Face Looks Awful
Ruined my Face
I had a total of three treatments after the first treatment I was left with red marks and brown spots all over my face . I was told that perhaps the second treatment should be done by someone else who had more experience when I came back for the second treatment it was the same nurse who had done the first treatment. At that point I should have said I wanted someone else but I did not want to hurt anyone's feelings. The second treatment was even worse than the first I believe it destroyed the fillers that I had in my cheeks which made me look sunken and again I had grid marks and broke out in cystic acne. I was told that this was a good response and that sometimes and people who have had acne in the past this happens. I am 61 years old and have never had acne so I did not consider this a good response. I spoke to the office and they told me to try someone new with experience Who had good results and I went back to my third treatment. This treatment actually was much better and I left the office looking as though nothing had been done. No red marks no grid marks but it was on able to undo the damage that was done by the first two treatments. A word of warning to anyone considering this please make sure you are going to someone who has a great deal of experience with the machine. I am not sure what the outcome would have been it's all three treatments were done by someone who knew how to handle the machine. My last treatment was in February and I am currently seeing a dermatologist to try to undo all of the damage that was done by this procedure. I am using hydroquinone and Retin-A for the hyper pigmentation I have had fillers to replace the volume and I have a consultation next week To deal with all the scars and indentations that were left from the machine.

I went to a local plastic surgeon to ask for fillers. The doctor I had been using has moved out of the area. When I had my consultation with the new doctor he told me I did not need any more fillers but he thought I could benefit from a new treatment Infini Rf with PRP. They were running a special $3000 for three treatments. I was told there would be little to no downtime and it was a totally safe procedure. The procedure itself went smoothly the nurses who worked on me were kind and seemed knowledgeable but when I got home and looked in the mirror I was shocked. I had grid marks all over my neck and jaw which seem to get worse over the next two days. On the fifth day I broke out in cystic acne all over the lower half of my face. Today I noticed my cheeks look sunken as though I have lost fat. Since I did have filler in my face it is possible that the filler has been destroyed and not my facial fat ( that is what I'm praying for because I can always get more filler ). I have been in contact with the nurse who performed the procedure and she assures me that this is sometimes seen in patients but I have not seen any other posting warning about these side effects. At this point I have already paid for two more procedures I am not sure what I should do. I do not think I can get my money back but maybe I can have the money put toward fillers for another procedure.
