Oily Skin Treatment Pore & Sebum Control Near Incheon Airport Korea
Medical-grade oily skin treatment with POTENZA RF microneedling and Pico Fraxel at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport. POTENZA from ₩330,000, One-Day Pore Perfect 6-session package ₩990,000. Certified POTENZA clinic open 365 days with airport pickup for international travelers.
What Is Professional Oily Skin Treatment?
Professional oily skin treatment at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport uses a multi-technology approach to address the root causes of excessive sebum production and enlarged pores. The primary treatment is POTENZA RF microneedling, which delivers radiofrequency energy directly to overactive sebaceous glands and dilated pore structures, thermally reducing their size and activity. For comprehensive transformation, the One-Day Pore Perfect package alternates POTENZA RF with Pico Fraxel laser over 6 sessions, attacking pores from both the dermal and epidermal layers.
Oily skin is one of the most common dermatological concerns worldwide, affecting an estimated 40-55% of adults in the 20-40 age group. Excess sebum production leads to a cascade of skin problems: enlarged pores, persistent shine, makeup breakdown, acne breakouts, and uneven skin texture. While over-the-counter products provide temporary oil absorption, they do not address the underlying cause — overactive sebaceous glands and structurally dilated pores. At RE:BERRY Incheon Airport, we use medical-grade treatments that target oily skin at its source. POTENZA RF microneedling at ₩330,000 per session delivers controlled radiofrequency energy through ultra-fine needles directly into the dermis, creating thermal coagulation zones around sebaceous glands and pore walls. This reduces gland activity and physically tightens pore openings. The Tiger Tip technology treats two depths simultaneously for comprehensive results. For patients seeking maximum pore reduction, the One-Day Pore Perfect package (₩990,000 for 6 sessions) alternates POTENZA RF + LDM with Pico Fraxel + LDM. Pico Fraxel targets the epidermal layer with ultra-short picosecond laser pulses to refine skin texture and trigger collagen remodeling in the superficial dermis, while POTENZA addresses the deeper dermal structures. LDM (Low-frequency Dermal Micro-massage) is included in every session to enhance healing and product penetration. Located near Incheon International Airport, RE:BERRY is open 365 days a year and offers complimentary airport pickup, making it ideal for international travelers seeking effective Korean skin treatments. Treatment protocols can be tailored for both single-visit travelers and those with multiple-visit schedules.

How Oily Skin Treatment Works at RE:BERRY
Four-step protocol for effective sebum control and pore reduction.
Skin Analysis & Sebum Assessment
Dr. Cho or Dr. Kim performs a detailed analysis of your skin type, sebum production zones (T-zone vs. full face), pore size, and any associated concerns such as acne, scarring, or texture irregularities. Using magnification and skin analysis tools, a personalized treatment protocol is designed — single-session POTENZA or the comprehensive 6-session Pore Perfect program.
Deep Cleansing & Preparation
Medical-grade deep cleansing removes excess sebum, surface debris, and comedones. Topical anesthetic cream (lidocaine-based) is applied for 30-45 minutes to ensure comfort during POTENZA RF. For Pico Fraxel sessions, numbing time is 15-20 minutes.
POTENZA RF or Pico Fraxel Treatment
POTENZA RF: Controlled radiofrequency energy delivered through microneedles to shrink pores and reduce sebaceous gland activity. Tiger Tip technology treats two depths simultaneously. Pico Fraxel: Ultra-short picosecond laser pulses create micro-zones of epidermal renewal, refining skin texture and stimulating superficial collagen. The alternating protocol maximizes results by targeting different skin layers.
LDM & Post-Treatment Care
Low-frequency Dermal Micro-massage (LDM) applied to enhance wound healing, boost collagen synthesis, and improve product absorption. A calming mask with anti-inflammatory ingredients soothes the treated skin. Detailed aftercare instructions provided in your language. Redness typically subsides within 24-48 hours.

The Science Behind Oily Skin Treatment
Evidence-based research on sebum control, pore reduction, and the mechanisms behind POTENZA RF and Pico Fraxel for oily skin management.
