§ i · Slow-release

Arthrex PRF

Platelet-rich fibrin from a clinically established system with over a decade of use in aesthetic and sports medicine. A slower spin, no anticoagulants or additives: the platelets form a natural fibrin matrix that releases growth factors gradually over seven to ten days, with more white blood cells and stem cells than standard PRP.

Best for
  • Under-eye crepe, darkness, mild hollowing
  • Acne scars and deeper textural change
  • Clients who prefer additive-free processing
  • Fewer sessions with longer-acting release
From $750 Per session
§ ii · Concentrated dose

Cellenis PRP

Platelet-rich plasma processed with Salient's Health Canada-licensed Cellenis system, used in more than one million procedures worldwide. A concentrated liquid dose of growth factors delivered directly to the target area, signalling collagen production and tissue repair over the weeks that follow.

Best for
  • Broad skin rejuvenation (face, neck, décolletage)
  • Early hair thinning and post-partum shedding
  • Paired with microneedling for acne scars
  • Faster healing after Morpheus8 or deeper peels
From $600 Per session
§ iii · Autologous volume

Cellenis with NaturaGel

The NaturaGel add-on transforms your Cellenis PRP into an autologous bio-filler. Your platelet-rich plasma is combined with a gel matrix from your own platelet-poor plasma, creating a filler entirely from your own blood. The gel stays localised at the injection site for precise placement, offering both immediate volume and gradual regeneration.

Best for
  • Tear troughs where HA filler isn't right
  • Cheeks, jawline, or temples needing subtle volume
  • Clients avoiding synthetic filler materials
  • Sensitivity or allergy to HA products
From $750 Per session
§ i · Platelet-Rich Fibrin

Arthrex PRF

The slow-release fibrin matrix. Best for delicate areas and patient healing.

Arthrex produces platelet-rich fibrin, not just plasma. The centrifuge spins at a slower, gentler speed that preserves more of the blood's biology, platelets, yes, but also white blood cells, stem cells, and the fibrinogen that naturally clots into a fibrin matrix. Because no anticoagulants or additives are used, what we inject is considered 100% natural.

The matrix does two things. It concentrates healing signals at the injection site rather than letting them disperse quickly, and it releases growth factors gradually over seven to ten days. That sustained release is why PRF works well for slow, progressive regeneration, the kind delicate skin benefits from.

We reach for Arthrex when treating the under-eye area, where circulation is poor and gentler, longer release matters, and for acne scars, where collagen remodelling happens over weeks rather than hours. It's also our choice for clients who prefer additive-free processing, or anyone who'd rather have fewer sessions with a longer-acting effect.

§ ii · Platelet-Rich Plasma

Cellenis PRP

A concentrated, immediate dose of growth factors. Proven at scale.

Salient's Cellenis is a Health Canada-licensed platelet-rich plasma system, used in more than one million procedures worldwide. The higher-speed spin separates plasma from red blood cells cleanly, producing a consistent liquid concentrate of platelets and growth factors ready to deliver immediately.

Unlike a slow-release fibrin matrix, Cellenis PRP signals the body to repair all at once. The growth factors flood the treatment area and kickstart cellular processes, collagen production, capillary formation, improved circulation, that compound over the weeks that follow. First response is often a gentle glow in the first week; the real textural change builds over three to six months.

PRP excels at broad areas and active regeneration. We reach for Cellenis when treating the full face and neck for overall rejuvenation, the scalp for hair restoration, or skin that needs accelerated recovery after Morpheus8, microneedling, or deep chemical peels. It's also the base we draw from when preparing NaturaGel.

§ iii · Autologous Bio-Filler

Cellenis with NaturaGel

Filler made entirely from your own blood. Volume plus regeneration.

NaturaGel takes Cellenis PRP a step further. After processing your PRP, we prepare a second layer, platelet-poor plasma, and turn it into a gel matrix. That gel is combined with your PRP to produce an autologous bio-filler: a filler made entirely from your own blood, with no synthetic substances whatsoever.

