Agnes in Dongseong-ro, Daegu

Insulated-needle radiofrequency that treats acne at the oil gland, for breakouts that keep returning in the same places.

Quick answer: At JRYN Clinic Daegu, Agnes is used for persistent acne and acne scarring. Fine insulated needles release radiofrequency only at their tips, aiming at over-active oil glands while sparing the surface. It is usually planned as a full-face session, followed by a few days of redness and pinpoint marks.

What is Agnes?

Agnes is a Korean radiofrequency (RF) device whose needles are coated along the shaft and exposed only at the tip. Because energy leaves the tip alone, the doctor can treat a chosen depth, such as the level of the oil glands, with little effect on the skin above. JRYN Daegu lists it among its acne and breakout lasers.

How it works

After numbing, the doctor guides the needles into areas of active or recurring acne and delivers short RF pulses at the depth of the sebaceous glands. Gently heating these glands is intended to reduce oil output and breakouts in the treated zone over the following weeks. The device can also be used for scar texture and fine lines around the eyes, and the clinic’s list pairs an Agnes acne mode with its Apple Laser. For active breakouts, see acne treatment.

FAQ

Agnes questions

How is Agnes different from a regular acne laser?

Most acne lasers work from the skin surface. Agnes places RF energy at the oil gland itself through insulated needles, so it targets one of the sources of breakouts.

Does Agnes hurt?

Numbing cream is applied first. Most people feel a brief sting or warmth with each pulse.

Will my acne stay away after Agnes?

It aims for longer-lasting control in the treated areas, but hormones, skincare and lifestyle still play a part, so results vary.

Can I book Agnes in English?

Yes. Message JRYN Clinic Daegu on WhatsApp (+82-10-5573-7574) with your concern, photos and travel dates. The team replies with suitable options, and the doctor confirms the plan at a 1:1 consultation.

How much does Agnes cost at JRYN Daegu?

The price depends on the treatment area (usually the full face) and the number of sessions. It is quoted in Korean won and confirmed with you before treatment. Ask on WhatsApp for today's price and any current offer. See how pricing works.
