Advanced Needle RF Treatment
Potenza (C)
Helps improve the appearance of
acne scars and uneven skin texture
What is Potenza (C)?
“Potenza (C)” is a treatment that combines microneedling and radiofrequency (RF) with a drug delivery system to deliver active ingredients deep into the skin, improving acne scars and uneven texture.
It is also effective for fine lines and skin texture around the eyes, making it suitable for use as Potenza (eye) as well.
What is a Drug Delivery System?
A drug delivery system is a procedure in which medication is evenly injected using air that is expelled simultaneously when the needle is withdrawn.
Compared to other treatments where a needle is simply inserted to deliver medication, this method allows a larger amount of medication to be distributed uniformly into the dermal layer.
At our clinic, the procedure is performed after applying a topical anesthetic.
Topical anesthesia: 30 minutes
The medications used
Macume and Juvelook
Macume is a type of PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) that was developed as a substance to be used with Potenza and has been widely utilized.
It promotes collagen production and improves depressions caused by acne scars.
When combined with Potenza’s microneedle RF treatment, it provides a solid and effective treatment outcome.
JuveLook is considered the next-generation version, offering faster and more reliable treatment results.
At our clinic, you can choose either Macume or JuveLuk during your Potenza treatment.
The cost of Macume is included in the Potenza treatment fee.
If you choose JuveLuk, there is an additional option fee of ¥5,500 (tax included) for the cheeks or ¥11,000 (tax included) for the entire face.
Both Macume and JuveLook are safely broken down within the body, making them highly safe to use.
