Microneedling therapy with and without platelet-rich plasma.

Microneedling therapy is an increasingly popular treatment of several dermatologic conditions. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) may serve as a valuable adjunct to improve the regenerative effects of treatment. We review the evidence comparing the results of microneedling therapy with and without PRP. Based on the current preliminary literature, PRP appears to augment the cosmetic outcomes of microneedling without increasing the risk for adverse events.
