In 2016 I had 6 microneedling treatments (PRP/stem cell), & took a year off. Starting again & have received conflicting information about frequency of treatments. Some providers have recommended having treatments every 3 wks & others say 4-6, does this depend on intensity of treatments? I have severe rolling scars, some boxcar, & no icepick scarring. Generally speaking, how often should one w/ this scarring type receive treatment?
Answer: Microneedling We suggest that microneedling treatments for the face and body are spaced out 4-6 weeks apart.This time frame allows for optimal healing and great results!

Answer: Microneedling frequency In my practice, we also combine microneedling + PRP. Using your own plasma, which is rich in growth factors which will repair the skin and regenerate tissue. We recommend 3 treatments with 6 weeks between each for optimal skin healing. For best results, it is important to consult with a board certified dermatologist. Thank you for your question, best of luck!

Answer: Time between microneedling treatments In my clinic, I usually recommend microneedling treatment every 4-6 weeks. I believe this interval gives the skin enough time to heal between treatments. However, there no set guideline and other physicians may have a different opinion on this.
