What Happens During Your Acne Treatment Visit
From the moment you walk in near Myeongdong Station to your post-treatment care.
Arrival & Check-in (5 min)
Exit Myeongdong Station at Exit 6 and walk 2 minutes to RE:BERRY. Your multilingual coordinator greets you in your language. Complete a brief digital skin questionnaire on a tablet. If you booked via KakaoTalk, WhatsApp, or Line, your file is already prepared. Walk-ins are accommodated based on same-day availability.
Doctor Consultation & Acne Assessment (15 min)
Dr. Seung-Jae Baek or Dr. Hoon-Sung Son examines your skin under dermatoscope magnification. Active lesions, post-inflammatory marks, and scar types are documented. The doctor selects Potenza tip type (insulated for active acne, non-insulated for scarring), needle depth, and RF energy level specific to your acne pattern. A transparent price quote is provided before any treatment begins.
Potenza Treatment Session (40 min)
After 30 minutes of topical numbing, the Potenza procedure takes approximately 20-30 minutes depending on treatment area. The Tiger Tip cartridge delivers RF energy through 49 microneedles while the drug delivery system simultaneously pushes exosome solution into micro-channels. You feel a warm prickling sensation rated 3-5 on a 10-point scale. The entire treatment is performed by the consulting physician, never delegated to technicians.
Dermio Care Recovery & Departure (20 min)
Post-treatment Dermio Care protocol soothes the skin for 15 minutes using electroporation and LED therapy. A mineral SPF is applied before you leave. Written aftercare instructions in your language are provided along with a QR code for 48-hour WhatsApp/KakaoTalk follow-up with our nursing team. Head back to exploring Myeongdong with mild redness that fades within hours.

Why Myeongdong Patients Choose Potenza for Acne
Evidence-based approach to acne treatment using radiofrequency microneedling at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.
The Pathophysiology of Acne and RF Intervention
Acne vulgaris results from four interrelated factors: excess sebum production, follicular hyperkeratinization, Cutibacterium acnes colonization, and inflammation. Traditional treatments address one or two of these pathways — topical retinoids target keratinization, antibiotics target bacteria, and isotretinoin addresses sebum production systemically. Potenza RF microneedling is unique in addressing all four simultaneously through a localized, in-office procedure. The bipolar radiofrequency energy creates controlled thermal injury at the level of the pilosebaceous unit, damaging overactive sebaceous glands while the resulting wound-healing response brings anti-inflammatory mediators to the treated area. The microneedling channels physically break apart comedonal plugs and allow the drainage of micro-abscesses. When combined with the exosome drug delivery used at RE:BERRY Myeongdong, anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors are deposited directly at the site of acne pathology, creating a comprehensive intervention that works from within the dermis rather than from the skin surface.
Myeongdong Tourism and Single-Session Protocols
International visitors to Myeongdong face a unique constraint: limited time in Seoul. RE:BERRY Myeongdong has developed condensed acne protocols specifically for tourists who may only have one treatment opportunity. Clinical data from Lee et al. (2019) demonstrated that even a single session of fractional RF microneedling produced a 35% reduction in inflammatory acne lesion count at 4 weeks, with improvements continuing to 12 weeks post-treatment. This means a tourist treated at RE:BERRY Myeongdong will see progressive improvement during the weeks after returning home. For patients able to schedule 2-3 visits during a longer stay in Korea, the full Potenza acne course offers 60-80% improvement in both active acne and scarring. RE:BERRY’s 365-day operation and walk-in policy ensures that even spontaneous visitors to Myeongdong can access treatment without advance scheduling.
Exosome-Enhanced Recovery for Traveling Patients
The addition of exosome concentrate to Potenza treatment is particularly relevant for traveling patients who need rapid recovery. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles containing mRNA, microRNA, and growth factors that modulate the inflammatory response and accelerate tissue repair. A 2021 study by Kim et al. in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology found that exosome application after RF microneedling reduced erythema duration by 40% compared to RF microneedling alone. The same study showed that transepidermal water loss (TEWL) — a measure of skin barrier integrity — returned to baseline 48 hours faster in the exosome group. For Myeongdong tourists who need to minimize visible redness before sightseeing or returning to work, this accelerated recovery is a substantial practical benefit. RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s Acne All-Kill Package includes 2cc of ASCE+ exosome concentrate as a standard component specifically for this reason, distinguishing it from basic Potenza treatments offered at other Myeongdong area clinics.

“What surprised me was the thoroughness. Dr. Son spent 15 minutes analyzing my skin before recommending the exact tip type and depth for each zone of my face. The Chinese-speaking coordinator made the whole experience seamless.”
