SOURCE-BASED TREATMENT MAP

The approach, at a glance.

These consultation points summarize procedure-specific descriptions from the official Korean detail page. Suitability, technique, risks and recovery require individual clinical assessment.

Two approaches

The source distinguishes noninvasive contact modes from invasive microneedle modes.

Microneedle RF

The source describes RF energy delivery into the dermis through microneedles.

Tips and energy modes

Tips and monopolar or bipolar modes are discussed; selection depends on the skin assessment.

Assess each concern

Acne, scars, texture and pores are separate concerns named in the source.

How the approach works.

The official page includes microneedle delivery of radiofrequency energy and different treatment modes. The number of passes, depth and settings are clinical choices rather than fixed website promises.

Skin surface assessment before treatment

Skin surface assessment before treatment

The clinician assesses skin texture before planning treatment. Epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue are explained in the text rather than displayed as a cutaway.

The epidermis lies above the dermis, with subcutaneous fat deeper below.

Products and equipment shown by Clair

Rendered treatment tip with a cluster of fine needles above a transparent housing.

Microneedle tip illustration

The official page uses this rendering for its invasive radiofrequency mode. Fine needles provide access through the skin; the exact tip and settings are selected individually.

Surface-contact tip illustration

Clair uses this rendering for its non-invasive radiofrequency mode, with electrodes contacting the skin surface. It is an alternative tip format, not the next step after microneedling.

These are examples listed by the clinic. Your clinician confirms the exact product, tip and availability.

What the consultation considers.

  • Texture and pores

  • Scar assessment

  • Tip and mode

This is a starting point for a consultation, not an individual treatment recommendation.

Localized RF tissue interaction

Fine needles deliver RF within the skin. The small internal view introduces localized tissue interaction without specifying temperature, depth or an individual response.

Recovery, risks & limits.

Some reactions can be temporary; complications can also require treatment. This is not an exhaustive list.

Redness, swelling, pain, irritation and infection may occur.

The FDA has received reports of burns, scars, fat loss and nerve injury with certain uses of RF microneedling.

The device, needle tip, settings and accompanying products need individual discussion.

Your timeline is individual.

Procedure time, anaesthesia, follow-up and return travel depend on your examination and the final plan. Confirm them before paying for flights or accommodation.

Recovery and results vary. Your clinician should explain the procedure-specific risks and aftercare before you decide.

If you develop severe or worsening symptoms after treatment, seek medical attention rather than waiting for an online reply.

Your questions, answered.

Does every Potenza treatment use the same tip?

No. Clair describes different tips and modes. Ask which is proposed, why it fits your concern and what recovery it may involve.

How long should I stay in Korea?

Procedure time, anaesthesia, follow-up and return travel depend on your examination and the final plan. Confirm them before paying for flights or accommodation.

Can I choose the procedure before an examination?

You can explore your options first. The final plan requires an examination, a discussion of alternatives and informed consent. Choosing no treatment is also an option.

How is the cost decided?

The clinic confirms the proposed method, treatment area and product or equipment before giving an individual quote. Ask what is included in follow-up care.

What should I disclose before treatment?

Tell the clinician about previous procedures, implants, medication, allergies and health conditions. Bring available details of earlier injections or surgery.
