I drank a few Energy Drinks in the days after PRP for Hair Loss. Did I ruin my treatment?

HousePantherJul 4, 2018
During the first few days after having my first PRP treatment, I drank about four 16 oz. glasses of one of those concentrated beverage supplements in which you add a couple of squirts to a glass of water. I only realized after the fact that the beverage (Mi0 Energy) contains Niacin, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12. I'm so mad at myself. Do you think this was enough to derail my treatment?

Best to return to your provider. Should your provider not be an MD, I encourage you to visit a MD. If due to PRP hair regen, this is a rare occurrence. The procedure has a very high safety record when performed properly.  Wishing you a speedy recovery. Warmly, Arbella Sarkis, MD
