Dear docs, I recently had two Infini RF treatments for my acne scars (attached pics don't show them that well). Unfortunately, I have had no visible improvement. I asked the doc for the treatment parameters. Perhaps one of you doctors has some suggestions as to how the settings could be adjusted? Parameters: 21.10.16 (time, depth and level) 1. 220, 2 mm, 6 2. 200, 1.5 mm, 6 3. 150, 0.5 mm, 4 4. 150, 0.1 mm, 4 2.12.2016 1. 150, 2 mm, 7 2. 130, 1.5 mm, 5 3. 90, 1.0 mm, 5 4. 30, 0.5 mm, 3

Answer: INFINI tretament I see improvement of the skin. INFINI has very good results in acne scarring.The setting of device are now designed as low med and high and the treatment settings depends on the condition and the area to be treated. To help the active lesions a combination of chemicals peels and Retin A is a good option. For scars PRP and Bellafill are good. LM

Answer: Infini for acne scars These are not standard settings. If I'm reading right, you had some at 90 and 30 ms and at 0.5 and 0.1mm? I usually don't go under 100ms, and never at depths of 0.5 and 0.1mm. The US should have all machines switched over to the new user interface that now has built in low, med, and high settings. Depending on the person, settings should be medium for the deeper settings and the more superficial settings at low. I go from 2.5-1.5 on the cheeks in lighter skin patients and 2.5-2mm on darker skin. You need to have better control of your acne too. This is partially treated with the Infini, however Retin A, chemical peels, and oral antibiotics might be needed. I have found the Infini to be the best treatment for acne scars, well ahead of lasers.
