PRP + Microneedling — Course of 3

Service Description

WHAT IT IS Three combined PRP and microneedling sessions for acne scarring, booked and paid as a course, spaced four to six weeks apart. WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE IT This is the protocol at which combined PRP and microneedling produces its documented benefit for scarring. Three sessions allow each round of collagen formation to complete and build on the last, and booking as a course saves against individual sessions. WHAT WE AIM FOR Substantially improved scar depth and skin texture by the end of the course, with the result continuing to develop for three months afterwards. WHO IT SUITS · Committing to the strongest regenerative scar protocol · Moderate acne scarring · Wanting both scar improvement and overall skin quality · Preferring treatment using your own biological material TREATMENT DETAILS Sessions: 3, four to six weeks apart Appointment: 75–90 minutes each Discomfort: Blood draw plus numbed microneedling Downtime: Redness for 24–48 hours each time Full result: 3 months after the final session Saving: Against three individual sessions FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Can this be combined with subcision or TCA CROSS? Yes, and for mixed scarring it usually should be. Dr Selvi will sequence the treatments so they complement rather than overload the skin — typically addressing the structural scars first. What if I need more than three sessions? Dr Selvi will tell you the likely total at consultation. Further sessions can be added, and the assessment after the third will be honest about what more would achieve. What result can I realistically expect? Improvement, not erasure. No treatment removes acne scarring completely, and any clinic telling you otherwise is misleading you. A realistic outcome from a well-planned course is typically a 40 to 70 per cent improvement — the difference between scarring that is the first thing someone notices and scarring you have to look for. Why do I need more than one type of treatment? Because acne scars are not all the same. Ice-pick, boxcar and rolling scars have different structures and respond to different techniques. Applying one treatment to every scar type is the single most common reason scar treatment underdelivers. Do I need my acne under control first? Yes, absolutely. Treating scars while new ones are still forming wastes your money. Dr Selvi will get the active acne controlled before starting scar work — and will say so even if it delays the treatment you came in for. Is scar treatment suitable for darker skin? Yes, with appropriate technique and settings. The main consideration is post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which is more likely in richly pigmented skin. Dr Selvi may prime your skin, adjust the approach, or space sessions further apart. How important is sun protection? Critical. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 50 throughout the course and for months afterwards. Freshly treated skin pigments readily, and sun exposure is the most common cause of a disappointing scar treatment result. Who will treat me? All treatments at Dr Selvi Clinic are carried out by a doctor, following a face-to-face consultation and an assessment of your suitability.
