Thinking about Potenza in Gangnam, Seoul? Here’s what to know before you book. 🩵
Potenza combines fine microneedles with radiofrequency (RF) energy. It’s often discussed for enlarged pores, uneven texture, firmness, and acne scars. Results depend on your concern, skin type, and treatment area.
Does it hurt?
Most people feel prickling or warmth, and some areas feel more pressure. Pain varies from person to person and can depend on the tip and energy settings. If you’re sensitive to pain, tell your provider before you start.
How do you choose a tip?
Start with your concern, not the tip:
- Enlarged pores
- Texture or acne scars
- Firmness
- Redness or sensitivity
Your provider can tailor the approach, or suggest waiting if your skin is inflamed.

Before your consultation, mention:
- Skin conditions like eczema or active acne
