Pregnancy is one of the most beautiful time of life for many women, however, most women do not actually feel beautiful during this time. A majority of pregnant women struggle with body image during pregnancy. Some might feel uncomfortable with the weight gain while others feel anxious about the way they look. Many women face skin problems like acne, hyperpigmentation, dark spots and mask of pregnancy or dull and dry skin in general while they are pregnant. This is due to the hormonal changes and can usually be covered by makeup. Most doctors advise that you should avoid getting any procedures done during pregnancy to improve your skin condition. You will be advised to make a healthier diet, plenty of water and appropriate exercise for better skin rather than opting for any treatments that can potentially be harmful to your skin.
Obviously, products used in facials and chemical peels can be absorbed into the bloodstream and harm unborn babies in unpredictable ways. Similarly, gettings drips and injections for skin lightening is strictly advised against when pregnant. These can lead to complications in pregnancy and possibly cause deformities in the baby. Introducing anything foreign in your body is a risk that you will not want to take, but what if there was a technique in which we do not put any foreign compounds or chemicals on our skin or in our body. Yes, we are talking about PRP (Platelet-Rich-Plasma) therapy.
Plasma is a blood cell that works on sites of injury and helps in healing, regeneration, and production of structural protein. This makes them a suitable candidate for helping in skin rejuvenation. They work to heal scars, generate new cells and give fresh and younger-looking skin.
In PRP your blood is withdrawn, platelets are separated from it and then this plasma which has a higher concentration of your own platelets is introduced back into your body either with micro-needling or mesotherapy. Logic dictates that since you are not introducing anything foreign in your body, it should be safe for pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers. However, injections no matter how tiny they are bare the chances of infection. Even if you take all the precautions and avoid getting any infections, it can not be said for sure if a higher concentration of platelets could be a threat to pregnancy or the baby. It is a serious matter and no risks must be taken based on uneducated guesses. It’s best if you seek consultation from a qualified and expert doctor who has appropriate certification. A certified practitioner will be better able to assess your history and based on your case will give you the right advice.
