Question

Would laser, mimicking needling, be more effective around the lips, chin,eyes and jowl area than fillers? If so, what sort of laser?How long do results last?

David P. Melamed, MD · Answer

Advanced Platelet-Rich Plasma has shown to be very effective for fine lines around these areas.  It has collagen building effect and skin tightening that yields over lasting period of time.  Advanced PRP is not micro-needling in that the Platelet-Rich Plasma and growth factors are directly injected into deeper facial areas, around eyes, chin and neck where as micro-needling is just smearing blood over face superficially or just use vitamins and serum.
