Hi friends. I forgot to update this. I am not going back for a third round. I think honestly there is improvement that not enough for me to suffer through that genius again and spend the money. I think my left cheek started off worse but reacted better and looks better now. Where is I don™t think there is much improvement on my right. I could be wrong because obviously it™s myself and I over analyze my flaws  

I'm really sorry to hear that :(

RF microneedling is not cheap and painless. Maybe take a break from all of this and then come back with a new mindset of whether or not you want to keep pursuing this. It really is a tough journey.

I'd also like to ask people here what they think about Dr. Weiner. Honest feedback is appreciated. I only know of him from this forum and YouTube and some posts online. I'm wondering if people are getting good results from him and if the costs are worth it. I'm not so sure.....

This is because your scars need full field resurfacing... do sciton trl at 500 micron for your first treatment. YOU WILL HAVE DOWNTIME and be much more red than genius. Weiner is too scared to be aggressive on patients especially out of town folks. Anyone notice the absence of before and after pics from weiner™s work?

 

his subscision is also not aggressive at all and anyone on this forum saying canulas are as effective as Taylor liberator is sleeping

Yes i havent seen any befores afters , also no patients on this forumthat had really good results , MRF really worked very goodfor me combined with subcision , but some scars simply need that ablation factor imo, which means laser or medium deep peels

I honestly thing I™ll stop here. My husband is in the military so we™re headed to Texas next so I wouldn™t even have time to do another round if I had wanted to. Ive done so many lasers over the years so I™m just kinda over it.

Thanks for sharing your journey with everyone. Although you didn't get the results you were anticipating or wanted, it helps members in that it shows that there are no guarantees with treatments.

I wish the best for you!

Sorry to hear that, wish u all the best, who knows maybe in near future there will be more effective treatment for acne scars, so far it looks like its more hit and miss, some people do get results some people dont, however its sad to see just another story ends without real results, thank u for sharing your story.

Absolutely to both. Some people responded well to the treatment I got. Some people, myself included, apparently have stubborn skin. I wouldnt say theres no improvement as there has been some. Just not for the money I paid. Lol! Just not worth it IMO.

I got Infini several times and I'm not sure I would do it again unless I become loaded with money and have a 7-10 days to spare for recovery.

When I got it done, my doctor didn't even take before and after pictures. After my first or second visit, he said my skin looked better. Do you think out of his hundreds of patients, he remembered what my skin looked like months prior before the treatment?? I call BS on this. Several dermatologists in the past did the same thing - "Oh, your face looks better."

Everything is cumulative. It's hard to tell improvement right after a treatment (unless it's really aggressive like lasers) but I think my scars are better compared to how it was many years ago. However, it did cost money and time which is incredibly valuable.

I wouldn't rule out a laser treatment or two in the future provided that you speak to a very qualified doctor about this. I think you might see more improvement from lasers give what you said about your RF results.
