Is PRP (Platlete Rich Plasma) safe for me? had co2 laser resurfacing, am seeking repair to damage caused by procedure. (photos)

in our practice PRP is essential for would healing post ablative laser like co2.  if you were   burned or are unhappy with results, PRP with other lasers like nonablative fraxel or viva can be used with PRP to fix the problem. Please see a laser expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

PRP is extremely safe. A small amount of your blood is collected and separated into the platelet rich plasma layer. Your own plasma is then reinjected into areas of scarring or added topically after resurfacing. Please discuss with your physician who knows you best and can give you more specific advice. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon
