Program overview
PRP and PRF training for aesthetic and regenerative practice
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are autologous biostimulation treatments that harness the regenerative properties of a patient’s own blood to stimulate collagen production, improve skin quality, and promote hair follicle health. As one of the fastest-growing areas in aesthetic medicine, PRP and PRF offer nurses a natural, evidence-supported treatment modality with a strong safety profile and growing patient demand.
Our PRP and PRF training covers blood collection, centrifuge technique, plasma separation, and the clinical applications of injectable PRP, topical PRF, and PRF membrane creation — for facial rejuvenation, under-eye treatment, hair loss management, and combination therapy with microneedling or lasers. All protocols are aligned with Australian infection control standards and TGA regulations.
To round out your regenerative skills, you can also add microneedling training to your service menu, view all beauty and cosmetic training courses and enrol in cosmetic injectable training.
Practitioners should also review the Ahpra guidelines for non-surgical cosmetic procedures.
- Blood collection technique, vein access, and anticoagulant protocols
- Centrifuge operation: RPM, spin time, plasma separation and platelet concentration
- PRP preparation and quality assessment
- PRF and A-PRF (advanced PRF) protocols — lower spin, higher growth factor retention
- Facial rejuvenation injections: intradermal, subdermal, and periorbital PRP
- PRP for hair restoration: scalp injection technique and treatment planning

Is This Right for You?
Who is this PRP and PRF training for?
Nurses adding natural biostimulation treatments
Registered nurses wanting to offer patients autologous, natural treatment alternatives — PRP and PRF provide effective skin rejuvenation and hair restoration options that appeal to patients seeking non-synthetic injectable treatments.
Nurses working in hair restoration
Aesthetic nurses interested in the growing field of non-surgical hair loss treatment, where PRP is one of the most evidence-supported interventions for androgenetic alopecia in both men and women.
Clinics building a regenerative medicine offering
Aesthetic clinic teams wanting to develop a comprehensive regenerative and biostimulation menu that includes PRP facials, PRF threads, and combination protocols alongside their injectable and laser services.
The PRP and PRF training was incredibly detailed — from the platelet biology right through to the centrifuge technique and injection protocols. I now confidently offer both PRP facials and hair restoration sessions, and patients love the natural approach.
Questions about nurse mentoring
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) uses anticoagulants to keep the blood liquid, producing an injectable plasma rich in platelets. PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) uses no anticoagulants and is spun at lower speeds — creating a fibrin-based matrix with higher growth factor concentrations. PRF can also be formed into membranes and threads for topical application. Our training covers both and the clinical indications for each.
PRP and PRF are used for facial skin rejuvenation (skin quality, fine lines, tone), under-eye darkening and hollowness, hair loss (androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium), scalp health, and as combination therapy with microneedling, fractional laser, or injectable treatments. Evidence is strongest for androgenetic alopecia and general skin biostimulation.
PRP and PRF are autologous (prepared from the patient's own blood) and are not classified as therapeutic goods under the TGA when prepared and used in the same patient. However, practitioners should comply with relevant blood-handling, infection control, and scope of practice requirements. Our training covers all relevant compliance considerations for Australian nurses.
For skin rejuvenation, 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart is a standard initial protocol. For hair restoration, a minimum of 3–6 sessions is typically recommended. Maintenance sessions every 3–6 months help sustain results. Our training includes patient education and treatment planning guidance.
