Does microneedling for acne scars require as much routine maintenance as it does for for fine lines, wrinkles, etc?

Microneedling works great for acne scars.  4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart is what we recommend to our patients for scaring.   The scars do not come back after they are gone. Every patient is different, some of our patients commit to regular sessions once every few months and others just once or twice a year after their initial treatments.   Your practitioner should be able to come up with a maitence plan that best fits your personal needs and budget.  Best of luck to you! 

Thank you for your question. Microneedling is an excellent treatment for acne scars. What I would recommend is 3-4 sessions every 4-6 weeks. If you decide at any point to stop treatments, the scars will not come back. As far as maintenance goes, there is no regimen you have to follow. Some patients will do treatments once or twice a year or every few months after the initial series of treatments. Your practitioner will be able to help you plan a good maintenance regimen.
