Can I do micro needling with PRP 8 months after rhinoplasty?

Question

Is it safe to do micro needling with PRP 8 months post primary rhino? I'm also planning on using laser Genesis because my nose is veiny and mottled post surgery. Is this a safe amount of time to wait?

Hi @Gioa! Yes, PRP microneedling is safe 8 months after a primary rhinoplasty. Lasers are also safe 8 months after a rhinoplasty. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

in my opinion can be done immediately after without harming but if you are concerned you can give it 2-4 weeks (as long as not aggressive)
For facial rejuvenation I would suggest a combination approach of :

1) skin care with products and PRP/microneedling
2) PDT light therapy few times a month with growth factors
3) laser treatments like clear and brilliant regularly and a few times a year Fraxel, Viva, Co2/Erbium
4) Sculptra injections a few times a year for collagen production with fillers like juvederm/restylane/belotero/radiesse/bellafill
5) thermage/ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone based instalift threads for lifting
6) botox every 2-3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at restBest, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your message! You should be safe to have PRP given the length of time after your operation! I would recommend a consultation with your provider to ensure you are a candidate for the procedure!

Thank you for your question, since you are 8-month post-op, it is safe to start PRP treatments. Please make sure you seek treatment from a board-certified dermatologist.

You should be healed by now from your rhinoplasty. So a treatment with microneedling and plasma rich platelet (PRP) will be safe. Good luck!

Anjali Dhar, MD · Answer

yes. You should be completely healed and i see no harm in doing this now. It should be completely safe
