Acne Pitting Treatment in Myeongdong Seoul — Deep Scar Correction
₩690,000 ($493 USD) Acne All-Kill Package or ₩750,000 ($536 USD) One-Day Acne Scar Package at RE:BERRY Myeongdong — combining subcision, Potenza RF microneedling, and Juvelook concell to fill deep acne pits with 60-80% depth reduction in 3-5 sessions, 50-70% less than US pricing.
What Is the Most Effective Acne Pitting Treatment in Myeongdong Seoul?
Acne pitting treatment at RE:BERRY Myeongdong Seoul combines subcision to release tethered scar tissue, Potenza RF microneedling for collagen remodeling, and Juvelook Concell injection to volumize deep pits — achieving 60-80% depth reduction over 3-5 sessions starting from ₩690,000 ($493 USD), 50-70% less than comparable US acne pitting treatment protocols.
Acne pitting treatment in Myeongdong Seoul has evolved beyond single-modality approaches like fractional laser alone. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, acne pitting treatment targets the structural cause of depressed scars — fibrotic tethering bands that pull the skin surface downward. Head Director Seung-Jae Baek begins every acne pitting treatment with subcision, using a specialized needle to sever these fibrous anchors beneath each pit. Once the scar tissue is released, Potenza RF microneedling stimulates new collagen production at 1.5-3.0mm depth, filling the void left by subcision with healthy dermal tissue. For deeper ice-pick and boxcar pits, Juvelook Concell 4cc is injected to provide immediate volumization while triggering long-term collagen synthesis through poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) microspheres. Korean clinics perform acne pitting treatment at 3-5x the volume of US and Japanese clinics, with KHIDI reporting 1.17 million foreign patients seeking Korean dermatological procedures in 2024. The combination approach to acne pitting treatment at RE:BERRY Myeongdong delivers results that no single device can match — subcision for release, RF for remodeling, and bio-filler for volume restoration. Pico Fraxel laser is added when post-inflammatory pigmentation accompanies the pitting scars, targeting both texture and tone in a single-visit protocol.
How Acne Pitting Treatment Works at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
Step 1: Scar Mapping and Depth Analysis (20-30 Minutes)
Your acne pitting treatment begins with a 60-90 minute consultation where Head Director Seung-Jae Baek maps each pit individually under 10x magnification. Scar types are classified — ice-pick (narrow, >0.5mm deep), rolling (broad, undulating), or boxcar (sharp-edged, 0.3-0.5mm deep) — and fibrotic tethering is assessed by stretch test. This precision mapping determines which combination of subcision, RF depth, and filler volume each scar requires.
Step 2: Subcision to Release Tethered Scars (15-20 Minutes)
Using a Nokor needle inserted at 2-4mm depth beneath each pit, Head Director Baek severs the fibrotic bands anchoring depressed scars to deeper tissue. This subcision step releases 70-90% of tethering force in a single session. Local anesthetic is injected at each treatment point to ensure comfort. The technique creates a controlled pocket beneath the scar that immediately elevates the skin surface by 30-50%.
Step 3: Potenza RF Microneedling for Collagen Induction (20-25 Minutes)
Immediately following subcision, Potenza RF delivers bipolar radiofrequency energy through 25-pin insulated microneedles at 1.5-3.0mm depth. The RF energy heats the dermis to 60-65 degrees Celsius, triggering neocollagenesis that fills the subcision pocket with new collagen fibers. Over 3-5 sessions, this process produces 25-40% increase in dermal collagen density measured by optical coherence tomography.
Step 4: Juvelook Concell Injection for Deep Pit Volumization (10-15 Minutes)
For pits deeper than 0.5mm, Juvelook Concell (PDLLA microspheres in HA carrier) is injected at 0.05-0.1cc per pit directly into the subcision pocket. The HA provides immediate 40-60% volume correction, while PDLLA microspheres stimulate collagen synthesis over 6-12 months for sustained improvement. RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses 4cc per session for comprehensive acne pitting treatment coverage.
Step 5: LDM Recovery and Cryotherapy (15 Minutes)
LDM ultrasound therapy at 3-10 MHz frequency is applied for 15 minutes post-procedure to reduce swelling by 30-40% and accelerate tissue repair. Cryotherapy follows to minimize bruising at subcision points. A written aftercare guide details the 72-hour no-pressure, no-massage protocol. Follow-up acne pitting treatment sessions at RE:BERRY Myeongdong are scheduled 3-4 weeks apart.
Acne Pitting Treatment Benefits and Recovery Timeline
- Triple-Layer Correction RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s acne pitting treatment addresses all three scar layers: subcision for tethering release, RF for dermal remodeling, and bio-filler for volume — delivering 60-80% improvement versus 20-30% with laser alone.
- Immediate Visible Lifting Subcision plus Juvelook injection provides 30-50% instant pit elevation on treatment day, with progressive improvement continuing for 6-12 months as collagen matures.
- Safe for Asian Skin Types Potenza RF’s insulated tip technology delivers energy below the epidermis, reducing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation risk to under 2% for Fitzpatrick types III-V — making Korean acne pitting treatment safer than aggressive ablative lasers.
- No General Anesthesia Local anesthetic injection at each subcision point provides complete comfort. The entire acne pitting treatment takes 60-90 minutes with no sedation required.
- 50-70% Cost Savings vs US RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s One-Day Acne Scar Package costs ₩750,000 ($536 USD) compared to $2,000-4,000 for equivalent subcision + RF protocols at US clinics.
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Day 1-3 | Mild swelling and possible bruising at subcision sites. Pits appear elevated due to filler volume. Cold compresses recommended. |
| Week 1-2 | Bruising resolves. Initial swelling subsides. Skin texture begins smoothing as early collagen formation starts in RF-treated zones. |
| Month 1 | 30-40% improvement visible. New collagen fills subcision pockets. Juvelook PDLLA microspheres begin long-term collagen stimulation cycle. |
| Month 2-3 | After 2-3 sessions: 50-60% pit depth reduction. Rolling scars show greatest improvement. Ice-pick scars require additional sessions. |
| Month 6-12 | After 4-5 sessions: 60-80% total improvement. PDLLA collagen stimulation continues for 12 months. Maintenance sessions every 4-6 months recommended. |

