How frequent or far apart should microneedling/PRP sessions be performed?

rainbow5
Hi. I am going to start microneedling/PRP sessions for acne scarring/uneven skin tone. Initially I will start with 3 sessions, knowing I may need to do more for desired results. One doctor told me they should be done every 2 weeks for optimal results. Another has said every 4-6 weeks. A bit confused about the discrepency? I have Asian skin.
