Thinning hair, scalp health issues, changes in skin texture and firmness, and under-eye skin concerns can all affect overall skin and hair vitality and appearance. These concerns can arise from a combination of intrinsic ageing, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, genetic predisposition, and environmental stressors. Over time, the body’s natural regenerative processes slow down, which may lead to reduced collagen production, diminished blood flow to the scalp, and weakening of skin and hair structures. Factors such as chronic stress, UV exposure, and lifestyle habits can further contribute to the visible signs of ageing and reduced skin and hair vitality.
PRP and PRF procedures involve utilising the patient’s own blood, which is placed into Clinical Tubes and then centrifuged. This leads to the preparation of autologous platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) and fibrin (PRF) which can then be extracted and re-injected into the patient’s target tissue.
With the protocols developed, the kit offers an optimal platelet recovery rate, platelet dose and purity:
4.4 billion platelets | 95.2% purity | 85.2% recovery rate
Platelets, also known as thrombocytes, are small, colourless cell fragments in the blood. They are primarily known for their importance in clotting blood, but interestingly contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors. To obtain platelets, blood is taken from the patient and spun in a centrifuge. This leads to the separation of PRP (from the other blood components), which contain between 5 to 9 times the platelet concentration of regular blood. Compared to PRP, PRF has a higher concentration of platelets, fibrin, stem cells and white blood cells.
Both PRP and PRF are considered safe in respects to no allergic reaction should be encountered, as it uses your own blood. However, these treatments cannot be carried out if you have a blood or bleeding disorder, or taking anti-clotting or blood thinning medications.

A consultation with a qualified Australian-registered medical practitioner is recommended to assess individual concerns and explore appropriate treatment options tailored to your unique facial profile and clinical presentation.
PRP and PRF are autologous treatments that utilise your body’s own blood components to support natural skin rejuvenation. These treatments are designed to improve skin quality by stimulating collagen production and encouraging healthy tissue regeneration. PRP and PRF are commonly used to address concerns such as dull skin, uneven texture, and signs of ageing including fine lines. As minimally invasive procedures, they are generally well tolerated, with little downtime required.
Before Treatment
• You will have a consultation with a qualified clinician to assess skin concerns and suitability for PRP and PRF treatment.
• This will involve a review of medical history and any contraindications, discussion of treatment goals and expected outcomes, explanation of the treatment and what to expect during the session.
During Treatment
• The treatment area will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, sunscreen, or oils.
• A topical numbing cream is applied and left on the skin for approximately 15 minutes to minimise discomfort during treatment.
• The area where your blood will be collected (typically the inner arm) will be carefully cleansed with an antiseptic solution prior to the draw to help minimise any risk of infection.
• Depending on the prescribed treatment, our team of certified providers will follow T-Lab’s™ Protocols to estimate how many tubes required / how much blood to collect and draw up as required.
• The treatment area is wiped again with an antiseptic solution removing the numbing cream before skin penetration to reduce the risk of infection.
• PRP or PRF is delivered by microinjections to the targeted areas using fine needles. When suitable (particularly for larger treatment areas) PRP and PRF is delivered by a multi-needle injector device, reducing treatment time by 30-50%, enhancing client comfort, consistent application and controlled injection depth.
• You may feel mild pressure, stinging, or pinprick sensations during application.
• The procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes depending on the area treated.
• After the treatment is complete, your clinician will apply an accelerated and concentrated serum and lightweight moisturising crème, precisely tailored to hydrate and support the skin’s natural healing abilities.
• To conclude, we apply a cosmeceutical SPF 50+ sunscreen for added protection.
• Post-treatment, we highly recommend 20 minutes under the LED Light (Near-Infrared Light) to to support deep skin repair, reduce inflammation, and enhance cellular recovery for optimal healing and results.
After Treatment
• Mild redness, swelling, or small raised bumps at injection sites are normal and usually subside within 24–72 hours.
• Tiny bruises or pinprick marks may appear and typically resolve within a few days.
• Results are best seen with a course of 4 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, often as part of a treatment plan. Top-up treatment is recommended every 6 months to maintain and nurture the condition of your skin and overall glow.
Avoid After PRP & PRF Skin Treatment
• No sun exposure or tanning (including fake tan) for at least 2 weeks – use SPF 30+ or higher daily on treated areas.
• Avoid hot showers, saunas, spas, and steam rooms for 24–48 hours – heat can increase swelling and irritation.
• Avoid active skincare products for 2–5 days, including: Retinol, AHAs (like Glycolic Acid), BHAs (Salicylic Acid), Benzoyl Peroxide, and Vitamin C.
• Do not cleanse or rub the treated area on the day of treatment – allow the skin to settle.
• No makeup for 24 hours (or longer if pinpoint marks persist).
• Do not scrub, exfoliate, or pick at the treated area – until fully healed.
• No intense exercise for 24 hours, to reduce risk of overheating and irritation.
• Avoid alcohol and smoking for at least 24 hours, as alcohol can thin the blood (worsening bruising), and smoking impairs tissue oxygenation – both of which negatively affect PRP’s regenerative effects.
For addressing hair loss concerns, PRP and PRF can be a very effective solution. Research suggests injecting the platelets found in your own blood and activating growth factors can improve the blood supply to the hair follicles and increase the thickness of the hair shafts. PRP is effective in stimulating hair growth, while PRF provides longer term support for new cell growth. A combination of PRP and PRF Treatment are a popular choice to obtain the benefits of each; supporting new hair growth, thickening the hair shafts and reducing shedding.
Before Treatment

