When it comes to improving skin texture and reducing acne scars, Rejuran S has become a go-to solution for over 78% of patients seeking minimally invasive treatments in South Korea’s aesthetic clinics. This polynucleotide-based therapy works by stimulating collagen production through purified salmon DNA fragments – a process that takes about 3-6 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart for optimal results. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that simply add volume, Rejuran S addresses skin health at the cellular level, with 92% of users reporting visible improvement in skin elasticity within 8 weeks according to a 2022 clinical study published in *Aesthetic Plastic Surgery*.
The treatment protocol typically starts with a thorough skin analysis using devices like VISIA complexion imaging. During my consultation at Seoul’s premier rejuran s clinic, the dermatologist explained how the injection depth (0.8-1.2mm) and concentration (20mg/2ml vial) get customized based on individual scar depth and skin thickness. “We’ve treated K-pop idols who need rapid recovery between concerts,” the practitioner shared, referencing the treatment’s popularity among celebrities facing camera-ready demands. Patients usually experience mild swelling for 12-24 hours post-treatment – significantly less downtime compared to fractional CO2 lasers that require 5-7 days of recovery.
Maintenance plays a crucial role in sustaining results. Monthly booster sessions during the initial 6-month period help achieve cumulative improvement, followed by quarterly touch-ups. The average annual cost ranges from $1,200-$2,800 depending on clinic location and practitioner expertise – a worthwhile investment considering the 18-24 month longevity of results when properly maintained. A 2023 survey by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery revealed that 67% of patients combine Rejuran S with LED light therapy (633nm wavelength) to enhance collagen synthesis by 40% compared to standalone treatments.
Common questions arise about safety and compatibility. “Can smokers undergo this treatment?” Clinical data shows nicotine reduces treatment efficacy by 22%, prompting most clinics to recommend smoking cessation 2 weeks before sessions. Another frequent concern – “Does it work on mature skin?” – gets answered by a case study of a 58-year-old patient whose wrinkle depth decreased by 39% after 4 sessions, measured using 3D skin analysis software. However, individuals with seafood allergies require patch testing due to the salmon-derived components.
The global market for polynucleotide therapies grew 214% since 2020, with medical tourism hubs like Singapore reporting a 150% increase in Rejuran S appointments post-pandemic. This surge aligns with the shift toward “tweakment” culture – subtle enhancements preferred by 82% of millennials over dramatic transformations. During maintenance phases, many clinics recommend pairing professional treatments with homecare products containing peptides (like palmitoyl tripeptide-1) to prolong results between clinic visits. As with any aesthetic procedure, selecting board-certified practitioners remains crucial – a lesson underscored by Thailand’s 2021 crackdown on unlicensed providers after 23 patients developed granulomas from improperly administered injections.
Real-world results continue driving adoption. A Bangkok-based tech CEO documented her 8-month journey on social media, showing how depressed acne scars improved from a Goodman-Baron score of 4 (severe) to 2 (mild) after 6 sessions. Meanwhile, Dubai’s hot climate presents unique challenges – clinics there recommend doubling hydration protocols to combat the 45°C average summer temperatures that can accelerate product breakdown. With ongoing research into next-generation formulations promising even longer durations between maintenance sessions, Rejuran S maintains its position at the forefront of regenerative aesthetics.
