Pore size is driven by 3 factors (excess oil, lost collagen, and sun damage), so pore-refining plans layer several tools across roughly 3 to 4 sessions.
Large pores treatment in Gangnam, Seoul, Korea refines pore appearance by targeting the 3 causes of dilated pores: excess sebum, weakened collagen around the follicle, and sun damage. At our Gangnam (Seoul) location, Dr. Yoongon Ryu combines pore-refining lasers, RF microneedling, and skin boosters over a short series to tighten and smooth skin.

Large pores treatment is a doctor-led plan that reduces the visible size of enlarged facial pores by addressing why they widen in the first place. Pores look larger for three main reasons: overactive sebaceous glands that stretch the follicle opening, a loss of supporting collagen and elastin around the pore, and sun-related skin ageing that slackens the surrounding skin. Because these causes overlap, pore refining works best as a combined, gradual approach rather than a single quick fix.
At Reberry Clinic, pore care is part of our broader medical skin-care programme. The clinic’s doctors assess your pore type, oil level, and skin texture, then build a plan that may combine laser toning to control sebum, RF microneedling to rebuild dermal collagen, and skin boosters or medical skincare to improve overall skin quality. Results build across a series, typically spaced a few weeks apart, so the skin is refined steadily and safely.
International patients are supported in English across our Seoul locations, with pore treatment offered at our Gangnam (Seoul) location under Dr. Yoongon Ryu. Gangnam is roughly 2 minutes from Gangnam Station exit 10, making it easy to reach for visitors staying anywhere in Seoul.
Pore-refining plans use several complementary tools because no single device fixes all three causes of enlarged pores. Laser toning with a 1064-nm Nd:YAG or a picosecond laser reduces sebaceous activity and stimulates new collagen around the follicle, which is why studies report roughly a 30% reduction in pore size after 3 sessions in Asian skin. RF microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy through fine needles into the dermis, tightening the tissue that supports each pore and improving overall texture. Skin boosters and medical skincare then improve hydration, oil balance, and barrier quality so the refined result holds. The clinic’s doctors match the exact combination to your skin: oilier skin leans on sebum control, while pores linked to laxity and ageing lean on collagen-building energy. Because collagen remodels gradually, the visible pore-tightening effect continues to develop for weeks after each session, which is why pore care is planned as a short course rather than a one-off visit.

ONE REBERRY CLINIC · MFDS-REGISTERED DEVICES · MULTILINGUAL CARE AT EVERY LOCATION
Doctors evaluate your pores across the 3 causes (excess oil, collagen loss, sun damage) and grade skin texture to choose the right tools.
Laser toning with a 1064-nm Nd:YAG or picosecond laser calms overactive oil glands, a key driver behind widened follicle openings.
RF microneedling delivers heat 1 to 2 mm into the dermis to firm the tissue around each pore and refine texture.
Skin boosters or medical skincare improve hydration and barrier balance so refined pores stay less visible between the 3 to 4 sessions.
Progress is reviewed across roughly 3 to 4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart, then occasional maintenance keeps oil and texture in check.
See representative outcomes from Reberry Clinic. Results build gradually and vary by individual; your plan is assessed at consultation.
At our Gangnam (Seoul) location, Dr. Yoongon Ryu assesses your pore type, oil level, and texture, then explains which tools your plan combines, in English.
A single pore-refining session usually takes about 20 to 40 minutes depending on whether laser, RF microneedling, or a booster is used.
Pore care runs as a course of roughly 3 to 4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart, so the plan is mapped across the series.
Oil control appears within a couple of weeks, while collagen-based firming and pore refinement continue to build for several weeks after each session.
Because pores respond to oil and ageing, daily sunscreen, gentle skincare, and occasional maintenance help sustain a refined look over time.
There is no single fix; the most effective approach combines tools that target the 3 causes of enlarged pores, oil, collagen loss, and sun damage. At our Gangnam location, Dr. Yoongon Ryu builds a plan from laser toning, RF microneedling, and boosters. See our skin care overview to start.
