1st PRP facelift injections seemed to go well + rather painless w/numbing cream. Noticed subtle results, but paired injections w/ mneedling 1st go. Today I had a 2nd PRP lift, different medspa. They activated PRP w/ calcium chloride. Didn’t think this occurred during 1st. They said this was a key step.
