It depends when you drank the wine. Drinking 2 glasses of wine just before your visit, may render you unable to legally provide consent for a procedure. Alcohol can also lead to bruising for a procedure that normally does not cause bruising. If you are nervous about having a procedure, consider Valium or Xanax prescribed by the doctor and having someone take you home from the procedure.
Wine before PRP hair restoration should be fine. It should have no ill effect on the procedure. Is probably best to avoid it in the future but I do not feel it ruined the procedure.
No it wont affect your PRP. However next time try not to consume alcohol before any kind of treatment.
Hi and thanks.I don't believe the wine will affect your PRP procedure. However, be sure to avoid aspirin and ibuprofen.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO
There is an increased risk for bleeding. The research performed and the anecdotal evidence would suggest that thickness of hair and density can improve with PRP injections. The number of sessions as well as the quality of PRP obtained will vary considerably physician to physician. Twee
In my opinion, drinking wine prior to a PRP session should not affect the results of the treatment. There is a small possibility that you may have an increased amount of bleeding. Find a PRP expert. Ask to see photos.PRP hair md.com

The wine should have no effect on the results of your PRP treatment. However, it is inadvisable to drink alcohol immediately prior to any surgical procedure, or prior to giving informed consent.
Although the wine may cause increased bleeding, the good news is that the PRP solution can help to stop it. Normally, you should be given an avoidance sheet prior to surgical procedures. We tell our patients to avoid aspirin, ibuprofen products, vitamin E, etc. plus avoid alcoholic beverages.

The timing of your PRP injections is unclear. You may not have reached full benefit of your treatment yet. Dermarolling at home is good but microneedling plus PRP would be better and an additive to your PRP injections. Amnion can be added to your PRP injections for a more...
A worsening of alopecia is unlikely to be related to PRP treatments. PRP alone may not be sufficient to treat androgenic alopecia. PRP is a very promising non surgical therapeutic option for patients with hair loss and can be a very valuable adjuvant treatment modality along with minoxidil and...
