Around the 3rd treatment (or after month 3), you may start to notice an improvement in skin quality, tone, and texture. You continue to see results as your body may continue to produce collagen for up to 6 months.
We recommend three treatments spaced four weeks apart. Many patients decide to have a maintenance treatment once a year.
● Avoid aspirin 10 days before treatment. If you are taking aspirin prescribed by your provider, confirm with them if you can stop taking it.
● Avoid alcohol or any blood thinners for 24 hours before treatment, as it can make the skin more susceptible to bruising.
● Plan your social calendar – You may swell or be bruised in the areas injected.
● Step 1: Consultation & Blood Draw
After a full consultation to ensure you are a proper candidate, your blood will be drawn in a vial and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the other components.
● Step 2: Treatment
The treatment area is cleansed and injections are performed, taking about 15 minutes.
● Step 3: Post-care
Once complete, the area will be cleaned, and aftercare will be discussed. You’ll be shown a mirror to see your appearance walking out of the office, which may include small bumps, swelling, redness, or bruising.
● You can use ice or take Tylenol after the treatment, if desired, for comfort.
● To avoid swelling and discomfort, avoid activities that increase heart rate, such as exercise or extreme heat (hot tubs, saunas), for 48 hours after treatment.
● You may take a shower that day. However, if you had PRP applied topically, you must wait 6 hours after treatment to wash off the product.
