To help you get the best results from your PRF Hair Restoration treatment, please review and follow the post-care checklist below.
First 24 hours
- Do not wash hair for at least 12–24 hours post-treatment.
- Avoid hair products (gel, mousse, sprays) until the next day.
- Do not scratch, rub, or massage the scalp in treated areas.
- No strenuous exercise, sweating, saunas, or hot tubs.
- No alcohol or smoking — both can impair healing.
- Sleep on a clean pillowcase.
After 72 hours
- Resume gentle shampooing unless instructed otherwise.
- Gentle sulfate-free shampoo; cool water; pat dry.
- No alcohol-based scalp products.
- Avoid hair coloring or chemical scalp treatments for at least 72 hours.
- Wear a hat or SPF outdoors.
- Resume topical minoxidil at 72 hours if you use it.
First week
- No chemical treatments for 7–14 days.
- Continue prescribed hair medications unless told otherwise.
What to expect
- Mild scalp tenderness, redness, or swelling for 1–3 days is normal.
- Scalp tightness or slight pressure for a day or two is part of the healing process.
- 20–40% of patients experience temporary shedding at 2–6 weeks — a normal follicular reset.
- New growth typically visible at 8–16 weeks with consistent treatment.
