Benefits of EZ-Gel PRF
EZ-Gel PRF in Beverly Hills offers comprehensive benefits for patients seeking natural, lasting aesthetic improvement, such as:
- Natural Volume Restoration: The gel's unique texture provides immediate volume correction in hollow areas, particularly effective for tear trough and midface rejuvenation.
- Collagen Stimulation: Growth factors released from the fibrin matrix stimulate your body's natural collagen and elastin production, leading to continued improvement over time.
- Improved Skin Quality: Reduces fine lines and wrinkles while enhancing skin texture, smoothness, and overall tone.
- Long-Lasting Results: Effects typically last 9 to 18 months, significantly longer than traditional fillers, with benefits extending beyond the initial injection as collagen remodeling continues.
- Minimal Risk: Because EZ-Gel PRF is autologous (from your own body), there is virtually no risk of allergic reaction or rejection.
- Reduced Inflammation: The white blood cells and growth factors in EZ-Gel PRF help modulate inflammation and promote healthy tissue healing.
- Versatile Applications: Can be used throughout the face for various concerns, from under-eye hollows to nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and overall facial volumization.

What to Expect Before and During EZ-Gel PRF
During Your ,Consultation
Your EZ-Gel PRF journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Shafa. He will listen to your aesthetic concerns, examine your facial structure and skin quality, and discuss your desired outcomes. Dr. Shafa will explain how EZ-Gel PRF works, what results you can expect, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. He will also review your medical history to ensure you are an ideal candidate and address any questions or concerns you may have about the procedure, recovery, or results.
What to Expect During Treatment
The EZ-Gel PRF treatment begins with a simple blood draw, similar to routine lab work. Your blood is then processed in a specialized centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich fibrin. The PRF undergoes heating and cooling to form the gel. Once prepared, Dr. Shafa will inject the EZ-Gel into the targeted areas using precise techniques refined through years of experience. A topical anesthetic may be applied beforehand to ensure your comfort, though most patients find the procedure quite tolerable. The entire process typically takes 45 minutes to one hour, and you can return to normal activities immediately afterward.
Recovery and Results Timeline
Recovery from EZ-Gel PRF is minimal. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, which typically resolves within 24 to 48 hours. Some patients notice an initial increase in volume immediately following treatment, though this may be partially due to swelling. Over the next 2 to 3 weeks, as swelling subsides, your skin begins to regenerate. The most dramatic improvements typically appear around 8 to 12 weeks as collagen remodeling peaks, and the growth factors continue their work.
Results are gradual and natural-looking, with continued improvement over several months. Most patients experience noticeable benefits for 12 to 18 months. Many patients choose to undergo 2 to 3 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for optimal results, followed by maintenance sessions every 9 to 12 months to sustain their outcome. According to research in Communications Biology, platelet-rich fibrin demonstrates significant tissue repair and healing effects over extended periods.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does EZ-Gel PRF differ from traditional dermal fillers?
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which simply replace lost volume, EZ-Gel PRF stimulates your body's natural collagen production for regenerative, long-term benefits. Because it is derived entirely from your own blood, there is no risk of allergic reaction, and results improve over time rather than gradually fading.
Is EZ-Gel PRF painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during treatment. A topical anesthetic can be applied to enhance comfort, and the integrated cooling techniques Dr. Shafa uses help minimize any sensation during injection.
Can EZ-Gel PRF be combined with other treatments?
Yes, EZ-Gel PRF can be safely combined with other aesthetic treatments such as BOTOX, dermal fillers, laser resurfacing, or microneedling to enhance overall results. Dr. Shafa will create a comprehensive treatment plan based on your individual goals.
How many treatments will I need?
While some patients see improvement after a single treatment, most achieve optimal results with 2 to 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every 9 to 12 months help sustain your results.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are rare and minimal. Possible reactions include temporary swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness at injection sites, typically resolving within 24 to 48 hours.
How soon will I see results?
Initial volume may be visible immediately, though this is partly due to swelling. True regenerative results become apparent over 2 to 3 weeks, with optimal improvement at 8 to 12 weeks as collagen production reaches its peak.
