Aftercare

After a PRP procedure the most frequently reported temporary side effects are swelling, redness, bruising, tenderness, tingling, numbness, lumpiness, and a feeling of pressure or fullness at the injection sites in the treated area.

You can apply cool gel mask to reduce swelling and relive the symptoms, but this will only last for up to 12 hours.

 

To Avoid extreme bruising clients should not take blood thinners such as Aspirin and NSAIDS for several days after treatment. Clients can, however, take paracetamol if needed for pain.

 

For 24 hours after treatment avoid touching or scrubbing at the injection sites.

Sleep on your back with your head elevated with an extra pillow for 2 to 5 nights.

 

Avoid direct high heat for 24 hours after treatment. Some examples of direct heat include sun exposure, sauna, steam room, very hot shower and strenuous exercise

Do Not Wash your skin for 12 hours

 

Makeup can be applied following treatment if desired, but we advise to wait 24 hours and use of mineral make up for the first 72 hours.

 

Avoid Facials, Facial Massages, or Laser Treatments for 2 Weeks Afterward. Almost all facials, chemical peels and laser treatments may be done prior to the treatment. However, they cannot be done for 2 weeks after PRP treatment.

 

Anti-wrinkle injections can be injected immediately before or after treatment.