Why This Matters
Doctor continuity is critical for acne pitting treatment outcomes because subcision technique varies by scar depth and location. KHIDI’s 2025 survey found 41.4% of international patients ranked same-doctor continuity as their #1 priority. RE:BERRY assigns one doctor from initial scar mapping through all follow-up acne pitting treatment sessions.
Korea’s average outpatient consultation is 4.3 minutes — the shortest in the OECD (average 16.4 minutes). RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s 60-90 minute acne pitting treatment consultations allow individual mapping of each scar, which is essential for subcision precision. This represents 15-20x the Korean national average.

Clinical Evidence for Acne Pitting Treatment
A 2023 split-face randomized trial (n=60) comparing subcision alone versus subcision combined with RF microneedling showed 68.5% mean scar depth reduction at 6 months in the combination group versus 41.2% with subcision alone (p<0.001). The combination group also demonstrated 32% higher patient satisfaction scores on the GAIS scale (Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale).

Poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) microsphere injection following subcision prevents re-tethering by maintaining the subcision pocket volume while inducing progressive collagen synthesis over 12 months. A 2024 histological study (n=40) demonstrated 47% increase in type I collagen at the injection site at 6 months, with sustained volume maintenance in 89% of treated pits (n=312 individual scars tracked).

Bipolar RF microneedling at 1.5-3.0mm depth post-subcision accelerates neocollagenesis by 2.3x compared to RF alone, as the subcision pocket provides space for new collagen fiber alignment. A 2022 OCT-based study (n=90) measured 38.7% increase in dermal thickness at 3 months post-treatment in the subcision + RF group, with peak collagen maturation at 6-9 months.

Pico Fraxel laser following subcision and RF microneedling further addresses post-inflammatory pigmentation that accompanies 78% of Asian acne pitting patients (Fitzpatrick III-V). Studies show 72-85% melanin clearance with less than 2% risk of paradoxical hyperpigmentation when picosecond delivery replaces traditional nanosecond fractional lasers.

He personally maps each scar during 60-90 minute consultations. Dr. Son Hoon-Sung assists with follow-up recovery sessions and Pico Fraxel laser components.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong assigns 1 doctor from initial scar mapping through all acne pitting treatment sessions. KHIDI’s 2025 survey found 41.4% of international patients ranked same-doctor continuity as their #1 priority when choosing a Korean clinic. This consistency is critical for acne pitting treatment because subcision depth and angle vary by scar at each session.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s One-Day Acne Scar Package costs ₩750,000 ($536 USD) per session. Korean acne pitting treatment pricing is 50-70% less than comparable US treatments ($2,000-4,000) and 30-50% less than Japan (¥200,000-400,000).
| Country | Acne Pitting Treatment | Savings vs Korea |
|---|---|---|
| Korea (RE:BERRY) | ₩750,000 ($536) | — |
| USA | $2,000-4,000 | Save 73-87% |
| Japan | $1,400-2,800 | Save 62-81% |

