Does 1 Infini treatment equal a series of 3 regular microneedling treatments?

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.

Microneedling (preferably with Growth Factor Serum or PRP) is great for increasing collagen and treating fine lines and reversing the natural collagen loss we suffer as we age, but the procedure-- even a series of 3-- is not powerful enough to actually tighten skin and improve laxity in the lower face. 

If you have prominent wrinkles or sagginess that you want to correct-- jowls or lip lines for example-- then Infini is the way to go. Infini basically forces the skin to undergo a major remodel by creating innumerable tiny blasts of energy in the dermis, forcing it to replace those areas with a massive collagen build-up. A good rule of thumb is one Infini treatment per decade of life to reverse the changes of aging. One treatment will not get you there, but it will be a good start. Ideally, Infini treatments are done 4-6 weeks apart, but can go up to 3-4 months apart and still build results effectively. Most clinics will offer some kind of financing options and package pricing if you really want to do it. It is worth inquiring!
