Aging Isn’t the Problem—It’s the Collagen That Left the Chat
Let’s talk about the slow fade. One day your cheeks are perky, your under-eyes are smooth, and your skin snaps back like a trampoline. Then suddenly, it’s like gravity called in a favor and your collagen ghosted you without warning.
You didn’t change—you just started noticing that your skin wasn’t quite as bouncy, that the glow dulled a little, and that no moisturizer could quite bring back the magic.
But here’s the good news: your skin didn’t forget how to make collagen. It just needs a little encouragement. And around Leesburg, FL clients are turning to PRF injections to bring the bounce back—naturally, gently, and without anything artificial in the mix.
What Exactly Is PRF?
Great question. Let’s break it down without the science lecture.
PRF stands for Platelet-Rich Fibrin. It’s derived from your own blood, and it contains a powerhouse blend of growth factors, white blood cells, stem cells, and fibrin matrix—all of which help stimulate collagen production and tissue healing.
It’s like sending a memo to your skin: “Hey, remember what we used to do in our 20s? Let’s get back to that.”
Think of PRF as a slow-release, all-natural collagen booster. It works gradually, which means your skin improves over weeks, not hours—and the results are subtle, real, and built by you, not a lab.
PRF vs. PRP: Wait, Aren’t They the Same?
Not quite. They’re cousins, but not twins.
You may have heard of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)—popularized by “vampire facials” and athletes trying to heal faster. While PRP also uses your own blood, PRF goes a step further.
Here’s how PRF levels up:
- No anticoagulants: PRF is 100% natural and unmodified
- Slower spin, higher yield: The blood is processed at a lower speed, preserving more of the good stuff—platelets, white blood cells, and fibrin
- Longer release time: PRF forms a fibrin clot that slowly releases growth factors over 7 to 10 days, compared to PRP’s few hours
- Stronger collagen signal: That slow release gives your skin more time to react, rebuild, and regenerate
The bottom line? PRF gives your body more of what it needs, in the way it actually wants it.
How Is PRF Used in Skin Rejuvenation?
At My Wellness Studio, we use injectable PRF to stimulate collagen in areas where aging shows up early—and where traditional fillers may feel too aggressive. It’s perfect for delicate spots that need rejuvenation without bulk.
Most commonly, we treat:
1. Under-Eye Hollows
Tired eyes? Dark circles that don’t budge, even after a full night’s sleep? PRF is one of the safest and most natural options for rejuvenating the tear troughs without risking puffiness or the dreaded Tyndall effect that can happen with filler.
2. Smile Lines and Marionette Lines
Instead of stuffing these lines, PRF helps rebuild lost volume over time by waking up your fibroblasts (the cells that make collagen). The result? Softer folds, smoother skin, and a more youthful contour.
3. Cheeks and Jawline Support
PRF can be layered to add subtle structure and thickness to areas that are starting to deflate. It’s not about volume—it’s about restoration.
4. Hair Rejuvenation
Yes, PRF is also incredible for stimulating hair regrowth in thinning areas. We’re talking brows, temples, part lines—it works.
What Does a PRF Treatment Look Like?
Here’s the play-by-play:
Step 1: The Draw
We take a small amount of your blood (think a routine lab test, not a donation). It’s then spun in a special centrifuge designed specifically for PRF. The result? A golden layer of fibrin-rich goodness that we’ll inject back into your skin.
Step 2: The Injection
Using a fine needle or cannula, we inject the PRF into targeted areas. The treatment is well-tolerated, and we use numbing cream to make the process as comfortable as possible.
The whole thing takes about 45 minutes to an hour, start to finish.
Step 3: The Glow-Up
Some light swelling or redness is expected for a day or two. You might look a bit puffy (especially under the eyes) for 24–48 hours—but it’s temporary, and it’s a sign that the PRF is doing its thing.
Over the next several weeks, collagen starts rebuilding, skin thickens and smooths, and your reflection gradually looks more rested, hydrated, and alive.
How Many Sessions Do You Need?
PRF isn’t a one-and-done treatment. Think of it like sending your skin to the gym—you don’t get abs from one plank.
Most clients benefit from a series of 3 treatments, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months.
It’s slow, but it’s worth it. Because what you gain isn’t just a surface-level fix—it’s actual skin regeneration.
Is PRF Right for Everyone?
If you’re looking for a fast, dramatic plumping effect, you might prefer traditional fillers. But if you’re into natural, gradual improvement, PRF is probably your new favorite thing.
It’s especially great for:
- Clients new to injectables who want subtlety, not volume
- Mature clients dealing with thinning skin and deeper creasing
- Filler-fatigued clients who want a different, more natural approach
- Anyone looking to build long-term collagen, not just chase instant results
Because let’s be honest: skin that actually improves over time? That’s the dream.
