Your Post-Treatment Injectable PRP, PRFM, PDGF Guide

Everything you need to keep your new look glowing.

You’ve taken an exciting step toward naturally refreshed, healthier skin!

Your PRP, PRFM, or PDGF treatment is now hard at work beneath the surface, using your body’s natural power to boost fresh collagen and renew your skin. Following these simple post-care steps will help ease any mild swelling or tenderness and make sure you get the absolute best results from your visit.

What to Expect (Normal Recovery)

Mild Swelling & “Fluid Cushion”: Localized swelling and fullness at injection sites (especially under the eyes) are normal for the first 24 to 48 hours as the plasma matrix integrates into the tissue.
Redness, Warmth & Tenderness: Light surface redness and mild tenderness around micro-injection points typically peak within 12 hours and resolve within 1 to 3 days.
Pinpoint Bruising: Minor pinpoint bruising from needles or cannula vector entry points may occur, clearing naturally over 3 to 7 days.
Progressive Bio-Stimulation: The initial volume from the fluid plasma subsides in 2–3 days. Real biological results (collagen thickening, brightened tear troughs, refined texture) develop progressively over 4 to 12 weeks.

What to Do (Post-Care Action Steps)

Avoid NSAIDs / Anti-Inflammatories for 3–5 Days: Do NOT take Ibuprofen, Advil, or Aleve after treatment. Platelets require the body’s natural inflammatory signaling cascade to release growth factors. Use Tylenol if needed for soreness.
Apply Alastin INhance Post-Injection Serum: Gently apply Alastin INhance twice daily to speed up bruise clearing, reduce swelling, and nourish needle entry sites.
Keep Area Clean & Avoid Heat/Strenuous Activity: Avoid touching, rubbing, or applying makeup to treated areas for 6 hours. Skip intense workouts, saunas, and hot tubs for 24–48 hours to minimize excessive flushing.
Maintain Treatment Series Roadmap: For maximum collagen density and long-term repair, complete a series of 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 6–12 months.

What to Expect: Your Regenerative Timeline

Days 1–3 | Growth Factor Release & Activation

Platelets/growth factors active in the fibrin matrix release concentrated signal cascades, recruiting stem cells and fibroblasts to the injection site. Fluid volume settles.

Weeks 2–3 | Cellular Proliferation & Matrix Repair

Fibroblasts synthesize fresh Type III collagen and extracellular matrix components. Early improvements in skin hydration and fine-line softening begin under the surface.

Weeks 6–12 | Peak Dermal Density & Remodeling Peak Results

Collagen matures into resilient Type I fibers. Under-eye hollows show improved firmness, dark shadow brightness, skin elasticity, and overall structural density.

Months 6–12 | Long-Term Maintenance

Sustain your rejuvenated collagen structure with periodic single maintenance sessions once or twice per year.
