PRP, PRF, and Exosomes in Houston, TX
Did you know your own biology can help rejuvenate your skin, smooth fine lines, and even bring back fuller, healthier hair? PRP, PRF, and exosome therapies may sound technical, but these regenerative treatments are designed to work with your body to refresh your skin and revive your hair growth naturally. Curious which option is best for your needs?
What Are PRP, PRF, and Exosomes?
These therapies use growth factors and cell signaling to rejuvenate the skin, promote healing, and support hair restoration. Here is the breakdown of each treatment:
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, is a natural therapy that uses your own blood to restore and rejuvenate your skin and hair. This treatment involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood and then spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, which is rich in growth factors. These growth factors are then injected into targeted areas of the skin or scalp to help stimulate collagen production and healthier hair growth.
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
Platelet-rich fibrin, or PRF, is an enhanced version of PRP. Like PRP, it starts with a quick blood draw and is spun in a centrifuge, but the process is slower to preserve white blood cells and stem cells. The result is a thicker, gel-like substance, so when it is injected into the skin or scalp, it releases growth factors gradually over time. Because of this sustained release, PRF therapy delivers long-lasting benefits that reach deeper layers of tissue. This makes it highly effective at restoring lost volume and supporting hair regrowth from the follicle level.
Exosomes
Exosomes are derived from stem cells and carry growth factors, proteins, and other genetic materials. While not taken directly from the patient, these exosomes are prepared, evaluated, and tested thoroughly for efficacy. During treatment, exosomes are injected or applied topically to stimulate collagen, support cellular repair, and promote healthier skin and hair from within.
What Are the Benefits of PRP, PRF, and Exosomes?
PRP, PRF, and exosome treatments work in unique ways to promote skin and hair rejuvenation. Here is what makes these therapies so effective:
Experience rejuvenation at the cellular level—with PRP, PRF, and exosomes, you’re giving your skin or hair exactly what it needs to be restored and refreshed.
What Concerns Can Be Addressed With PRP, PRF, and Exosomes?
While the treatment that’s right for you will depend on your personal goals, PRP, PRF, and exosome therapies all address similar concerns. These treatments help stimulate collagen and elastin production to improve skin texture, elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles, and acne scars. If targeting hair concerns, these treatments can also be administered to the scalp to encourage cell growth to prevent hair loss and strengthen hair follicles.

What To Expect Before, During, and After PRP, PRF, and Exosomes
Before your treatment, you will meet with one of our experts to discuss your skin or hair goals, medical history, and which treatment option (PRP, PRF, or exosomes) is the best fit. You will learn how the process works and can ask any questions you have so that you feel the most comfortable on treatment day.
PRP/PRF
A small sample of your blood will be drawn and then spun to concentrate your body’s natural healing factors. For use with microneedling, your aesthetician will apply the PRP or PRF topically during treatment. For targeting specific areas like the undereyes or lower face, the PRP/PRF can be re-injected by our registered nurse injectors. You can expect your session to last anywhere from 30-60 minutes.
Exosomes
During treatment, exosomes will be injected or applied topically to the skin or scalp to activate repair at the cellular level. You can expect your session to last anywhere from 30-60 minutes.
You can expect recovery time to be quick and easy. Most patients experience light redness or swelling for 24-48 hours, but this should subside quickly. You can return to your daily activities immediately after your appointment.
While subtle results may be noticeable right away, optimal improvements typically develop over time as collagen production increases. Depending on your goals, our expert team may recommend additional maintenance treatments for long-term results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Anyone who is looking for a natural approach to skin or hair rejuvenation may opt for PRP, PRF, or exosome therapies. These treatments are ideal for anyone noticing early signs of aging, those who want to improve collagen production without fillers, or those struggling with hair loss or thinning.
PRP and PRF therapies begin with a blood draw using the patient’s own blood. Where they differ is how the blood is prepared. While a centrifuge is used to spin the blood in both therapies, the PRF process is slower to preserve more white blood cells and stem cells. PRP may be more ideal for surface-level improvements, while PRF is better for significant volume loss.
The number of treatments you need will depend on your concerns and goals. Generally, your provider may recommend 4-6 injectable PRP/PRF treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal, long-term results.
All treatments are considered very safe when performed by trained professionals. Because PRP and PRF use your own blood, they pose little concern for complications. Exosome therapy uses lab-developed stem cell derivatives that have been tested and evaluated for safety and efficacy.
Though results may vary depending on your skin, hair, and bodily response, most patients begin to see visible improvements within 2-3 months. Full results can last up to two years with maintenance treatments.
