PRP/PRFM Injections
PRP and PRFM injections harness your body’s natural healing power to rejuvenate the skin non-surgically. Offered at Aesthetic Avenue in La Cañada Flintridge, CA, these treatments help restore a youthful, radiant appearance by utilizing the regenerative properties of your own blood cells.
What are are PRP and PRFM Injections?
PRP and PRFM are regenerative treatments that use components from your own blood to promote healing and rejuvenation.
PRP: Platelet-Rich Plasma is derived from a small sample of your blood, which is processed to concentrate the platelets. These platelets are rich in growth factors that stimulate collagen production, tissue repair, and cellular regeneration when injected into the skin.
PRFM: Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix is an enhanced form of PRP, where the platelets are combined with fibrin, creating a matrix that acts as a scaffold for tissue regeneration. PRFM offers a longer-lasting release of growth factors, providing more sustained rejuvenation.
What are the Benefits of PRP/PRFM Injections?
- Natural Rejuvenation: PRP and PRFM use your body’s own healing agents for natural-looking results without synthetic substances.
- Boosted Collagen: These treatments enhance collagen production, leading to firmer, smoother skin with fewer wrinkles and fine lines.
- Improved Texture and Tone: PRP/PRFM injections address acne scars, uneven tone, and dullness, giving you a more vibrant complexion.
- Minimal Downtime: With little recovery time, you can quickly resume your regular activities after treatment.
- Versatile Application: These injections are effective on the face, neck, décolletage, and hands, offering comprehensive rejuvenation.

What to Expect During Your Treatment
During your PRP/PRFM treatment at Aesthetic Avenue, a small amount of blood will be drawn and processed to extract the platelet-rich plasma. For PRFM, an additional step creates a fibrin matrix. The PRP or PRFM is then injected into targeted areas. The procedure takes about 60 to 90 minutes, with mild swelling or redness typically subsiding within a day or two. Results develop gradually, with full effects visible within a few weeks as collagen production and cellular regeneration occur.
