PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) EZ GEL in Seattle, WA
If you’re all about glowing skin but not exactly thrilled about the idea of surgery or synthetic fillers, you’re not alone. A lot of us want that fresh, radiant look, but would rather keep things natural.
That’s where PRF EZ GEL comes in. This treatment taps into your body’s own powerful healing magic (your platelets!) to smooth, firm, and refresh your skin.
PRF stands for platelet-rich fibrin, and it’s like the cooler, more advanced cousin of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Think of it as next-level support for collagen production, skin renewal, and that dewy, lit-from-within vibe.
At Lux Aesthetics in Seattle, our team of nurse injectors and licensed estheticians loves PRF EZ GEL because it works with you, not against you, to help you love the skin you’re in.
What Is PRF EZ GEL?
PRF EZ GEL is one of our favorite ways to support natural, beautiful rejuvenation without relying on additives or synthetic ingredients.
PRF is made from your own blood and forms a fibrin matrix that holds onto those all-important growth factors, releasing them gradually over 10 to 12 days. That slow-and-steady approach means more collagen, better tissue support, and longer-lasting results.
In other words, it gives your skin the time it needs to fully absorb all the benefits.
PRF vs. PRP: What’s the Difference?
Both PRF and PRP harness your body’s platelets to spark collagen and kickstart healing, but PRF takes things up a notch. Here’s why we’re all-in on PRF at Lux Aesthetics:
- No Additives, All You: PRF is 100% natural – no anticoagulants, no additives, just your own platelets.
- Slow and Steady Wins the Glow: Thanks to its unique fibrin matrix, PRF holds onto those powerful growth factors and releases them slowly over 10–12 days. PRP, by comparison, releases everything all at once – quick but not as lasting.
- Packed with Healing Power: PRF contains more platelets, white blood cells, and stem cells than PRP. It gives your skin extra support for stronger, healthier rejuvenation.
- Gentler Processing: PRF is processed at a lower speed, which helps preserve more of the cells your skin loves.
- Next-Level Collagen Boost: This isn’t just a quick fix. PRF encourages long-term collagen production, so your results last well after your visit.
- Happy Skin, Less Inflammation: No additives means less irritation and an easier recovery.
Bottom line? We choose PRF at Lux Aesthetics because it simply works better – and you deserve nothing but the best.
How We Use PRF
PRF is incredibly versatile. We use it for a wide range of aesthetic and regenerative purposes, including:
- Hair Restoration: Stimulates hair growth in areas that are thinning or receding.
- Under-Eye Rejuvenation: Improves dark circles and hollowing for a refreshed appearance.
- Facial Rejuvenation: Reduces wrinkles and fine lines while improving skin texture and tone.
- Scar Reduction: Diminishes the appearance of acne scars and surgical scars.
- Volume Loss: Subtly restores volume in tear troughs, cheeks, and other areas.
- Neck and Décolleté: Softens wrinkles and enhances skin quality.
PRF EZ GEL Candidates
PRF EZ GEL is a great option for anyone who wants to refresh their look without worrying about harsh chemicals or fillers.
PRF works well for people who are in good health and want to:
- Soften fine lines
- Boost collagen
- Smooth out uneven tone and texture
- Firm up loose areas
While PRF EZ GEL is safe for many, it’s not the right choice for everyone. You’ll want to skip it if you:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have low platelet counts
- Have an active infection or skin irritation near the treatment area
- Have cancer or any bleeding or blood disorders
- Are on blood thinners
- Have a compromised immune system
During your initial visit, we’ll chat about your goals and health history to see if this is your perfect match.
What Happens During Treatment
During a PRF EZ GEL session, a small amount of your blood is drawn. It’s like a routine lab test. That blood is then spun in a special centrifuge at a low speed, which separates the golden layer of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF).
Next, the concentrated PRF is gently warmed into a gel-like consistency, creating the EZ GEL. Once ready, the EZ GEL is carefully injected into the areas where you want to boost collagen, soften lines, or improve skin tone.
There’s little to no downtime, which is one reason people love this approach. Most patients feel comfortable returning to their usual routine right away.
How to Prep for Your Treatment
A little prep goes a long way in helping you get the most out of your PRF EZ GEL glow-up. Here’s what we recommend before your appointment:
- Press pause on anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen, aspirin, and naproxen for at least 7 days. These medications can thin your blood and increase the chances of bruising.
- Skip the cocktails (and any alcohol) for at least 24 hours beforehand. Alcohol can dehydrate you and thin your blood.
- Take it easy on the workouts. Avoid strenuous exercise or anything that puts stress on the area being treated. Save the heavy lifting and marathon runs for after your appointment.
Essential Aftercare Tips
You might notice a little swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness for a few days after your session. Some folks also feel a bit of tingling as those powerhouse cells get to work, but that’s totally normal.
To keep your results on point:
- Gently ice the area to help reduce swelling.
- Say no to anti-inflammatories for at least 3 days after your session. These can interfere with your body’s inherent healing process.
- Hold off on alcohol, caffeine, and smoking for about 3 days post-treatment. They’re not your skin’s best friends while it’s working hard to renew.
- Avoid blood-thinning supplements, such as fish oil, for a few days.
- Skip intense workouts, sun exposure, and heat (including saunas and hot yoga) for at least 2 days while your skin settles.
- Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Drink plenty of water during that first week to keep your skin happy and support the healing process.

FAQs
You may notice a softer, more refreshed look within the first week after your PRF EZ GEL treatment, but the real magic happens over time. Because PRF works by gradually releasing growth factors and boosting collagen production, your skin continues to improve in the weeks that follow.
Most people start to see significant changes after three to four weeks. They also enjoy ongoing improvements in texture, firmness, and radiance as the body’s healing process takes effect.
The beauty of PRF EZ GEL is that it encourages your body to do the work, which means results tend to look soft and natural – and they last longer than many other injectable options.
Depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and how your body responds, the effects can last anywhere from 6-12 months. Many people choose to maintain their glow with periodic touch-ups to keep collagen production steady and skin looking its best.
Everyone’s skin is unique, so the number of treatments really depends on your goals and how your skin responds.
Many people start with a series of two to three sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart to build a strong foundation of collagen and support tissue regeneration. After that, a maintenance appointment once or twice a year can help keep your results going strong.
