Infini/Genius and PRP
This is my second Infini/PRP treatment and I couldn't be happier! The first time about 2 years ago I did the regular infini treatment and was very pleased with the results! This time my doctors office had just upgraded there infini machine to a infini Genius. I guess this device is suppose to give more control on where and how much RF gos into the skin. My doctor also changed his numbing technique to using a cannula to delivery the numbing medicine under the skin, which is so great for people with acne scaring because it actual subsides the scare and release the tether that pulls the scare down. Before we got stared with the treatment I told the doctor that I also hoped to get some lift out of my treatment . I am one of those patients who likes to get the most bang for my buck. I can say that he really did listen to this request.
when I was done with my treatment I was a little startled when i looked in the mirror because I was pretty swollen. My face did not have very much needle marks tho even less then regular infini which was nice. I decided to stick around the office for about an hour just to see if I was going to get more swollen . The doctor gave me a few tables of prednisone to take home just in case (which I never ended up using). after being upright for after 30 minted I could tell that the swelling was starting to going down. By an hour I felt ready to leave. I chose to left my body have the extra swelling instead of taking the prednisone because swelling is the bodies natural healing response and I didn't want to interfere with that. That night I double up my pillow to keep my head elevated and I was less swollen in the morning. It took about 3 days for the majority of the swelling to go almost completely away and I experience a sightly longer recovery process this time around. However I believe this is because my doctor spent about 20 minutes going under the skin and doing subcision on my acne scare . This alone I have read will create swelling. my skin peeled a little on day 4 and by day five I felt completely confidant in make-up again . I am a little over 2 weeks out since I had the treatment and I can say it has made a big deference. My skin looks tighter, smoother, scare are less noticeable and my skin is definitely more lifted. I would say between infini and infin/ Genius both are great but the main Deference between the two treatments that I see at this point is my skin is more lifted after the Genius. I also really really believe in the benefits PRP and think combining these treatments are brilliant because I think this it make a huge deference in the collagen regrowth.
Finally I wouldn't consider go to any other office for this type of treatment because the doctor and the whole staff at refined dermatology are amazing, thorough plus reasonable priced.