The combination delivers two effects in one treatment. The gel provides immediate volume where hyaluronic acid filler would traditionally go. The platelet content continues regenerating the surrounding tissue over weeks, the way standard Cellenis PRP does on its own. Because the gel matrix is denser than liquid PRP, it stays where we place it, meaning predictable, precise positioning without migration.

NaturaGel is the right call when you want volume in a specific area without synthetic filler. Tear troughs are the classic use case: the under-eye skin is thin and the vascular risks of HA filler are real for many clients in this zone, but NaturaGel sits safely and integrates over time. It's also our pick for cheeks, jawline, temples, and anyone with HA sensitivity or a strong preference for natural-material fillers.

§ 05 · The biology

How your blood does the work.

Your blood is a regenerative kit that travels with you. Platelets, white blood cells, and fibrin all have roles in how tissue heals. PRP and PRF therapy isolate those regenerative components from the rest of your blood and deliver them, concentrated, to the areas that need repair.

Growth factors are the signalling molecules that do the work. PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor) stimulates new tissue formation. VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) prompts new capillaries, improving circulation and skin tone. TGF-β (transforming growth factor beta) orchestrates collagen and elastin production. Concentrate them at a target site and the body responds.

Because these components come from your own blood, there's no rejection risk and no foreign substance involved. The treatment doesn't introduce anything new to your body, it amplifies what's already there.

§ 05 · Honest expectations

What to realistically expect.

Standard PRP and PRF aren't instant treatments. Their work is biological, gradual, and compounds over sessions. Expect a gentle glow in the first week, noticeable textural change between weeks four and twelve, and peak improvement around three to six months.

For immediate volume, NaturaGel is the option that delivers both: the gel matrix provides visible volume on the day of treatment, while the platelet content continues regenerating the surrounding tissue for weeks. Standard PRP and PRF on their own don't add volume in the way a filler does, that's specifically what NaturaGel is for.

What these won't replace

No PRP, PRF, or NaturaGel treatment replaces surgery for significant laxity or advanced structural volume loss. For deep tightening we often pair with Morpheus8; for very long-lasting volume, HA filler may still be the right call. At your consultation we'll tell you straight if another pathway would serve you better.

Good fit

This is likely for you if…

  • You want to improve skin quality without synthetic products
  • You have early hair thinning or diffuse shedding
  • You're healing post-treatment and want faster recovery
  • You have realistic expectations (this is gradual, not instant)
  • You're generally healthy with no blood disorders
Not a fit

This is not for you if…

  • You have a platelet disorder, blood cancer, or are on chemotherapy
  • You're on systemic anticoagulants (warfarin, DOACs), we'd need a pause plan
  • You're pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You have an active skin infection in the treatment area
  • You've had significant recent blood loss or are anemic
i.

Day ofThe appointment

Quick blood draw (one small tube), centrifuge processing (10–15 min), then injection or micro-channel delivery. You'll have mild redness and occasional pinpoint bleeding at the sites. Plan for 45 minutes total.

ii.

First 48 hoursRecovery

Mild bruising possible at injection points (especially under-eyes). Avoid NSAIDs for 48 hrs, they inhibit the platelets you just used. Avoid alcohol 24 hrs. Some swelling around eyes is normal for 1–2 days.

iii.

Weeks to monthsResults emerge

A gentle glow often shows within the first week as circulation and hydration improve. The real work, new collagen, is biological and slow: noticeable change typically builds between weeks 4 and 12, with peak improvement by 3 to 6 months. Hair regrowth can take 3 months to become visible. We photograph to track change.

