I had my second infini treatment 3 days ago and still have redness and swelling. Is this normal? (Photo)

After Infini, people usually have 1-2 days of swelling and 3-5 days of redness. Most people are completely back to normal by 3-5 days if they are given a growth factor serum after the treatment and to use for a few days after. Recovery takes a few days longer if not. Some people get those white heads, but they are less common. Stay away from petroleum products such as Aquaphor (and many other products that can cause acne) because those will clog pores and create those white heads. Clindamycin topical can help those go away-- your doc can prescribe that to you. Hang in there-- they will go away!

It is normal to have redness and swelling after 3 days from your Infini treatment. It varies according to settings and patient. The white heads should be addressed with either topical or oral antibiotics. I have minimized this problem after my treatments by using sterile technique during the procedure and applying clindamycin gel when complete.

Redness is normal, pustules or whiteheads is not. I personally would take viral and bacterial swabs just in case. All my patients receive a 5 day course of antibiotics after intense INFINI, your specialist who performed this procedure will know how to manage any potential complications.
