If you don't get both at the same time, a week after fractional laser is good enough time for microneedling treatments.Dr Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member

Microneedling will increase local microvscular tissue changes which increase erythema (redness) during the healing phase. Good skin care and sun protection is important in the healing phase. Dr H Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member

Hi @tatsok1! Microneedling with PRP can be performed very closed to the lash line if the eyelid is pulled away from the eyeball. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!
