Each person’s body has a different response to PRP. Most people see improvements within 2-8 weeks following your PRP Lip Injections session. Results, of course, can vary and will depend on the original condition of your lips and the particular results you’re seeking for your mouth and lip area.
Our FDA-cleared lip injections utilize PRP produced from your own blood, and it can only be administered by a licensed and trained medical provider. PRP Lip Injections have an excellent safety profile, and we will discuss all of your safety concerns at our first session before proceeding with treatment. PRP injections are also not for you if you have certain allergies (e.g., to stainless steel), hemostatic (bleeding) dysfunction, taking certain medications or having certain medical conditions. Especially if you have blood clotting disorders, anemia, or cancer, or if you have skin cancer, open wounds, sores or irritated skin in the treatment area, PRP Lip Injections may be contraindicated.
If just the thought of needles or injections gives you pause, don’t worry. These treatments provide little to no discomfort because of the use of local topical anesthetic. It is possible, of course, that some people will experience minimal pain, swelling and soreness – perhaps even slight bruising - following a treatment session, but it is not common and should only be mild and can be managed with rest and over-the-counter pain relief. You should delay strenuous activities for 24 hours.
In general, PRP Lip Injections have minimal side effects. We have patients who experience no side effects at all. While some people can experience mild swelling, soreness or redness at the injection site, these effects are only temporary.
During your PRP Lip Injections session, no general anesthesia is required, but a local anesthetic will be used. The injection site will be thoroughly cleaned, then a small needle will be used to inject your processed blood plasma into your treatment area on and around your lips. The process can be repeated if you have multiple areas we need to treat.
