In the search for the ideal treatment, more and more people are looking into alternative options instead of synthetic curatives. While the latter can help as well, men and women with skin sensitivities or seeking long-term results prefer the former. PRP has been a popular choice for hair restoration for a long time, but there’s another option that even celebs swear by: PRFM regenerative medicine.

But how exactly does PRFM work, and why has it become so viral in the past couple of years? How do people make the most of it to obtain the youthful, beautiful celeb glow? This blog will offer some insight and show you why this procedure should be next on your list. 

What Exactly Are PRFM Treatments?

Platelet-rich fibrin matrix (PRFM) treatments represent a revolutionary alternative to PRP and Hyaluronic Acid Filler treatments and were designed for long-term anti-aging effects. This procedure involves drawing blood and passing it through a centrifuge, separating the platelets and growth factors from the other compounds. 

What makes it different from PRP is that it features a fibrin matrix. This creates a scaffold that permits a slower release of growth factors. As such, patients are able to enjoy longer skin renewal time and overall better results. As a bonus, the procedure only uses your blood most of the time, which means there should be no risk of allergies. 

How PRFM Treatments are Used

PRFM treatments are a versatile solution and can be used in different ways, depending on your purpose. For example, celebs often use it in combination with microneedling treatments, as it speeds up the healing process and boosts collagen. 

The PRFM treatment is most of the time administered through an injection, as a bio-filler. It’s a good solution for addressing areas with sensitive skin, such as the hollows under the eyes or facial lines. That said, it can also be applied topically after procedures that create micro-injuries in the skin.

How PRFM Gives You Youthful Skin

PRFM stimulates the body’s natural ability to heal and rejuvenate by introducing growth factors in the epidermal and dermal tissue. This offers both immediate and long-term results, such as: 

• 1. Reduced Skin Sagging

PRFM can trigger the natural production of collagen and elastin, which are proteins that give the skin its structure. After the treatment, most patients notice that the skin tightens especially when used in the eyebrow, cheek, and jawline areas. 

• 2. Reduction of Fine Lines and Wrinkles

The same process that reduces skin sagging also softens wrinkles and fine lines, making them less noticeable. As the skin becomes tighter, it’s less likely to crease, making the treatment particularly helpful if you have nasolabial folds. The new production of collagen also fills out the wrinkles and regenerates the skin, smoothing it and making you appear more youthful.

• 3. Improved Skin Glow and Tone

The growth factors within the PRFM injections encourage the formation of new skin cells. The body starts shedding the damaged ones at the top to make way for the new ones to come to the surface. This reduces dullness while improving your overall skin quality, helping you look more radiant. 

Plus, the skin renewal process removes the damaged cells with excess melanin, improving your skin tone in the long run.

• 4. Reduced Acne Scars and Discoloration

Acne scars frequently happen when the skin does not heal properly after an acne breakout. Pits have likely formed in the aftermath, with the occasional discoloration to mark the spot. 

PRFM procedures help fill those pits in through the new collagen production, and the skin renewal fades the telltale discoloration. Moreover, the new collagen reduces the size of your pores, improving the overall skin texture.
