“I had a pore treatment,

but after a while, it seems like my pores got big again.”

Some people say that after getting a treatment said to remove pores or blackheads, their pores become visible again over time.

In those cases, the cause of enlarged pores may not have been fully addressed.

There is more than one cause of enlarged pores. If the cause is different, the effective treatment will also be different.

Today, let’s take a closer look at why pores become enlarged and which causes Potenza can help address.

Causes of enlarged pores

To determine which treatment is right, you first need to know why pores are enlarged.

The first cause is sebum.

When the sebaceous glands are active, sebum keeps accumulating inside the pores. As this sebum pushes outward, the pore openings gradually become wider.

It usually appears around the nose, the area around the nose, and the forehead, and starts becoming noticeable in the teens and 20s.

The second cause is reduced elasticity.

As we age, collagen decreases and the strength that held the pores in place weakens. Then the pores stretch downward and begin to sag in a teardrop shape.

It usually appears on the cheeks and starts becoming noticeable after the 30s.

If the cause is different, the approach should also be different.

If sebum is the cause, sebum control comes first; if elasticity is the cause, collagen regeneration is needed.

So rather than choosing a treatment just because you heard it is “good for pores,” you should first identify what type of pores you have in order to choose the right treatment.

How does it work on pores?

Potenza is a device that combines microneedles and radiofrequency.

Tiny needles enter the skin, and radiofrequency energy is delivered directly to the dermis from the tips of those needles.

The radiofrequency heat causes collagen to contract, tightening the skin immediately and stimulating the creation of new collagen.

As mentioned earlier, when elasticity decreases, the force holding the pores in place weakens.

Potenza applies heat directly to this area to tighten loosened tissue and help create new collagen.

Its main effect is restoring elasticity, but the radiofrequency heat can also coagulate the sebaceous glands, which may help control sebum as well.

What treatment should I get for my pores?

Then how can you tell which treatment is right for your pores?

There is a simple way to check.

Use your finger to gently pull up the skin on your cheeks. If the pores look smaller when pulled, reduced elasticity is likely the cause.

In such cases, you can expect good results with Potenza.

On the other hand, if the pore size does not change much even when pulled, sebum may be the cause. If sebum is the cause, Potenza alone may not be enough.

In that case, it is more effective to combine it with a laser that works on the sebaceous glands or Etosome PTT.

There is another thing worth knowing before treatment.

Pore treatments are difficult to improve with just one session.

In particular, with Potenza, collagen takes time to regenerate, and the effects become noticeable only after repeated stimulation builds up.

So it is better to think of it as a gradual improvement over time.

Today, we talked about whether Hongdae Potenza would be suitable for those concerned about pores.

If your pores are sagging due to reduced elasticity, you can expect good results with Potenza, but if sebum is the cause,

it is better to consider a different approach.

If you are considering treatment because of enlarged pores, first check why your pores became enlarged and choose the method that fits.
