infini healing process
Day 1 Tuesday
The morning after my infini treatment I was twice as swollen as I was when I left the doctor's office. My upper lip also swelled up pretty good. But still the outside layer of my skin didn't seem very irritated at all. Just a little sensitive and a little warm when I had to bend over to pick something up. All in all I would have to say that I was pleased with what was happening, the swelling indicated to me that my body was responding to the treatment while the outer layer of skin still seemed pretty calm.
As a side note I did not wash my face the night of my infini treatment. I actually waited about 48 hours before using a cleanser. Since I had PRP and I wanted to make sure I would get the full benefit from it. I did however pat some water on my skin in the shower about 24 hours after my PRP. And started applying the defenage Tuesday night
Day 2 wednesday
My swelling was going down. I now look about the same as when I left the office. I had a couple spots on my face that were a little patchy rashy just around my mouth and chin but nothing to bad. I attempted to wear makeup this day but it made my skin look worse because I starting to peel. My peeling was pretty superficial not at all like when you have a laser peel. I felt like I could rub it and it would fall off.
Day 3 Thursday
Things were looking good. Just a little swelling left and some flaking. I decided that I would do a very light exfoliation treatment in the shower. I used some microdermabrasion crystals that I bought off ebay and barely applied any pressure to remove the flaking skin. I went out for the day with no makeup on and felt fine in public.
Day 4 Friday (today)
I went back to work with makeup on. I would say that my skin look 90 percent back to normal with still just a little rash on the right side of my upper lip. The pores in the front of my face do look a
lot small and the texture on my face looks noticeably smoother. I am excited to see how my skin will look in the next couple of months! I will post the rest of my picture ASAP

Dr. Swengel and his staff were amazing. Doctor Swengel spent a lot of time during my consultation explaining things and answering my questions.
