Microneedling vs Microneedling RF for Acne Scars. Which would provide more acne scar reduction? (Photos)

Asked By:helpforscars in Simi Valley, CA

Hi, I have type 4 skin and have acne scars from ~10 years ago. They are mostly on my forehead/temples and are box car/ice pick scars. I have been interested in microneedling (with or without RF) with PRP for CIT to help reduce the appearance of my scars. Microneedling with RF is about twice the cost as traditional microneedling. Would I see more acne scar reduction from the additional traditional microneedling Tx I can afford given my budget (approximately 6 trad vs 3 RF)? Thank you!
