What Is Potenza?

Potenza is a cutting-edge radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device designed to improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity. Unlike traditional microneedling, Potenza combines ultrafine needles with RF energy to penetrate deeper layers of the skin and stimulate collagen production more effectively. It’s a versatile treatment that addresses a wide range of concerns, from acne scars and fine lines to laxity and enlarged pores. At our Orange County medspa, we use Potenza to deliver personalized treatments that trigger your skin’s natural healing process—leaving you with a smoother, tighter, and more radiant complexion over time.

What Can Potenza Treat?

Potenza is safe for all skin types and tones, and is ideal for treating:

Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne scars and active acne
Enlarged pores
Uneven skin texture
Mild skin laxity
Stretch marks
Dull or aging skin

Because of its customizable needle depths and RF intensity, Potenza can be adjusted to treat both superficial and deeper concerns—all while minimizing risk and downtime.

How Does Potenza Work?

The treatment works by delivering radiofrequency energy through microneedles into the skin. The RF energy heats the underlying layers, triggering a wound-healing response that encourages the production of collagen and elastin. The result:

Firmer, tighter skin
Smoother texture
More refined pores
A youthful, refreshed glow

In addition to facial areas, Potenza can also be used on the neck, chest, and even body areas such as the abdomen or arms for crepey skin or stretch marks.

What to Expect During Treatment

Potenza treatments are performed in-office and typically take 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

Comfort: A topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort.
Sensation: You may feel a light prickling or heat sensation during the procedure.
Recovery: Mild redness and swelling are common and usually resolve within 2–3 days. Most patients can resume normal activities within 24 hours.

When Will You See Results?

Many patients begin to notice visible improvement in their skin’s tone and texture within 2 to 4 weeks after treatment. Collagen remodeling continues over the next several months, with full results appearing around 12 weeks post-treatment.

For best results, a series of 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart is typically recommended, depending on your skin goals.
