Can I do CO2 laser a week after PRP?

Question

I've done these procedures in the past, several months apart.

William Groff, DO · Answer

It is not recommend to do these treatment so close together. I suggest waiting 30 days in between treatments.  You want to be sure that your skin is completely healed from one treatment before proceeding to the next treatment. I recommend scheduling a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist who is an expert in laser skin resurfacing for a formal assessment. They will help you determine the right treatments and treatment frequency.  In my practice we have over 45 lasers, including CO2 lasers, that we use in combination with microneedling and other treatment modalities to customize treatment plans for each of our patients.

There  is no contraindication to performing CO2 laser and PRP one week apart. In fact, many experts combine the two at the same visit.Jeff Rapaport MD FAADRealself All-star
