Barely see any result 1 month after SkinPen microneedling with PRP. Any suggestions on pre or post care to enhance result?

MySelf_1891
I’m 38 Asian female with acne scars and underwent SkinPen microneedling with PRP (1.5mm) 4 weeks ago with a reputable dermatologist. I attached pictures taken on Day 4 and Day 34 showing no change. Should I be expecting at least some visible result or result is only visible after 3 treatments? I plan to have round 2 on Day 36 (5-weeks interval). I applied a lot of moisturizer and stay out of sun for the first 3 days. Is there any pre or post care product I should use to enhance the result?
