[Cause of Acne, Sebaceous Gland Destruction] Secret RF Agnes

Agnes at Kkeuthan Clinic

At Kkeuthan Clinic, we go beyond simply applying a single shot to one problematic area during Agnes treatment.

1. 'Scatter Pattern' Design Considering Sebaceous Gland Distribution

Sebaceous glands are often widely dispersed within the skin. Therefore, the treatment approaches improvement of the entire sebaceous gland cluster, meticulously treating from the center of each lesion outwards, by adjusting the appropriate output and depth per lesion.

2. Three-dimensional treatment by adjusting needle length and radiofrequency output.

Needle length is determined considering the anatomical depth of each area. By adjusting the radiofrequency output value according to the lesion's condition, we help you achieve the desired effects.

Energy intensity and delivery time are finely adjusted according to the size and depth of the lesion. Even when repeat treatments are necessary, the position is subtly adjusted to avoid over-stimulating the same area, thereby reducing skin irritation.

3. Real-time verification of the lesion's 'temperature response' and direct explanation to the patient.

Radiofrequency treatment aims for localized thermal coagulation between 60-70 degrees Celsius. During appropriate heat delivery, the lesion may slightly swell or show subtle color changes. At Kkeuthan Clinic, we monitor these reactions in real-time during the procedure, taking care to reduce the risk of side effects from excessive coagulation. At the end of the treatment, we review the treated area with the patient and, if deemed necessary, perform additional treatments to enhance satisfaction.

4. Soothing Care at Kkeuthan Clinic

Immediately after the procedure, a Jaungo modeling pack is applied to soothe the skin and rapidly reduce heat. This aims to aid the recovery process and enhance post-treatment comfort. Kkeuthan Clinic strives to improve the quality of acne and sebum-related disease management through this process.

For yellow bumps on the lips, such as Fordyce spots, Agnes treatment may be considered.

Fordyce spots refer to small, white or yellowish bumps that appear on the inside of the lips or oral mucosa.

While these may simply be exposed sebaceous glands, some individuals find them cosmetically bothersome and experience discomfort.

Agnes's insulated radiofrequency needles are used to selectively coagulate only the sebaceous glands while minimizing damage to the outer skin.

Improvements in Fordyce spots can be expected with this method.

Management through procedural methods, without drug treatment, can be considered.

For goosebump-like sebaceous gland hyperplasia under the eyes, Agnes treatment may be helpful.

Rough, bumpy skin under the eyes is often observed.

This phenomenon may not simply be a pore issue but rather sebaceous gland hyperplasia.

Agnes treatment can be applied to thin and sensitive areas, such as under the eyes.

By selectively targeting sebaceous glands, improvements can be expected while reducing the burden on the treated area.

Under-eye skin improvement can be considered while reducing the likelihood of scarring or hyperpigmentation.
