Men often visit dermatology clinics for reasons that differ from women.

Various issues can appear in combination, such as enlarged pores, excessive sebum, acne scars, rough skin texture due to shaving irritation, and reduced elasticity from aging.

In this article, we will examine common male skin concerns by type and explain how our clinic utilizes Potenza.

Generally, male skin is characterized by higher sebum secretion and a relatively thicker texture.

Daily shaving also continuously irritates the skin surface, which can be a contributing factor to skin problems.

Multiple concerns such as pores, scars, skin texture in the beard area, and reduced elasticity often appear simultaneously, making it crucial to create an individualized treatment plan tailored to each issue.

First, let's look at issues with pores and excessive sebum secretion.

Excessive sebum secretion can make pores appear enlarged and easily lead to oily skin or breakouts.

Unlike simply managing the skin surface, it is necessary to approach by regulating the sebaceous glands themselves.

Potenza delivers radiofrequency energy to the dermal layer of the skin through microneedles, which can help regulate overactive sebaceous glands. This can contribute to reducing sebum secretion and suppressing acne.

Improving sagging pores is also within the scope of Potenza's applications.

Next are concerns about depressed scars left on the skin by acne.

Acne scars vary in depth and extent from person to person, so it is crucial to thoroughly assess the condition of the scars in each area before treatment.

Depressed scars are difficult to improve with only surface skin management. Therefore, direct stimulation to the dermal layer is necessary to induce regeneration.

Potenza uses microneedles to create tiny channels in the dermal layer and delivers radiofrequency energy through these channels to induce the production of collagen and elastin.

While you may experience skin texture improvement after just one treatment, for deeper scars, consistent treatments can lead to gradual regenerative effects.

When utilizing skin boosters together, Potenza's pumping tip (CP-25) can be used.

This pumping tip utilizes the positive pressure generated when the needles exit the skin to effectively deliver medication deep into the dermal layer. This is Potenza's unique technology that enhances drug absorption compared to conventional injection methods.

Other microneedle radiofrequency devices, such as Secret or Sylfirm, use similar principles, but they show differences in terms of drug absorption efficiency when combined with skin boosters.

The depth of Potenza needles can be precisely adjusted from 0.5mm to 3.5mm. Therefore, the treatment is performed by setting the appropriate depth according to the treatment area and the specific skin concern.

The third male skin concern is the beard area.

Rough skin texture in the beard area can be improved with Potenza, while the hair itself is generally managed through laser hair removal.

For male beard hair removal, consistent treatments for 20 sessions or more, over a period of at least one year, may be necessary for satisfactory results, so a long-term plan is recommended.

Hair removal treatment cycles require a minimum interval of 3 weeks, and an interval of 4 weeks is generally recommended.

Finally, let's look at issues of reduced skin elasticity. Potenza can be considered for fine wrinkles or mild elasticity improvement, and for prominent skin sagging, it is advisable to combine it with lifting device treatments after consulting with a specialist.

Potenza treatments are generally recommended to be repeated 3 to 5 times at intervals of 4 to 6 weeks.

Immediately after the treatment, temporary redness or tiny bleeding spots may appear, but most resolve within 1-2 days. However, these reactions can last up to a week depending on the treatment intensity or individual skin characteristics, so individual differences should be taken into account.

Since an anesthetic cream is applied before the procedure, discomfort from pain can be reduced.

Makeup is possible starting the day after the procedure, but it may be beneficial for skin recovery to avoid it for about 3 days if possible.

For 1-2 days after the treatment, it is advisable to avoid saunas, strenuous exercise, and alcohol, and to pay close attention to adequate moisturizing and thorough sun protection.

Features of Potenza Treatment at Our Clinic

At our clinic, when performing skin booster treatments, we utilize Potenza's dedicated pumping tip to ensure active ingredients are delivered deep into the dermal layer.

For safety and hygiene, we adhere to the principle of using one tip per person for all treatments; used tips are immediately discarded, and reuse is strictly prohibited.

We meticulously adjust the needle depth according to each patient's specific skin concerns and characteristics, and apply layering techniques to enhance the density and efficacy of the treatment.

During the treatment, we carefully ensure that the radiofrequency energy is evenly delivered across the entire skin by using the predetermined number of shots without omission.
