POTENZA RF Potenza

What's new? What are the differences from before?

While microneedle RF scar treatments have been performed previously, POTENZA RF (Potenza) is equipped with diverse chips and is characterized by the ability to treat not only scar and rejuvenation therapies but also various conditions such as acne and erythema. It is a convenient machine capable of addressing various skin diseases with a single device. Furthermore, POTENZA RF (Potenza) is equipped with a proprietary drug delivery system. By emitting microneedle RF onto skin with medication applied and infusing it, active ingredients can now be efficiently delivered to the dermal layer. Compared to other mesotherapy methods, POTENZA RF (Potenza) is also characterized by the ability to distribute components more uniformly. The medication used can be selected and prepared according to your individual skin concerns.

How does it improve skin? What is the mechanism of action on lesions?

When microneedles create fine puncture wounds and the dermal layer experiences thermal damage from RF, the skin's wound healing response activates, creating new collagen and elastin to restore the original state. This process continues for approximately 2 months, resulting in skin firmness and elasticity, with expected improvements in crater-textured skin from scarring, wrinkles, and enlarged pores. Additionally, the thermal energy from RF causes protein denaturation within the skin, providing immediate tightening effects. 【Acne Treatment】 For acne treatment, a specialized acne treatment chip applies RF directly to each individual acne lesion, destroying the sebaceous glands where acne develops and preventing recurrence.

Skin Rejuvenation via Needle RF

Using a skin-beautification-specific chip, mild radiofrequency (RF) thermal energy is applied to promote skin regeneration and lead to beautiful skin. Using a bipolar RF emission method, heat is applied to the upper dermal layer, and various effects such as skin rejuvenation and improvement of fine lines can be expected.

Treat acne at its root and prevent recurrence!

To prevent acne recurrence, it is important to eliminate the fundamental cause of acne. POTENZA acne treatment uses a 1-needle chip to transmit RF (radiofrequency) energy directly to the sebaceous glands without causing epidermal inflammation, making it possible to destroy the sebaceous glands. Additionally, by destroying the sebaceous glands throughout the face that cause acne with RF, it is possible to achieve root-cause treatment of recurring acne. Effectiveness can be expected for inflamed acne, recurring acne, acne scars, and enlarged pores.

Tightening and Firming Treatment via Radiofrequency (RF)

Diamond tightening treatment employs a unique emission method where both monopolar and bipolar RF are emitted in a single shot. By effectively transmitting monopolar energy, which penetrates deeply into the deep dermal layer, and bipolar energy, which transmits high-density energy uniformly between electrodes to the epidermis and superficial dermis, into the subcutaneous tissue, volumetric Sagging (skin laxity) can be tightened. Immediate skin tightening effects are achieved through collagen contraction, and fibroblasts exposed to thermal effects promote mid- to long-term increases in collagen and elastin production. RF is emitted from electrodes arranged in a fractional pattern, reducing skin burden, minimizing discomfort, and maximizing results. The characteristic minimal downtime is also noteworthy.

Diamond Chip

"POTENZA Diamond" differs from conventional POTENZA in that it is a needle-free, non-needle chip. By continuously emitting two different electrode types—monopolar and bipolar—with radiofrequency (RF) in a single shot, tightening is achieved by uniformly transmitting energy to deep layers. This is a tightening chip.

Tightening Treatment via Needle RF

The most important element for skin firmness and elasticity is "collagen" in the dermis layer. Since collagen is made of protein, applying heat directly to collagen causes protein denaturation, which can be expected to provide a lifting effect to the entire skin. Furthermore, since heat is transmitted to the dermis layer where heat is not normally applied, a "wound-healing effect" can be expected to repair that damage. This promotes early recovery, causing large amounts of collagen and other substances to be generated within the skin, resulting in a secondary effect of increased skin firmness and elasticity.

Redness improvement with needles

In the case of rosacea, we aim for fundamental improvement by directly irradiating RF (radiofrequency) energy to VEGF (true blood vessels) that are the underlying cause. In addition to redness improvement, heat is applied to the upper layer of the dermis, and various effects such as skin rejuvenation and improvement of fine wrinkles can be expected.

Triple effect of "Wound healing," "RF irradiation," and "Drug delivery system"

1⃣【Wound-healing effect from needles】 Fine needles at the tip of the chip damage the skin and promote "wound healing" to produce collagen. Microscopic wound holes open on the skin surface, and as the body attempts to heal these wounds, the "wound-healing switch" activates, normalizing skin metabolism (turnover). At the same time, blood circulation also improves, providing improvements in fine wrinkles and dullness as well as pore-tightening effects. 2⃣【Tightening & tissue regeneration from RF irradiation】 RF (radiofrequency) is irradiated from the tip of the fine needles. The thermal energy from this RF (radiofrequency) is transmitted to the dermis layer, causing protein contraction and delivering expected lifting effects. As a secondary effect, the generation of collagen and elastin within the dermis is promoted, boosting skin firmness and elasticity. 3⃣【Volume-boosting effect from skin injection】

【Drug delivery system】 Skin volume increases with the "drug delivery system" that accurately and uniformly delivers appropriate medications deep into the skin. By increasing tissue volume through three-dimensional effects, symptoms such as fine wrinkles are improved. The medications used can be selected to match your skin concerns.
