Natural growth factor injections, or platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) injections, offer a unique approach to skin rejuvenation and hair restoration by harnessing the body’s regenerative capabilities.

Am I a candidate for natural growth factor injections?
Ideal candidates for this treatment are individuals seeking a non-surgical, natural method for hair restoration and/or achieving more refreshed, youthful-looking skin.
This treatment is especially beneficial for those experiencing signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and reduced skin elasticity. It's also suitable for individuals looking to expedite the healing process after certain cosmetic procedures, such as microneedling.
PRF injections may not be recommended for people with certain health conditions or blood disorders. A consultation with Sherisse Hill, RN, MSN, ARNP, FNP(C), at SHADe is essential to determine if this treatment is right for you.
How many PRF injection sessions will I need?
The number of natural growth factor injection sessions needed depends on your individual goals and the areas being treated. Some patients see noticeable improvement after a single session, while others may benefit from a series of two to three treatments spaced several weeks apart. Sherisse can determine the optimal treatment schedule for you during your consultation.
What can I expect during a natural growth factor treatment?
The procedure begins with a standard blood draw, similar to what you’d expect for routine blood work. We then process the blood to isolate the growth factor-rich platelets and white cells, which can then be injected.
Depending on the individual’s treatment plan, natural growth factor injections may accompany microneedling or other procedures to promote deeper penetration and maximum absorption. The entire process is designed to be minimally invasive, with patient comfort as a priority.
Is there downtime after PRF injections?
One of the major advantages of natural growth factor injections is that minimal downtime is needed. Most patients can resume their normal daily activities immediately after treatment. Some mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites may occur but typically subsides quickly.
When can I expect to see results?
The timeline for seeing results from PRF injections can vary based on the individual and the area being treated. Some patients notice an initial improvement in skin texture and tone within a few weeks. However, the most significant results are driven by increased collagen production and tissue regeneration and typically develop gradually over two to three months following the treatment.
For hair restoration, it may take several months to see noticeable hair regrowth, as the hair growth cycle takes time. Your personalized treatment plan, discussed during your consultation, will provide a more specific expectation for your individual case.
Proper aftercare, including hydration and sun protection, is crucial for optimal results and recovery. Periodic follow-up treatments may be recommended to maintain and enhance your results.
How do natural growth factor injections work?
Natural growth factor injections leverage the body’s regenerative abilities to restore skin health, enhance elasticity, and promote natural hair growth. Rather than relying on synthetic ingredients, this treatment uses platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)—a concentrated serum derived from your own blood—to stimulate cell renewal, collagen production, and tissue repair.
Can PRF injections be combined with other treatments?
Yes, Sherisse often pairs PRF injections with Rejuvapen microneedling to maximize skin rejuvenation results. The growth factors in PRF can accelerate healing and boost collagen production, enhancing the effects of microneedling.
