How Fractional Laser Works at RE:BERRY Near Seoul
Four-step clinical protocol delivering Seoul-quality fractional laser at an airport-convenient location.
Digital Skin Mapping & Assessment
Dr. Cho Sung-Jun uses dermoscopy and high-resolution digital imaging to map your skin concerns — scar depth (ice-pick, rolling, boxcar), pore diameter, dermal thickness, and Fitzpatrick classification. This 15-minute assessment determines the exact combination of devices, energy parameters, and treatment depths for your customized protocol.
Numbing & Preparation
Topical anesthetic (lidocaine 5%) is applied for 20-30 minutes while the treatment room is prepared. For POTENZA RF, the microneedle cartridge configuration and depth settings are calibrated to your skin analysis. For Pico Fraxel, the diffractive lens array and fluence settings are optimized for your scar type and skin tone.
Precision Fractional Treatment
Pico Fraxel delivers 750ps pulses through a diffractive lens, creating thousands of micro-columns of laser-induced optical breakdown (LIOB) per cm². POTENZA RF passes bipolar radiofrequency through insulated gold-plated needles at 0.5-3.5mm depth. For combination protocols, both devices are applied sequentially — typically Pico Fraxel first for scar tissue, then POTENZA RF for deep collagen stimulation. Treatment takes 30-50 minutes depending on the area and protocol.
Post-Treatment Recovery Protocol
LDM ultrasound therapy reduces post-treatment inflammation and accelerates wound healing. Optional exosome or Juvelook biostimulator application through micro-channels enhances collagen synthesis. You receive a multilingual aftercare kit with SPF 50+, soothing moisturizer, and gentle cleanser. Follow-up check can be scheduled the next day or remotely via photo consultation for travelers returning to Seoul or departing Korea.

The Science Behind Fractional Laser Near Seoul
Peer-reviewed clinical evidence supporting RE:BERRY’s fractional laser protocols.
Picosecond Fractional Laser for Acne Scars in Asian Patients
Picosecond fractional lasers have become the treatment of choice for acne scars in Seoul-area clinics due to their exceptional safety profile in Asian skin. Tian et al. (2021) conducted a prospective study specifically in Chinese patients (Fitzpatrick III-IV) comparing picosecond fractional laser against Q-switched Nd:YAG for atrophic acne scars. After 4 sessions at monthly intervals, the picosecond group achieved 62.4% mean improvement on the ECCA (Echelle de Cotation Clinique des Cicatrices d’Acne) grading scale, versus 38.7% for Q-switched Nd:YAG. PIH occurred in only 4.2% of picosecond patients compared to 16.7% for Q-switched. The study concluded that picosecond fractional laser offers a superior efficacy-safety ratio for acne scars in East Asian patients. doi:10.1111/jocd.14032
Bipolar RF Microneedling: The Korean Innovation
Radiofrequency microneedling was pioneered and refined in South Korea, with POTENZA (Jeisys Medical) representing the latest evolution. Shin et al. (2020) evaluated bipolar RF microneedling with insulated needles for facial rejuvenation in 45 Korean patients. At 3-month follow-up after 3 sessions, the study documented a 31.4% improvement in skin laxity, 27.8% reduction in wrinkle depth, and 34.2% improvement in pore size as measured by digital photography analysis. Histological biopsies revealed a 38% increase in dermal collagen density. Side effects were limited to transient erythema (100%) and mild edema (22%), all resolving within 72 hours. This data supports RF microneedling as a safe, effective fractional treatment for the Seoul-area patient demographic. doi:10.1111/dsu.14386
Sequential Combination Therapy: Evidence for Multi-Device Protocols
The Korean practice of combining multiple energy devices in a single treatment session has strong clinical backing. Kang et al. (2019) randomized 60 patients with moderate-to-severe atrophic acne scars into three groups: picosecond fractional alone, RF microneedling alone, and sequential combination (picosecond + RF in the same session). At 6-month follow-up, the combination group achieved 71.2% mean scar improvement versus 52.8% (picosecond alone) and 48.3% (RF alone). Patient satisfaction scores were significantly higher in the combination group (8.7/10 vs 7.1 and 6.9). The synergistic benefit is attributed to complementary collagen stimulation pathways: photomechanical disruption (picosecond) plus thermal denaturation (RF). doi:10.1007/s00266-019-01502-8

What Seoul-Area Patients Say About Fractional Laser
“I live in Gangnam and drive to RE:BERRY Incheon because their combination protocol is genuinely different from the single-device treatments I was getting at Gangnam clinics. The Pico Fraxel + POTENZA combo cleared my acne scars more in 4 sessions than 8 sessions of CO2 fractional.”
“Had my first fractional laser session during a Seoul business trip. The Incheon Airport location was incredibly convenient — took the AREX from Seoul Station, got treated, and was back in the city by evening. Three days of mild redness, then amazing skin.”
“I compared fractional laser prices across 12 Seoul clinics. RE:BERRY Incheon had the best value — ₩150,000 per Pico Fraxel session versus ₩300,000-450,000 in Gangnam. Same device, same quality, half the price. Plus they are open on holidays when other clinics close.”

