Candidates for treatment with PRP injections must be free of blood disorders.
An initial consultation with your specialist is essential to find out if this treatment is suitable for your particular situation.
Procedure for a PRP injection session
A precise, personalized diagnosis is first established with your aesthetic doctor during the initial consultation, and a suitable procedure will be chosen according to this diagnosis and your objectives.
Details of the procedure
One hour before treatment, depending on individual sensitivity levels, an anaesthetic cream can be applied by the doctor or the patient to the area to be treated. You must arrive on an empty stomach before treatment begins.
The procedure begins with a blood sample. The blood collected is immediately centrifuged to extract the platelet-concentrated plasma, then reinjected into the areas to be treated.
The treatment lasts from 40 to 80 minutes, depending on the area to be treated.
The patient can return home right after the session.
Aftermath
You can resume your activities immediately. The after-effects of a Platelet Rich Plasma injection are generally straightforward. Slight swelling, redness or bruising are transitory and disappear in the following days.
A moisturizing and soothing cream is systematically prescribed and administered after the session, and should be applied for 48 hours.
Results
Results begin to be visible after a month, the time needed for the cells to begin their regeneration process.
Afterwards, patients note highly satisfying results: skin is luminous and smooth, spots and scars faded, dark circles lightened, face, neck and décolleté firmer and more toned.
For capillary PRP, after the first session, hair has regained its shine and is thicker. From the second session onwards, hair loss slows down.
Maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months allow the skin to constantly regenerate, for lasting results. One or two maintenance sessions are required each year to maintain the results of capillary PRP.
The goal of this treatment is to bring about an improvement and not to achieve perfection. If your expectations remain realistic, the obtained result should give you utmost satisfaction.
