Hi! I just had my 2nd microneedling with PRP yesterday. My doc told me to avoid vitamin e for a few days before... I started those Olly beauty vitamins and forgot they have a blend of vitamin C & E... I don’t think I took them the day of the procedure but I took them the days before... is this a problem? What is the issue with vitamin e and PRP?
