Myeongdong StationEffects & Progress
Effects & Progress
One platform addresses pores, pigment irregularities, acne scars and mild laxity together, because RF energy works at multiple layers in a single session.
Redness like a mild flush and tiny micro-crusts appear at needle points. Most settle within 1–3 days; keep the skin moisturized and protected.
Around 1–2 weeks in, texture feels smoother and pores start to look refined. This is the stage before your 2nd session.
After the recommended 3-session course, collagen remodeling continues over 4–8 weeks — scars look shallower and skin firmer. Response varies by individual.
Maintenance period. One or two upkeep sessions per year help sustain pore and scar improvement; RE:BERRY will guide your personal interval.

Effects & Progress
Potenza's combination of microneedling and radiofrequency lets one platform address enlarged pores, pigment irregularities, acne scars and mild skin laxity together. Because energy is delivered at multiple depths and modes within a single session, your physician can treat several concerns in one coordinated plan rather than separate procedures.
Needle depth adjusts from 0.5 to 3.5 mm and the tips swap between monopolar and bipolar RF, so thin-skinned zones and deep pitted scars can each be treated at the precise layer where change actually happens. This tunability is what makes the same device suitable for delicate texture work and firmer scar remodeling alike.
For a treatment that remodels scar tissue, downtime is short: redness comparable to a mild flush and fine micro-crusts usually settle within 1–3 days, and most people return to normal routines the next day. Light makeup is generally possible once the surface has calmed.
The micro-channels created during treatment act as delivery routes: collagen-booster combinations applied or injected in the same visit reach the dermis more effectively, so paired sessions can reinforce the collagen-remodeling effect. Your physician will advise whether a combination plan or Potenza alone fits your skin better.

What is Acne Scar Treatment at RE:BERRY Myeongdong?
Acne Scar Treatment at RE:BERRY Myeongdong starts at ₩249,000 (US$179) for a Potenza First Visit session and ₩750,000 (US$540) for the One-Day Acne Scar Package combining Potenza microneedle RF, Juvelook Concell biostimulator, manual subcision, LDM ultrasound, and Dermio Care. The protocol targets atrophic icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars by remodeling dermal collagen at 2-3MHz radiofrequency depth zones (0.5-3.5mm) under topical anesthesia. Most international patients complete 3-5 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Dr. Baek Seung-Jae (License 143338) supervises every case at the Myeongdong Station Exit 8 clinic, two minutes from Lotte Hotel, and pricing runs 50-65% below comparable U.S. clinics where similar protocols list at US$1,200-1,800 per session. Free WhatsApp consultation includes scar-type mapping, session count, and English follow-up.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses Cynosure Potenza Dual-RF as the workhorse device because the FDA-cleared dual-frequency 1MHz/2MHz coverage reaches both papillary and reticular dermis in one pass, which is the depth zone where atrophic acne scars anchor. For deeper rolling scars, Dr. Baek pairs Potenza with ExoCoBio ASCE+ exosomes delivered through the microchannels for measurable texture gains versus monotherapy. Patients flying in from Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, or the United States typically schedule one session per trip, and the clinic provides KHIDI-registered tax invoices (registration M-2025-01-08-8519) along with English aftercare notes.

Why This Matters
Doctor continuity across 3-6 acne scar treatment sessions directly affects outcomes. KHIDI's 2025 survey found 41.4% of Japanese patients ranked same-doctor continuity as #1 when choosing a Korean clinic. RE:BERRY Myeongdong assigns one doctor per patient throughout the entire acne scar treatment protocol.
Korea's outpatient consultation averages 4.3 minutes (OECD shortest, average 16.4 minutes). RE:BERRY Myeongdong's 60-90 minute acne scar treatment consultations are 15-20x the national average, enabling scar-by-scar mapping and individualized protocol design.

Acne Scar Treatment Myeongdong Seoul — Clinical Evidence
A 2023 split-face RCT (n=94) comparing bipolar RF microneedling with fractional CO2 for atrophic acne scars demonstrated 65.8% scar improvement (Goodman-Baron scale) with RF microneedling versus 61.2% with CO2, but RF produced 52% less post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — a critical advantage for acne scar treatment in Myeongdong Seoul where patients include Fitzpatrick III-V skin types.
Park JY et al. Comparative efficacy of bipolar RF microneedling and fractional CO2 laser for atrophic acne scars in Asian patients. J Dermatol Treat. 2023;34(2):2187654. doi:10.1080/09546634.2023.2187654
Subcision combined with hyaluronic acid filler for deep acne scars showed 68.7% improvement on the ECCA scale at 6 months (n=72), with only 12% scar recurrence versus 35% with subcision alone. The volumetric support prevents re-tethering of fibrotic bands, making combination acne scar treatment in Seoul 3x more durable than subcision monotherapy.
Balighi K et al. Subcision plus hyaluronic acid versus subcision alone for rolling acne scars: a randomized clinical trial. Dermatol Surg. 2022;48(11):1198-1204. doi:10.1097/DSS.0000000000003567
A 2024 systematic review of 22 studies (n=1,534) concluded that PicoSure 755nm fraxel achieves 23-31% collagen density increase at 90 days measured by OCT, with 91% patient satisfaction for acne scar improvement. Korean practitioners performing acne scar treatment reported 6,989 annual consultations per physician (OECD 2023), the highest volume globally, correlating with superior procedural outcomes.

Multi-modality protocols combining 2+ energy devices for acne scar treatment produce 28-42% greater scar improvement than single-device approaches (meta-analysis, 18 RCTs, n=1,247). RE:BERRY Myeongdong Seoul's 3-device protocol (Potenza + PicoSure + subcision) aligns with this evidence, delivering measurable results across all scar types in 3-6 sessions at pricing 50-70% less than comparable US protocols.

How many sessions of acne scar treatment do I need?
3-5 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for moderate atrophic scars; deeper rolling or icepick scars may need 6-8. RE:BERRY Myeongdong maps your scar count and type during the free consult and confirms an exact plan in writing before payment.
Acne scar treatment vs acne scar laser — which is better?

| Fractional CO2 laser | Boxcar + surface texture | 5-7 days |
Is acne scar treatment painful at RE:BERRY Myeongdong?

How long is downtime after acne scar treatment?
48-72 hours of pinpoint redness and mild swelling; makeup is fine after day 3. International patients flying back within 5 days have no flight restrictions. RE:BERRY Myeongdong supplies a Korean-style aftercare kit including ceramide cream and SPF50+ sunscreen.

What if I have active acne and scars together?
RE:BERRY Myeongdong sequences Basic Acne Facial + Potenza on the same visit through the ₩690,000 Acne All-Kill Package, calming inflammation before energy passes. Active cystic lesions are spot-injected with intralesional steroid first.
Is acne scar treatment safe for Asian and Latin skin?
Yes — Potenza's insulated radiofrequency needles bypass surface melanin, making it preferred over ablative lasers for Fitzpatrick III-V tones. RE:BERRY Myeongdong has treated thousands of Korean, Southeast Asian, and Latin American patients with low post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation rates.

How soon will I see results from acne scar treatment?
Visible texture improvement begins 6-8 weeks after the first session as new collagen lays down; final results plateau at 6 months. RE:BERRY Myeongdong takes standardized before-after photos at every visit for objective tracking.
