PRF Injections
Regenerative Skin and Scalp Treatments
Using Your Body’s Own Healing Biology at Four Massachusetts Locations
PRF injections, platelet-rich fibrin, are a regenerative aesthetic treatment that harnesses your body’s own healing biology to support skin rejuvenation, collagen production, and scalp health. A small blood sample is drawn, processed to concentrate the fibrin matrix and its embedded growth factors and platelets, and then injected into targeted areas, concentrating the fibrin matrix and its growth factors and platelets, which are then precisely injected into the targeted treatment areas, where regenerative signaling can improve tissue quality over time. Because platelet-rich fibrin is derived entirely from your own blood, there are no foreign substances introduced, the treatment uses your body’s natural repair mechanisms.
GFaceMD offers PRF injection treatments across all four Massachusetts locations as part of its regenerative aesthetics offering. PRF therapy is distinct from older PRP (platelet-rich plasma) techniques: the fibrin matrix releases growth factors more slowly over time, providing a more sustained regenerative stimulus to the treated tissue.
Our PRF Injection Treatments
PRF Skin Rejuvenation Injections (Available at all four locations)
Targeted PRF injections into the face, under-eye area, and neck to support collagen production, improve skin texture and vitality, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, hollowing, and crepey skin through natural regenerative activity.
PRF Scalp Injections for Hair Restoration (Available at all four locations)
PRF is injected into the scalp to support healthier follicle function, stimulate the anagen (active growth) phase, and improve density and thickness in areas affected by androgenetic alopecia and diffuse hair thinning.
Why Choose GFaceMD?
Natural, Autologous Treatment:
PRF is derived from your own blood, no synthetic additives, allergens, or foreign substances.
Sustained Growth Factor Release:
The fibrin matrix releases growth factors gradually over days to weeks — providing more sustained regenerative signaling than standard PRP.
Multi-Application Protocol:
GFaceMD uses PRF for both skin rejuvenation and scalp hair restoration — a versatile regenerative option.
Medical Oversight:
All treatments designed and supervised by licensed medical professionals.
Four Massachusetts Locations:
Boston, Wellesley, Andover, and Mashpee.

Under-Eyes:
Supports improvement in hollowing, fine lines, and skin quality beneath the orbital rim.
Face:
Promotes collagen production and overall skin texture improvement across the midface and lower face.
Scalp:
Encourages healthier follicle function in areas affected by thinning or early hair loss.
Neck:
Improves skin resilience and texture in the neck and décolleté.
What Are the Benefits of PRF Injections?
Supports natural collagen production using the body’s own regenerative biology
Promotes gradual, natural-looking improvement in skin texture and vitality
Supports healthier scalp function and hair follicle stimulation for thinning hair
Autologous, no foreign substances, minimal allergy risk
Minimal downtime, most patients return to normal activities within days
Can complement other regenerative and aesthetic treatments for comprehensive improvement
Who Is a Good Candidate for PRF Injections?
You may be a good candidate for PRF injections if you:
Want natural, gradual improvement in skin quality, texture, or under-eye hollowing
Are experiencing early to moderate androgenetic alopecia or diffuse scalp thinning
Prefer autologous (your own biology) treatments with no synthetic additives
Maintain realistic expectations, PRF produces gradual improvement over multiple sessions, not immediate dramatic change
Are in good general health and not on blood-thinning medications that may affect platelet function
Available at our Boston, Wellesley, Andover, and Mashpee locations
What to Expect at Your Appointment
1
Consultation:
Skin condition, scalp concerns, treatment history, and regenerative goals reviewed.
2
Blood Draw:
A small blood sample is collected, comparable to a standard lab draw.
3
Processing:
The sample is centrifuged to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich fibrin matrix.
4
Injections:
PRF is injected into the targeted treatment area using fine needles. Treatment typically takes 30–60 minutes.
5
Aftercare:
Post-treatment instructions reviewed, what to expect regarding initial redness or tenderness, and how to support the regenerative process.
How to Prepare
Before Your Appointment
- Stay well hydrated in the 24 hours before your appointment, good hydration supports platelet quality
- Avoid anti-inflammatory medications (ibuprofen, aspirin) for 5–7 days before treatment if possible
- Eat a light meal before your appointment
After Your Appointment
- Avoid anti-inflammatory medications for 5–7 days after treatment, as inflammation is part of the regenerative process
- Apply broad-spectrum SPF to treated facial areas
- Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat for 24–48 hours

Frequently Asked Questions
What are PRF injections, and how do they work?
Platelet-rich fibrin is a regenerative treatment derived from your own blood. A blood sample is processed to concentrate platelets and growth factors within a fibrin matrix, which is then injected into the targeted tissue. The fibrin releases growth factors gradually over days to weeks, signaling tissue repair, collagen production, and — in scalp treatments — follicle stimulation.
How is PRF different from PRP?
PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) contains a higher concentration of platelets than PRP and forms a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors slowly over time — providing more sustained regenerative signaling. PRP is a liquid that delivers growth factors quickly but without the extended release. GFaceMD uses PRF as the preferred autologous regenerative treatment.
What conditions can PRF injections improve?
PRF injections are used for under-eye hollowing and dark circles, facial skin texture and fine lines, neck and décolleté skin quality, and scalp hair thinning (androgenetic alopecia). A consultation determines the appropriate application based on your specific concerns and anatomy.
Is there downtime after PRF treatment?
Downtime is minimal. Temporary redness, mild bruising, and tenderness at injection sites are normal and typically resolve within a few days. Most patients return to regular activities quickly following treatment.
How many PRF sessions are needed?
Most patients benefit from a series of 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for skin rejuvenation or scalp restoration. Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months help sustain results. Your provider will recommend the appropriate protocol at the consultation.
