My butterfly zone has orange peel-like pores. Does anyone know the characteristics of Potenza well?

Due to a bad habit from my school days of aggressively squeezing acne with my hands, the pores on my nose and butterfly zone have become wide open, making me hesitate every time I apply makeup...😤 Even if I apply a thick layer of primer, sweating accentuates my uneven skin texture and makes my face look messy, so I am seriously considering the Potenza treatment, often called a "pore eraser." I’ve heard it’s amazing for improving skin texture and treating scars because it delivers high-frequency energy densely using micro-needles, but I’m not sure what the distinct features of Potenza are that clearly differentiate it from a standard Fraxel laser, so I am leaving this inquiry. Am I worried about side effects like skin sensitivity or breakouts due to the needle irritation? I’ve heard it’s unbearably painful; is the mechanism or effectiveness of Potenza's pore-tightening really worth enduring the pain? I would appreciate some real tips from those who have experienced it!
