What is "Potenza"?

POTENZA is a beauty treatment device that can treat a wide range of skin problems, including acne, acne scars, pores, melasma, redness, and sagging skin.
 Treatments can be broadly divided into two types: ``Microneedle RF'' and ``Diamond Tip.''

 Microneedle RF is a treatment method that irradiates RF (radio frequency) energy from the tip of a microneedle (extremely thin needle).Effective for acne, acne scars, pores, melasma, and redness.
 In microneedling treatment, a needle makes many dot-shaped holes in the skin and stimulates fibroblasts, which activates the ``wound healing ability'' that repairs damaged tissue and promotes the growth of collagen and elastin.A typical treatment is Dermapen.
 With Potenza, radio frequency (RF) is further irradiated from the tip of the needle, so even higher therapeutic effects can be expected.Depending on the depth of the needle and the strength of the heat applied, it can treat various skin problems such as acne scars, pores, redness, and melasma, which was previously difficult to treat.
 Furthermore, in some procedures, it is also possible to introduce various drugs through the holes drilled.This is called drug delivery, and with POTENZA's unique pumping tip, the delivery efficiency is much higher than with previous treatment methods.By injecting the drug firmly into the dermis, you can achieve its full effect.

 On the other hand, the diamond tip is a treatment method that irradiates RF (radio frequency) energy without needle insertion, and is mainly used to treat sagging skin.When it comes to device treatment for sagging skin, HIFU is well-known, but the POTENZA Diamond Chip can be expected to be effective for sagging skin in shallow layers that cannot be improved with HIFU, such as the sagging skin on the sides of the mouth.Another advantage is that there is almost no pain or downtime as no needles are used.

Potenza is a highly effective treatment even after just one treatment.

It is effective in improving skin irregularities such as acne and acne scar craters, as well as enlarged pores.It is also effective for skin firmness and sagging, making it a suitable treatment for rejuvenating the entire skin.

With a wide variety of needle and irradiation settings, you can receive detailed treatment tailored to your concerns!

By combining four types of chips with irradiation settings tailored to your concerns, you can solve most skin concerns with one device.Each tip has a different needle density and length, allowing you to select the intensity, depth, and range of irradiation energy.
We solve a wide range of problems, including melasma and recurrent acne that cannot be treated with conventional treatments.

"Features of Potenza"

  • Point

    Corresponds to various skin problems

    POTENZA's greatest appeal is that it can treat a wide range of problems that conventional treatments have limited treatment for, including acne scars, melasma, redness, pores, fine wrinkles, and shallow skin sagging.
    There are so many concerns that it may be difficult to imagine, but during your consultation, your doctor will suggest a treatment that suits your concerns.

  • Point

    Unique drug delivery system

    Potenza has various tips (disposable needles) depending on the purpose.Among them, the ``pumping tip'' equipped with a drug delivery function that delivers drugs directly to the holes drilled in the skin has a much higher drug introduction efficiency, allowing the necessary ingredients to firmly penetrate into the skin (dermal layer).

  • Point

    less pain

    Thanks to advances in technology, the pain has been reduced to half that of the company's conventional needle RF.Especially when it comes to treating melasma and sagging skin, it is so painless that it can be treated without anesthesia.

  • Point

    less downtime

    The bleeding is stopped by RF irradiated from the tip of the microneedle, so it is characterized by less redness.Make-up can be applied the next day, allowing for shorter downtime.


Potenza is the most advanced treatment for acne!

Potenza has a triple effect of ``wound healing process using needle puncture,'' ``tightening and tissue regeneration using monopolar RF irradiation,'' and ``drug delivery system,'' which is effective against acne scars and pores.


Drug delivery system



◆Crater/Pore/Beautiful skin treatment CP-25 (Crater/Pore)

The CP-25 pumping tip uses a unique drug delivery system that uses air force to evenly inject the drug as soon as the needle is removed.
This system has made it possible to deliver many beauty agents to the dermis layer more efficiently than water light injections or Dermapen.
Furthermore, since the needles provide strong stimulation and RF energy is irradiated, you can expect the redness improvement effect described below.

Drugs that can be combined with Potenza

McCoom

POTENZA is an introductory drug that can be said to be synonymous with POTENZA, and it improves acne scars and pores.A PLLA formulation developed exclusively for Potenza that stimulates the production of dermal collagen when injected subcutaneously.It breaks down into water and carbon dioxide in the body over a period of several months to about two years, and is a safe ingredient that does not cause allergic reactions.

Growth factor

Contains growth factors and cytokines that enhance skin repair and regeneration, increasing firmness and luster, and alleviating inflammation of damaged skin, improving fine lines and redness caused by inflammation.
Cytokines, which are biological signals that direct the rebirth of the skin, compensate for the functions lost with age while bringing out the skin's natural vitality and bringing new radiance.

