When you look in the mirror, do under-eye circles and volume loss make you appear older than you feel? At VITAHL Medical Aesthetics in Denver, Colorado, we understand that watching your face change with age can be frustrating — especially when creams and serums aren’t delivering the results you want. Our advanced PRP and PRFMM treatments offer a natural solution, using your body’s own regenerative abilities to restore youthful volume and radiance.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a groundbreaking treatment in the field of regenerative aesthetics. It harnesses the power of growth factors found in your own blood to promote healing at a cellular level. For years, it has been popular for treating hair loss and sports injuries, but it can also be used to rejuvenate your appearance. When injected into the face or applied after another treatment — like microneedling — PRP can leave your skin looking younger, smoother and healthier.
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRFM) is similar to PRP — it is a concentrate made from your blood used in medical and aesthetic procedures. However, it contains a high number of platelets, white blood cells and fibrin — superstars when it comes to healing and tissue regeneration. It also releases growth factors over a longer period of time, making it an excellent choice for sustained repair and rejuvenation.
If you’re bothered by facial redness, an uneven texture or under-eye hollows, your body holds the secret to effective rejuvenation. With just a simple blood draw, our team can extract and utilize beneficial growth factors to help you achieve a naturally more radiant appearance.
PRP and PRFM injections offer a natural, targeted approach to facial rejuvenation. During treatment, we begin by drawing a few vials of your blood, similar to a routine blood test. These samples are then spun in a state-of-the-art centrifuge system, separating the platelets and growth factors from the other components.
The key difference between PRP and PRFM lies in the processing method. PRFM is spun at a reduced speed that preserves more growth factors. It also contains fibrin, a protein that acts as a “scaffold” and supports the sustained release of regenerative compounds. This makes PRFM particularly effective for deep facial rejuvenation.
PRP and PRFM injections can be used throughout the face to improve skin health, appearance and texture — even in delicate areas around the eyes. PRFM is one of our most popular treatments for reducing dark shadows, letting our patients ditch their under-eye concealer.

PRP and PRFM can be used on their own to restore lost volume, improve skin tone and soften the appearance of under-eye hollows, but they can also be applied after microneedling to enhance and refine your results. This powerful combination, sometimes called the “Vampire Facial,” infuses beneficial growth factors deep within the skin.

Hair loss is a common problem that affects millions of men and women. A series of PRP or PRFM injections into areas of the scalp that are experiencing thinning can effectively reverse the signs of hair loss by rejuvenating the hair follicles, increasing blood supply and enhancing hair shaft thickness.

PRP and PRFM offer natural rejuvenation for a wide variety of patients. Since these treatments use components derived from your own blood, the risk of harmful side effects or allergic reactions is drastically reduced, making it suitable for most people. It is a particularly good option for those who prefer to avoid the use of synthetic fillers or ingredients.
