What is Potenza?

• Potenza uses ultra-fine microneedles plus radiofrequency (RF) energy to create micro-injuries in the dermis and stimulate collagen/elastin production.
• The dual action (mechanical + thermal) helps tighten skin, improve texture, reduce pores & acne scars, lift mild laxity.
• It’s considered safer for varied skin tones compared with some aggressive ablative lasers.

What to Expect — Step by Step

Pre-treatment:

• Consultation + skin assessment
• Topical numbing cream applied (~30 minutes)
  During treatment:
• Potenza device applied across the target area: microneedles penetrate skin while delivering RF energy
• Depth & RF energy adjusted to skin condition (scars vs laxity vs pores)
  Post-treatment and recovery:
• Immediately: skin may feel warm, slightly “sun-burnt”
• Days 1-2: redness, mild swelling possible
• Days 3-5: peeling or slight flaking may occur (varies)
• Visible improvement: within 2-4 weeks
• Collagen remodelling continues: up to ~3-6 months for full effect.

Cost & Value (Seoul Context)

• Pricing in Seoul: Starting from ~ ₩320,000 (~US $230 depending on rate) at some clinics.
• “Full face” sessions at premium clinics may range higher (₩800,000-₩1,500,000) depending on device tip, clinic brand, and region.
• Considering Seoul’s advanced aesthetic market and expertise, many patients view it as good value.

Why Choose Seoul for Potenza?

• Korea (especially Seoul) is a global leader in medical-aesthetic treatments and has wide expertise with devices and protocols.
• Many clinics cater to international patients: English-speaking staff, transparent pricing, foreigner-friendly booking.
• Combination treatment culture: Many clinics pair Potenza with boosters (exosomes, skin boosters), lasers or injectables for enhanced results.

Good Candidates / Who Should Consider It

✔ Individuals with mild skin laxity who prefer non-surgical lifting
✔ Those with acne scars, enlarged pores, rough texture
✔ People looking for skin rejuvenation (tone, elasticity) rather than major structural surgery
✔ Clients comfortable with 1-3 days of mild downtime and multiple sessions for optimal results
