If you're looking for an acne treatment, managing only the surface has its limitations.

Acne is a process where sebaceous glands become overactive, pores get blocked, and inflammation recurs. While caring for only the skin's surface might seem to calm it temporarily, recurrence is inevitable if the activity of the sebaceous glands, located deep within the dermis, is not suppressed.

Potenza works by having micro-needles create channels in the dermis, after which RF (radiofrequency) energy is directly emitted from the needle tips. This mechanism approaches acne through two pathways.

The first is sebaceous gland destruction. RF energy is directly applied to overactive sebaceous glands to reduce sebum secretion itself. This pathway blocks the root cause of recurring acne.

The second is collagen and elastin regeneration. When the needles create micro-channels in the dermis, the skin triggers an 'over-healing' response, generating new collagen. In this process, acne scars and pitted pores are simultaneously improved.

Potenza shares the basic principle of delivering radiofrequency with micro-needles, similar to Secret RF, Sylfirm, Virtue, Elysion, and others. However, there is a crucial difference in the drug delivery method when used in conjunction with skin boosters.

Potenza's dedicated pumping tip (CP-25) utilizes the positive pressure generated when the needles retract to push drugs into the dermis. This is a core Potenza technology that maximizes absorption by more than double compared to conventional injection methods. The difference is clearly apparent when used with acne regenerative medications or skin boosters.

The recommended treatment cycle is typically every 4-6 weeks, aligned with the skin regeneration cycle. For significant scar improvement and sebaceous gland suppression effects, 3-5 cumulative treatments are recommended.

Immediately after the procedure, redness and tiny pinpoint bleeding spots may appear. These usually subside within 1-2 days, but can last up to a week depending on the treatment intensity and skin type. Makeup is possible from the next day, but avoiding it for about 3 days is beneficial for skin recovery.

For aftercare, you should refrain from heat-inducing activities like saunas, strenuous exercise, and alcohol consumption for 1-2 days after the procedure. Regularly applying moisturizer to aid skin barrier recovery and diligently using sunscreen are fundamental.

When choosing Potenza for acne treatment, the most important factor is 'how it is operated.' Even with the same device, results vary depending on the needle depth, number of shots, tip selection, and combination of accompanying medications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Is Potenza truly effective as an acne treatment?

A. As an acne treatment, Potenza simultaneously addresses two pathways: sebaceous gland destruction and collagen regeneration. While a single treatment can refine skin texture, the cumulative effects of sebaceous gland suppression and scar improvement become more pronounced with 3-5 treatments.

Q. Can Potenza help with acne scars?

A. Yes. Potenza's RF energy induces collagen regeneration in the dermis, making it effective for improving pitted scars and enlarged pores. However, the number of sessions required varies depending on the depth of the scars.

Q. What is the difference between Potenza and other Needle RF treatments like Secret or Sylfirm?

A. The basic principle is the same. The crucial difference lies when using skin boosters together. Potenza's dedicated pumping tip has a structure that pushes drugs deep into the dermis, leading to an overwhelming difference in drug absorption efficiency. Other Needle RF devices do not have this tip.

Q. How is anesthesia administered?

A. Potenza is performed after anesthesia. The pain is not severe compared to other lifting or needle procedures and is generally tolerable.

The Sincerity of Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic

Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic maximizes the effectiveness of acne treatment by strictly using Potenza's dedicated pumping tip when combining with skin boosters, ensuring that the medication is fully delivered into the dermis. This is because meaningful changes occur only when the medication is delivered to the precise depth, rather than remaining on the skin's surface.

Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic strictly adheres to the principle of using one treatment tip per person and immediately discarding it thereafter. Hygiene is an uncompromising area. The practice of reusing tips to cut costs does not exist at Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic.

Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic applies a layering technique, adjusting needle depth and overlapping areas as needed, and guarantees the promised sufficient number of shots without compromising on effectiveness. Rather than a uniform treatment, we meticulously proceed by increasing the density in areas of concern, ensuring that energy is evenly delivered throughout the skin.
