PRP | PRF Regenerative Treatments NYC

PRP at Marie Hayag MD is performed within a private, board-certified dermatology practice on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. These advanced regenerative treatments use autologous blood-derived growth factors to stimulate collagen production, improve skin quality, and support hair restoration, naturally and without surgery.

Whether you are seeking PRP hair restoration, PRF under eye treatment, or non-surgical skin rejuvenation, treatments are physician-guided to ensure safety, precision, and optimal regenerative outcomes.

Physician-Guided Regenerative Aesthetic Care

Stimulate Natural Collagen Production

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) contain concentrated platelet-derived growth factors that stimulate collagen production, tissue regeneration, and cellular renewal. Results develop gradually and naturally as your body responds to biologic stimulation.

Non-Surgical, Autologous Treatment

Because PRP and PRF are derived from your own blood, there are no synthetic fillers or foreign substances involved. This autologous biologic therapy offers an extremely low risk of allergic reaction or rejection when performed by a qualified physician.

Versatile, Natural Results

PRP and PRF enhance skin texture, elasticity, and hair density by improving tissue quality, not by artificially adding volume. This makes them ideal for patients seeking subtle, natural rejuvenation.

Board-Certified PRP / PRF Expertise

At Marie Hayag MD, PRP treatments are performed under the supervision of a board-certified dermatologist. Medical oversight ensures:

Proper blood collection and sterile processing
Accurate platelet concentration
Safe injection technique
Strategic placement for facial or scalp anatomy
Reduced risk of bruising or ineffective treatment

Many medspa settings offer PRP without physician involvement. However, injection depth, processing protocols, and anatomical knowledge significantly impact outcomes, particularly for delicate areas such as the under eyes or scalp.

Every visit begins with a comprehensive consultation to evaluate:

Skin quality and collagen loss
Under-eye hollowing or crepe-y texture
Hair thinning or shedding patterns
Scalp health
Aesthetic goals and expectations

This individualized approach ensures the most appropriate regenerative treatment plan.

What Is PRP?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is created by drawing a small sample of your blood and processing it to isolate concentrated platelets. These platelets contain powerful growth factors that stimulate:

Collagen production
Tissue repair
Cellular renewal
Hair follicle stimulation

When injected into the skin or scalp, PRP supports regenerative dermatology by enhancing the body’s natural healing processes.

What Is PRF?

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a next-generation advancement of PRP. Unlike PRP, PRF is processed without anticoagulants, allowing for:

A higher concentration of platelets
A fibrin matrix structure
Slower, sustained release of growth factors

This extended release may support longer-lasting collagen stimulation and tissue regeneration. PRF is particularly popular for delicate areas such as under-eye rejuvenation.

PRP vs PRF: Which Is Right for You?

Understanding the difference between PRP and PRF is essential when choosing regenerative treatment.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

Faster release of growth factors
Often chosen for PRP hair restoration
Suitable for patients seeking earlier visible improvement
Commonly combined with microneedling

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)

Slower, sustained growth factor release
Higher platelet concentration
Frequently selected for PRF under eye treatment
May support longer collagen stimulation

At Marie Hayag MD, the decision between PRP and PRF is physician-guided and based on:

Treatment area
Desired timeline
Skin or scalp condition
Degree of hair thinning
Anatomical considerations

This level of customization distinguishes medical dermatology from high-volume aesthetic settings.

Common Areas Treated with PRP / PRF

PRP and PRF may be used to address:

Under-eye hollowing and crepe-y skin
Fine lines and early signs of aging
Acne scarring
Skin texture irregularities
Face, neck, and décolletage rejuvenation
Hair thinning and shedding
Scalp health and density improvement

A consultation determines whether PRP or PRF is most appropriate for your specific concern.

PRP Hair Restoration

PRP hair restoration works by delivering concentrated growth factors directly into the scalp to stimulate hair follicle activity and prolong the growth phase of hair.

Patients often undergo a series of 3–4 treatments spaced several weeks apart. Results develop gradually as follicle stimulation improves hair density and reduces shedding.

PRP hair restoration is most effective for:

Early to moderate hair thinning
Androgenetic alopecia
Patients seeking non-surgical options

Maintenance treatments may be recommended every 6–12 months to support ongoing results.

PRF Under Eye Treatment

The under-eye area is delicate and prone to:

Volume loss
Fine lines
Crepe-y texture
Dark shadows

PRF is often selected for under-eye rejuvenation because of its sustained growth factor release and regenerative properties. Rather than adding artificial volume, PRF improves skin quality and supports collagen remodeling over time.

Results develop gradually over several weeks as collagen production increases.

How the PRF / PRP Treatment Works

1. Personalized Consultation

A comprehensive evaluation is performed to determine candidacy and select PRP or PRF based on treatment goals.

2. Blood Collection & Processing

A small blood sample is drawn and processed to isolate concentrated platelets and growth factors essential for tissue regeneration.

3. Targeted Application

PRP or PRF is injected precisely into the treatment area or combined with microneedling, depending on the indication.

4. Natural Regenerative Response

Platelet-derived growth factors stimulate collagen production and cellular repair. Improvements typically develop over several weeks.

Your Care Begins With A Conversation

Benefits of Physician-Guided PRP / PRF

Patients choose PRP treatments for their ability to:

Improve skin texture and elasticity
Stimulate collagen naturally
Support hair follicle stimulation
Reduce the appearance of scars
Improve under-eye skin quality
Use the body’s own biologic material
Achieve subtle, natural-looking results

Results are long-lasting but not permanent. Depending on the indication, improvements may last 6–18 months, with maintenance recommended to support ongoing regeneration.

Is PRP Worth It for Hair Loss?

For patients experiencing early hair thinning, PRP hair restoration can be an effective non-surgical option. Results vary based on individual biology and severity of hair loss, but many patients see reduced shedding and improved density after a recommended treatment series.

Is PRP Safe?

Yes. Because PRP and PRF use autologous blood-derived growth factors, the risk of allergic reaction is extremely low. However, safety depends on proper sterile technique, processing protocols, and anatomical precision, which is why physician supervision is essential.