Pore size can be visibly refined but not permanently erased, because pores widen from oil, lost collagen, and ageing. Studies show around a 30% reduction in pore size after 3 laser sessions in Asian skin. Treatment reduces oil and rebuilds collagen so pores look tighter, and maintenance keeps them refined.
Often both. Younger, oilier skin usually has sebum-driven pores that respond well to laser toning, while pores that appear with age relate to collagen loss and laxity, which suit RF microneedling. A consultation grades your pore type so the plan targets the actual driver rather than guessing.
Yes, laser toning with a 1064-nm Nd:YAG or picosecond laser reduces excess sebum and stimulates collagen around the follicle, which studies link to meaningful pore-size reduction over a series. It also improves tone and glow. It is often combined with RF microneedling for pores driven by both oil and laxity.
RF microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy through fine needles 1 to 2 mm into the dermis, heating the tissue that supports each pore so it tightens and smooths. One cohort saw a 6-grade pore score fall from 3.55 to 2.59 after 3 sessions. It also improves texture and early scarring alongside pores.
Most pore plans run over roughly 3 to 4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart, because collagen remodels gradually. The exact number depends on your oil level, pore severity, and how your skin responds. Your doctor reviews progress between visits and adjusts the plan and session count accordingly.
Comfort is well managed; laser toning feels like mild warmth, while RF microneedling uses numbing cream first. Downtime is usually minimal, with brief redness that settles within a day or two. Most international patients continue normal activities, and your doctor explains recovery for each tool beforehand.
Yes, boosters improve hydration, oil balance, and overall skin quality, which makes pores look less prominent even though they do not shrink the pore directly. They pair well with laser and RF for a smoother finish. Explore related options on our Rejuran Healer page.
Oil control often appears within a couple of weeks, while collagen-driven firming and pore refinement build over several weeks after each session. Because results are gradual, the fullest improvement usually shows after completing the series. Your doctor tracks progress so the plan stays matched to your skin’s response.
Results can hold well, but pores are influenced by oil and sun exposure, so they are managed rather than fixed once and forgotten. Daily sunscreen, a consistent skincare routine, and occasional maintenance sessions help sustain a refined look. Your doctor advises a realistic maintenance rhythm at consultation.
Yes, pore refinement works best inside a broader medical skincare plan that controls oil and protects the barrier. A tailored skin care routine supports in-clinic sessions between visits. Your doctor recommends products that complement, not duplicate, your treatment plan for steadier results.
Often yes, because reducing sebum and refining pores also lessens the clogging that leads to blackheads and shine. A deep-cleansing hydrafacial and laser toning target oil directly. If breakouts are prominent, your doctor may fold in dedicated acne care so pores and oil are addressed together.
Most adults with enlarged, oil-driven, or age-related pores are suitable for a pore-refining plan. A consultation grades your pore type and skin, then confirms which tools fit safely. Very reactive or recently sun-exposed skin may need a gentler start, which your doctor will plan carefully at the first visit.
Yes, skin tone guides laser choice and settings, since deeper tones need more conservative parameters to avoid pigment changes. The clinic’s doctors adjust the plan so refinement stays both safe and effective for your skin. This assessment is done at consultation before any device is used on your face.
Pore treatment is offered at our Gangnam (Seoul) location with Dr. Yoongon Ryu, about 2 minutes from Gangnam Station exit 10. Reberry Clinic also has Myeongdong and Incheon Airport locations for related care. See the skin care page and our team helps you choose.
For a first session, 2 to 3 days is comfortable, allowing a consultation, treatment, and a short review. Because pore care runs as a course, many international patients begin in Seoul and continue on return trips. Our English-speaking team helps coordinate timing around your travel plans.
Yes, flying within a day or so is generally fine, as pore-refining treatments are non-invasive to minimally invasive. Cabin air is drying, so moisturise and protect treated skin from sun. If you had RF microneedling, your doctor gives simple aftercare to follow while you travel.
International patients can complete a pore course across one or more visits, and the clinic offers remote check-ins in English between trips so progress stays on track. You can continue supportive skin care at home, and your treatment notes are kept on file for continuity.
