PRF Injections in Raleigh, NC
PRF, or platelet-rich fibrin, is a regenerative treatment that uses components from your own blood to support natural-looking facial rejuvenation. At Injectables by Dr. V in Raleigh, PRF injections may be used to improve under-eye hollows, fine lines, skin texture, and early volume changes.
PRF is often called a bio filler because it works differently from traditional dermal filler. Instead of adding synthetic volume, PRF supports gradual improvement in tissue quality and collagen activity over time.

What Is PRF?
PRF stands for platelet-rich fibrin. During treatment, a small amount of blood is drawn and processed to concentrate platelets, fibrin, white blood cells, and growth factors. The PRF is then injected into targeted areas.
Because PRF comes from your own blood, it is often chosen by patients who want a more natural regenerative option for delicate areas of the face.
PRF vs. PRP
PRF and PRP are related, but they are not identical.
PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is often used for hair restoration, skin rejuvenation, joints, and sexual wellness. PRF contains a fibrin matrix that allows growth factors to release more gradually.
For facial rejuvenation, PRF may be especially useful in thinner or more delicate areas where subtle improvement is preferred.
Common PRF Treatment Areas
PRF may be used for:
- Under-eye hollows
- Dark circles
- Fine lines
- Crepey skin
- Skin texture
- Mild volume loss
- Lines around the mouth
- Overall skin quality
PRF Under Eyes
The under-eye area is one of the most common areas for PRF treatment. PRF may help improve the appearance of tired eyes, thinning skin, hollowness, and fine lines.
Dr. V will determine whether PRF, dermal filler, skin resurfacing, or another treatment is the right option based on your anatomy.
What to Expect
Your appointment begins with a consultation and facial assessment. A small blood sample is drawn, processed, and prepared for injection. Dr. V then places the PRF in targeted areas using careful technique.
Results develop gradually. Some patients may benefit from a series of treatments depending on the area treated and their goals.
