Why We Become Careful When Explaining Pore Treatment at Sogang University Dermatology

When people receive counseling about pore treatment,

many surprisingly end up feeling this way.

“Your explanation is detailed, but you’re not saying it will definitely get better.”

“Not being told it will improve in one session actually makes me more uneasy.”

That is why, even at Sogang University Dermatology,

people often say that when they receive counseling for pore treatment,

it feels a bit conservative.

But this attitude

is not because the procedure is recommended timidly,

but because of the nature of the skin concern called pores.

Why dermatology specialists do not make simple claims about pore treatment

Pores are

not a problem caused by a single factor,

unlike wrinkles or blemishes.

• Reduced skin elasticity

• Changes in the collagen structure of the dermis

• Sebum production

• Skin thickness and recovery ability

These factors overlap

and appear as visible pore shapes.

So from a dermatology specialist’s perspective,

it is difficult to confidently say,

“This procedure will take care of it after a few sessions.”

Even when receiving the same pore treatment,

the skin response and the effects people feel

can differ greatly from person to person.

Why Potenza becomes the basis of pore treatment

There is a clear reason why

Potenza is used so often in pore treatment.

Potenza is

a micro-needle RF method that

directly stimulates the dermis inside the skin

to create an environment for collagen regeneration.

Rather than covering pores from the surface,

it is an approach that changes the skin structure

supporting pores from the inside.

That is why, at Sogang University Dermatology as well,

Potenza is often explained as the basic step

in pore treatment.

Why Potenza alone can feel insufficient

The problem starts here.

Potenza

creates the conditions for regeneration to occur,

but how much regeneration actually happens

depends on the individual’s skin condition.

• When the skin is thin

• When recovery is slow

• When collagen production is weak

Under these conditions,

even after Potenza treatment,

people may feel,

“The skin texture improved, but the pores are still vague.”

Because of this difference,

a specialist tends to take a conservative approach

when explaining pore treatment.

So Potenza is explained together with regenerative treatment

In pore treatment consultations these days,

the reason Potenza is often discussed together with

Potenza + Rejuran or Juvelook Skin rather than Potenza alone

is also because of this.

If Potenza plays the role of giving the skin “stimulation,”

Rejuran or Juvelook Skin

plays the role of actually filling in the regeneration afterward.

This difference

leads to a difference in how it is felt.

Sensory points of Potenza + Juvelook Skin

Juvelook Skin

is a treatment that improves the collagen-producing environment

and gradually increases skin density and elasticity.

When used together after Potenza,

• the skin around the pores can feel firmer

• improvements in skin texture tend to last longer

• the pores may feel as if they are slowly tightening

In many cases, people notice these changes.

That is why some people say,

“It feels different this time compared to when I only had Potenza.”

The case for choosing Potenza + Rejuran is different

Rejuran

is a treatment focused on skin regeneration and recovery.

• For skin that is sensitive

• When recovery after the procedure is slow

• When dryness is severe

• ​

For this kind of skin,

after Potenza stimulation,

combining it with Rejuran

often makes the skin condition feel much more stable.

You can think of Juvelook Skin as being stronger for “density and elasticity”

and Rejuran as being stronger for “recovery and stability.”

Why specialists explain combinations cautiously

In pore treatment,

the situation everyone wants to avoid most is

“expectations becoming too high.”

Pores are a skin concern

that requires time and cumulative effects

before they become noticeably better.

So rather than giving exaggerated expectations from the start,

a dermatology specialist will first explain

• the current skin condition

• the possibility of a response

• the structure that needs to be maintained

This approach may feel conservative,

but it is actually a way to increase long-term satisfaction.

In pore treatment, direction matters more than results

When receiving pore treatment counseling at Sogang University Dermatology,

it is important not just to hear about “how many Potenza sessions,”

but to also be told the direction,

such as:

✔ whether to proceed with Potenza alone

✔ whether to combine it with regenerative treatment

✔ whether to adjust it while watching the skin’s response

The difference in how Potenza alone

and Potenza + Rejuran or Juvelook Skin

are felt

is created by this “direction setting.”

If you are considering pore treatment

Pores are

not a problem that can be solved in one go,

but rather a process of changing the skin structure.

So if a specialist explains things cautiously,

that may not mean they are hesitating;

it can be a sign that they are properly assessing the skin condition.

If you are considering pore treatment at Sogang University Dermatology,

rather than asking which procedure is stronger,

👉 the more realistic choice is to ask

which combination is right for your skin.
