How do
REJURAN® WORK?
The growth factors in each REJURAN® Healer product are designed to stimulate the growth of new cells and ideal tissue restoration. REJURAN® Healer works to provide a lattice-type foundation on which skin cells can thrive so that there is greater and faster replication of healthy cell growth, coupled with noticeably reduced inflammation.
PN can help the skin by providing anti-inflammatory and wound healing mechanisms which in turn can stimulate the fibroblast inside the skin making the skin thicker and also producing collagen making it tighter.
REJURAN® treatment can be performed on its own or combined with other procedures for complete facial rejuvenation, such as:
→ PDO Thread Lift
→ ANTI Wrinkle Treatment
→ Dermal Fillers Injection
→ LED Light Therapy

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Rejuran treatment?
Rejuran is the brand name for a treatment that contains Polynucleotides, which are DNA fragments derived from salmon. These Polynucleotides promote skin regeneration, improve elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles when injected into the skin. Rejuran injections are often used as part of anti-ageing and skin rejuvenation procedures, especially for additional collagen stimulation in the upper layers of the skin.
Launched in Korea in 2014, Rejuran was exclusively used in Asian countries such as Korea and Singapore, before being approved in Australia in July 2023.
How does Rejuran work?
From our mid twenties to early thirties, we begin producing less collagen in our skin, leading to signs of ageing. The Polynucleotide in Rejuran stimulates fibroblasts within the skin, resulting in increased collagen production, therefore increasing skin thickness and enhancing skin tightness.
Polynucleotide is also advantageous for the skin by activating anti-inflammatory responses and promoting wound healing, and it promotes wound healing by stimulating the fibroblasts to produce more collagen.
How long do the results last?
Due to the natural ageing process, Rejuran results are not permanent. Results can vary from person to person, and factors such as individual skin characteristics, lifestyle, and the specific concerns being addressed can influence the longevity of the effects.
The collagen stimulation initiated by Rejuran tends to have a gradual and cumulative effect, with results becoming noticeable after a series of sessions.
Depending on the patient’s age, skin quality, and general health, a course of 3 treatments 2 to 3 weeks apart may be recommended. This is followed by a treatment every 6-12 months to maintain skin condition through continued collagen stimulation.
Is Rejuran the same as wrinkle-reducing treatments?
Rejuran and wrinkle-reducing treatments are two very different treatments. Rejuran stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and rejuvenate the skin.
Wrinkle reducing treatments do not stimulate collagen, instead they work to reduce dynamic lines.
How many Rejuran treatments will I need?
The number of Rejuran treatments needed can vary based on individual factors such as the specific skin concerns being addressed and the current health condition of the skin. Generally, Rejuran treatments are performed in a series of 3 sessions, spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart.
