Acne treatment
in Busan,
starting with the right problem.
“Acne treatment” can mean three very different things: treating active acne, fading post-acne marks, or improving acne scars and texture. Newline Clinic's current menu includes options such as Potenza, Fraxel, laser toning and CO2, but the treatment should match the actual problem rather than the keyword alone.
The first step is deciding whether you have active acne, marks or scars.
Active acne means ongoing breakouts or inflammation. Post-acne marks are color changes left after acne. Acne scars are textural changes such as depressions. These can overlap, but they are not the same problem and should not automatically receive the same laser or RF treatment.
Choose the path based on what you see now.
1. Active Acne
Ongoing inflammatory or clogged lesions should be assessed as active disease, not treated only as a scar or pigmentation problem.
2. Post-Acne Marks
Brown or red residual marks after acne may point toward pigment or vascular considerations rather than resurfacing alone.
3. Acne Scars
Depressed or uneven texture may lead to comparison of Potenza, Fraxel or other scar-focused approaches based on scar pattern.
Similar-looking problems can need different treatment goals.
Inflammatory lesions
Red, swollen or tender acne should be considered separately from residual scarring.
Clogged pores
Comedonal acne and enlarged pores can overlap visually but are not identical concerns.
Post-inflammatory pigment
Brown marks after acne may be more directly related to pigmentation than surface texture.
Depressed scars
Rolling, boxcar and ice-pick patterns can require different scar strategies or combinations.
Start with verified treatment prices.
Prices come from the supplied August 2026 international-patient material. The source list states VAT is excluded. These treatments are not interchangeable; final selection depends on whether the concern is active acne, pigment or scarring.
Use the concern page that matches your main problem.
Acne Scars
For depressed or uneven textural scars, compare Potenza, Fraxel and other scar-focused strategies.
Large Pores
Relevant when pore visibility and texture are more important than active inflammatory acne.
Post-Acne Pigmentation
Relevant when the main issue is residual brown discoloration rather than texture.
Skin Texture
Relevant when uneven surface quality is the primary concern after acne has settled.
Match the treatment to the acne-related problem.
| Treatment | Main category | When it may enter the discussion |
|---|---|---|
| Potenza | RF microneedling | Newline specifically lists N Tip for pores/acne; also relevant to selected texture and scar concerns. |
| Fraxel | Laser resurfacing | More aligned with selected acne scars and uneven texture than ongoing inflammatory acne. |
| Laser Toning | Pigment-focused laser | May enter the discussion when post-acne pigmentation is the main concern. |
| CO2 | Spot / resurfacing laser | Selected spot or resurfacing indications rather than a universal acne treatment. |
One clinic, multiple treatment categories.
Potenza specifically listed for pores/acne
The current menu explicitly identifies the N Tip option for pores/acne.
Scar & pigment options
Fraxel, toning and CO2 provide additional treatment categories when the concern is no longer active acne alone.
Concern-first structure
The website separates acne, acne scars, pores, pigmentation and texture to reduce cannibalization and improve treatment clarity.
International-patient support
The clinic information lists Korean, English, Japanese and Chinese consultation support.
Verified doctor portrait
Separate active acne
from marks and scars.
The correct treatment path depends on what is still active, what is pigment and what is permanent texture change.

active acne, marks or scars.
