PRP Injections (PRF)
Conveniently located to serve NYC
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a natural, noninvasive option gaining popularity in NYC for skin rejuvenation and hair restoration. With a higher concentration of healing factors than PRP, PRF treatment promotes tissue regeneration. Learn more about PRF at Madfes Dermatology & Aesthetics Group in New York City.
What Is Platelet-Rich Fibrin?
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a natural treatment derived from your blood. During the procedure, a small amount of blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to isolate the fibrin, platelets, and white blood cells. This fibrin matrix releases growth factors slowly, promoting tissue repair and collagen production. Unlike PRP, PRF requires no additives, making it an entirely natural treatment option.
PRF can be used in a variety of aesthetic applications. When injected into the skin, it stimulates collagen production, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It’s also an excellent option for hair restoration, as it helps regenerate hair follicles and improve scalp health.
Benefits of Platelet-Rich Fibrin
PRF treatment offers several benefits:
- Natural collagen production – Helps rejuvenate the skin and restore elasticity
- Minimally invasive – No surgery, no downtime, and minimal discomfort
- Hair restoration – Encourages hair follicle regeneration and reduces thinning
- Biocompatibility – Minimal risk of allergic reactions since PRF comes from your blood
Ideal Candidates
You might be a good candidate for platelet-rich fibrin in our NYC practice if:
- You want to improve skin texture or reduce wrinkles.
- You’re dealing with hair thinning and seeking a non-surgical solution.
- You prefer natural treatments with minimal side effects.
What to Expect During the Platelet-Rich Fibrin Procedure
The PRF treatment at Madfes Dermatology & Aesthetics Group lasts about 45 minutes to an hour. A small blood sample is taken, and after processing, the PRF is injected into target areas such as the face or scalp. Because no synthetic materials are involved, PRF uses your body’s natural healing properties to stimulate regeneration.
What Happens During Recovery?
Recovery after PRF treatment is minimal. Some redness or swelling may occur at the injection sites, but these effects usually resolve within a day or two. You can return to your normal activities immediately. Results appear gradually over several weeks as your body naturally heals and regenerates.
Cost of Platelet-Rich Fibrin Treatment
The cost of platelet-rich fibrin in our NYC practice can vary depending on the treatment area and the number of sessions required. Multiple sessions are recommended for the best results. During your consultation, Dr. Diane Madfes will provide a detailed treatment plan and cost estimate.
