Sreborn Skin Clinic Hongdae

Looking for LEGATO II treatment in Seoul? Sreborn Skin Clinic Hongdae provides personalized fractional radiofrequency treatment for acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven texture, fine lines, stretch marks, and selected surgical or traumatic scars. LEGATO II combines fractional ablative microplasma RF with IMPACT ultrasound technology in a staged skin-remodeling procedure.

What Is LEGATO II?

LEGATO II is an energy-based skin-treatment platform associated with two main technologies:

• Fractional ablative microplasma radiofrequency
• Acoustic-pressure ultrasound through the IMPACT module

The RF stage creates controlled microscopic treatment channels and thermal zones. A compatible topical solution may then be applied and treated with ultrasound according to the clinic’s protocol.

LEGATO II may be considered for:

• Depressed acne scars
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven skin texture
• Fine lines
• Selected stretch marks
• Surgical or traumatic scars
• Rough or damaged-looking skin
• Overall skin resurfacing

How Does LEGATO II Work?

LEGATO II treatment generally involves two stages.

Fractional Microplasma RF

The fractional RF handpiece creates microscopic treatment zones on the skin’s surface while delivering controlled thermal energy. This is intended to initiate a gradual remodeling response.

IMPACT Ultrasound

After the fractional stage, a compatible topical product may be applied. The IMPACT ultrasound handpiece uses acoustic pressure over the treated surface to support transepidermal product delivery.

The product must be sterile, appropriate for the intended route, and selected according to clinic protocol.

LEGATO II Is Not Conventional Microneedling

LEGATO II uses fractional microplasma RF applied through a surface treatment tip rather than inserting conventional microneedles into the skin.

The treatment experience, channel characteristics, energy delivery, and recovery therefore differ from Potenza or another RF microneedling device.

Professional Skin and Scar Assessment

Before recommending treatment, the clinic may evaluate:

• Acne-scar type and depth
• Pore size
• Skin thickness
• Skin tone and sensitivity
• Active acne
• History of pigmentation
• Scar location and maturity
• Stretch marks
• Previous lasers or RF treatments
• Tendency toward keloids
• Desired results and available downtime

Patients with active infection or severe inflammatory acne may need to postpone treatment.

LEGATO II for Acne Scars

LEGATO II may support gradual remodeling of selected depressed acne scars, including:

• Shallow boxcar scars
• Rolling scars
• Mixed atrophic scars
• Acne-related surface irregularities
• Enlarged scar-like pores

Deep ice-pick or tethered scars may require additional treatments such as:

• Subcision
• Targeted scar procedures
• RF microneedling
• Fractional laser resurfacing
• Skin boosters
• Combination scar treatment

Complete scar removal cannot be guaranteed.

LEGATO II for Enlarged Pores

Fractional RF treatment may improve texture and elasticity, making some pores appear less visible.

Pores associated with blackheads or excess oil may also require:

• Professional extraction
• Deep pore cleansing
• Sebum-control care
• Acne management
• Gentle exfoliation
• Personalized skincare

Pores cannot be permanently closed.

LEGATO II for Skin Texture

Controlled fractional treatment may be considered for:

• Rough skin
• Uneven surface texture
• Fine lines
• Mild sun-related texture changes
• Reduced firmness
• Selected superficial scars

The treatment intensity should reflect the patient’s skin type, sensitivity, and tolerance for downtime.

LEGATO II for Stretch Marks

Stretch marks form when the skin expands or contracts rapidly, disrupting collagen and elastic tissue.

LEGATO II may be considered for stretch marks on selected body areas, including the:

• Abdomen
• Thighs
• Hips
• Buttocks
• Upper arms
• Other suitable areas

Multiple sessions are generally required, and complete removal cannot be guaranteed.

LEGATO II for Surgical and Traumatic Scars

Selected surgical or traumatic scars may benefit from fractional remodeling. Suitability depends on:

• Scar age
• Scar thickness
• Color
• Location
• Whether it is raised or depressed
• Previous treatment
• Tendency toward abnormal scarring

Raised hypertrophic scars and keloids require a different treatment strategy and should not automatically receive aggressive resurfacing.

LEGATO II for Fine Lines

Fractional RF may support improvement in selected fine lines and crepey texture.

