Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a regenerative treatment that uses a patient’s own blood to promote healing and tissue regeneration. PRP is created by drawing a small amount of blood from the patient, spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the platelets and growth factors, and then injecting the concentrated plasma into the injured or damaged area
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is an advanced form of PRP that contains a higher concentration of platelets, fibrin, and white blood cells. PRF is processed at a lower centrifuge speed, which preserves more natural healing factors. Unlike PRP, PRF forms a fibrin clot, which acts as a slow-release healing matrix, enhancing tissue regeneration over a longer period.
Avoid sun exposure, tanning (including self-tanners and spray tans) on the treated area for at least two weeks before and after each LHR session to prevent burns, irritation, or pigmentation issues. Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen
Discontinue Retin-A, Glycolics, Alpha or Beta Hydroxy Acids, and exfoliants for one week prior to each treatment. Discontinue Accutane (and any isotretinoin products) for 12 months prior.
If treating your face and you have a history of cold sores, notify us beforehand for antiviral medication. LHR cannot be done on active cold sores.
A series of treatments is required to achieve desired results, and it is important that the treatments are performed on a set schedule. Make sure you will be able to comply.

Discontinue all waxing, plucking, tweezing, and depilatories for 2 weeks prior to starting your laser hair removal treatment series. This allows the hair to grow into the area to provide the necessary.
Please come to your appointment with a clean shave in the area to be treated. It is best to shave the night before (not the morning of) so that the skin is not irritated at the time of treatment.
It is important to wait at least two weeks after an LHR treatment before receiving any other treatments on the same area, including waxing, chemical peels, or laser procedures, to avoid irritation or adverse reactions.
Please come to your appointment with clean skin—remove all makeup, creams, lotions, and deodorant—and ensure the treatment area is clean-shaven. This helps optimize results and prevents irritation.
Please dress in a way that allows you to comfortably and modestly expose the treatment area when applicable (e.g., bikini, legs, underarms). Loose, comfortable clothing is recommended to avoid irritation post-treatment.
If antiviral medication was prescribed for you, please make sure to take it as directed before and after your treatment to prevent potential outbreaks and ensure a smooth healing process. Contact us with any concerns.
You may have a mild sunburn-like sensation following the treatment that is usually gone within a few hours. Mild swelling and skin redness are common and normally last for 3-4 days.
A cold compress or an ice pack can be used to provide comfort and minimize swelling. This is typically only needed within the first 12-24 hours after treatment. Apply in short intervals, avoiding direct contact with the skin, to prevent irritation.
Your skin will be fragile for 2-3 days. Avoid exfoliants, retinols, acids, and vitamin C for a week. Wash with hands only and keep the area moisturized. Treated areas may be temperature-sensitive, so avoid extreme heat or cold.

We believe PRP and medical grade skin care are integral and critical to the results of the treatment, therefore both PRP and a post care kit is included in the price of a single treatment, or a series. At the time of service, PRP will be applied last to accelerate healing using your body’s own growth factors. Once home and at the appropriate time, you may begin to use the medical grade skin to ensure healing and great results.
Your treatment plan will depend on the starting condition of your skin and the results you hope to achieve. Particularly when considering Microneedling for acne and other scarring, a series of treatments will be needed. The typical treatment plan for most individuals and skin concerns consists of a series of 3 treatments. Treatments are performed 1 month apart.
A personal consultation is needed to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your needs. At Radiance, consultations are always complimentary.
