Is the Procedure Right for You?
Patients who experience receding hairline and thinning areas as opposed to complete baldness typically make the best candidates for the PRP treatment. That being said, this treatment is contraindicated for those patients who have such medical conditions as chronic liver disease, platelet dysfunction syndromes, skin diseases, or certain metabolic disorders. In addition, you would be ineligible to receive the PRP treatment if you have undergone anti-coagulation therapy. Keeping in mind the contraindications for the PRP injections, it is crucial to be completely honest during the consultation so that Dr. Omidi may obtain sufficient information about your prior medical conditions or drug allergies.Scheduling a consultation is a crucial first step in undergoing the PRP treatment. It allows Dr. Omidi to carefully assess your needs and discuss your expected results. He is known to dedicate a substantial amount of time to an in-person examination so as to carefully evaluate the imperfections in need of revision. A firm believer in building close personal rapport with patients prior to each cosmetic procedure, he insists on giving each prospective patient enough time to present reasons for undergoing the PRP treatment and then going over every step involved in this procedure. Such a careful and personalized approach to preparing the patient for the procedure ultimately pays off because it eliminates miscommunication and allows Dr. Omidi to effectively realize the patient's vision of desired hair restoration results.Because our surgeons and staff are committed to treating patients with the utmost consideration, Dr. Omidi and his staff will also regularly follow up after the procedure to monitor your smooth recovery. Some patients may experience moderate swelling around the injection sites, but it is expected to resolve in a short period of time. Typically, our patients are able to resume their daily activities immediately after the PRP treatment.
