PRP/PRFM Injections

non-surgical procedure that stimulates circulation and promotes hair follicle activation, helping to combat hair loss due to aging or genetics.

At Pure Bliss Aesthetics, we use SELPHYL® PRFM (Platelet-rich fibrin matrix), also known as the next generation or purest form of PRP. Many PRP systems have varying results and have extensive contamination with red blood cells and white blood cells, whereas SELPHYL® removes virtually all contaminating cells. PRP is converted to PRFM through a controlled process that serves to protect and preserve platelets.

At your appointment, you can expect to get your blood drawn. The blood is then spun in a centrifuge system which separates the platelet-rich fibrin matrix from the rest of the blood. The highly concentrated platelet-rich fibrin matrix is then injected in areas of your concern, such as the face or scalp. This procedure typically lasts about 45 minutes.

Platelets are a type of cell that accelerates tissue healing. When we have an injury, the body has the capacity to heal itself by migrating the site with platelets and other components found in human blood. Research suggests that PRFM for hair loss can effectively activate growth factors in the scalp, improving blood supply to hair follicles and increasing the thickness of the hair shaft. Additionally, it can rejuvenate dormant hair follicles, stimulating them into an active growth phase for fuller, healthier hair.

For skin rejuvenation, PRFM restores volume and radiance while enhancing skin texture, improving quality, and softening fine lines and wrinkles. Common treatment areas include:

• Tear troughs helping dark under eyes and hollowness

• Deep wrinkles and fine lines, including nasolabial folds (laugh lines),
  glabella lines, and forehead lines

• Cheeks to restore volume loss

• Acne scars to improve skin texture and smoothness

• Hair regrowth to combat hair thinning and stimulate follicle activity

What are the PRFM Treatment Side Effects?

PRFM treatments are very safe. Because the process uses your own blood, there are no known side effects known to date for PRFM treatment. As with any injectable procedure, some patients may experience some mild and temporary irritation, swelling, bruising, itching, discoloration or tenderness at the injection site. In addition, you may have a bruise at your injection site where you blood was drawn. In rare cases, skin infection or reaction may occur, which is easily treated with an antibiotic or inflammatory. Please contact your provider immediately if you notice unusual discomfort, redness, warmth, or drainage.

Following the first 72 hours after treatment, you may notice a tingling sensation while the cells are being activated. This is normal and will subside.
