I would really like to get other doctors opinions please in wether Infini RF or laser will be useful for my type of acne scarring ? I have scheduled my first session in a clinic here locally in Canada and would really like to make sure I’m not being sold something that will do very little for me. It is worth it for me if I can get 50% improvement ( I am thinking of getting 4 sessions for 2000) Just for cheeks Would really appreciate your feedback
Answer: Recommend a combination of TCA cross, Resurfx, and Melapeel to help improve skin texture caused by scarring Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

Answer: Pits, ice picks and narrow box cars? Englewood Cliffs New Jersey Microneedle radiofrequency ( Infini) and fractionated low-density lasers should improve your acne scars. However, I believe that TCA Cross or punch excision would be a better starting point.Jeff Rapaport MD FAADRealself All-star

Answer: Infini vs Laser With acne scarring, the infini works better in my opinion. It's important to understand there will be only a 50% improvement in your appearance and usually 3 treatments are necessary for the best results.

Answer: Fraxel vs Infini for acne scars I your case, you have many ice pick scars which I would treat with TCA Cross. In general, Infini is a much better choice for acne scars than Fraxel. Infini goes deeper, has less downtime, and is safer on darker skin. I have upgraded to the Genius and this device is best RFM on the market. It has impedance feedback, sharper needles, better motor design, and energy delivered measurements. Sometimes clinics make recommendations based on what device they have purchased and not necessarily based on what is best for the patient. We have the Fraxel and we used to use for acne scars until the Infini was purchased. Our results are much better with the Infini.

Answer: Is Infini RF or Fraxel helpful for scarring? How long you have had the scar will effect the outcome of any treatment. For example if you have had scar for a long time, such as 10 to 15 years, any of the treatments; ablative, fractional or microneedling, will result in approximately a 20 to 30% improvement.Studies show that the earlier you treat the scar the better the results will be.We find Combining microneedling with PRP (platelet rich plasma) results in a much better outcome as the plasma is very rich in growth factors. If you choose a fraxel treatment, be sure that it is an ablative fraxel treatment as a non ablative procedure will not produce good results.
