PRP & PRF Treatments in Nashville, TN
Natural Regeneration. Subtle, Balanced Results.
At ONYX Wellness & Aesthetics in Nashville, TN, we offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) treatments, including PRF Gel, as part of a personalized approach to natural skin rejuvenation. These regenerative treatments use your body’s own biological components to support collagen activity, improve skin quality, and restore a more balanced, refreshed appearance. Each treatment plan is carefully tailored to your skin concerns, facial structure, and aesthetic goals.
PRP vs. PRF: What's the Difference?
PRP and PRF are both derived from a small sample of your own blood, but they differ in how they are processed and how they work in the skin.
PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is prepared by separating plasma and platelets from a blood sample. This concentrated serum is rich in growth factors that support tissue repair and collagen stimulation. PRP has been used in medical and aesthetic settings for many years and remains a trusted option for natural skin rejuvenation and platelet-rich plasma facial rejuvenation.
PRF, or Platelet-Rich Fibrin, is considered the next generation of platelet therapy. Unlike PRP, PRF does not require an anticoagulant during processing. This allows the platelets, white blood cells, and growth factors to form a natural fibrin matrix, which releases growth factors more gradually over time. This slower, sustained release may support longer-term collagen activity and skin regeneration compared to traditional PRP collagen stimulation.
Treatment Areas
Under-Eyes
Both PRP and PRF are well-suited for the delicate under-eye area. PRF under-eye injections and PRP under-eye treatment can help reduce the appearance of hollowing, dark circles, and fine lines in this sensitive region.
Nasolabial Folds / Lower Third
Lines that run from the nose toward the corners of the mouth may become more visible over time. PRP and PRF treatments can be applied to this area to help soften its appearance while maintaining natural facial expression.
Cheeks
The cheeks play an important role in overall facial balance. PRF Gel cheek volume restoration and PRP injections in the midface area may help support a more balanced and refreshed appearance.
Full Face
A full-face approach using PRP or PRF may be recommended when the goal is to support overall skin quality, tone, and texture. This comprehensive option addresses multiple areas while preserving natural facial features.

What Happens During Your Appointment?
Appointments at ONYX Wellness & Aesthetics are designed to feel calm, informative, and personalized.
Consultation
Your provider begins by discussing your concerns, evaluating your facial structure and skin condition, and determining which treatment, whether PRP or PRF, may be most appropriate for your goals.
Preparation
A small sample of blood is drawn from your arm, similar to a routine laboratory test. The blood sample is processed to isolate either PRP or PRF, depending on your treatment plan. For PRF Gel, an additional step prepares the gel consistency.
Treatment
The prepared serum or gel is carefully injected into selected areas using a precise technique that supports natural facial balance.
Aftercare
Your provider will review recovery guidance and explain what to expect as your skin responds. Most appointments take about 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between PRP and PRF?
Both are derived from your own blood but processed differently. PRF forms a natural fibrin matrix without an anticoagulant, allowing growth factors to release more gradually over time for longer-term collagen support.
What is PRF Gel and how does it differ from PRF injections?
PRF injections focus on skin quality and collagen stimulation. PRF Gel adds immediate volume support, making it better suited for areas like the under-eyes and cheeks where hollowing is a concern.
When will I notice changes?
Early improvements may appear within a few weeks, with continued collagen activity developing over several months. Multiple sessions are often recommended for optimal results.
Are these treatments safe for delicate areas?
Yes. Because PRP and PRF use your own blood, the risk of adverse reactions is minimized. Your provider will evaluate each area carefully before treatment.
How long does an appointment take?
Most appointments take about 45 to 60 minutes, including consultation, blood draw, preparation, and treatment.
Is PRP or PRF better for skin rejuvenation?
It depends on your goals. PRF offers a more sustained growth factor release, while PRP is a trusted, well-established option. Your provider will recommend the best approach during your consultation at ONYX in Nashville, TN.
Are PRP and PRF treatments available in Nashville?
Yes. ONYX Wellness & Aesthetics offers both PRP and PRF treatments, including PRF Gel, at our Nashville, TN location, serving patients throughout the surrounding area.
