Are there any lifestyle restrictions before PRP (like exercise or sauna)?

Yes, avoid activities that significantly increase body temperature or blood flow to the scalp for at least 24 hours before treatment. This includes intense workouts, saunas, steam rooms, hot yoga and prolonged sun exposure. These activities may cause excessive sweating, increased blood flow, redness or scalp irritation, which may make the injection process more uncomfortable. They can also raise the risk of bruising and reduce the effectiveness of platelet concentration in the follicles. Keeping your scalp cool and calm before treatment helps the PRP process work more efficiently. Light exercise is fine, but avoid strenuous exertion.
