Skinfinity RF 5 weeks ago- are track marks and pigmentation permanent? (photos)

Asked By:sunrise57 in Hollywood, CA

I had Skinfinity RF (machine by eclipse) done a little over 5 weeks ago for acne scarring . The machine was set to 70w and there was another setting that was set to 4. The nurse did 4 passes (with exception of some areas). Now I have track marsk from the hand piece and hyper pigmentation. Is this damage permanent? I've sent the provider images, but all I get back is, "it will all go away". Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!
