Question

PRP microneedling vs chemical or laser peels. Which is best for skin quality on large areas like thighs/ abdomen? My skin on entire body suffered from eating disorder. Also, what can I do at home to help it along? Thank you.

A combination approach would give the most improvement to skin quality. I recommend microneedling combined with prp, lasers, and skin care to give improvement.  I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

I have been seeing amazing results with microneedling combined with PRP so would recommend this over chemical or laser peels.  It is also safer since PRP is harvested from your own body.  I would recommend using a moisturizer with either alpha hydroxy acid or retinol to improve the quality of your skin.  Consult with a board-certified and experienced cosmetic dermatologist.

Hello FsSanDiego,
Thank you for your question and picture. We have been seeing amazing results to full body with microneedling. Our patients have been so happy with their results. Microneedling done with PRP really helps tighten and improve overall texture and clarity of the skin.
Hope this helps!
