PRP Aftercare

Key Aftercare Tips for PRP Treatments

Effective PRP aftercare is crucial for achieving optimal results following your platelet-rich plasma treatment. Immediately after treatment with a PRP, there may be a slight redness, swelling, tenderness or an itching sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the injection and generally disappears in a couple of days.
