PRF injections
Heal and improve function anywhere on the face or body.
PRF injections improve joint mobility, thinning hair, vaginal function and lubrication, sexual arousal and response, erectile dysfunction, and even acne scars with your own regenerative growth factors extracted from a simple in-office blood draw.
What are PRF injections?
What are PRF injections?
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is the second generation of platelet therapy. It essentially “youthifies” any place we inject it, from thinning hair to ED to painful joints to scars. Platelets are full of growth factors which turn on dormant tissues and make them function like they used to. They also attract stem cells that create brand new tissue and develop new blood vessel growth.
PRF is harvested in the same way PRP (platelet-rich plasma) was harvested: with a simple in office blood draw. Unlike PRP, PRF stays in the area injected for a number of days, allowing a better and longer-lasting result.
PRF can be used for:
- sexual rejuvenation
- erectile dysfunction
- improved bladder control
- hair loss
- osteoarthritis and joint pain
- tendinitis
- scars and skin rejuvenation

How do PRF injections work?
Once we decide the areas to inject and conditions to treat with your PRF, we draw your blood and spin it in a specialized in-office centrifuge. Within about 15 minutes, we have your own PRF. Once injected, PRF releases growth factors which turn on dormant cells and attract stem cells to grow new tissue.
Fun fact: Dr. Gustav Lo has been performing platelet injections for regenerative purposes since 2005.
When do I see results from PRF injections?
When PRF is injected for a natural and regenerative scar treatment, the results are partially visible immediately and they continue to improve for 4-6 weeks. We repeat platelet injections at 4 weeks for more improvement.
Medical studies show improvement for over a year for many conditions including scarring, osteoarthritis, and hair loss.
