How does it work?

The infini microneedle will pierce through the surface of the skin and release RF energy below the skin surface.

The needle can also be adjusted to reach different depths of the skin, thereby treating acne scars which may be at different depth. It is also able to treat acne scars which are both superficial and deep .
