There's something remarkable about a treatment that uses your own biology to heal and regenerate. No foreign substances, no synthetic fillers — just your body's own growth factors, concentrated and delivered exactly where your skin and hair need them most.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) are two of the most powerful regenerative treatments in aesthetic medicine, and at BeneVita Aesthetics and Wellness in Dripping Springs, TX, we use both to treat a wide range of skin and hair concerns — from facial rejuvenation and under-eye renewal to hair thinning and hair loss.

Whether you're looking for a natural approach to anti-aging, want to address hair loss without medication, or are simply drawn to treatments that work with your body rather than adding something to it — PRP and PRF deserve a serious look.

We see patients from Dripping Springs, Austin, Bee Cave, Lakeway, Westlake, and throughout the Texas Hill Country.

What Are PRP and PRF?

PRP and PRF are both derived from your own blood — making them among the safest and most biocompatible treatments available. Here's how they work:

A small amount of your blood is drawn at the beginning of your appointment — similar to a routine lab draw. That blood is then placed in a centrifuge and spun at a precise speed to separate its components. The result is a concentrated layer of platelets, growth factors, and healing proteins that is then reintroduced into the treatment area.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is the original regenerative injectable. It's spun at a higher speed to produce a liquid concentration of platelets and growth factors that can be injected directly into the skin or scalp, or applied topically post-microneedling. PRP has decades of clinical research behind it across both medical and aesthetic applications.

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is the next generation of regenerative treatment. Spun at a lower speed and without the anticoagulants used in PRP processing, PRF produces a fibrin matrix — a gel-like scaffold that releases growth factors more slowly and over a longer period of time than PRP. This slower, sustained release means PRF continues stimulating collagen and tissue repair long after the treatment is complete. PRF also contains a higher concentration of platelets, white blood cells, and stem cells than traditional PRP, making it a more potent regenerative option for many patients.

At BeneVita, we offer both and will recommend the right option based on your specific concerns and goals.

What PRP & PRF Can Treat

PRP and PRF are effective for a wide range of skin and hair concerns, including:

• Overall facial rejuvenation and skin quality

• Fine lines and early skin laxity

• Under-eye hollows, dark circles, and thinning skin

• Acne scarring and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

• Neck and décolletage skin quality

• Hair thinning and hair loss (androgenetic alopecia)

• General scalp health and hair density

• Skin tightening and firmness

• Post-treatment healing acceleration when combined with microneedling

PRP & PRF for Facial Rejuvenation

When used for facial rejuvenation, PRP and PRF work by flooding the skin with concentrated growth factors that signal cells to repair, regenerate, and produce new collagen and elastin. The results are gradual and natural — your skin doesn't look instantly different the way it might after filler, but over the weeks following treatment it becomes progressively firmer, smoother, more even in tone, and more radiant.

PRF in particular has become a favorite for full facial rejuvenation because its fibrin matrix allows it to be placed in areas that traditional filler isn't suited for — including very fine lines, crepey skin, and the delicate skin of the neck and décolletage. It can be injected directly under the skin or applied topically immediately following microneedling, when the skin's channels are open and absorption is at its maximum.

For patients who want a completely natural approach to anti-aging — no synthetic products, nothing foreign introduced into the body — PRP and PRF offer a genuinely compelling alternative or complement to traditional aesthetic treatments.

PRP & PRF for Under-Eye Rejuvenation

The under-eye area is one of the most requested and most delicate areas we treat. Thinning skin, hollowing, dark circles, and fine lines under the eyes can make you look tired and older regardless of how rested you actually are — and it's one of the areas where patients most often feel let down by skincare alone.

PRF is particularly well suited for under-eye treatment. Its gel-like consistency allows it to be placed precisely in the tear trough area to restore subtle volume, improve skin thickness, and reduce the shadowing that creates the appearance of dark circles. Because it's derived from your own blood, there's no risk of the Tyndall effect — the bluish discoloration that can occasionally occur with hyaluronic acid fillers placed in this area.

Results develop gradually over 4–8 weeks and many patients find PRF under-eye treatment to be one of the most naturally flattering improvements they've made — friends notice you look more rested without being able to pinpoint why.

PRP & PRF for Hair Restoration in Dripping Springs

Hair thinning and hair loss affect a significant number of both men and women — and for many patients it's one of the most emotionally impactful aesthetic concerns they deal with. PRP and PRF for hair restoration offer a clinically supported, natural approach to slowing hair loss and stimulating new growth without medication or surgery.

When injected into the scalp, the concentrated growth factors in PRP and PRF stimulate dormant hair follicles, increase blood supply to the follicle, and extend the active growth phase of the hair cycle. The result over a series of treatments is visibly improved hair density, reduced shedding, and in many patients — new growth in areas that had begun to thin.

PRP and PRF hair restoration works best for patients in the earlier to moderate stages of hair loss. It's not a replacement for follicles that are completely gone, but for patients who are noticing thinning, widening parts, or increased shedding, it can be a meaningful and lasting intervention.

A series of 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart is typically recommended for initial results, followed by maintenance sessions every 4–6 months. Many patients combine scalp PRP or PRF with oral or topical hair loss treatments for a comprehensive approach — Celeste can help you think through what makes sense for your specific situation.

PRP & PRF Combined With Microneedling

One of the most powerful ways to use PRP and PRF is in combination with microneedling. The microneedling creates thousands of micro-channels in the skin's surface, and when PRP or PRF is applied immediately after — while those channels are open — the growth factors penetrate far deeper than they could through intact skin alone.

This combination dramatically amplifies the results of both treatments. The microneedling stimulates collagen production mechanically while the PRP or PRF floods the skin with biological signals that accelerate and enhance that same process. For patients dealing with acne scarring, skin laxity, overall texture and tone concerns, or hair thinning, the microneedling + PRP/PRF combination is one of the most effective protocols we offer.

We also offer PRP and PRF as standalone treatments for patients who want the regenerative benefits without the additional recovery of microneedling — or who are maintaining results between microneedling series.

What to Expect at Your PRP or PRF Appointment

Your appointment begins with a small blood draw — typically from the arm, just like a routine lab visit. The blood is then placed in our centrifuge and spun to produce your PRP or PRF while we prepare the treatment area.

If you're combining with microneedling, a topical numbing cream is applied before the needling portion begins. If you're receiving injections only, we'll apply numbing cream to the treatment area as needed.

Treatment time varies by area and whether microneedling is included. A standalone PRP or PRF facial or scalp treatment typically takes 45–60 minutes. Combined microneedling sessions run slightly longer.

After treatment you can expect some redness and mild swelling that resolves within 24–48 hours. Because PRP and PRF are derived from your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is essentially zero — making this one of the safest aesthetic treatments available.

Results develop gradually over 4–8 weeks as growth factors stimulate collagen production and tissue regeneration. For hair restoration, most patients begin noticing reduced shedding and improved density at 3–4 months, with continued improvement through 6 months after their final session in the initial series.
