Is it ok to have PRP treatments a week apart for different areas like the scalp and a week later the face?

March 5, 2018
Asked By:mark73 in Laval, QC

I’m planning on doing a PRP treatment for the scalp, and a week later for the face. Would the healing process on the second treatment be less effective due to the body working on the first one, since it’s very close to each other?
