THE COMBINATION THERAPY OF MICRONEEDLING AND SUBCISION WITH PLATELET RICH PLASMA (PRP) VERSUS PLATELET RICH FIBRIN MATRIX (PRFM) ON ROLLING AND BOXSCAR TYPE ACNE SCAR (CASE SERIES)

Scarring is an unfortunate and frequent complication of acne vulgaris, resulting in significant psychological distress for patients. They have been subclassified into ice pick, boxcar, and rolling scars. With atrophic scars, the ice pick type represents 60%– 70% of total scars, the boxcar 20%–30%, and rolling scars 15%–25%. Subcision and microneedling are some of therapeutic modalities in the form of acne scar. Plateletrich plasma (PRP) has been evaluated for its potential benefits in the treatment of acne scars. In addition to platelets and their products, the natural wound response requires the presence of a fibrin matrix (PRFM), which enhances the delivery of growth factors.
