Cancellation Policy

Section 1

DESCRIPTION OF TREATMENT

This treatment involves the collection of your blood (approximately 20-60 ml), then your blood is spun down using a centrifuge to separate out the plasma and platelet portion using the separator gel as a special filter. The PRP portion of your blood is then injected back into your skin to stimulate new collagen production, and to re-energize your cells into rejuvenating themselves. The product injected is 100% your own blood by-product (autologous).

Section 2

SIDE EFFECTS

You will likely experience mild to moderate swelling of the treated area. This will last for about 12-24 hours; ice or cold compresses can be applied to reduce swelling if required. You may notice a tingling sensation while the cells are being activated. In rare cases, skin infection may occur, which is easily treated with an anti-biotic.

​

This includes SCC, BCC and melanoma, systemic cancer, chemotherapy, steroid therapy, dermatological diseases affecting the face (i.e. porphyria), blood disorders and platelet abnormalities, anticoagulation therapy (i.e. Warfarin)

I understand that due to the natural variation in quality of Platelet Rich Plasma, results will vary between individuals. I understand that although I may see a change after my first treatment, I may require a series of up to 6 sessions to obtain my desired outcome.

 

This procedure and side effects has been explained to me including alternative methods as have the advantages and disadvantages.

​

I am advised that thought good results are expected, the possibility and nature of complications cannot be accurately anticipated and that, therefore, there can be no guarantee as expressed or implied either as to the success or other result of the treatment.

I am aware that the PRP treatment is not permanent as natural degradation will occur over time.

 

I have had the opportunity to ask any questions about the treatment including risks or alternatives and acknowledge that all my questions have been answered in a satisfactory manner and that all blanks were filled in prior to my signature.
