Vampire facial for boxcar acne scars with some ice pick scars? Or laser?

June 17, 2022
Asked By:Trueself2020 in Los Angeles, California

Hi doctors! I am slightly tan with moderate boxcar acne scars and some ice pick scars. How effective would multiple microneedling with PRP, vampire facial, sessions be for my issue? Especially in comparison to lasers, which I am also looking into. However, I learned that lasers may cause a permanent increase in redness. Yes, how effective would vampire facials be for my mainly boxcar acne scars? Thank you doctors!
