Is it beneficial to get microneedling and PRP treatment if I have a HA Juvederm filler?

Question

5 weeks apart? Is there benefit in healing scars if they already have a filler supporting them? I know the skin gets really dry and skinny after microneedling due to water loss so will this affect the filler or is it somehow synergistic? OR should i just get filler after i'm done with my microneedling treatments.

Hello and thank you for your question. It is always best to see you face to face for a consult and examination however in this case filler and needling usually work on different concerns and areas- needling is great for surface improvements in the skin whereas filler can be used deeper to support. I hope that helps answer your question. Always seek an experienced and qualified medical professional for these treatments. Very best wishes

Hello! Microneedling can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as acne scarring. Microneedling causes very small injuries to the tissue, which stimulates your body's natural healing abilities, leading to increased production of collagen. It sounds like you're doing microneedling for acne scarring(?), so I would recommend completing your prescribed number of microneedling treatments per your provider, then consider HA fillers if you haven't seen the full results you're looking for. At our practice, we have the Exceed microneedling device, which is the first dual-indicated microneedling device that is FDA cleared for both fine lines/wrinkles AND acne scars! The addition of a medical grade skincare regimen, like Alastin, which we also carry, has Tri-Hex technology - it helps clears out old collagen, and stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin for improved treatment results!
