Potenza RF microneedling that treats skin problems at the root

Potenza is not a laser; it delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy through fine needles (microneedles). Energy is released just at the needle tips, treating the desired depth within the skin while reducing damage to the epidermis. It can use both monopolar and bipolar modes, and the needle depth is adjusted to suit the goal.

It delivers energy selectively around the sebaceous glands, working to reduce the cycle of sebum production and recurring inflammation. If inflammation is active, the treatment sequence is adjusted according to its severity. Response varies depending on the acne condition and the individual.

Yes, it stimulates collagen regeneration in the dermis and is used to improve pores and skin texture. We recommend a course of sessions rather than a single treatment. Depending on the cause of enlarged pores, it is sometimes combined with other treatments.

Yes, by changing the tip it is also applied to depressed scars, redness, and flushing. However, Potenza alone is often not enough for deep scars, so we recommend combining it with the Scar Combination Program. Which tip and depth to use is decided after confirming your goal at consultation.

Pain is moderate, and topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to manage discomfort. The treatment takes about 30-40 minutes. How much pain you feel varies by area, settings, and individual.

Typically, redness or fine scabs may appear for about 1-3 days. Many people can wear makeup the next day. For a few days after treatment, the skin may feel red or rough.

We typically recommend about 3 sessions at 3-4 week intervals. Change often becomes clearer over about 3 sessions than after 1 session. Response in acne, pores, and scars varies by individual, so we adjust intervals and combinations as we monitor progress.

They differ in energy type and the range of concerns they address. Smoothbeam is a 1450nm diode laser that delivers heat to the sebaceous glands, focusing on recurring acne and sebum control, while Potenza uses microneedle RF to address a broad range of concerns, from acne and pores to scars and flushing, depending on the tip. When acne and scars coexist, the two are sometimes planned together, and the choice follows the consultation findings.

Depending on the goal, it is sometimes planned together with the Scar Combination Program, Smoothbeam, Juvelook, and others. Whether to have them on the same day or space them apart is decided after consultation, considering the load on your skin and your recovery. If you are already receiving other treatments, please let us know at your visit.

Caution is needed if you have an implanted electronic medical device such as a pacemaker or defibrillator, or metal or electronic implants in the treatment area. It is also not recommended if there is an infection or wound in the treatment area, or if you are pregnant. If you are prone to keloids, be sure to tell us at your visit.

Redness, roughness, or fine scabs may appear for a few days after treatment. Do not pick the scabs; support recovery with gentle cleansing and plenty of moisturizing. To protect regenerating skin, apply sunscreen of SPF30 or higher every day.

The cost depends on the type of tip used, the treatment extent, and the number of sessions, so it is confirmed after consultation.
