PROCEDURE FOR PRP FACE
After a thorough assessment, we apply a local anesthetic cream to the patient’s face. Meanwhile we draw your blood (just like in any routine blood test), and start preparing the PRP by centrifuging it serially. Once the PRP is ready, we sterilise your facial skin, and then either microneedle or inject the PRP into your skin.
Post-Procedure Care:
Sun Protection: Avoiding direct sunlight to prevent complications.
Gentle Cleaning: Using mild cleansers to keep the treated area clean.
Moisturizing: Applying recommended moisturizers to maintain skin hydration.
Rest and Relaxation: Temporarily limiting strenuous activities.
Follow-up Check-ins: Scheduled appointments to monitor progress and address any concerns.
