Platelet-Rich Plasma PRFM for Hair Loss
At The IV Garden, we recognize the significant impact of hair loss on self-esteem and quality of life. Despite trying various treatments, many of our patients continue to struggle with increased shedding and hair thinning. That’s why we’re pleased to offer Selphyl™ PRFM (platelet-rich fibrin matrix) as an innovative and effective solution. PRP/PRFM therapy harnesses your body’s natural healing abilities by utilizing growth factors from your own blood to stimulate hair follicles, encouraging new hair growth and enhancing the health of existing hair. During a session, a small sample of your blood is drawn, processed to extract platelet-rich plasma, and then carefully injected into areas of the scalp affected by hair loss where it will release a variety of growth factors that stimulate hair follicles.
Then watch as your hair grows fuller over the months following treatment.

Understanding Selphyl™ PRFM


FAQs
- Am I a candidate for PRFM? PRFM therapy is most effective for individuals in the early to moderate stages of hair loss as the treatment activates dormant hair follicles to enhance natural hair growth. It is not indicated for those with advanced hair loss or complete baldness.
- How many treatments do I need? Typically, we recommend 3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart, then maintenance treatments every 4-6 months to maintain results.
- Is PRP safe? By stimulating your own hair growth, PRP delivers natural-looking results that develop gradually, aligning with your hair’s natural growth cycle. The treatment is also remarkably safe, as it uses your blood, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions or infections. Additionally, the procedure requires minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities shortly after treatment. Performed at our medical spa, PRP therapy combines effectiveness with convenience, making it an excellent option for anyone seeking to address hair loss naturally and safely. The IV Garden has many patients who have seen fantastic hair growth results from PRP.
- Is there downtime? While there is no real downtime post-procedure, we recommend the following to optimize results and limit discomfort:
- Avoid washing your hair for 24-48 hours to allow the PRFM to settle. You may gently wash the scalp with mild shampoo after 48 hours.
- Limit strenuous exercise for 48 hours
- Avoid heat treatments such as Saunas, steam rooms, or hot showers for 48 hours
