Aging is a natural process. To age gracefully, you need to follow a healthy lifestyle and stay hydrated. Stay away from alcohol and cigarettes, and protect your skin from sun damage as these cause undue stress on the skin.
You should ideally start preparing about 3 weeks before the treatment. Stop taking any steroid medications or NSAIDs. If you are on blood thinners, discontinue them after consulting with your doctor. Make sure you are well-rested the night before, and have a full, healthy meal on the day of the treatment.
There is no prepping required as such, but we could recommend that you make some changes to your regular skincare. You might want to hold off the retinol and exfoliators at least a month before the treatment is scheduled. Use mild products only.
The real answer varies. But in general, you will need 3 to 4 sessions of PRP in Montreal and Ottawa, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. This gives the skin time to rejuvenate.