Expression wrinkles caused by muscle movement may respond more directly to Botox, while deeper folds or volume loss may require fillers or lifting procedures.

Topical Product Delivery with IMPACT Ultrasound

Following fractional treatment, the clinic may apply a compatible solution before using the IMPACT ultrasound module.

Patients should confirm:

• Product name and manufacturer
• Complete ingredient list
• Sterility
• Expiration date
• Intended application method
• Whether the product is suitable for treated skin
• Potential allergy risks

A cosmetic intended only for intact skin should not automatically be applied to open treatment channels.

LEGATO II with Rejuran or Skin Boosters

LEGATO II may sometimes be combined or staged with Rejuran, hyaluronic acid boosters, or other skin-quality products.

The clinic should clearly explain whether the product is:

• Injected separately
• Applied topically after treatment
• Used with the IMPACT ultrasound module
• Scheduled during another appointment

The delivery method and product suitability are important for safety.

LEGATO II with Exosome Skincare

An exosome-containing topical product may be applied following fractional treatment only when consistent with its intended use and clinic protocol.

Patients should verify the product source, manufacturer, ingredients, sterility, and labeled application route. A topical exosome product should not automatically be injected.

LEGATO II Versus Potenza

LEGATO II

• Uses fractional microplasma RF
• Creates surface microchannels and thermal zones
• May be followed by IMPACT ultrasound
• Commonly used for scars and resurfacing
• Does not use conventional microneedles

Potenza

• Uses needle-based RF microneedling
• Delivers RF energy at selected depths
• Offers multiple needle tips and modes
• May target scars, pores, and mild laxity
• Uses a different treatment and recovery profile

Neither device is universally better. Selection depends on scar type, skin tone, concern, and downtime.

LEGATO II Versus Fractional CO2 Laser

Both procedures create fractional treatment zones, but they use different energy:

• LEGATO II uses microplasma radiofrequency.
• Fractional CO2 uses ablative laser energy.
• CO2 treatment may provide stronger resurfacing in selected cases.
• LEGATO II may offer a different thermal profile and recovery period.
• Both can cause redness, crusting, pigment changes, or scarring.

The best option depends on scar depth, skin tone, previous treatments, and acceptable downtime.

What Happens During Treatment?

A typical appointment may include:

1. Skin and scar consultation
2. Cleansing and photography
3. Application of numbing cream
4. Selection of the fractional RF tip and settings
5. LEGATO II microplasma RF treatment
6. Application of a compatible topical solution
7. IMPACT ultrasound treatment, when planned
8. Calming care and aftercare instructions

Treatment time depends on the area, intensity, number of passes, and combination protocol.

Does LEGATO II Hurt?

Numbing cream is generally used, but patients may still experience:

• Heat
• Prickling
• Stinging
• Pressure
• Burning sensations
• Tenderness

Discomfort depends on treatment intensity, area, number of passes, and individual sensitivity.

Possible Side Effects and Downtime

Temporary effects may include:

• Redness
• Swelling
• Warmth
• Tenderness
• Pinpoint crusts
• Dryness
• Peeling
• Temporary roughness
• Grid-like treatment marks
• Temporary pigment darkening

Potential complications include:

• Burns
• Infection
• Prolonged inflammation
• Post-inflammatory pigmentation
• Loss of pigment
• Persistent track marks
• Scarring
• Keloid formation
• Allergic reactions to applied products

Proper settings, sterile supplies, and careful aftercare are essential.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

The recommended number depends on:

• Scar type and depth
• Pore severity
• Treatment area
• RF intensity
• Number of passes
• Skin tone
• Individual healing response
• Desired improvement

Scars and stretch marks generally require multiple sessions.

When Will Results Appear?

Early swelling may temporarily make the skin look smoother. Remodeling-related improvement generally develops over the following weeks and months.

Results vary, and complete removal of scars, pores, or stretch marks cannot be guaranteed.

Who May Not Be Suitable?

Additional assessment may be required for patients with:

• Pregnancy
• Active infection or cold sores
• Severe inflammatory acne
• Uncontrolled eczema or psoriasis
• Poor wound healing
• Keloid tendency
• Bleeding disorders
• Certain implanted electronic devices
