Infini Radiofrequency

ORIGINAL POST

WORTH IT$1,000
I was interested in the concept of Infini Radio frequency and micro needling as it provides the benefits of two procedures in one. The treatment is superior to Fraxel laser as it also provides skin tightening benefits from the radio frequency and well and micro needling skin rejuvenation.
One of the great benefits it is lifts the brows and made my eyes look less hooded and more open.
I am very impressed with the improvement to my eye area, as I have been disappointed with results to my eye area from Dermapen and Fraxel procedures done in the past.

My skin is so firm and the improvement is amazing as the skin continues to improve up to 6 months from the last treatment.
My jawline and mid face has improved dramatically and I am extremely happy with my results

One the greatest benefits of the treatment is post care as it only causes redness that can be covered up by mineral make-up.
I have had Fraxel laser before and the post swelling around the eye area was dreadful and still noticeable after nearly one week after the procedure.
I am 52 years old and people compliment be regarding the condition and firmness of my skin

The nurse was fantastic as she was very gentle with the nerve block. I have had a nerve block with another procedure at another clinic and the nerve block was more painful that the Dermapen procedure. Conversely, the final Infini procedure was completed with out nerve block as Dr Hodgkinson has a new numbing cream from the USA and is much stronger that any other numbing cream previously used in Australia. Post treatment there was no swelling or bruising which came a a welcomed surprised to me as other procedures I had to take time off work. Even better my husband did not notice I had anything done as redness is easy to cover. Yes ladies it is really that easy! If you are looking for a top quality treatment with honest and professional advise I can highly recommend Dr Hodgkinson and his staff.

I'm a huge fan of the Infini too. It is gradually catching on in the US as the word gets out. With the correct depths and settings, it has is extremely safe with very little downtime. Results are very satisfactory according to our patients.
Dr. Weiner, I'd like to know your thoughts on my comment above. My doctor is very knowledgeable and one of the first doctors to use it, as you were. I'm very thin with no fat in my face or neck, but, at 61, I do have skin that is sagging. I also had Ultherapy done on the same area almost a year ago (by a different doctor) and have had no improvement from that, either. And prior to that, I had 6 treatments of Venus Freeze the year before, with no improvement.
Sounds like you probably need volume too. Not a fan of Venus Freeze, the RF placement with this is inconsistant and unpredictable.
Thank you so much for answering. I still have my 4th treatment set in 2 weeks. When would you expect to see improvement and after what period of time would you say you either see the results or there likely wouldn't be any? I really appreciate your input.
I would already expect results. Make sure good pics were taken. If you haven't had volumization, you need it. I frequently do Infini with Sculptra.
You are right, I could use volume. But, 2 things. First, I really wanted to see if I could get some of my old self back by rejuvenating what's there. I really like the idea of it coming back naturally. Unfortunately, that just may not happen. Second, I can't really afford to do the upkeep that constant injections would require. And I don't think I'm (mentally) ready for Sculptra. Maybe I'll start with some Restylane Silk around my mouth, but I'll still have the loose neck skin. Thank you so much, again, for your time.
I'm glad I found your post, as it is the only one I've seen on here about Infini RF. I'd like to know how many treatments you had and when you started noticing improvement. I have just had my 3rd (out of 4) treatment, spaced 1 month apart on my lower face and neck and I haven't seen one bit of improvement yet. I still have hope, but I'm a bit discouraged.
Also, please make sure this is Infini. Dermapen is not the same. No RF. It must be from Lutronic. Sometimes knock offs from China are used instead of Infini.

Thank you for sharing your experience with Infini, I am glad that you are happy with your results. Do yo have any before and after photos to share with the community?

To update here, I have had no results at all from the Infini. Since I did not respond to the other energy treatments I had, either, my doctor said I just look like I am a non-responder to these treatments. She also said she really wasn't seeing the results she hoped for in quite a number of the patients getting Infini on their necks.
Who is your doctor? Protocols have changed. As discussed before, without volume, which every 61 year old needs, it is very hard to improve things. I have never seen pictures either. Infini is like any other treatment, there are several variables that need to be correctly adjusted and performed: number of passes, energy level, depth, pulse duration, number of pulses. Basically, the machine is a small part of the outcome. Correct inputs and treatment will lead to successful results.
Our best area of improvements are seen in the neck area, see the photos on RealSelf.
