WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF PRP INJECTIONS?

The crucial aspect of having a safe procedure is getting a certified PRP practitioner performing the treatment to avoid serious complications. Our PRP clinic Toronto beauticians at Be Youthful are qualified injectors that carry out the procedure following the right steps.

Side effects are rare, but there are still possible low-risk outcomes that you should know about before the treatment such as the following:

  • Infection
  • Nerve injuries
  • Pain
  • Bruising or swelling

Our medical aestheticians will outline all the potential risks to be aware of before the procedure and will clarify that the side effects are rare and usually subside in weeks’ time or two weeks.

PREPARATION FOR A PRP TREATMENT

Before the procedure you will consult with our PRP aesthetician to go through the process. Some of the main factors to keep note of are the following:

  • Inform the aesthetician if you have a history of herpes or fever blisters.
  • Significant allergies or skin sensitivity conditions that we should be aware of.
  • If you are taking broad beta-blockers (Propranolol).
  • If you have had a recent facial peel or surgery.
  • Recent use of tanning substances.
  • Tanning bed use or prolonged sun exposure 24 hours prior to the treatment.
  • All medications and supplements you are taking including blood thinners, Accutane, and any Retin-A products.
  • Any history of keloid scarring.
  • If you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Keeping these significant factors in mind will ensure a safe and successful treatment. Our PRP Toronto specialists will be asking all necessary questions before they commence the treatment.

Frequently asked questions

HOW LONG DO RESULTS LAST?

Results may vary from person to person. Depending on the patient’s lifestyle and severity of the condition, some may experience longer lasting results than others.

WHAT IS THE DURATION OF THE TREATMENT?

The procedure can take about one hour or more. However, sometimes we may take time before the treatment to apply topical numbing cream.

CAN I STILL COME IN FOR A PRP TREATMENT IF I AM SUSCEPTIBLE TO COLD SORES?

Please inform us prior to the treatment if you are vulnerable to cold sores. We typically advise against getting PRP treatments if you have active cold sores to avoid the spread of rashes.

IS THE BLOOD DRAWN FROM ANYWHERE OR IS THERE A SPECIFIC AREA?

Our practitioners will only draw blood samples from the patient’s arm.

AM I THE RIGHT CANDIDATE FOR PRP?

Consult with our medical aestheticians to determine if you are the appropriate candidate for PRP. They will ask you all necessary questions regarding your medical history and other underlying conditions.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I REPEAT PRP SESSIONS?

Consult with our PRP experts to determine the number of sessions needed for your skin type and concerns. Typically, our patients come in 1-2 times a year to maintain the benefiting effects of PRP.

HOW PAINFUL IS THE PROCEDURE?

The level of discomfort or pain typically depends on the patient’s pain tolerance. Some patients report very minimal pain while others experience mild to moderate pain discomfort.

CAN I WEAR MAKEUP AFTER PRP?

Even though your face might have small bumps, redness, or minor swelling, we advise that you refrain from applying any makeup for 24 hours after the treatment.
