Types of Rejuran and Effective Use of Hyaluronic Acid

Differences Between Rejuran and Hyaluronic Acid

Ingredients and Effects of Rejuran

Rejuran’s main ingredient is polynucleotides (PN).
Polynucleotides promote the skin’s natural healing process, leading to skin regeneration.
This regeneration process stimulates collagen, elastin, and skin structure, resulting in anti-aging effects.
Unlike hyaluronic acid, Rejuran does not add volume, for better or worse.

Characteristics and Effects of Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is an injectable filler that adds volume.
It comes in various densities, allowing for precise injection into different areas and layers of the skin.
If complications arise, hyaluronidase, a dissolving enzyme, enables easy correction.

Combined Effects of Rejuran and Hyaluronic Acid

Rejuran improves skin texture.
Hyaluronic acid restores lost volume.
Aging affects the face in three main ways:

Sagging
Volume loss
Skin quality deterioration
Hyaluronic acid is the best choice for addressing volume loss.
Rejuran is a suitable option for improving skin quality.

Types of Rejuran and Their Effects

Rejuran i (for the Eyes)

Contains 1% polynucleotides.
Has a thin, fluid-like consistency, resulting in minimal downtime.
Suitable for injection into the delicate skin around the eyes.

Effects of Other Salmon-Derived Treatments

Other salmon-based skin boosters include Pluryal, Lizne, and others.
After the original Rejuran patent expired, many similar products emerged.
Our clinic prefers Rejuran due to its long-standing track record, abundant clinical data, and cost-effectiveness.

Unique Components of Rejuran

Other treatments that stimulate skin repair include thread lifts (shopping threads), but these often require longer recovery times.
Polynucleotide-based treatments like Rejuran have shorter downtime, making them a more convenient option.

Effective Use of Hyaluronic Acid

Injection Sites for Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid can be injected into various areas, as long as there is a hollow or volume deficiency.
With different levels of firmness, it allows for precise injections at different depths.

Combination with Botox

Botox relaxes muscles, reducing expression lines and preventing deep wrinkles from forming.
Used together, Botox and hyaluronic acid enhance anti-aging effects.

Best Timing for Hyaluronic Acid Treatment

Safe for all age groups, including the elderly.
In cases where surgery is too risky, such as for patients over 80, hyaluronic acid serves as a non-surgical rejuvenation option.
Those who cannot afford downtime can still undergo hyaluronic acid injections with ease.
Having hyaluronic acid as a treatment option is beneficial for long-term anti-aging care.