Botox

Regular Botox is used to improve facial expression wrinkles by suppressing muscle movement.By adjusting this concentration and injection layer, it suppresses sebum secretion and sweating while preserving muscle movement, and has the effect of improving pore enlargement, fine wrinkles, and sagging.

juve look

Juvelook is a skin booster formulation that combines the ingredients of ``Poly-DL-lactic acid (PDLLA)'' and ``non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid,'' which are attracting attention in Korea.By producing collagen and elastin, it has the effect of improving enlarged pores, acne scars, fine wrinkles, etc.

◆ Melasma treatment《S-16/25 Melasma, redness, pores》 ~ Radical treatment for melasma that overcomes the drawbacks of conventional treatments ~

What is melasma?
Brown tones such as age spots, freckles, dull skin, and melasma are all caused by melanin pigments, but their causes are different.
The exact cause of melasma is unknown, but it is thought to be strongly influenced by ultraviolet rays, friction, and female hormones.Furthermore, it has recently been thought that abnormal melanin production occurs due to damage to the basement membrane between the epidermis and dermis of the skin, as well as cytokines from the damaged dermis.

Conventional melasma treatment using machines was a reactive treatment in which melanin could be temporarily excreted through toning, but the melanin tended to return to its original state once the treatment was stopped.In some cases, there is a risk that melasma may worsen or vitiligo, which looks like white spots, may form.

At Potenza, we use a completely new approach that directly supplies energy to the melanocytes that produce melanin, suppressing melanin production, and aiming for skin that does not produce melasma.This method is used to treat patients for whom conventional treatments have not been effective. It also opens up the possibility of improving melasma.
In addition, there is no need to worry about the risks of pigmentation, recurrence, white spots, etc. that can occur with conventional melasma treatments, and the treatment is expected to be highly effective.

Furthermore, using the same mechanism, it can be expected to improve not only melasma but also dullness and pigmentation on the entire face.


◆Red face (rosacea)《S-25》

Facial redness can be caused by inflammation such as rosacea, telangiectasia, or acne.
Redness is caused by the color of blood vessels showing through, but it is caused by the creation of new blood vessels that are unnecessary.With Potenza, high-frequency RF energy suppresses signals (cytokines) that form new blood vessels, which not only eliminates the existing redness, but also has a therapeutic effect that makes recurrence difficult.


◆Tightening sagging 《Diamond Tip》 ~ This is for Ponyo on the side of the mouth! ~

Wrinkles and shallow sagging are caused by a decrease in collagen and elastin in the dermal layer.Collagen and elastin refer to the springs in bed, and play an important role in maintaining skin elasticity.
As collagen decreases due to aging and UV rays, the skin loses its elasticity and firmness, resulting in wrinkles and sagging.The diamond tip is a non-needle type that does not use a needle, unlike previous tips that use needles. By irradiating two types of high frequency waves in one shot, it is possible to tighten the skin from the shallow to the deep layers.
In particular, it can be expected to improve shallow sagging that could not be improved with HIFU or thread lift.
Because it does not use needles, it is easy to undergo with almost no pain or downtime.
We also recommend that you tighten the dermal layer with a diamond tip and then undergo HIFU or thread lift on the same day.


◆Acne treatment《A1-15 (up to 20 inflammatory acne)》

Acne is a condition in which the exit of pores is clogged due to excessive secretion of sebum, causing infection and inflammation within the pores by acne bacteria.
Potenza uses a single needle specialized for acne treatment to directly irradiate high-frequency RF onto acne and burn the sebaceous glands.
Once sebaceous glands are destroyed, they are difficult to regenerate, making it possible to treat acne fundamentally.
Since the A1 chip concentrates energy in one needle, it is expected to improve acne that cannot be treated with other chips.Acne may worsen temporarily after the treatment, but if you want to see results in a short period of time, Potenza is recommended!
Potenza is a revolutionary machine in the beauty medical industry, as it is highly effective for treating a wide range of skin concerns, with minimal pain and downtime.
If you are not satisfied with the effects of conventional treatments, or if you are suffering from melasma for which there were no treatment options, we will recommend a treatment that is suitable for your skin condition through a thorough examination by a doctor.
Please contact us for a free consultation first.
Let's work together to improve your skin problems and get smooth skin.


  

◆Fine wrinkles on the skin surface, enlarged pores (SFA)

SFA irradiates high frequency waves to the shallowest epidermis of the skin.The epidermis is cauterized and a very small scab forms over the next day.The crusted area may have a rough texture, but this is temporary.As the scabs fall off, fine lines, skin tone, and pores improve.The treatment is reminiscent of ironing as a finishing touch to skin treatment.
