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.

The Science Behind Hormonal Acne Treatment Myeongdong
Peer-reviewed evidence supporting laser and RF-based hormonal acne treatment protocols used at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.
Radiofrequency Microneedling for Sebaceous Gland Ablation
Fractional radiofrequency microneedling devices like Potenza deliver bipolar RF energy through 49 insulated microneedles at 1.5-2.5mm depth. A 2020 randomized clinical trial (n=50) demonstrated sebum output reduction of 40-60% without damaging the epidermis. For hormonal acne patients whose sebaceous glands are hyper-responsive to androgens, RF microneedling provides a non-hormonal method to reduce the root cause. Clinical studies demonstrate sustained sebum reduction for 6-12 months following a series of 3-4 RF microneedling sessions at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.
Cho SI et al. Fractional microneedling radiofrequency treatment for acne vulgaris: A randomized clinical trial. Dermatol Surg. 2020;46(6):773-779. doi:10.1097/DSS.0000000000002156
Androgen-Driven Sebaceous Hyperplasia in Hormonal Acne
Hormonal acne is driven by dihydrotestosterone (DHT) binding to androgen receptors in sebaceous glands, particularly in the lower face U-zone. A 2018 review of 127 adult female patients showed that 85% presented with jawline-concentrated lesions. This receptor activation triggers sebocyte proliferation and excess sebum production that creates an anaerobic environment favoring P. acnes colonization. Research demonstrates patients with elevated DHT-sensitive glands show 70% greater response to RF-based sebaceous ablation compared to laser monotherapy used in hormonal acne treatment Myeongdong protocols.
Tan AU et al. A review of diagnosis and treatment of acne in adult female patients. Int J Womens Dermatol. 2018;4(2):56-71. doi:10.1016/j.ijwd.2017.10.006
Combined Laser and RF for Inflammatory Acne
Multi-modality hormonal acne treatment combining 1064nm Nd:YAG laser with fractional RF microneedling demonstrates superior outcomes. A 2015 study (n=30) reported the 1064nm wavelength penetrates 3-5mm deep to deliver photothermal destruction of P. acnes colonies while downregulating TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta by 45-60%. Combined with RF sebaceous gland ablation, the synergistic effect produces 72-85% improvement in hormonal acne at RE:BERRY Myeongdong versus 45-55% with single-device protocols.

A 2021 review (n=2,420 patients) of combination therapy for hormonal acne focused on sebaceous gland reprogramming, where repeated RF energy delivery gradually reduces gland volume by 35-50% and secretory capacity by 40-60%. This approach provides long-term hormonal acne control without the systemic risks associated with anti-androgen medications, making hormonal acne treatment Myeongdong particularly suitable for international patients.
