This product may be considered for patients with concerns such as uneven skin texture or visible changes related to ageing or environmental exposure. A consultation is required to assess skin condition, medical history, and suitability for treatment.
What is Rejuran?
Rejuran is a bio-regenerator that contains substances found in DNA, known as polynucleotides. These are used to support the skin’s natural repair functions. The product is used in specific areas by a qualified health practitioner, based on individual skin needs.
It may be considered by patients with skin changes caused by age, sun exposure, or stress on the skin. A consultation is needed to check if this treatment is suitable for each patient. The number of sessions and areas treated may vary depending on the condition of the skin.
How the Treatment Works
Rejuran works by delivering polynucleotides—molecules found in DNA—into the skin to support repair and regeneration. These polynucleotides are extracted from wild salmon DNA using DNA Optimising Technology (DOT), which helps preserve their long and stable structure. The slow-degrading gel stimulates the skin’s natural building cells, known as fibroblasts, which may support collagen production and skin firmness. This method may be considered for concerns such as changes in skin texture or quality related to ageing or environmental exposure.
The number of sessions may vary depending on the condition of the skin and the area being treated. Most patients will require a course of 3-4 treatments 2-4 weeks apart. The treatment plan is adjusted based on how the skin responds.
Who May Consider This Treatment?
This treatment may be considered by patients who have noticed changes in their skin over time, such as dryness, fine lines, or changes in skin texture. It may also be discussed as part of general skin care planning for patients seeking support in maintaining skin quality. However, the treatment is not suitable for everyone.
Whether the treatment is appropriate depends on factors such as skin type, medical background, and specific goals. During the consultation with Dr Anh at her Perth clinic, she will review these factors before making any recommendations.
This allows her to check the patient’s skin condition, review health history, and consider any previous treatments before deciding if this approach is suitable.
- Patients looking to address post-operative scars, Rejuran offers promising potential for improving their appearance and texture.
- Individuals opting out of fillers or toxins, seeking alternative solutions.
Common Treatment Areas
The treatment may be used on areas where the skin shows signs of ageing or visible changes linked to environmental factors. Common areas include the face, especially the cheeks and forehead, as well as around the eyes. The neck and hands may also be treated if there are changes related to age or long-term exposure to sunlight.
Each patient has different concerns, so the area to be treated is discussed during a consultation. The treatment plan depends on skin type, the condition of the skin in that area, and the patient’s goals. In some cases, more than one area may be treated over time.
What to Expect During the Procedure
The session typically begins with a review of the treatment plan and time to ask any final questions. The skin is cleaned, and the areas to be treated are prepared. Patients may be offered comfort options before starting, depending on the areas involved and personal preference.
During the procedure, patients may experience a light pricking or pressure feeling in the skin. This may vary based on skin sensitivity and the treatment area. After the session, staff will provide instructions on caring for the treated skin and explain what to expect in the following days.
Aftercare and Recovery
After the session, patients may notice redness, swelling, or small spots in the treated area. These effects are temporary and will resolve over the next few days, depending on the patient’s healing ability. To protect the treated area, patients are advised not to rub or press the skin.
Strenuous exercise, hot showers, or sauna use may be discouraged for a short period to help the skin settle. The clinic provides clear instructions after treatment, including what to expect and when to return for follow-up if needed. Any unusual or ongoing symptoms should be reported to ensure proper care is given.
Risks and Complications
As with any procedure performed on the skin, there are potential risks. These may include:
- Redness in the treated area
- Swelling or bruising
- Temporary sensitivity or discomfort
- Small raised areas or bumps at the application site
- Itching or dryness
- Infection
- Delayed healing
- Unintended skin discolouration
- Response that varies from patient to patient
These risks are discussed during the consultation, where the patient history and skin condition are reviewed. Patients are encouraged to report any symptoms that persist or cause concern following the treatment.
