Advanced PRF Treatment
for Under-Eye Rejuvenation & Facial Volume in Burlington

PLATELET RICH FIBRIN

At Luna Med Spa, we specialize in Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), the next generation of natural, regenerative treatment for delicate areas like the under-eyes and areas requiring soft, sustained facial volume. Unlike older PRP methods, PRF creates a superior, fibrin-rich matrix that releases growth factors slowly over days and weeks, resulting in longer-lasting, more gentle rejuvenation. Performed by our Registered Nurse Injectors, PRF is your solution for improving dark circles, hollowing, and achieving a lifted, natural look without synthetic filler.

Key Treatment Areas: PRF for the Delicate Under-Eye Area

PRF is uniquely suited for treating areas where the skin is thinnest and most challenging to correct.

Under-Eye Troughs & Dark Circles

The combination of the fibrin matrix and sustained growth factors makes PRF the gold standard for non-surgical under-eye rejuvenation. We target:

  • Hollowing (Tear Trough): The immediate volume provided by the fibrin matrix softens the transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek.

  • Discoloration: The sustained release of growth factors improves skin thickness and quality, which helps mask the underlying blood vessels responsible for dark circles.

Nasolabial Folds & Facial Volume​

While PRF is gentle, it is highly effective at stimulating volume. We utilize PRF to:

  • Soften Facial Creases: Injecting PRF into nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the mouth) and marionette lines (lines from the mouth to the chin) provides natural, subtle filling and long-term collagen remodeling.

  • Improve Skin Texture: PRF injections across the cheeks and jawline improve overall skin texture, elasticity, and glow for a renewed appearance.

What Makes PRF Superior to Traditional PRP?

While both Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments harness the body's natural healing factors, the preparation and resulting composition of PRF offer distinct advantages, making it the preferred choice for sophisticated aesthetic treatments at Luna Med Spa.

The Fibrin Matrix: A Natural Scaffold

PRF preparation involves a specialized centrifuge technique that spins the blood sample at a lower speed than PRP. This process results in a crucial difference: the creation of a three-dimensional Fibrin Matrix. This natural, jelly-like scaffold traps valuable components—including platelets, white blood cells, and stem cells—within the injection site. This matrix serves two powerful functions:

  1. Sustained Release: It slowly releases growth factors over 7 to 10 days, providing a continuous, gentle biostimulation.

  2. Soft Volume: The matrix itself acts as a subtle, natural filler, immediately improving the appearance of hollowing or volume loss without the need for synthetic products.

Sustained Growth Factor Release

Unlike PRP, where most growth factors are rapidly released within the first few hours, PRF delivers a steady, prolonged release. This extended exposure to regenerative factors promotes superior collagen production, better vascularization (blood flow), and more robust skin tissue regeneration over time. This makes the results of PRF longer-lasting and more predictable, particularly in sensitive areas like the under-eye skin.

Pure and Biocompatible: No Anticoagulants

PRF is a 100% natural, additive-free treatment. The method of preparation ensures that the blood clots naturally without the use of chemical anticoagulants (like those typically required for PRP). This purity minimizes potential for irritation and ensures that only the body's natural, regenerative components are used for treatment.

Your Advanced PRF Treatment Process at Luna Med Spa

Achieving outstanding, natural rejuvenation with Platelet-Rich Fibrin requires precision, expertise, and a dedication to safety. At Luna Med Spa in Burlington, your treatment is administered by highly trained Registered Nurse Injectors who specialize in advanced injection techniques for the under-eye and facial areas. Our process is designed for optimal results and patient comfort.

The Personalized Consultation

Every PRF journey begins with a detailed, one-on-one consultation. Your Nurse Injector will thoroughly assess your facial anatomy, evaluate the areas requiring volume restoration (especially the delicate under-eye troughs), and review your medical history. We confirm that PRF is the safest and most effective solution to meet your specific aesthetic goals, or recommend a suitable combination therapy if necessary.

The Precision Procedure

The treatment involves a quick, standard blood draw. The blood is immediately processed in a specialized centrifuge to isolate the golden, fibrin-rich PRF layer. Using ultra-fine needles or, more commonly, a micro-cannula for enhanced safety, the PRF matrix is precisely injected into the target area. The use of a micro-cannula minimizes bruising and discomfort, which is particularly beneficial for the sensitive under-eye area.

Expected Results and Follow-Up

While the initial volume from the fibrin matrix is noticeable, the true, lasting results of PRF therapy emerge gradually. Full collagen remodeling and tissue regeneration typically occur over 4 to 6 weeks. To achieve the best outcome for severe hollowing or volume loss, a series of two to three treatments, spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart, is often recommended. Optional Exosome treatment is available to assist with the treatment recovery process. Your provider will discuss your customized treatment schedule during your consultation.
