Solve the root cause of acne by destroying sebaceous glands! Agnes (Potenza RF, Elysion RF)
Agnes is a procedure that delivers high-frequency energy using micro-insulated needles. It can be considered if you are concerned about recurrent acne or excessive sebum secretion in specific areas. It is designed to selectively control sebaceous glands by directly delivering energy to them, which are one of the main causes of acne, and the laser destroys only the sebaceous glands, reducing the burden of skin surface damage. * VAT separate * Tip fee separate

Agnes Treatment Guide
Agnes treatment is not simply a method of delivering high-frequency energy to a single troubled spot. We approach each case carefully, tailored to the individual's skin characteristics and lesion type.
1. 'Scattered Pattern' Design Considering Sebaceous Gland Distribution
Sebaceous glands tend to be widely distributed, so the treatment is performed in a way that addresses the entire sebaceous gland cluster. Appropriate output and depth are adjusted for each point, precisely delivering high-frequency energy from the center to the periphery of the lesion.
2. Needle Length and High-Frequency Output Adjustment Tailored to Anatomical Depth and Lesion
We use needles of appropriate length, considering the anatomical depth of the treated area. By applying optimal output values tailored to the characteristics of each lesion, we can enhance the expected improvement effects.
Energy intensity and delivery time are precisely adjusted according to the size and depth of each lesion. Even during repeat treatments, we focus on minimizing skin burden by making subtle positional adjustments rather than excessively stimulating the same spot.
3. Treatment Process Guidance with Real-time Monitoring of Lesion 'Temperature Response'
High-frequency treatment aims for localized thermal coagulation at around 60-70 degrees Celsius. When appropriate thermal energy is delivered, a subtle swelling or color change in the treated lesion can be observed during the procedure. Our medical team monitors these lesion responses in real-time to prevent side effects that could arise from excessive coagulation. Once the treatment is complete, we will check the treated area together and can provide supplementary measures if necessary.
4. Post-Treatment Soothing Care
Immediately after the treatment, we apply a Jawoongo modeling pack to help soothe the skin and quickly alleviate thermal irritation. This helps reduce the burden of the skin recovery process and provides comfort. With this careful approach, we aim to improve acne and sebum-related skin problems.
Agnes Treatment for Improving Fordyce Spots, Yellowish Bumps on the Lips
Fordyce spots appear as small, white or yellowish bumps on the inner lips or oral mucosa.
Although these are known as exposed normal sebaceous glands, they can be a cosmetic concern.
Agnes's insulated high-frequency needle treatment selectively coagulates only the sebaceous glands while minimizing damage to the outer skin.
It can help improve the appearance of Fordyce spots and aims to reduce the likelihood of side effects.
It is a method that can be considered for aesthetic improvement without medication.
Agnes Treatment for Bumpy Symptoms Under the Eyes, Sebaceous Gland Hyperplasia
Bumpy or rough-looking skin under the eyes is a common symptom.
These symptoms are often not merely pore issues but rather sebaceous gland hyperplasia.
Agnes treatment can also be applied to thin and sensitive areas, such as under the eyes.
By selectively controlling only the sebaceous glands, a more natural improvement can be expected.
It can help improve under-eye skin texture while reducing the risk of scars or hyperpigmentation.
Features of Agnes Treatment
- 01. It can help reduce the likelihood of acne by regulating sebaceous glands.
- 02. With minimal epidermal damage, it can lower the risk of scars and hyperpigmentation.
- 03. It can be applied to improve various types of lesions, including blackheads, milia, and syringomas.
- 04. Delicate treatment is possible even on sensitive areas like around the eyes and mouth.
- 05. Personalized treatment is performed by adjusting output based on the skin area, condition, and lesion type.
- 06. We prioritize hygiene by using individually sterilized tips.
Cases Where Agnes Treatment May Be Considered
- 01. Skin with frequent or recurring acne
- 02. If you have difficulty taking medications like isotretinoin or are concerned about side effects
- 03. If you have concerns about enlarged pores due to blackheads or excessive sebum
- 04. If multiple small lesions like milia or syringomas are observed
Agnes Treatment Procedure
- STEP 01. 1:1 Consultation with Medical Staff
- STEP 02. Cleansing
- STEP 03. Anesthetic Cream Application
- STEP 04. Agnes Treatment Execution
- Step 5: Skin soothing with Jaungo Modeling Pack
Post-Procedure Precautions
- Redness and swelling typically subside within 6 hours after the procedure. However, depending on individual skin conditions, these symptoms may persist for one to two days.
- Occasionally, tiny scabs may form on the treated area. In such cases, please do not pick at them; it is best to let them fall off naturally.
- For about a week after the procedure, please avoid jjimjilbangs (Korean bathhouses), saunas, swimming, and water activities. It is also advisable to refrain from smoking and alcohol consumption.
- When engaging in outdoor activities, it is important to apply sunscreen thoroughly every 3-4 hours. Please consistently use moisturizing products and drink plenty of water to maintain your skin.
- Occasionally, after the procedure, temporary reactions such as skin troubles, itching, or redness may occur depending on your skin condition. If discomfort persists or any concerning symptoms arise, please contact the clinic at any time.

Q&A
Answers to the questions we hear most.
How is Agnes procedure performed?
Agnes is a procedure that uses a high-frequency insulated needle (RF insulated needle). Through this microscopic needle, high-frequency energy is directly delivered to the sebaceous glands or lesion areas that are the root cause of acne. The delivered high-frequency energy locally generates heat of 60-70 degrees due to surrounding tissue resistance, and this heat coagulates sebaceous glands or fat cells, gradually reducing their function. This is not merely a temporary suppression of sebum secretion but a method of addressing problematic sebaceous glands, which can be helpful for managing recurrent acne.
What is the recommended interval for receiving the procedure?
Generally, we recommend receiving it about 3 times at intervals of 3 to 4 weeks, considering your individual skin condition.
Cautions
Results = Treatment × Aftercare. Please follow the notes below.
Immediately after the procedure, you may feel heat and temporary dryness on your skin, so it is recommended to pay attention to moisturizing.
For about a week after the procedure, it is recommended to avoid alcohol, smoking, saunas, and strenuous exercise that causes a lot of sweating.
You should avoid rubbing or excessively stimulating the treated area with your hands.
