Is there hope for recovery after being burned by microneedling RF and can I use filler? (Photos)

Asked By:Solutions please in Beverly Hills, California

I did microneedling Rf over 2 months ago and my face got burned. I had smooth skin before, but now I’m left with these indentations in my face which look like atrophic scars. The photos show my progress in the past month. Is there hope for a full recovery and how much longer will it take? Approximately how long should I wait to do regular microneedling with prp to help me heal? What’s the fastest way to get my skin back (and honestly my life) Your help is greatly appreciated. Do burns of these kind microneedling Rf cause permanent scars? If not, approximately when will they heal? I was wondering if you put a filler like Juvederm, to fill the acne scars, will the microneedling Rf be less effective in helping build collagen? Should the microneedling Rf be done before of after filler?