Understanding Sebaceous Gland Overactivity
Oily skin (seborrhea) results from overactive sebaceous glands that produce excess sebum — a lipid-rich substance composed of triglycerides, wax esters, squalene, and fatty acids. Sebum production is regulated by androgens (particularly dihydrotestosterone), genetic predisposition, environmental factors, and dietary influences. In individuals with oily skin, sebaceous glands can be 2-4 times more active than normal, producing significantly more sebum than needed for skin barrier maintenance. This excess oil accumulates in follicular pores, contributing to their visible enlargement and creating an environment conducive to Cutibacterium acnes proliferation and acne formation.
Radiofrequency Microneedling for Sebum Control
POTENZA RF microneedling addresses oily skin through a mechanism distinct from topical treatments: direct thermal modulation of sebaceous glands. When RF energy is delivered at the appropriate depth (typically 1.5-2.5mm where sebaceous glands reside), temperatures of 60-70 degrees Celsius create thermal coagulation zones around the gland structures. This controlled thermal injury reduces gland volume and secretory capacity. Shin et al. (2012) demonstrated that insulated RF microneedling significantly reduced both sebum production and pore size in Korean patients, with effects persisting for 6 months post-treatment. The mechanism involves both immediate gland atrophy and longer-term collagen remodeling around pore structures that physically constricts pore openings.
Pico Fraxel for Epidermal Refinement
Pico Fraxel laser operates in the picosecond range (10^-12 seconds), delivering ultra-short pulses that create laser-induced optical breakdown (LIOB) in the epidermis without significant thermal damage to surrounding tissue. These micro-zones of cavitation stimulate epidermal turnover, smoothing skin texture and refining pore openings at the surface level. Unlike ablative lasers, Pico Fraxel preserves the epidermal barrier, making it safe for all skin types and compatible with oily skin conditions. The alternating protocol with POTENZA RF targets pores at two distinct depths: POTENZA addresses the deep dermal gland structures while Pico Fraxel refines the superficial epidermal pore openings.
LDM (Low-frequency Dermal Micro-massage)
LDM therapy uses dual-frequency ultrasound (3 MHz and 10 MHz) to enhance post-treatment healing. The mechanical stimulation increases fibroblast activity, collagen synthesis, and cellular metabolism while reducing inflammation. When applied after POTENZA RF or Pico Fraxel, LDM accelerates recovery and enhances the collagen remodeling response, contributing to better pore reduction outcomes. Studies by Kruglikov (2013) demonstrated that LDM significantly increases hyaluronic acid synthesis and collagen type I production in dermal fibroblasts.

What Our Patients Say About Oily Skin Treatment
“My T-zone was always shiny by noon no matter what products I used. After 3 POTENZA sessions at RE:BERRY, my oil production dropped dramatically. For the first time, my makeup stays matte all day. The difference is incredible.”
“I chose the One-Day Pore Perfect package because I was tired of visible pores on my cheeks. By session 4, the improvement was obvious — my skin looked smoother and less oily. The alternating POTENZA and Pico Fraxel approach really works.”
“As someone who struggled with oily skin and acne since college, getting professional treatment at RE:BERRY during my Korea trip was the best decision. Dr. Kim explained everything clearly, and the POTENZA treatment addressed both my oiliness and old acne scars.”
Frequently Asked Questions About Oily Skin Treatment
Expert answers to the most common questions about oily skin, pore reduction, and sebum control treatment at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport.
RE:BERRY Incheon Airport offers POTENZA RF microneedling at ₩330,000 per session. The comprehensive One-Day Pore Perfect package (6 sessions of alternating POTENZA + Pico Fraxel + LDM) is ₩990,000. All prices exclude VAT.
POTENZA RF microneedling is the most effective non-surgical treatment for oily skin. It thermally reduces sebaceous gland activity and structurally tightens pore walls. For maximum results, the alternating POTENZA + Pico Fraxel protocol targets pores from both the dermal and epidermal layers.
