How much does microneedling and PRP cost for acne scar treatment in the Los Angeles area?

Thank you for your
question. Prices vary depending on location and surgeon. Different prices are available based on combination of injections. I would advise you to
schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed
examination to discuss all possible treatment options and what your
expectations are. 

Cost will vary due to skill, expertise and technique. Keep in mind, a combination approach will give the most improvement. These types of scars need a combination of microneedling/prp with lasers, Cosmelan, subcision and fillers. It will take a series of treatments and may need some treatments to maintain. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an acne scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hello Bellebaby10,
The cost for Microneedling + PRP due vary. In our area Orange County, CA  the price varies between $500- $1200. You really would need to have an in person consult to determine how many treatments you will need for optimal results. I would not look for a practice by the price when it comes to aesthetic procedures. I would recommend looking for the office by the experience and results of the provider. Schedule some consultations. Ask to see before and after photos. I would schedule with the practice you feel most comfortable with. Many offices can bundle a package together which will bring the cost down for the patient.
Best to you,

Price dependent on many factors including specialist and type of microneedling. Find someone who has experience, and whom you are comfortable with at treating your face. Microneedling is both user dependent and method driven. Simple needles can be used, growth factors can be added after the procedure, including PRP, or controlled heating during the procedure. This controlled heating is delivered via RF, and is called RF microneedling. RF can then be delivered via insulated or insulated needles. Even the energy level, depths, density, pulse duration and so many other variables can be controlled. This together with the added benefits of growth factor infusion makes this one of the most complex procedures in procedural dermatology. I use everything from Dermapen, though to newer generation insulated and non-insulated devices including INFINI micro-needling radiofrequency, Intensif and others. Newer generation devices can provide an added advantage in some, but not all patients. Like most procedures, its 80% skill level of the specialist and 20% dependent on the brand of the energy device- microneedling system. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
