PRP And PRF Therapy
in West Palm Beach, FL
At Elysian Aesthetic and Wellness, PRP and PRF therapy uses the natural growth factors in your own blood to support skin renewal, hair vitality, and overall rejuvenation. Because the treatment comes from your body, it suits patients who want a natural approach to refreshing their appearance. Each plan is built around your goals, whether you want healthier skin texture, fuller looking hair, or support for intimate wellness. This page explains how the treatment works, what to expect, and how to decide if it fits your needs.
What Is PRP and PRF Therapy?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are concentrates made from a small sample of your own blood. The blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate platelets, which carry growth factors that signal tissue repair and collagen production. PRP is processed at a higher speed and often uses an additive to keep it liquid. PRF is spun more slowly without additives, forming a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors gradually over time.
Before & Afters
How These Platelet Treatments Are Used
Platelet concentrates can be applied to the face, under eye area, and scalp, or used as part of intimate wellness care such as the P Shot. They are frequently paired with Microneedling to improve absorption across the skin’s surface, or included in Hair Restoration plans to support thinning areas. Most patients complete a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart, followed by periodic maintenance visits.
Planning Your First Treatment
Your journey starts with a conversation about your goals, health history, and the areas you would like to address. Your provider will explain whether PRP or PRF is more suitable and how many sessions may be recommended. Staying well hydrated and eating a balanced meal before your appointment can make the blood draw more comfortable. Your care team will share any additional personalized guidance ahead of your visit.
Your Treatment Visit Step by Step
- Collecting Your Blood Sample
The visit begins with a quick blood draw from your arm, similar to a routine lab test. Only a small amount is needed to create a concentrated platelet preparation. The sample is then taken directly for processing.
- Processing the Platelet Concentrate
Your blood is placed in a centrifuge that separates platelets from red blood cells. For PRP, a faster spin produces a liquid plasma layer, while PRF uses a slower spin to form a fibrin-rich concentrate. This step takes only a few minutes.
- Preparing the Treatment Area
While your sample is processed, the treatment area is cleansed thoroughly. A topical numbing cream is often applied to keep you comfortable. Your provider will mark or map the specific zones to be treated.
- Applying the Growth Factors
The concentrate is delivered through careful injections or applied topically during Microneedling so it can reach deeper layers of the skin or scalp. Your provider adjusts placement based on your anatomy and goals. Most sessions are completed within about an hour.

Aftercare and Healing Guidance
- The First Day After Treatment
Leave the treated area undisturbed for several hours so the growth factors can stay in place. Wait until the time recommended by your provider before washing your face or hair. Most patients return to light daily activities right away.
- Skin and Scalp Care Tips
Use gentle cleansers and skip harsh exfoliants or active ingredients for a few days. Avoid heavy makeup or styling products on treated areas until your provider gives the go-ahead. Keeping the area clean supports a smooth healing period.
- Activity and Sun Protection
Hold off on intense workouts, saunas, and hot tubs for a short period after your session. Protect treated skin from direct sunlight and wear sunscreen daily. These habits help preserve the results you are building.
- Follow-Up Sessions and Maintenance
Platelet treatments work cumulatively, so attending each scheduled session matters. Your provider will review your progress at follow-up visits and fine-tune the plan as needed. Maintenance treatments help sustain improvements over time.
When You Can Expect Results
Some patients notice a subtle glow within the first couple of weeks as the skin begins to respond. Collagen remodeling continues over the following months, with more visible changes typically appearing after a series of sessions. Hair-related improvements usually take three to six months to become noticeable because of natural growth cycles. Results can last a year or longer with recommended maintenance.

Benefits of PRP and PRF Therapy
Platelet treatments encourage collagen production, which can lead to firmer, smoother skin with improved texture and tone. On the scalp, growth factors support follicle health and can increase the appearance of hair density. Because the concentrate comes from your own blood, results develop naturally and look like a refreshed version of you. Minimal downtime means most patients can continue their routines with little interruption.

Common Questions About Platelet Therapy
What is the difference between PRP and PRF?
Both come from your own blood, but they are processed differently and behave differently once applied. PRF’s slower, additive-free preparation gives it a more gradual release, which some providers prefer for areas like the under eyes, while liquid PRP spreads easily during Microneedling or scalp treatment. Your provider will recommend the option that suits your treatment area and goals.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients benefit from three to four sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart. Maintenance visits are often scheduled once or twice a year afterward. Your exact plan depends on your concerns and how your body responds.
Is the treatment comfortable?
Topical numbing cream is commonly applied before treatment to keep you comfortable. Many patients describe the experience as mild and very manageable. Your provider will check in with you throughout the session.
Can PRP or PRF be combined with Microneedling?
Yes, this pairing is a popular choice for patients focused on acne scarring, fine lines, and uneven texture. The tiny channels created during Microneedling give the growth factors a direct path into the skin, which can enhance the collagen response. Your provider can tell you whether this combination fits your plan.
How long do results last?
Longevity varies from person to person and depends on factors such as age, genetics, sun exposure, and daily skincare habits. Protecting your skin, following aftercare guidance, and keeping up with maintenance sessions all help your improvements last longer.
