PRP facial, with Factor V Leiden; would it be dangerous?

August 4, 2016
Asked By:eafowler3 in Ash Flat, AR

I really want to have a PRP facial, but I have Factor V Leiden, heterozygous . In an advertisement I've seen it said that no one with clotting issues should have one. I'm 60 years old and have never had any problems. I was tested because my father has it. Would it be dangerous?
