WHEN SHOULD PRP OR EXOSOME THERAPY NOT BE USED? (CONTRAINDICATIONS)

PRP is generally avoided in people with blood or platelet disorders, active infections, certain cancers, or conditions requiring blood thinners that cannot be safely paused. Both PRP and exosome therapies are typically avoided during pregnancy or breastfeeding. A medical evaluation screens for these and other factors.

WHAT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS SHOULD I KNOW

PRP must be prepared and handled using sterile technique. Disclose all medications (especially blood thinners) and medical conditions. Discuss the current evidence and regulatory status of exosome products with your provider so you can make an informed choice.

HOW MANY SESSIONS MIGHT I NEED?

This depends on your goals and the area treated. A personalized plan is created during your consultation.

IS DOWNTIME EXPECTED?

Most people experience mild, short-lived swelling or redness. Your provider will give specific aftercare guidance.

PRP & EXOSOME THERAPY

Regenerative therapies that support natural repair.

OVERVIEW

UNDERSTANDING THE TREATMENT

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared from a small sample of your own blood. The sample is processed to concentrate platelets, which contain growth factors that play a role in the body's natural healing and repair processes.

Exosomes are tiny extracellular vesicles that carry signaling molecules between cells. In regenerative aesthetics, they are studied for their potential role in cell communication and tissue support.

These therapies are often considered for skin quality and, in some cases, as part of a broader hair or tissue-support plan. We provide a clear, evidence-aware explanation of what current science does and does not establish.

HOW IT WORKS

A CLEAR, STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS

01 CONSULTATION

A provider reviews your goals and confirms whether regenerative therapy is appropriate.

02 SAMPLE COLLECTION (PRP)

For PRP, a small blood sample is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.

03 PROCESSING

The sample is concentrated to prepare platelet-rich plasma; exosome products are prepared per protocol.

04 APPLICATION

The preparation is applied or injected into the target area using a careful technique.

05 RECOVERY & FOLLOW-UP

We provide aftercare instructions and assess response over time.

BENEFITS

Clinically framed potential benefits when treatment is appropriate.

PRP uses a concentrated preparation derived from your own blood

May support skin quality as part of a tailored plan

Can be combined with other treatments such as microneedling

Minimally invasive with generally modest downtime

RISKS & CONSIDERATIONS

Honest disclosure matters. Discuss all risks with your provider.

Temporary swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness at the treatment site.

Infection is rare but possible with any injection-based procedure.

Possible effects may include fluid retention, joint discomfort, changes in blood sugar, or injection-site reactions.

Evidence for some regenerative applications continues to evolve.

Results vary between individuals and are not guaranteed.

Exosome products are an emerging area; regulatory and evidence status is discussed during consultation.
