How safe is micro needling?

August 22, 2017
Asked By:ShellMiha in Brighton, CO

I am seeing more and more evidence of people with destroyed skin after micro needling, while others report it to be wonderful. Why is this? have seen many cases with pictures of people who had great skin but after 2 micro needling treatments they have sagging skin and have aged about 20 years. Months later there is still no healing. This makes me incredibly cautious.. Is Infini RF any safer?
