I lost a lot of volume in my face and have thin, sagging skin. I am looking to get rid of fine lines around my eyes and mouth and to tighten my skin. I would probably be a good candidate for a face lift, but can't afford the cost nor the downtime. At this time, I can only afford either 1 Infini treatment or a series of 3-4 regular microneedling treatments (which cost about the same where I live.) Which of the two would give me better results?
Answer: Volume Loss If volume loss is your primary concern, perhaps neither of these devices would give you the results you are looking for. A "non-surgical face lift" can be achieved using injectable fillers, such as the haluronic acid fillers, Restylane and Juvederm. These products yield instant results that, if performed by an experienced injector, will restore volume and give you an immediate lifted and refreshed appearance. To avoid the disappointment of wasted time and money, I recommend a face-to-face consultation for recommendations on how to meet your specific goals.

Answer: Infini vs microneedling In my opinion, the infini will produce better results than microneedling using a dermapen. The infini delivers high energy and this radio frequency energy penetrates deeper and at various levels of the dermis. This energy will stimulate collagen to tighten the skin. Realize, that any noninvasive device, will not deliver the same results as surgery.

Answer: Getting the most for your money--intensif and microneedling--Add PRP It is best you get a a cosmetic consultation. Without any photos it is hard to tell what would be best for you and it may take a series of treatments to see improvement for volume loss. I will say that I always do prp with microneedling treatments for best results. We like intensif over infini for microneedling/RF. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Infini vs. microneedling The benefit of Infini is the addition of the radiofrequency energy (RF) to the microneedling treatment. This delivers heat to the tip of the needle, allowing for a thermal tissue injury in addition to the mechanical injury of the needle. The body then generates a wound-healing response, which results in collagen and elastin production and cell turnover. Though this is certainly more powerful than microneedling alone, it is generally not done as a single treatment. In my practice, most patients will need two to four sessions, scheduled about 6 weeks apart. In terms of your specific issues, Infini is great for skin surface and texture issues (e.g., acne scarring and fine lines). It is less powerful as a tightening device. If you are in need of tightening, the best non-surgical option, in my opinion, is ThermiTight. This also uses RF technology but with a different delivery method. Best of luck and take care!

Answer: Infini vs. Needling There is a difference between Infini and straight micro-needling. The Infini device can deliver radiofrequency energy to different levels of the skin to promote collagen formation and improved appearance with some tightening. The micro-needling injury to the dermis does not use energy but does create some new collagen. The Infini itself is usually recommended not as a single treatment, but in a series of three treatments to get the best results. Micro-needling is also not meant to be a single session. So the choice may depend on cost and your own available time. I hope this helps you make a decision.