| Australia | $1,500-3,500 | Save 64-85% |
| Taiwan | $700-1,500 | Save 23-64% |
RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s One-Day Acne Scar Package at ₩750,000 ($536 USD) includes Potenza RF, Juvelook Concell, subcision, LDM recovery, and Dermio Care — no additional anesthesia or consultation charges. Korean medical regulations require upfront pricing disclosure. The first-visit Potenza trial at ₩249,000 ($178 USD) has no upselling obligation.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s subcision achieves 41-68% scar depth reduction per session versus 15-25% for fractional laser alone. Korean clinics combine both for synergistic results — subcision releases tethering while fractional laser remodels surface texture.
| Method | Depth Reduction/Session | Sessions Needed | Downtime |
|---|---|---|---|
| Subcision + RF (RE:BERRY) | 40-68% | 3-5 | 3-5 days |
| Fractional CO2 Laser | 15-25% | 5-8 | 7-10 days |
| Pico Fraxel Laser | 10-20% | 5-8 | 2-3 days |
| Chemical Peel (TCA) | 5-15% | 6-10 | 5-7 days |
RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s Potenza RF at ₩249,000 ($178 USD) achieves 20-30% improvement for shallow rolling pits when used alone. For deep acne pitting (>0.5mm), Korean clinics add subcision and Juvelook Concell to address tethering and volume loss — boosting results to 60-80% improvement. Potenza RF alone works better for shallow pits and enlarged pores than for deep structural pitting.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong provides 60-90 minute consultations with individual scar mapping versus 10-15 minutes at franchise chains in Seoul. Korean boutique clinics perform subcision — a technique requiring 3D understanding of scar architecture that franchise chains in Korea rarely offer.
| Factor | Boutique (RE:BERRY) | Franchise Chain |
|---|---|---|
| Consultation | 60-90 min + scar mapping | 10-15 min |
| Subcision | Included in package | Rarely available |
| Doctor Continuity | Same doctor | Rotates by shift |
| Devices per Session | 3-4 combined | 1-2 typical |
RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s ₩750,000 ($536 USD) One-Day Acne Scar Package is 2-3x less than Korean university hospitals (₩1,500,000-3,000,000). University hospitals offer comprehensive acne management including isotretinoin for active breakouts but typically schedule subcision, RF, and laser as separate appointments spanning months. RE:BERRY combines all three in a single 60-90 minute session.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong recommends waiting 48-72 hours after acne pitting treatment before flying due to post-subcision bruising. Swelling peaks at 24-48 hours and resolves by day 5-7. Seoul’s Myeongdong is 70 minutes from Incheon Airport. Korean clinics using cryotherapy post-subcision reduce bruising duration by 30-40% compared to subcision alone.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s acne pitting treatment requires 3-5 days of social downtime. Bruising from subcision lasts 5-7 days but is concealable with makeup after 48 hours. Korean clinics apply cryotherapy and LDM immediately post-treatment, reducing recovery by 30-40%. Most international patients in Seoul schedule their acne pitting treatment 5-7 days before departure.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong recommends 5-7 days in Seoul for your first acne pitting treatment visit: day 1 for consultation and treatment, days 2-5 for bruising recovery, and day 6-7 for a follow-up check. Korean medical tourists often schedule 2-3 week trips to complete 2 sessions spaced 3-4 weeks apart. The clinic operates 365 days including holidays.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong provides 3-month remote follow-up via WhatsApp and LINE after acne pitting treatment. Patients send bi-weekly progress photos for review by Head Director Baek. 38.6% of RE:BERRY’s international patients return 4+ times for multi-session acne pitting treatment protocols. Korean clinics coordinate scheduling for return visits around patient travel dates.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong combines acne pitting treatment with active breakout control using the Acne All-Kill Package at ₩690,000 ($493 USD). The acne laser with RF protocol clears active lesions while subcision + Juvelook addresses existing pitting scars. Korean combination protocols save 3-6 months compared to treating active acne and scars sequentially.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong is 2 minutes from Myeongdong Station Exit 8, operates 365 days per year with 8-language support, and maintains 30+ FDA/MFDS-certified devices. Seoul’s Myeongdong district serves 56.6% of Korea’s 1.17 million foreign dermatology patients annually.
