This is Gyeonggi Anyang Beomgye KKEUT Korean Clinic's procedure note on 3 Things to Know Before Choosing an Acne Scar Treatment Clinic.
When choosing an acne scar treatment center, there are things to consider before specific equipment or the number of reviews.
Even acne scars that appear similar on the surface can vary in actual depth and shape. Therefore, the approach taken during the initial consultation can determine the direction of the entire process.
Here, we will discuss in detail what to check at each stage, from consultation to the actual procedure, and post-procedure care.

Standard 1. Considerations during diagnosis and consultation
First, check if they explain the types of scars in detail.
Indented scars and red hyperpigmentation marks require different approaches.
If they propose a single procedure regardless of the scar type, it is wise to inquire about the basis of that treatment plan.

Next, it's advisable to see if they present a comprehensive treatment plan, not just a single procedure.
The number or frequency of procedures can vary depending on an individual's scar condition. It is advisable to receive a full explanation during the consultation about the criteria used to establish the treatment plan.
It's also important to confirm what the procedure cost includes. The detailed cost breakdown is separately explained in the acne scar laser price article.

Standard 2. What to check during the treatment design phase
It's a good idea to check if all areas are treated at the same depth, or if the needle depth is finely adjusted for each problematic area.
Layering techniques, which involve overlapping treatments at various depths, can help enhance the procedure's effectiveness. Inquiring whether explanations about such methods are available is one approach.

Information about the number of shots provided also serves as an important criterion.
Carefully check whether the number of shots you were informed of during the consultation is applied uniformly to your skin, and if the actual procedure aligns with the consultation details.

If skin booster treatments are also performed, it is advisable to inquire about the drug injection method.
Traditional injection methods have limitations regarding the possibility of nodule formation and the accuracy of dermal layer absorption. Therefore, it is appropriate to look for places that apply the medication directly to the skin.
By using Potenza-specific pumping tips or needle RF to create micro-channels in the skin and then applying the medication, uniform absorption into the dermal layer can be induced. The specific role of skin booster medications is explained in more detail in the acne scar cream article.

Standard 3. What to check during the post-procedure care phase
The most fundamental aspect of post-procedure care is hygiene. Please carefully examine everything visible to the naked eye.
You can directly check or inquire whether they use only one tip per person for the procedure and dispose of it immediately, and if they open a new tip in front of the patient.
Appropriate post-care guidance according to the procedure method is also important. If the procedure does not leave visible wounds on the skin's surface, it is generally followed by an explanation that no special aftercare is needed.
