INKO Seoul Ampule No. 07
Niacinamide &
Pore
Control
A balancing pore-control ampule designed to support pore minimizing and tightening, skin texture refinement, hydration balance, smoother skin, and a clearer-looking complexion.
A balancing ampule for visible pores, uneven texture, and oil-water imbalance.
Niacinamide is a water-soluble form of Vitamin B3 widely used in skin care for barrier care, tone balance, and oil-prone skin support. This ampule introduces a pore-control care concept for skin that appears visibly congested, uneven in texture, or less balanced due to excess sebum and surface buildup. Niacinamide is vitamin B3 support for barrier comfort, hydration balance, shine control, and smoother-looking pores.
Visible pore support
Helps frame the treatment around pores that look enlarged because of excess shine, uneven surface texture, congestion-prone areas, or loss of skin smoothness. Helps pores look smoother, cleaner, and less noticeable.
Oil-water balance
Supports a more balanced skin finish, especially for clients who feel oily on the surface but still experience dehydration, tightness, or dullness underneath. Helps oily yet dehydrated skin feel more balanced.
Refined skin texture
Best presented as a texture-refining and balancing ampule for a smoother, cleaner, less shiny complexion without making harsh acne-treatment claims. Supports a smoother, cleaner-looking complexion.
A barrier‑led pore‑control pathway.
Niacinamide supports pore-prone skin by working through oil-water balance, barrier strength, visible shine control, and smoother surface refinement. Oil-water balance, barrier strength, shine control, and smoother-looking pores.
Oil, texture, and weak barrier
Pores look more visible when excess sebum, dehydration, rough surface buildup, and barrier stress make the skin appear shiny, uneven, or stretched.
Balanced, clearer-looking skin
Niacinamide supports a healthier skin barrier and a more balanced oil-water environment, helping pores look less obvious without stripping the skin.
Sebum-balance logic
Niacinamide helps support healthier sebocyte activity, the skin cells involved in oil production. By helping regulate excess surface oil, it reduces the shiny, greasy buildup.
Barrier-strength logic
Niacinamide supports barrier lipids such as ceramides, which help the skin hold moisture and reduce water loss. When the barrier is stronger, skin feels less stressed, and less dehydrated.
Pore-visibility logic
Pores become more noticeable when oil buildup and uneven shedding stretch the pore lining, while dehydration makes the surrounding texture look rougher. Niacinamide supports oil balance and barrier hydration, helping pores look less enlarged, less shiny, and more refined.
Clear-surface logic
By supporting balance and comfort, the skin surface reflects light more evenly, making texture look smoother and the complexion look cleaner.
Why it suits pore concerns
Pore care is not only about drying oil. Skin also needs hydration, barrier comfort, and surface balance so pores appear less emphasized.
Balanced skin, not dry skin
Pore care works best when oil control is paired with barrier comfort. Niacinamide helps support this balance, leaving the skin clearer-looking without the dry, over-treated feeling.
In short: Niacinamide is good for visible pores because it supports sebum balance, barrier strength, hydration comfort, and smoother surface texture without stripping the skin.
Recommended for enlarged-looking pores, uneven texture, excess shine, and hydration imbalance.
This ampule is ideal when the goal to create a smooth, balanced-looking surface with pore refinement, controlled shine, and better skin comfort.
Niacinamide Ingredient Research
Sebum balance, barrier support, hydration, texture, and visible pore refinement Sebum balance, barrier support, and smoother textureNiacinamide and facial sebum balance
This study evaluated topical 2% niacinamide and reported improvement in facial sebum-related measures. This supports careful wording around sebum balance, reduced shine, and a less oily-looking skin finish. Topical 2% niacinamide was linked with improved facial sebum balance.

This study reported that topical niacinamide increased stratum corneum ceramide and free fatty acid levels and reduced transepidermal water loss in dry skin. For this ampule, it supports hydration balance, barrier comfort, and a smoother-looking surface. Topical niacinamide supported skin barrier lipids and reduced moisture loss.

A clearer way to help active ampoules reach the skin.
Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels on the skin surface. This helps selected ampoules absorb more effectively while encouraging the skin’s natural renewal response — useful when the goal is refined texture, pores, glow, and early-aging support.
Creates micro-channels
Creates tiny pathways on the skin’s surface, helping prepare the skin for more focused ampoule absorption.
Guides ampoule delivery
Allows the selected ampoule to reach the skin more effectively, targeting areas that need extra support.
Supports visible renewal
Encourages the skin’s natural renewal response, helping texture look smoother, fuller, and more refined over time.
Choose the right delivery method for your skin
Niacinamide can be applied through two INKO delivery methods: Microcurrent for gentle, non-invasive infusion, or microneedling for more targeted ingredient delivery and visible skin-renewal support. Explore the treatment options or contact us, and we will guide you to the best method for your skin.
