I am 20. I have lots of acne scars and large pores. Can PRP injections help me out to get rid of this?

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

PRP with microneedling is a great treatment for acne scars and enlarged pores. I recommend 3-6 sessions of optimal results. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Hello,Thank you for your question. PRP injections allow us to use our own healing mechanisms to restore and replenish tissue injury and can even be helpful for hair restoration. However, for acne scarring, there are better alternatives to restoring the skin. Some treatments to consider include TCA cross, subscision, Bellafill injections, CO2 laser, and even chemical peels. These treatments in combination with one another will greatly improve your acne scarring and promote a healthy, smooth appearance. Do your research and schedule a consultation to discuss your options with a licensed dermatologist or cosmetic physician! All the best.
