After and Before PRP FACE/NECK/HAIR
Immediately following the treatment, your skin may feel tight, dry, swollen, sensitive to the touch, and will look and feel sunburned. The redness generally disappears within 24 hours. Swelling and other sensitivity will subside in 2 – 7 days.
Caring for your skin after the treatment is relatively easy. You will be instructed to avoid makeup and sunscreen for 12 hours. The evening of your treatment, you will be required to wash your face with only the gentle cleanser which will be provided before you leave your treatment. Most women can begin to use makeup after the first 12-72 hours. During this time you will be instructed to use a special, gentle cleanser, a Hyaluronic Acid serum, and physical sunblock such as hats, sun glasses, scarves, etc. Three days after the treatment, you can return to your regular skin care regimen, but should avoid alcohol-based toners for two weeks and excessive sun exposure for 10 days.

6-Take some time for yourself and relax. Stress can seriously impede hair growth, so it’s important to find ways to relax and de-stress on a daily basis.
7-Eat a healthy diet that is rich in vitamins and minerals (like iron, zinc, vitamin B12, and biotin). Eating the right foods can help support healthy hair growth.
