Hi @Ruby252688! I see no contraindication in getting PRP microneedling on the face after getting a tattoo on another body part a month prior. All the best!

Hi and thank you for your question! While you should always check with your provider in case there are other contraindications, in general it is perfectly fine to do PRP Microneedling in face after having a tattoo in another area of your body. I hope it helps and good luck!

Hi there! I would think it would be fine to perform a tattoo on a separate area 1 month after microneedling with PRP on the face. I'm unware of any potential interaction. You may want to refer to your primary physician or aesthetician performing the microneedling for more advice. Hope this helps.

Hi, thank you for your question! I do not know of any contradictions of receiving prp with microneedling after receiving a tattoo on a different area of the body. As long as the tattoo is not in the same area as the microneedling this is safe to do.
