What is Potenza, and is it right for me?
Potenza is RF microneedling: microneedles enter the skin and release radiofrequency energy into the dermis from the needle tips. It suits enlarged pores, rough texture, acne scars, recurrent inflammatory acne and reduced elasticity. Typically 3–6 sessions four weeks apart, with gradual improvement and about 1–3 days of redness and fine crusting. From ₩150,000 (VAT excl.) at Liftique, near Sinsa Station, Seoul.
Precision energy where your skin needs it
Many skin concerns sit beneath the surface. Potenza places radiofrequency energy directly into the dermis through fine needles, encouraging collagen renewal at the depth where pores, scars and loss of firmness begin.
What makes Potenza versatile is that the tip type (for example the I tip or the one-needle tip) and the needle depth change with the purpose. Scar, pore and acne sebaceous-gland treatments are all designed into a single device, so your dermatologist can tailor one session to what your skin actually needs.
Enlarged or sagging pores
Dermal RF energy may help pores look smaller and tighter across a planned course.
Rough skin texture
For uneven, dull-looking skin, Potenza supports gradual, collagen-led refinement.
Acne scars
Tip and depth are set for scar treatment, and Potenza can form part of a combined acne scar program.
Recurrent inflammatory acne
An acne treatment mode targets the sebaceous glands behind repeated breakouts.
Reduced elasticity
Stimulating the dermis may help skin feel firmer as collagen regenerates.
Fine lines
Fine lines may look softer as skin quality gradually improves over sessions.

Diagnosis
A board-certified dermatologist reviews your skin with 2D Mark-Vu skin analysis and 3D EVE MUSE facial analysis, identifying whether pores, scars, texture or active acne should lead the plan.

Tip and depth selection
Your doctor selects the tip – such as the I tip, or the single-needle tip for up to 10 individual lesions – and sets needle depth for your purpose. Shot-based DDR, DIAMOND and SFA options are discussed when they suit your goal.

Comfortable treatment
Our pain-control system – numbing cream, fine-needle injection, nerve block and oral analgesics – is applied individually at no extra cost. Sleep sedation is available for ₩200,000 with an 8-hour fast. Treatment takes about 20–30 minutes.

Safety, risks and aftercare
Potenza is a needle-based medical treatment, so some short-term reaction is expected. Redness and fine crusting typically recover within about 1–3 days. Change builds gradually with collagen renewal, and outcomes differ between individuals – your dermatologist will set realistic expectations at consultation.
- Treatment is planned and supervised by a board-certified dermatologist.
- Tip type and needle depth are matched to your concern rather than one standard setting.
- Share your medical history, medications and any recent procedures so suitability can be assessed.
- Soothing care is included after each session; ask your doctor about skincare and sun protection during recovery.
- If you notice anything unexpected after flying home, message us on WhatsApp for photo follow-up with your doctor.
Potenza FAQs
How does Potenza RF microneedling work?
Microneedles are inserted into the skin and radiofrequency energy is delivered directly into the dermis from the needle tips. This supports collagen regeneration, so improvement builds gradually.
Which concerns can Potenza treat?
Potenza can improve enlarged or sagging pores, rough texture, acne scars, elasticity and fine lines. In acne treatment mode it can also target the sebaceous glands in recurrent inflammatory acne.
What is the difference between the Potenza options?
Your dermatologist chooses the tip type, such as the I tip or a single-needle tip for up to 10 lesions, and the needle depth for your goal. Shot-based DDR, DIAMOND and SFA options are also available and are explained at consultation.
How long is the downtime? Can I fly home or go sightseeing the next day?
Redness and fine crusting recover within about 1–3 days. Many patients plan treatment early in their stay so the skin has time to settle before photos or events.
Does Potenza hurt? Is sedation available?
Our pain-control system includes numbing cream, fine-needle injection, nerve block and oral analgesics, applied individually at no extra cost. Sleep sedation is available for ₩200,000 and requires an 8-hour fast.
How many sessions do I need?
Potenza is typically planned as 3–6 sessions at 4-week intervals. The exact number depends on your concern and is confirmed by your dermatologist.
