This is a procedure note for Acne Treatment Dermatology Clinic: 3 Things to Consider to Reduce Recurrence at Gyeonggi Anyang Beomgye KKEUT Korean Clinic.
People who visit dermatologists for acne often worry about recurrence.
Simply calming down only the currently appearing inflammatory troubles makes overall management of acne difficult.
It is necessary to comprehensively evaluate the skin environment where inflammation repeatedly occurs, along with remaining marks, to establish an appropriate management direction.
To reduce the burden of acne recurrence, we will explain three elements to consider during consultation, step by step.

First, we assess the current inflammatory activity
Acne accompanied by red inflammation and marks remaining after inflammation has subsided each require a different approach.
If strong stimulation is applied during a period of severe inflammation, redness may persist longer than expected.
During the initial consultation, the skin condition is diagnosed by distinguishing whether it is in an inflammatory stage, primarily needs calming, or requires improvement of acne scars.
Areas where acne has been self-extracted or picked can lead to deeper inflammation and leave marks, so we also check your usual skincare habits.

Exosomes are skin boosters that utilize intercellular signaling substances derived from stem cells. They can be applied to skin concerns related to inflammatory responses, such as acne, acne scars, and redness.
Acne can be viewed as a symptom, and exosome treatment is one of the procedures that can help calm the inflammatory environment of the skin.
Even when redness persists long after an inflammatory reaction, skin calming is managed as the primary goal.

Second, considering the sebum secretion environment is also important
If only inflammation is calmed and the environment of excessive sebum secretion is not improved, acne is likely to recur in the same area.
Potenza directly delivers high-frequency energy to the dermal layer through fine needles. This can help reduce acne occurrence and manage troubles by regulating the activity of overly active sebaceous glands.
The needle depth can be adjusted from 0.5mm to 3.5mm, allowing the procedure to be performed according to the skin thickness of each facial area.

Generally, considering the skin regeneration cycle, treatments are recommended at 4-6 week intervals, and 3-5 cumulative sessions can be considered.
Since sebum secretion control and scar improvement have different treatment objectives, it is better to approach them by distinguishing stages according to the skin condition rather than performing them simultaneously with the same intensity.
Immediately after the procedure, redness or pinpoint bleeding may appear, but most tend to subside within 1-2 days. This may vary depending on the treatment intensity and individual skin characteristics.
It is advisable to refrain from saunas, strenuous exercise, and alcohol for about 1-2 days after the procedure. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to moisturizing and sun protection.

Third, ensure the method effectively delivers active ingredients to the dermal layer
Even with the same exosome treatment, the results can vary depending on how effectively the active ingredients are delivered to the dermal layer.
Simply applying to the skin surface may have limitations in active ingredient penetration, so it is necessary to examine the delivery method.
The Potenza pumping tip utilizes the positive pressure generated when micro-needles exit the skin to deeply deliver active drugs into the dermal layer. This can increase the absorption rate.
Currently, direct injection of exosomes via syringe is illegal under Korean medical law. Therefore, it is important to confirm whether the procedure is performed legally through topical application.

Furthermore, it is advisable to also confirm before the procedure whether the exact amount of exosomes is extracted in front of you and whether undiluted original solution is used.
If acne scars are present, Potenza can also be used to improve indented scars or enlarged pores. For deep scars, regenerative effects can be expected as the number of treatment sessions accumulates.
Kkeut Clinic's Acne Treatment Standards
We extract the exact amount of exosomes in front of the patient and show it to them directly for verification.
We use undiluted exosome original solution.
The procedure is performed not by injection, but by a legal topical application method compliant with Korean medical law.
We strive to increase the absorption rate of active ingredients by utilizing the Potenza pumping tip layering technique.

Layering is a technique that increases treatment density by adjusting needle depth considering the characteristics of the concerned area and overlapping treatment areas.
For hygiene and safety, we strictly adhere to the principle of using one tip per person and immediately discarding it after use.

To reduce the burden of acne recurrence, it is important to manage three factors – inflammation calming, sebum environment management, and active ingredient delivery method – step by step and in a balanced way, rather than relying on a single powerful treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. If I receive exosome treatment at an acne treatment clinic, will acne recurrence completely disappear?
A. Acne treatment procedures do not guarantee the complete absence of recurrence. At our clinic, we comprehensively consider inflammation stage verification, sebum environment management, and active ingredient delivery method to strive to reduce the possibility of recurrence.
Q. How much pain is involved in acne treatment procedures?
A. For procedures using Potenza, a numbing cream is generally applied before treatment, so you can receive the procedure with minimal discomfort. Any redness appearing immediately after the procedure usually subsides naturally within 1-2 days.
Q. When choosing a medical institution for acne management, what aspects should be prioritized?
A. When choosing a medical institution for acne improvement, it is advisable to carefully check whether the substances used in the procedure are extracted in precise quantities, whether undiluted solutions are used, and the methods of application and dermal delivery.