The blood draw is a standard venipuncture. For the injection phase, facial work stings briefly; under-eye areas we always numb first with topical cream. Scalp injections can feel more prominent, so we use ice and brief pauses. Most clients describe the discomfort as manageable rather than painful.
Yes. All three options use your own blood, so there's no foreign-substance risk and allergic reactions are extremely rare. Arthrex has over a decade of clinical use across aesthetic and sports medicine. Salient's Cellenis, which we use for PRP and NaturaGel, is Health Canada-licensed and has been used in more than one million procedures worldwide. Most side effects are minor, temporary bruising or swelling that resolves within 48 hours.
Both start with a small blood draw. The difference is in the spin: PRP is centrifuged at a higher speed, producing a liquid concentrate of platelets and growth factors ready to deliver immediately. PRF uses a slower spin with no anticoagulants, so the blood naturally forms a fibrin matrix that preserves more white blood cells and stem cells and releases growth factors gradually over seven to ten days. In our clinic, Cellenis handles PRP; Arthrex handles PRF.
We decide together at your consultation, based on the concern and your priorities. Broad skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, or pairing with microneedling typically points to Cellenis PRP. Under-eye work, acne scarring, or a preference for additive-free slow-release processing points to Arthrex PRF. If you want volume in a specific area without synthetic filler, Cellenis with NaturaGel is the right call. You're never locked in, many clients use different systems for different concerns over time.
NaturaGel is an add-on to our Cellenis system that turns your PRP into an autologous bio-filler. After separating your platelet-rich plasma, we prepare a second layer, platelet-poor plasma, and process it into a gel matrix. Combining the two produces a filler made entirely from your own blood: it delivers immediate volume where HA filler would traditionally go, while the platelet content continues regenerating the surrounding tissue over the weeks that follow.
Both. The gel matrix acts as a filler, providing immediate volume at the injection site, and because the matrix is denser than liquid PRP, it stays precisely where we place it. At the same time, the platelet content keeps working like PRP, stimulating collagen, improving circulation, and regenerating the surrounding tissue over the weeks that follow. It's the only one of our three options that does both jobs in one treatment.
They're similar in visible effect (volume in a specific area) but different in composition and behaviour. HA fillers are synthetic and generally last nine to eighteen months depending on the product and area. NaturaGel is made entirely from your own blood, so there's no synthetic material, no risk of allergic reaction, and no vascular-occlusion concerns associated with certain HA products. The trade-off is that NaturaGel typically lasts three to six months before your body reabsorbs it, so if duration is your priority, HA filler is still the longer-lasting option. We carry both, so we can pick the right one for you.
The standard protocol is a series of three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, for both PRP and PRF. Hair protocols often need three to four sessions followed by maintenance every six months. NaturaGel is sometimes one treatment (for targeted volume) with touch-ups as needed; deeper plans may involve two sessions. We never over-schedule, if you're not responding after two sessions, we re-evaluate rather than push through.
A gentle glow often shows in the first week as circulation and hydration improve. The real work, new collagen, is biological and gradual: noticeable textural change typically builds between weeks four and twelve, with peak improvement around three to six months. With NaturaGel, you'll see the volumising effect immediately; the regenerative work underneath continues to build over the same timeline.
Yes, and it's often ideal. Cellenis PRP is commonly applied topically after microneedling or Morpheus8 for deeper absorption through the micro-channels, which accelerates healing and deepens the regenerative effect. Arthrex PRF can also be applied topically after microneedling for a slower-release version of the same benefit. Combined sessions don't cost much more than single-treatment visits.
Yes. Each system uses its own blood draw, but we can process one tube through Arthrex for PRF on delicate areas and another through Cellenis for PRP on broader areas during the same appointment. Treatment time extends, but you avoid a second visit. We'll discuss whether combining systems is worth it, sometimes one system alone does everything you need.
Before: hydrate well in the 24 hours prior, and avoid NSAIDs (ibuprofen, naproxen) for 48 hours before treatment, they inhibit the platelets we're about to concentrate. Skip alcohol the night before. After: continue avoiding NSAIDs and alcohol for 48 hours. Makeup can usually go on 24 hours after treatment (12 hours for NaturaGel). Full exercise is fine after 24 hours. We send complete aftercare instructions with each booking.
Cellenis PRP starts at $600 per session. Arthrex PRF and PRP with NaturaGel both run $750, since they require additional processing time (PRF for the slower spin and clot formation; NaturaGel for the gel matrix made from your own platelet-poor plasma). Microneedling combined with PRF is $850. All pricing is transparent and listed upfront. No surprise quotes.
