Pre and Post care for PRP Injections
-
Stay Hydrated: Maintain proper hydration by drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to your PRP injection appointment. Hydrated skin can improve the effectiveness of the treatment.
Avoid Blood-Thinning Medications: To minimize the risk of bruising and bleeding, avoid taking blood-thinning medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and fish oil supplements for at least one week before your PRP treatment.
Discontinue Skincare Products: Stop using retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and other exfoliating agents for at least one week before your PRP injection appointment. These products can increase skin sensitivity and the risk of irritation.
Inform Your Provider: Inform your healthcare provider about any medical conditions, allergies, or medications you are currently taking before undergoing PRP injections. This information will help ensure your safety and optimal results.
-
Avoid Touching the Injection Site: Refrain from touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours after your PRP injections to minimize the risk of infection.
Protect the Skin: Avoid applying makeup, sunscreen, or skincare products to the treated area for at least 24 hours after PRP injections. Let the skin heal naturally to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment.
Use Gentle Skincare: After 24 hours, you can resume your regular skincare routine using gentle cleansers and moisturizers. Avoid harsh or abrasive products that may irritate the skin.
Apply Cold Compresses: If swelling or discomfort occurs, apply ice packs or cold compresses to the treated area intermittently for 10-15 minutes at a time. This can help reduce swelling and alleviate any discomfort.
Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure and protect the treated area with sunscreen or protective clothing for at least one week after PRP injections. Sun exposure can increase the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Stay Hydrated: Continue to drink plenty of water to keep the body and skin hydrated, which can aid in the healing process and enhance the results of PRP injections.
Follow-up Appointment: Schedule a follow-up appointment with your healthcare provider as recommended to assess the results of your PRP treatment and address any concerns or questions you may have.
By following these pre and post-care instructions, you can optimize the results of your PRP injections and minimize the risk of complications. If you have any questions or experience any unusual symptoms after treatment, contact your healthcare provider for guidance.
