Microneedling w/ PRP ~ Not RF. Can this cause fat loss?

mlthom123
Am surprised some providers DO NOT believe lasers can cause fat atrophy. Yes, they can with some patients; I've sadly experienced it. Deep plane FL scheduled September. My PS does not microneedle, but gave blessing to go ahead in July with another provider. Am 70 years old, acne scars/wrinkling. Understand why PRP is advised to do along with microneedling, as aids healing. Still concerned about fat atrophy. Can microneedling cause fat loss? Not sure length of needles used. Ty.