Pico Fraxel starts at ₩150,000 per session. POTENZA RF microneedling is ₩330,000 per session. The One-Day Acne Scar Package (POTENZA + Juvelook + subcision + LDM + Dermio Care) is ₩750,000. The 6-session Silky Skin-Care Package is ₩1,690,000. All prices exclude VAT.
Take the AREX (Airport Railroad Express) from Seoul Station to Incheon Airport Terminal 1 — approximately 40 minutes direct. From Gangnam, take Line 2 to Seoul Station then transfer to AREX. RE:BERRY is minutes from ICN Terminal 1. Airport pickup is available for international patients.
Yes. Pico Fraxel at RE:BERRY is ₩150,000 per session versus ₩300,000-450,000 at typical Gangnam clinics. POTENZA RF is ₩330,000 versus ₩400,000-600,000 in Gangnam. Same devices, same quality — lower overhead outside of Gangnam’s premium rental district.
For Asian skin, the combination of Pico Fraxel + POTENZA RF achieves the best results. Clinical studies show 71% scar improvement with combination therapy versus 53% with picosecond alone and 48% with RF alone. RE:BERRY Incheon Airport offers both devices and personalized combination protocols.
Mild scars: 3 sessions. Moderate scars: 4-5 sessions. Severe atrophic scarring: 6 sessions with the Silky Skin-Care Package. Sessions are typically 3-4 weeks apart. Dr. Cho Sung-Jun creates a customized plan after your skin assessment.
Absolutely. RE:BERRY is open 365 days including weekends and Korean holidays. Same-day consultation and treatment is available for most fractional laser procedures. For Seoul residents, evening appointments can be arranged. For travelers, we can schedule around flight times.
Both Pico Fraxel and POTENZA RF are specifically designed for safe use on Fitzpatrick III-V skin. Pico Fraxel uses photomechanical (non-thermal) LIOB, and POTENZA RF delivers energy below the epidermis via insulated needles. Clinical studies in Asian patients show less than 3% PIH rates — significantly safer than CO2 fractional.
Pico Fraxel: 3-5 days mild redness. POTENZA RF: 1-3 days mild redness. Combination: 3-5 days total. Most patients apply makeup after 24-48 hours. Seoul residents typically return to office work the next day with minimal visible signs.
For POTENZA RF, same-day flights are generally acceptable with 1-3 days of mild redness expected. For Pico Fraxel, we recommend 24 hours before flying. RE:BERRY’s proximity to ICN airport makes pre-flight or post-arrival treatment scheduling very convenient.
Fractional laser creates micro-columns of energy in the dermis for scar remodeling and collagen stimulation. Laser toning uses sub-threshold fluence across the entire skin surface for gradual pigment reduction and glow. They address different concerns and are often combined in Korean treatment protocols.
Yes. The Escape from Widened Pores package (₩990,000 for 6 sessions) alternates POTENZA + LDM with Pico Fraxel + LDM to tighten the perifolicular collagen matrix around each pore. Patients typically achieve 30-50% visible pore reduction after completing the protocol.
Before: discontinue retinoids 5-7 days prior, avoid chemical peels 3-5 days prior, no sun tanning for 2 weeks, arrive with clean skin. After: use only SPF 50+ and gentle moisturizer for 3 days, avoid AHA/BHA/retinoids for 5-7 days, no sauna or swimming for 48 hours.
Yes. Pico Fraxel and POTENZA RF are both effective for neck lines, chest wrinkles (decolletage aging), and hand rejuvenation. Neck treatments are especially popular among Seoul patients in their 40s-50s. Additional treatment areas may increase session time by 10-15 minutes.
All fractional laser and RF procedures are performed personally by Dr. Cho Sung-Jun (Head Director, License #138858) or Dr. Kim Dong-Young (License #147291). Both physicians specialize in laser and energy-based treatments. No delegation to non-physician staff.
Topical numbing cream (lidocaine 5%) is applied for 20-30 minutes before treatment. With numbing, most patients rate Pico Fraxel as 2-3/10 pain and POTENZA RF as 3-4/10. The procedure itself takes 20-40 minutes. Some patients describe a mild warm prickling sensation.
The collagen produced by fractional laser treatment is permanent — new collagen fibers remain in the dermis. However, natural aging continues, so annual maintenance sessions preserve optimal results. Acne scar improvements are particularly durable since scar tissue is permanently remodeled.
Yes. Combining fractional laser with Rejuran HB or Juvelook skin boosters is a standard Korean protocol. The micro-channels created by fractional treatment allow deeper penetration of biostimulators, enhancing both healing speed and overall results.
This ₩990,000 package includes POTENZA-based customized skin booster, Rejuran Healer 2cc, personalized toning, personalized laser, LDM, modeling mask, and custom skin boosters (exosome or Juvelook). Designed for patients who want comprehensive skin improvement in a single visit.
