Pore Laser Effects and Progress

What improves?

Thermal stimulation may induce collagen regeneration, which can gradually narrow pores.

When and how do results appear?

  1. Immediately After Treatment

    Redness and mild heat sensation may occur

    Care & cautions Cold compresses and UV protection are necessary

  2. 1 Week

    Swelling may decrease, and exfoliation may begin

    Care & cautions Minimize friction and irritation

  3. 1 Month

    You may begin to notice changes in pores and skin texture

    Care & cautions Maintain hydration, regular care is recommended

  4. 3 Months

    Collagen regeneration effects may accumulate during this period

    Care & cautions Additional sessions may be discussed depending on individual differences

Progress may vary depending on individual skin condition and treatment plan. According to a 2016 study, facial pores develop due to a combination of sebaceous gland activity and decreased dermal support structure, and treatment options should be selected individually (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).

Treatment results and recovery may vary depending on the individual and the treatment area. The timeline shown is for general reference only.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does pore laser treatment cause pain?

Since a numbing cream is applied to the treatment area beforehand, most people may only feel mild heat. The level of discomfort can vary depending on individual skin sensitivity.

How many sessions of pore laser treatment are typically needed?

It depends on the condition of your pores, but many people choose a 3-session package. If you are in the early stages, you may notice changes even after just one session.

Are Potenza and pore laser the same treatment?

Potenza is one of the devices used for pore laser treatments and is often combined with ingredients such as PDRN, exosome, or Juvelook.

Can pore laser treatment also improve small acne bumps?

Along with improving skin texture, there may be cases where the appearance of small acne bumps becomes less noticeable, but results may vary.

Is it okay to use acne ointment together with the treatment?

If you are currently using an ointment, it is best to inform your provider during the consultation before treatment. The treatment schedule may need to be adjusted depending on the ingredients.

What is the difference between PDRN Potenza and Exosome Potenza?

The combined ingredients are different, and the prices also vary: PDRN Potenza is ₩290,000, and Exosome Potenza is ₩350,000.

(Non-covered services / VAT not included)

In what cases is Juvelook Potenza suitable?

This combination is considered in advanced cases where enlarged pores and decreased elasticity appear together.

Is a 3-session package more cost-effective than paying per session?

Since the per-session price is lower, a package may be more cost-effective if you are planning multiple sessions.

How long does a pore laser treatment session take?

It varies depending on the package, but generally takes about 20 to 40 minutes.

Can I wear makeup during the recovery period?

It is recommended to start with light makeup gradually after swelling and redness have subsided.

Are there cases where pore laser treatment is not recommended?

If you have severe skin inflammation or a lot of active acne, it is best to first undergo calming treatment before deciding on the procedure.

How long do the effects of pore laser treatment last?

The duration of results may vary depending on collagen regeneration speed and individual skin condition, so regular maintenance is recommended.
