicles and improved scalp health.

Can PRP be added to other skin treatments?

Yes. PRP can be infused with AQUAGOLD® micro-infusion to boost color, texture and skin lustre. See Facials, peels & skin care.

For joint pain and sports injuries, see PRP joint injections.
