I am looking into Microneedling with RF, specifically the INFINI, to help improve my acne scarring. Is this the best tool for Microneedling out there? The plastic surgery office that I called has the aesthetician perform this procedure. Should I be looking for a practice where the doctor himself performs it? Or is that unusual?
Answer: INFINI and acne scarring Thanks for your question. Yes, it has been proven effective for improving acne scarring. The INFINI delivers thermal energy down to the dermis and eliminates any damage to the skin’s surface, allowing for faster healing. The thermal energy is transmitted in multiple passes, at various depths, resulting in maximized outcomes. My patients with bad acne scarring have seen incredible results with this procedure.

Answer: Infini for acne scarring Hi there, I do believe that Infini RF Microneedling is a great choice for acne scarring. In my clinic, one of my 4 RN's perform the Infini treatments, always followed by LaseMD (a Lutronic Laser). I would recommend choosing an experienced technician with Infini as scarring needs to be specifically and aggressively targeted. I would recommend 4 treatments separated by 4-6 weeks apart with yearly maintenance. LaseMD is also great for active acne treatment as well.

Answer: Infini for acne scars Yes I do believe that INFINI is a great choice for acne scarring. It is more aggressive than traditional microneedling due to it adding energy from RF technology. Adding this energy means less treatments needed for desired results in comparison to microneedling without RF.

Answer: Infini for Acne After evaluating your pictures, it seems that Infini would be a great procedure to treat your scars. There are many lasers that I personally have had luck with in regards to acne scarring. Infini has minimal downtime and provides great results. I would find a provider you are comfortable with to discuss your treatment expectations. Hope this helps.

Answer: Standard Medical Microneedling (Manual Or Automated) Works Well For Depressed Acne Scars. In the July, 2015 issue of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, in an peer-reviewed journal article entitled "Microneedling Therapy for Atrophic Acne Scars--An Objective Evaluation" the authors concluded "Skin microneedling is a simple, inexpensive office modality of treatment for the management of post-acne atrophic scars. It has favorable advantages as the epidermis remains intact, decreasing most of the risks and negative side effects of other invasive modalities for treatment of pos-acne scars." My over fifteen years of personal experience in both my Upper East Side Manhattan practice and my Israel satellite facility using both traditional manual dermal rollers and automated devices (Dermapen) echoes and supports their conclusions. So, I ask, why the need for more expensive radiofrequency microneedling treatments?
