PRF treatments use a small sample of your own blood to trigger new collagen production, which means the results build slowly and look completely natural. No synthetic filler, no foreign material, just your body doing what it already knows how to do.
Patients in 12 South and Berry Hill have caught on fast. Both neighborhoods draw a crowd that cares about skincare and wants a treatment they can actually explain to a friend.
If you’re curious what a PRF plan could look like for your skin, our PRF treatment page breaks down exactly how the process works.
PRF and PRP both start with a blood draw, but they end up doing different jobs. PRP is spun faster and injected as a liquid, delivering a quick burst of growth factors. PRF spins slower and forms a fibrin matrix, which releases those same growth factors gradually over several days.
That slower release matters. Instead of one quick hit of collagen stimulation, PRF keeps working after you’ve already left the office.
Most patients notice PRF produces longer-lasting improvement in skin texture and tone, especially after more than one session.
PRF isn’t a one-trick treatment. It works well across a handful of common concerns, especially for patients who want gradual, natural-looking change.
Combining PRF with microneedling tends to get the best results. The tiny channels created during microneedling let those growth factors absorb deeper into the skin.
Ask around 12 South and you’ll hear the same thing. Patients want results, but they want them to come from something they trust, and “your own blood” checks that box in a way synthetic filler never quite does.
Berry Hill patients tend to lean the same direction. This crowd already reads ingredient labels and asks questions before booking, so PRF’s natural mechanism is an easy sell once they understand it.
There’s also the subtlety factor at play here. PRF builds results slowly enough that nobody clocks the treatment. They just notice you look better.
Your PRF appointment starts with a quick blood draw, similar to a routine lab visit. That sample goes into a centrifuge, which spins out the platelet-rich fibrin, and the whole prep takes about 10 minutes.
From there, your provider injects the PRF into the target area or combines it with microneedling for broader coverage. Expect some redness and mild swelling for a day or two afterward, but nothing that stops you from going about your day.
Results build gradually, with most patients noticing improved texture and glow within three to four weeks.

PRF treatments in Nashville typically run $400 to $700 per session, depending on the treatment area and whether it’s combined with microneedling.
Not exactly. A vampire facial usually combines PRP with microneedling, while PRF uses a different spin process that forms a fibrin matrix for slower-releasing results.
Most patients need two to three sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart, to see full collagen-building results.
PRF involves a standard blood draw and injections with numbing cream applied beforehand, so most patients describe it as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful.
