PRF Injections: Pre and Post Treatment Instructions

At Seaport Medspa, we offer Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) injections for natural skin and tissue rejuvenation. PRF is created from your own blood and contains concentrated platelets and growth factors that stimulate collagen production, circulation, and healing.

PRF injections can be used in multiple areas including the under-eyes, full face, and lips to support smoother texture, improve volume, reduce dark circles, and encourage natural regeneration. Results vary among individuals, and multiple sessions are often recommended for best outcomes.

To ensure safe healing and maximize results, please review and follow the pre- and post-care instructions below.

Pre-Care Instructions

2 Weeks Before Treatment

• Special events: Do not schedule PRF injections within 2 weeks of important events. Swelling and bruising are possible during healing.

7 Days Before Treatment

• NSAIDs: Avoid ibuprofen, Motrin, Aleve, Naprosyn, and aspirin if medically safe. Tylenol may be used if needed.

  
  

• Alcohol: Refrain from alcohol to reduce the risk of bleeding and bruising.

  
  

• Supplements: Stop Gingko, garlic, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, flax oil, curcumin, and other anti-inflammatory nutrients.

Day of Treatment

• Hydration: Drink plenty of water the day before and the day of your procedure to support an easy blood draw.

  
  

• Clean skin: Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotion, or other products.

Post-Care Instructions

First 24 Hours

• No exercise, heat, or sweating: Avoid heavy workouts, saunas, hot tubs, or hot showers.

  
  

• Keep area dry: Do not submerge treated areas in water.

First 7 Days

• NSAIDs: Continue to avoid ibuprofen, Motrin, Aleve, Naprosyn, and aspirin. Tylenol is safe for discomfort.

  
  

• Supplements: Continue to avoid Gingko, garlic, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, flax oil, curcumin, and other anti-inflammatory nutrients.

  
  

• No ice: Do not apply ice to the treated area. Swelling is an expected and important part of the healing process.

What to Expect

• Swelling and bruising: Mild to moderate swelling or bruising is normal and can last 3–7 days depending on the area treated.

  
  

• Healing: Under-eyes, lips, and facial areas may feel puffy or tender. This improves as the PRF stimulates natural regeneration.

Ongoing Care and Results

• Treatment series: A series of at least 3 treatments is recommended for optimal improvement.

  
  

• Stay on track: We recommend booking your next session at the time of treatment to remain consistent with your plan.
