PRP Pre-Treatment instructions

  • Please drink plenty of fluids and water the day before and the day of your procedure. If you are dehydrated, it is much harder to draw your blood and you will not have as much plasma.

  • Avoid NSAIDs (ibuprofen, Aleve, naproxen, aspirin) for 7 days prior to your procedure. It is OK to take Tylenol (acetaminophen) prior to your procedure as this does not thin your blood and does not increase your risk of bruising.

  • Please stop any herbal supplements 7 days prior (including St Johns Wort, Garlic, Vitamin E, Ginko, etc). Biotin-based supplements do not need to be discontinued.

  • Do not dye your hair for the 24 hours leading up to your treatment.
