Today I will be 48 hours post microneedling. Unfortunately, I have very sensitive skin And am more red than expected. (no needles larger than 1.5 were used on my face). It is improving, but very slowly. I would like to speed up the healing process. They used the collagen P.I.N & I am using 4 products the from the companies induction therapies- a serum, moisturizer, sunscreen primer and gentle cleanser. Would PRP applied to my face now make any difference? Or does it only help directly after?