Yes. RE:BERRY Incheon Airport is designed for international travelers. Open 365 days, airport pickup included, 8-language support. A single POTENZA session takes 30-45 minutes with 24-48 hours recovery. Perfect for layover or short-stay visitors.
A single POTENZA RF session provides noticeable improvement in oiliness and pore size. For significant, lasting results, the 6-session One-Day Pore Perfect package (spaced 2-4 weeks apart over 12-24 weeks) delivers optimal outcomes.
POTENZA RF thermally reduces sebaceous gland activity, producing long-lasting results (6-12+ months). However, sebaceous glands can partially regenerate over time, so annual maintenance sessions are recommended for sustained oil control.
Topical numbing cream is applied 30-45 minutes before POTENZA RF. Most patients rate discomfort at 3-5 on a 10-point scale — mild warmth with slight prickling. Pico Fraxel feels like a light snapping sensation with minimal discomfort.
After POTENZA RF: mild redness for 24-48 hours, possible micro-crusting for 3-5 days, mineral makeup okay the next day. After Pico Fraxel: mild redness for 12-24 hours. Both are compatible with travel schedules.
Yes. By reducing sebum production and minimizing pore size, these treatments significantly decrease the conditions that trigger acne. Less sebum means fewer clogged pores, less C. acnes proliferation, and fewer inflammatory breakouts. POTENZA also improves existing acne scars simultaneously.
POTENZA RF targets the deep dermis (0.5-4.0mm) to structurally reduce sebaceous gland activity and pore size with effects lasting 6-12+ months. Chemical peels only affect the epidermis surface, providing temporary oil reduction for 2-4 weeks. POTENZA delivers significantly superior and longer-lasting results.
All treatments are performed exclusively by Head Director Dr. Cho Sung-Jun or Dr. Kim Dong-Young. Both are Jeisys-certified POTENZA practitioners with extensive experience in oily skin, pore reduction, and sebum management protocols.
Yes. POTENZA RF is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types (I-VI) including sensitive and acne-prone skin. The insulated tip option confines RF energy to the needle tip depth, preventing epidermal damage. Active cystic acne should be treated first, but mild to moderate acne-prone skin can proceed.
A 6-session alternating protocol designed for maximum pore reduction: Sessions 1, 3, 5 use POTENZA RF + LDM (targeting deep dermal pore structures). Sessions 2, 4, 6 use Pico Fraxel + LDM (targeting epidermal pore openings and texture). Spaced 2-4 weeks apart. Price: ₩990,000.
Yes. POTENZA RF pairs well with Juvelook skin boosters for simultaneous pore reduction + hydration, laser toning for pigment + oil control, or HydraFacial for deep cleansing before RF treatment.
Pico Fraxel delivers ultra-short picosecond laser pulses that create micro-zones of epidermal renewal without thermal damage. This accelerates cellular turnover, refines the surface texture of pore openings, and stimulates superficial collagen production. It addresses the visible surface component of enlarged pores.
Before: stop retinoids 3 days prior, arrive with clean skin. After: avoid sun exposure, use SPF 50+ daily, skip AHA/BHA and retinoids for 5-7 days, avoid saunas 48 hours, do not pick micro-crusts, keep skin hydrated with gentle moisturizer.
POTENZA RF produces lasting sebum reduction because it physically reduces sebaceous gland volume. Most patients maintain significantly less oily skin for 6-12 months after completing treatment. Annual maintenance sessions extend results indefinitely.
Yes. By reducing sebum production and tightening pore openings, these treatments decrease the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads). Existing comedones are addressed during the deep cleansing phase before POTENZA RF.
POTENZA RF is suitable for adults 18 and older. Oily skin treatment is most commonly sought by patients aged 20-45, but can benefit anyone with excessive sebum production. Dr. Cho will assess suitability during your consultation.
LDM (Low-frequency Dermal Micro-massage) uses dual-frequency ultrasound (3 MHz and 10 MHz) to enhance post-treatment healing. It stimulates fibroblast activity, increases collagen and hyaluronic acid synthesis, and reduces inflammation. Included in every oily skin treatment session at RE:BERRY.
