Before your consultation
- What does the recent safety notice say?
- Should I choose the needle depth myself?
- Should a combined product have separate supporting evidence?
General information, not a personal diagnosis or treatment plan. Suitability, risks and recovery require an individual consultation.
What does the recent safety notice say?
In 2025, the FDA announced reports of serious complications, including burns, scarring, fat loss, and nerve damage, associated with the use of some high-frequency microneedles. It does not refer to the incidence rate of a specific clinic or POTENZA as a whole. This is the basis for verifying the experience of the operator, the actual scope of use of the equipment, and the description of risks.

Should I choose the needle depth myself?
Depth should be selected with regard to skin thickness, location and tip characteristics, not copied from someone else’s review. Ask why the proposed plan fits that area rather than memorizing a number. Disclose low cheek volume or hollowing after an earlier procedure.
Should a combined product have separate supporting evidence?
The rationale for microneedling equipment and applied or injected ingredients must be viewed separately. Don't assume that all combinations are verified based on the package name alone. It would be good to receive an explanation of which ingredients are used, by which route, and what the expected benefits and limitations of the combination are.
Does enduring more pain mean a better result?
Pain is not a guarantee of effectiveness. You must report any discomfort during the procedure to determine whether adjustments are necessary. It is a good idea to check in advance the anesthesia plan and how to request discontinuation, and not to endure strange feelings because you think that higher intensity is not worth the cost.
Which changes should I report promptly?
Report any pain that gets worse, skin changes that look like blisters or burns, or new sensations or movement abnormalities. Don't judge from just the photo whether it's just redness or not. It is a priority to evaluate the current condition and record progress before covering it with additional management procedures.
What should the Dongseong-ro consultation explain?
If you book POTENZA in Daegu Dongseong-ro, ask for practical applicator tips, application treatment area, recovery guidance and contact information. The official list is for confirmation of treatment list offerings. When comparing multiple packages in Daegu City, please also compare the detailed composition including application ingredients and risk information.
