Rediscover Radiant Skin with PRP & PRFM Facial Treatments in Riverview
If you're looking for a natural, non-surgical way to rejuvenate your skin, improve tone, and reduce signs of aging, regenerative medicine offers a powerful solution. At Pommier Med Spa, the latest in skin revitalization is available through PRP and PRFM facial therapiesâsafe, effective treatments that use your bodyâs own healing properties to restore youthful glow and firmness.
What Are PRP and PRFM?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRFM (Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix) are both derived from your blood and used to stimulate natural healing and collagen production. While PRP involves injecting plasma rich in platelets, PRFM takes it a step further by creating a fibrin matrix that holds the platelets in place longer, allowing more time for healing and tissue repair.
These treatments are ideal for reducing fine lines, improving texture, softening scars, and enhancing overall complexion.
How Do These Treatments Work?
The process is safe, simple, and performed in-office:
A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm.
The blood is spun in a centrifuge to isolate plasma and platelets.
For PRFM, calcium chloride is added, forming a thicker gel-like matrix.
The PRP or PRFM is carefully injected into targeted areasâor applied using micro-needling techniquesâto boost collagen and skin renewal.

PRP vs. PRFM: Whatâs the Difference?
While both treatments are effective, PRFM offers longer-lasting results. PRP works for about 24 hours after application, whereas PRFM stays active for up to 7 days. That means more time for the platelets to repair and regenerate the skin.
If you're looking for maximum skin rejuvenation and longer-lasting effects, PRFM is a great option. However, PRP is still highly effective and may be suitable for certain skin types or cosmetic goals.
