Ddukseom Dermatology for Enlarged Pores: From ReSFX to Mirajet and Juvelook, Which Method Is Right for Me?

Comprehensive Solution for Enlarged Pores

Hello, this is Raon Dermatology in Ddukseom:)​

When pores become enlarged, skin texture becomes rougher, makeup may sit unevenly, and pores can appear even more noticeable. In particular, when temperature and humidity are unstable like they are these days, sebum secretion becomes more active and pores can easily widen! However, it is not simply a matter of sebum alone. Because many factors such as reduced elasticity, decreased collagen, and UV damage work together, it is difficult to improve with just one method. That is why a combined approach is needed depending on the skin condition. Today, let’s take a detailed look at ways to manage enlarged pores from multiple angles!

Comprehensive Solution for Enlarged Pores

Which areas do pores most often enlarge?

The areas where pores most often enlarge are around the nose, the forehead, the sides of the cheeks, and the jawline. The area around the nose has densely packed sebaceous glands, so it produces a lot of sebum and pores are often deeply set, which can also lead to blackheads or whiteheads. If you frequently touch the area with your hands or repeatedly squeeze it, the pores can become even larger.

The forehead is not only prone to sebum secretion but is also often exposed to UV rays, making dead skin cells thicken and pores more likely to clog. The sides of the cheeks have thinner skin and a lot of movement from facial muscles, so as elasticity decreases, the pores tend to stretch into an oval shape! The jawline is also an area where pores can easily enlarge. Rather than sebaceous glands, muscle movement and skin sagging are the main causes, so as people age, the pores tend to gradually expand. Since the causes differ by area, a detailed approach is needed when choosing a procedure.

Stella M22 ReSFX

The first pore treatment to look at is ReSFX, part of the Stella M22 system. It is a non-ablative fractional laser that uses a 1,565 nm wavelength to induce collagen regeneration in the dermis without removing the skin’s surface. You can think of it as a principle where the laser stimulates the dermis in the form of tiny columns of heat, replacing damaged collagen with new collagen and tightening the skin.

It is especially effective on the nose, sides of the cheeks, and forehead where pores are deep and wide. After treatment, the skin texture becomes smoother, and enlarged pores gradually become smaller, leading to more radiant-looking skin! Because the recovery period is short and daily life can resume quickly, it is one of the treatments that busy office workers or students can receive without much burden. In addition, ReSFX also helps improve mild scars and fine wrinkles, making it effective for balancing the overall condition of the skin:)

• No crusting / quick recovery

Potenza RF microneedling

Potenza is also known as a representative pore-care method! It is a device that delivers radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis through fine needles to promote the production of collagen and elastin. Because it does not greatly irritate the skin surface, recovery is quick, and the thermal energy is delivered precisely to the dermis, helping strengthen elasticity and tighten pores.

In particular, noticeable improvement can be expected in areas where pores have enlarged due to sagging, such as the jawline or the sides of the cheeks. Another advantage is that the intensity and depth of treatment can be adjusted, allowing for a detailed procedure suited to skin thickness and the characteristics of each area. After treatment, not only pores but also fine wrinkles, skin texture, and overall elasticity improve together, and over time you can experience a naturally more refined complexion.

Mirajet & Juvelook

Mirajet is an injection device that delivers active ingredients deep into the skin without needles using high-pressure air jets. Because the needle does not touch the skin, pain and bleeding are minimal, and it does not damage the skin barrier, so even sensitive skin can receive the treatment without much burden. It can also inject medication evenly across a wide area with consistent pressure, making it efficient for full-face pore care!

When Juvelook is injected using Mirajet, the improvement effect can be maximized even further. Juvelook is a collagen booster that combines PDLLA and hyaluronic acid, and it gradually breaks down in the skin while inducing new collagen production. Its distinguishing feature is the dual effect of replenishing both moisture and elasticity! When Juvelook is injected with Mirajet, the skin surface becomes smoother, elasticity is strengthened in the dermis, and the pores around the nose and cheeks can gradually tighten. You can understand this as a combined synergy that provides immediate hydration and long-term elasticity improvement at the same time.

Why combination treatment is needed

As noted above, pores form as various factors such as excess sebum secretion, reduced elasticity, and decreased collagen act together. That is why there are limitations to a single procedure! For this reason, combination treatment that addresses multiple causes at the same time by combining several procedures is needed.

For example, ReSFX promotes regeneration in the dermis to help reduce the depth of pores, and when Mirajet and Juvelook are used together, hydration and collagen production can be promoted at the same time to improve overall skin texture. This kind of combined solution is meaningful not just for simply “reducing pores,” but for changing skin texture, elasticity, and radiance together. Through a dermatologist’s detailed diagnosis and a customized treatment plan, it is important to find the improvement direction that best suits your skin condition:)

<Reasons combination treatment is needed>

• Stimulates different layers of action / balanced combination approach

• Immediate / long-term improvement in pore tightening

• Comprehensive improvement in skin texture / elasticity / radiance
