In most patients, the redness and swelling is gone within a few days. Healing times will depend on the settings and who performs the procedure. I would definitely wait to do this after the wedding. All patients are different and healing times will vary.

Infini is a popular treatment, but I prefer Intensif, because the needles are non-insulated and give more robust results. Keep in mind, a combination approach will give the most improvement. These types of scars need a combination of lasers, microneedling/prp, subcision and fillers. It w...
