A board certified dermatologist performed 3 treatments. There was blood. My scarring is mild. Each treatment has been 6-8 weeks apart. No prp or growth factors were used, but to my understanding, results should still be there. What gives?
Answer: Microneedling results Microneedling best results are seen after a series of treatments. We recommend minimally 4 for mild scarring or rejuvenation. Certainly there is variability from patient to patient, but you should see some results. Because microneedling works by stimulating collagen it takes time to see results. You've had 3 so you should see something. I would request comparison of before and after photos. You may also need more treatment for optimal results. I also recommend adding PRP.
