Regenerate Skin with Rejuran Polynucleotides
What is a Rejuran? Rejuran is a type of polynucleotide that repairs skin and optimises it’s biological function. Sourced from salmon DNA, Rejuran is injected into the skin, delivers precursors of cellular regeneration and encouraging more efficient cellular renewal. This enhances fibroblasts prolioferation, increasing hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin production, reducing inflammation and redness and improving the barrier function of skin.
Rejuran has different formulations suitable for the eye region and scars- areas that are difficult to address safely with other products. One of the Rejuran does not alter your face or fill the tissue, instead it works to enhance the biological function of skin cells. The results are a subtle improvement in skin glow, texture and firmness, without puffiness or the risks of filling agents.
Patient Selection: This type of treatment is suited to patients wanting healthier, brighter skin, and improvements in skin quality with a natural result and limited downtime. As with all medicine, it is much easier to prevent issues. Rejuran is unlikely to reverse signs of significant aging such as deep lines, wrinkles and volume loss. The messgae is- start eary e.g when you first start to notice to keep your skin healthy.
What is the Recommended Treatment Plan? We recommend a course of 3 treatments with intervals of 2-3 weeks between sessions, followed by a treatment every 6-12 months for maintenance.
What can I expect on the day of treatment? Please arrive 30 minutes before your appointment wiht makeup free skin so we can apply a strong topical anaesthteic to the treatment are. While there may be some initial slight swelling or papules on the treated area immediately after the treatment – this will subside within 24-48 hours, and you can go about your day activities as usual.
What is the aftercare? In Avoid excessive heat such as long , hot showers, saunas and exercising un til the local swelling has subsided. Refrain from active skin care and massage or rubbing to the treatment area until the skin has settled back to normal. You may apply a cool compress to the area.
Are there any side effects or possible risks? As with all injectable treatments, brusing should be expected, especially around the eye region. Rejuran is composed of highly bio-compatible DNA fragments very similar to those found in our body. For this reason, it has a favourable risk profile and has not been associated with vascular or inflammatory events.
Multimodality Treatments: Rejuran works well with heat based modalities that improve skin quality and pigmentation such as peels, laser, Tixel or Ultraformer for more potent collagen stimulation. Both services can be done in the same session
