Infini Needling Made Me Look Like Grated Cheese

No you haven't. My first treatment I was so swollen my eyes were slits and I had "grids" for at least 3 weeks. Infini does its "magic" exactly by creating wounds that make your skin build new collagen. I've had 4 in all (full face) and I have major improvements in my cheeks, neck and jawline. I took a lot of vitamin C (helps with collagen rebuilding), zinc (ditto), drank tons of fluids and had protein at every meal. Always sun screen, mellow products like hyaluronic acid serum and creams with major niacinimide content (Olay regenerist) helped me. The biggest propaganda espoused by the company that leads to all this panic, that you'll be fine in a day or 2, is such a disservice. It took at least a month for it all to calm down.

This is temporary and will pass. I'm sorry the treatment was so painful (there are ways around this), but you've seen the results before. It will take some time (a few weeks), so take a deep breath, call your doctor if you need reassurance, and have faith in you previous experience.
Send me pictures if you'd like.

I myself just had Infini a few days ago, I had numbing injections in my face by the PS prior to procedure done by esthetician. I am 58 yo who had it done primarily to prevent any sagging issues at the jaw line and tighten under my chin. Also hoping to tighten around eye area and forehead. You look young. I had some mild scarring around my chin and mouth from blemishes, they said may these be helped by the Infini. My face, post procedure, looked similar to yours. I was given the "red" component of the Skin Medica TNS Essential Serum, which contains growth factor. I feel my skin has improved a lot since the procedure as far as redness and track marks. I think you can purchase just the growth factor from Skin Medica. My esthetician seemed to have a lot of confidence in the product. I wore makeup and went out to dinner last night. I would never do the procedure without numbing injections, although those were not totally pleasant--they did run some little device on my face at the same time, to make the injections more tolerable. All the best--you will be fine!

I preform treatments that are similar to the one you have had.
Just try not to focus on what it looks like now, down time is never fun. Let's just be honest, to get more dramatic results you will need to have procedures such as the ones you have had. Finish your series of treatments so that you can reach the potential that you are seeking.
Good luck!

I have permanent scarring it looks like large pores but I face it's all the entry holes of the needles. My skin was better before this treatment

What was your purpose of doing this procedure? And can you please update us with the final results after the scars healed? Thank you

How are your results now? I'm considering micro needling for acne scars, thanks.

I'm over five months post treatment. It take up to a year for scars to fully heal. If you skin is try olive oil. If just damaged try Vit C with Hyd. oil. Sorry you had t his experience. There is no info on line about how these machines can damage your skin except for this site. Please keep us posted.
Faceobsessed.

I am going in today to see the lading lady at the clinic. They are an amazing clinic but i feel that this procedure was recommended to me without assessing my concerns properly. I am 29, never had acne, pretty good skin in general apart from the picking scars and chicken pock scars I have on my cheeks, I didn't even know you could just do Infini in one area which would have suited my needs so much more. I had to do all my own research and found this website so helpful. I just wish i never did it and spent my hard earn money on something better! For the cost ($800 per session) You should see amazing results! My skin is genuinely worse and I am very angry.

I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with this laser, my dermatologist recommended it to me too but he's charging $3600 for 3 treatments! What a rip off lol

Yes, this treatment sucks big time. I had this treatment done on my face too. I had it done on 20Feb2017. The treatment just created other skin problems. Hyperpigmentation, dark mark and my other scars are deepened, elongated and my skin becomes more rough. The treatment is not worth the money.

Good to know, hope you continue to heal & feel better about your skin in a few more months! Good luck with everything!

I had it done too. I had 2 treatments and it cost 1500.00. It didn’t leave marks or anything but I feel my wrinkles are worse and I look worse now then before. I would never recommend it!!
