Hello. This is Doctor Oh Clinic.
Pore care is an important process for refining skin texture and improving elasticity.
In particular, enlarged pores can occur due to various causes such as aging, excessive sebum secretion, and reduced skin elasticity, and there are a variety of treatments to help improve them.
In this post, we will compare the features and differences of representative pore treatments: Potenza, Aqua Peel/Hydrogen Peel, and collagen injections.

- Potenza
Potenza is a treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) microneedles to deliver energy into the dermis layer of the skin, inducing the production of collagen and elastin. It is highly effective not only for reducing pores but also for improving skin elasticity, treating scars, and controlling sebum.
Benefits of Potenza
-
Excellent collagen regeneration effect, improving both pores and skin elasticity
-
Effective for acne scars and refining skin texture
-
Noticeable changes can be seen even after one session, with continued improvement expected
*Depending on each person’s skin condition, swelling and redness may occur, but they usually subside within 1–2 days
- Aqua Peel / Hydrogen Peel
Both of these treatments work by thoroughly cleansing the pores and removing sebum.
Aqua Peel uses a special solution to suction out and remove impurities from inside the pores, while Hydrogen Peel removes active oxygen to enhance the skin’s antioxidant effect.
Effects of Aqua Peel / Hydrogen Peel
-
Immediate skin cleansing effect, leaving the skin clearer
-
Relatively short treatment time
-
Almost no downtime, so daily life can resume right away
*The fundamental pore-reducing effect is somewhat less than that of Potenza and collagen injections

▲ The delicate process of collagen injection, Dr. Oh Clinic Director Oh Jung-min performing a one-on-one treatment
- Collagen Injection
Collagen injection is a method of increasing skin elasticity by injecting ingredients that directly promote collagen synthesis in the skin (such as Rejuran, Sculptra, and Ellansé). It can be effective if the cause of enlarged pores is reduced elasticity.
Effects of collagen injections
-
Improves skin elasticity and naturally reduces the appearance of pores
-
Improves hydration and volume at the same time
-
Gradual effects can be expected through relatively natural changes
*Rather than an immediate pore-reducing effect, long-term improvement should be expected
