Can I get the PRP facial if I have genital herpes?

Thank you for your question.
Yes, you can get PRP facial treatments if you have genital herpes.

Yes, you can have a prp facial. After a vampire facial, I recommend combining prp with microneedling, with lasers, sculptra for collagen building and ultherapy for skin tightening to get the best results. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer.

You can have PRP Facial if you have genital herpes, it is only if you have a outbreak on your face that you would not be able to receive treatment. Your doctor may suggest to take antivirals during treatment to avoid any outbreaks. 

Thank you for your question.  There should be no contraindications to PRP to the face despite a history or genital herpes.  If you have a herpetic outbreak on the face / lips, wait until the lesions are resolved.  If you simply have a history of facial lesions, ask your dermatologist or plastic surgeon to pre-treat with an antiviral medication such as acyclovir or valcyclovir. Best of luck,Suneel Chilukuri, M.D.Houston, Texas

Yes you can get PRP facial if you have genital herpes.  If you do have a current breakout I would take antibiotics and wait at least a week after before getting the facial

Hi nini2211,You can have microneedling even if you have genital herpes. In case you have facial breakouts, you need to take prophylactic acyclovir about 5 days before the treatment.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.
