Who this is for
- Those concerned about enlarged pores
- Those whose pores look prominent because of heavy sebum production
- Those concerned about acne scars or skin texture as well as pores
How it is done
The clinic lists skin aging, waste and sebum trapped in pores, and excessive sebum production as reasons pores enlarge. It explains that Secret laser proceeds by (1) placing the tip against the skin, (2) microneedles penetrating the skin, (3) delivering RF energy at the target depth and (4) inducing collagen and elastin production, describing it as delivering RF to the dermis while reducing irritation to the epidermis.
Recovery timeline
The website does not list a recovery period. Redness and fine needle marks may remain after treatment; how long they take to settle varies by individual.
Risks and side effects
- Redness, swelling, warmth and fine needle marks or crusting may occur in the treated area.
- There may be pain during the procedure, and its degree varies by individual.
- Rarely, hyperpigmentation, infection or burns may occur.
- Results, recovery speed and the number of sessions needed vary with skin condition, and suitability is decided at consultation and examination.
Results and recovery vary by individual. Possible complications are explained during consultation.
