Quick answer

How are acne, pores and pigmentation treated together?

Acne, enlarged pores and pigmentation often appear together and are best treated as one plan. Active acne is calmed first with medical care, peels or extraction; pores and acne scars are then refined with RF microneedling or fractional laser; and remaining marks and uneven tone are faded with pigment lasers such as laser toning. Most people need a series of sessions a few weeks apart.

At MIN Clinic we start with AI 3D skin analysis to measure pores, redness and pigment, then sequence treatments so inflamed skin is not over-treated. The results below are close-up photographs of real patients.

FAQ

Acne, pore & pigmentation treatment questions we hear most

Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.

How many sessions do I need for acne scars or pores?

Most patients need 3–5 sessions spaced about 4 weeks apart. Collagen remodelling continues for months after each treatment.

Can I treat acne and pigmentation at the same time?

Often yes, but inflamed acne is usually calmed first. The doctor sequences treatments to avoid irritation and post-inflammatory pigmentation.

What is Potenza?

Potenza is RF microneedling that delivers radiofrequency energy through fine needles to tighten pores and remodel scars.

Is there downtime?

Laser toning has little or no downtime. RF microneedling and fractional laser cause redness or flaking for a few days.

Do I need to stay in Seoul for multiple sessions?

Not necessarily. Many visitors have one or two sessions per trip and continue care at home or on their next visit.
