Understanding the Benefits of PRFM Treatments

December 4, 2023

If you’ve been considering cosmetic treatments to help reduce aging and improve skin tone, one option you might be unfamiliar with is Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM). PRFM is an entirely natural treatment that uses your body’s own cells to achieve desirable results. It has been used to treat everything from chronic wounds to hair loss, but it is also gaining traction as a way to slow down the effects of aging on the face. Read on to learn more about why PRFM might be right for you.

What exactly is PRFM?
PRFM involves taking a sample of your blood – just like would happen during a routine checkup at the doctor. The sample is then placed in a centrifuge, separating and isolating different components so that only specific cells (platelets) remain. These platelet-rich cells are propelled into a solution that triggers them to release growth factors – proteins within the platelet cell that fight inflammation and improve circulation. Once the PRFM solution is obtained, it can be injected directly into the area being treated in order to stimulate collagen production, increase hydration levels, and promote the healing of damaged tissue.

The Benefits of PRFM Treatments
The most notable benefit of opting for Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix treatments (PRFM) over other facial rejuvenation options is its natural composition. Because this procedure uses your body’s cells, there’s no risk of allergic reactions or other complications associated with artificial fillers or injections. Furthermore, because its formula contains hyaluronic acid and promotes collagen production, many people find their skin looks plumper and smoother after just one session. In addition, since the process requires little downtime afterward (patients may experience some redness or swelling), it can easily fit into even the busiest schedules.

Another benefit of PRFM treatments is their long-term efficacy – depending on age and lifestyle habits, patients may see results for up to two years after their initial injection session! As well as improving overall complexion health by reducing acne scarring or discoloration from sun damage, these treatments can also help minimize wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes or mouth when combined with proper sunscreen use or creams designed for anti-aging purposes.

Finally, it should be noted that Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix treatments have been proven effective even in those suffering from severe conditions such as alopecia areata - an auto-immune disease causing hair loss - suggesting they could prove helpful in restoring not just aesthetic qualities but also underlying physical health issues!

Overall, PRMF treatments provide a unique form of cosmetic improvement while still remaining safe and efficient - making them an attractive option for anyone looking to refresh their look without going through invasive procedures or using artificial compounds foreign to their bodies!

But it doesn’t have to suffer. Here’s your Stampede Skin Survival Guide from our clinical team at That Master Nurse — complete with products we recommend and treatments that actually work. Before You Go: Your skin needs protection before the party even starts. SPF is non-negotiable. Brush-on formulas are portable and easy to reapply. Vitamin C serum offers antioxidant support and helps prevent sun damage. Hale Derma mist keeps bacteria at bay and calms redness while you're out and about. Hydration matters. Water + electrolytes help prevent dehydration and inflammation. While You’re Out: A few small habits can make a big difference. Reapply sunscreen every 2–3 hours. Use Hale Derma to manage sweat and soothe skin irritation. Keep cleansing wipes handy to remove grime or makeup if needed. Alternate drinks with water to support your skin from the inside out. After the Rodeo: Your skin is tired — treat it with kindness. Double cleanse. First to remove SPF + makeup, then to cleanse your skin. Skip harsh actives. Instead, reach for hydration and barrier repair. Vitamin C and moisturizer help calm and reset the skin overnight. Once It’s All Over: Come back to clinic for recovery support. Vivier V-Stat Advanced Repair Gel is perfect for sunburns or irritation. Chemical peels are gentle but effective for clearing congestion and brightening skin.

Skincare isn’t one-size-fits-all. What works for your best friend, your favourite influencer, or your past self might not work for your skin right now. Here’s the truth: Most people put in the effort. What they’re missing is a long-term plan tailored to their skin's unique needs. Without the right treatment order, timing, or clinical insight, even the best products and treatments can fall short.