During Treatment
• The treatment area will be thoroughly cleansed and disinfected using a suitable antiseptic solution.
• A topical numbing cream is not advised to be applied to the scalp due to increased risk of infection.
• The area where your blood will be collected (typically the inner arm) will be carefully cleansed with an antiseptic solution prior to the draw to help minimise any risk of infection.
• Depending on the prescribed treatment, our team of certified providers will follow T-Lab’s™ Protocols to estimate how many tubes required / how much blood to collect and draw up as required.

When suitable (particularly for larger treatment areas) PRP and PRF is delivered by a multi-needle injector device, reducing treatment time by 30-50%, enhancing client comfort, consistent application and controlled injection depth.
• During application, you may feel discomfort and experience the sensation as a series of small pinches or pricks, similar to tiny injections or microneedling over the scalp.
• The procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes depending on the area treated.
• After the treatment is complete, leave the area completely clean and dry for at least 4-6 hours, ideally until the next day.
• Cosmeceutical SPF 50+ sunscreen is only applied to the treatment area if the scalp is visibly exposed to the sun; however a broad-brim hat is the safest option for sun protection post-treatment.
After Treatment
• Mild redness, swelling, or small raised bumps at injection sites are normal and usually subside within 24–72 hours.
• Tiny bruises or pinprick marks may appear and typically resolve within a few days.
• Results are best seen with a course of 6 sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart, often as part of a treatment plan. Top-up treatment is recommended every 6 months to support ongoing follicle stimulation and help maintain improvements in hair density and scalp health.
Avoid After PRP & PRF Scalp/Hair Treatment
• No sun exposure or tanning for at least 2 weeks.
• Avoid hot showers, saunas, spas, and steam rooms for 24-48 hours – heat can increase swelling and irritation.
• Avoid washing your hair and using hair styling products for at least 24 hours.
• Do not rub the treated area on the day of treatment – allow the skin to settle.
• Do not scrub, exfoliate, or pick at the treated area – until fully healed.
• No intense exercise for 24 hours, to reduce risk of overheating and irritation.
• Avoid alcohol and smoking for at least 24 hours, as alcohol can thin the blood (worsening bruising), and smoking impairs tissue oxygenation – both of which negatively affect PRP’s regenerative effects.
Skin Rejuvenation
PRP | Stimulates the natural regeneration process, promoting collagen production and the growth of new skin cells. This results in a brighter, more even complexion without the risks associated with harsh chemicals. Aids in the treatment of fine lines, wrinkles, poor skin texture, acne, scarring, and hyperpigmentation.
PRF | Offers the same stimulation of PRP and the natural regeneration process. I-PRF+ has a thicker viscosity, aiding in deeper wrinkles, hollows, and advanced signs of ageing.
Temporary Filler
PRF | Due to its gel-like consistency, it provides temporary volume to areas like facial lines and hollows. Its primary benefit is stimulating collagen production for improved skin quality rather than substantial volume replacement – essentially acting as a “natural” filler with a shorter duration compared to dermal fillers.
Periorbital (Under Eye)
PRP | Addresses dark circles, bags, superficial wrinkles, and shallow hollows under the eyes.
PRF | Addresses dark circles, bags, heavy wrinkles, and deeper hollows under the eyes.
Hair Growth
PRP | Stimulates the growth of hair for patients with hair loss and alopecia.
PRF | Aids in long-term support of new cell growth for patients with hair loss and alopecia.
