What Is PRF and How Is It Different from PRP?
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation platelet concentrate and the most advanced form of autologous (derived from your own blood) regenerative therapy available in aesthetic medicine today. It is an evolution of the better-known PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) technology, with several significant clinical advantages.
Key Differences Between PRF and PRP:
- No anticoagulants: PRP processing adds anticoagulants (like sodium citrate) to prevent clotting. PRF uses no additives - it is a 100% natural product from your blood
- Higher platelet and growth factor concentration: The gentler, lower-speed centrifugation used for PRF preserves a higher percentage of platelets, leukocytes, and growth factors
- Fibrin scaffold: When no anticoagulant is added, the fibrin in the blood forms a natural three-dimensional matrix - a scaffold that holds growth factors and releases them slowly over days to weeks, versus the rapid dispersal of liquid PRP
- Sustained release: The fibrin scaffold's slow growth factor release produces a more sustained and progressive regenerative effect
Growth Factors in PRF:
- PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor) - stimulates cell proliferation and collagen synthesis
- TGF-β (Transforming Growth Factor Beta) - promotes tissue remodeling and new collagen formation
- VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) - stimulates new blood vessel formation and nutrient delivery
EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) - promotes cellular repair and surface skin renewal
What PRF Therapy Treats at TOCC Aesthetics
- Under-eye hollows and tear trough shadows - PRF injected into the tear trough restores volume and reduces the shadowed appearance caused by fat pad loss
- Facial volume loss - PRF provides natural-looking volumization in areas of deflation
- Fine lines and skin quality - growth factors stimulate collagen and improve overall skin texture
- Hair thinning - PRF injected into the scalp stimulates dormant hair follicles and supports hair density
- Combined with microneedling - PRF applied during microneedling penetrates deeply through micro-channels for amplified skin renewal

Your PRF Therapy Appointment at TOCC Aesthetics, Step by Step
Every treatment at TOCC Aesthetics follows a careful, patient-centered process. Here is exactly what to expect:
- Consultation: Tiffany assesses your concerns and treatment goals to determine the appropriate use of PRF - standalone injection, combined with microneedling, or scalp treatment.
- Blood Draw: A small amount of blood (10–20mL) is drawn, similar to a routine lab test. No additives are used.
- Centrifugation: The blood is spun at a specific speed and duration to separate the PRF layer. This takes approximately 12 minutes.
- PRF Preparation: The PRF layer is carefully extracted and either activated for injection or kept as a liquid for topical application during microneedling.
- Treatment: PRF is injected into the target areas using a fine cannula or needle, or applied topically during microneedling. The procedure is well-tolerated with topical numbing.
- Post-Treatment: Mild swelling at injection sites is normal and resolves within 24 to 48 hours. Tiffany provides specific aftercare instructions.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many PRF Therapy sessions do I need?
For under-eye and facial volume applications, a series of 2 to 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is typically recommended. Results build progressively over weeks as collagen forms and tissue remodels. Maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months are recommended.
Is PRF Therapy painful?
The blood draw is the same as a routine lab test - a mild pinch. Topical numbing cream is applied before injection to minimize discomfort. Most patients tolerate the procedure well and rate discomfort as 2 to 3 out of 10.
Can PRF be used for hair loss?
Yes - scalp PRF injections stimulate dormant hair follicles and have been shown to improve hair density and thickness in patients with androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss). Dr. Tiffany Jarrett will assess your hair loss pattern at consultation to determine candidacy.
What is the difference between PRF and fillers?
Fillers provide immediate volumization using hyaluronic acid or other synthetic materials. PRF provides a more gradual, natural-looking improvement by stimulating your own collagen and tissue growth. PRF does not provide the same degree of immediate volume as fillers, but it regenerates tissue over time rather than adding a foreign substance. Many patients use both in a complementary protocol.
