Hair Restoration With Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)

Men and women seeking a minimally invasive hair loss treatment in Vero Beach can get excellent hair restoration results using platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). A therapy offered at White Orchid Spa, PRF stimulates new hair growth more effectively than platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments for hair loss.  

People experiencing hair loss who want an alternative to hair transplant surgery travel from Melbourne, Port St. Lucie, Sebastian, and surrounding areas to get the benefits of PRF hair restoration therapy in our relaxing Vero Beach medical spa. Our nurse practitioners provide excellent care to our med spa guests.  

What Is platelet-rich fibrin? 

Many people are familiar with the benefits of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), but PRF remains less well known. Simply put, platelet-rich fibrin is a more potent form of PRP that has a higher concentration of platelets, white blood cells, and stem cells. Like PRP, platelet-rich fibrin is collected from the blood and contains growth factors that stimulate hair follicles in areas of hair loss. We also use PRF therapy at White Orchid Spa for facial rejuvenation.

What causes hair loss?  

The average person has about 100,000 hairs on their head and loses about 100 of them every day. What distinguishes people who experience visible hair loss is when hair doesn’t grow back at the same rate. And even though thinning hair is often associated with men, about 40% of women have visible hair loss by age 40, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.  

There are multiple causes for hair loss, including hormonal imbalances, stress, medications, and medical conditions. The number one cause, however, is androgenic alopecia (AGA), most commonly known as male and female pattern hair loss. Androgenic alopecia affects nearly 50 million men and 30 million women in the U.S., according to the National Institutes of Health. 

Who is a candidate for hair restoration with PRF therapy? 

Most adult women and men experiencing hair loss can benefit from PRF therapy, especially when treated during the early stages of hair loss. Our nurse practitioners will take your medical history to ensure the procedure is safe for you.  

We also offer AnteAGE® hair treatments for med spa guests who cannot produce robust platelet-rich fibrin. AnteAGE is a solution rich in growth factors and cytokines derived from bone marrow. We may recommend combining PRF therapy with AnteAGE treatments. Our nurse practitioners fully customize hair restoration treatments to meet each patient’s needs.

What happens during hair restoration with PRF therapy? 

During a PRF hair restoration treatment, a nurse practitioner collects a small amount of blood from the arm, similar to when you need blood for a lab test. Once the blood is drawn, the nurse places the collection tube into an FDA-approved centrifuge. As the blood spins in the centrifuge, platelet-rich fibrin separates from the rest of the blood.  

After numbing the scalp with a local anesthetic, the prepared PRF is then injected into the thinning areas of the scalp using very fine needles. The treatment time typically ranges from 45 minutes to an hour. No downtime is needed, but you may need to take over-the-counter pain relief medication to relieve discomfort.  

If you’re mainly concerned about a receding hairline, you can ask about microblading for hairline restoration treatments at our Brow & Lash Studio.

Treatment Planner

Our extensive menu of med spa treatments addresses a range of skin care and body contouring concerns. It’s not always easy, though, to know which procedure—or procedures—is the best option. The interactive treatment planner removes much of the guesswork. Select the condition you’re interested in treating, and you’ll see a list of possible treatment options with links to learn more.

Plan Your Treatment

How many treatments are needed? 

In most cases, a med spa guest schedules 4 PRF hair restoration therapy treatments about a month apart. Follow-up treatments once every 3 months help maintain the results during the first year; after a year, the number of treatment sessions depends on your goals.  

We also offer a take-home AnteAGE MD Home Hair Kit that includes a microneedling device to enhance the efficacy of the overall treatment. You can ask for details about the home treatment kit, including the cost, during your initial visit.
