Rejuran S in Gwonseon-gu: The Misconception That Scars Fill In Right Away

Rejuran S is not a treatment that fills in a scar on the day of injection, it's an injectable given in multiple sessions spaced a few weeks apart to support the skin's regeneration process in depressed scar areas. If you're looking into Rejuran S in Gwonseon-gu, first understand that change appears gradually over several sessions, and the degree varies depending on the scar's shape and depth.

• The treatment interval is about two to four weeks, and it's typically planned around three to four sessions.
• The raised mark that appears right after injection usually settles within a few hours to a few days.
• Depending on the scar's shape and depth, it may also be planned together with laser treatment.

Does one session fill in the scar?

Rejuran S is an injectable whose main ingredient is polynucleotide (PN), a substance derived from salmon. It has a high viscosity and doesn't spread easily, so it's designed to stay in place at the scar site for a long time.

Because the regeneration process in the skin beneath a scar takes time, it's hard to say the scar fills in right after a single session. It's typically planned around three to four sessions spaced roughly two to four weeks apart, after which maintenance care is discussed based on your skin condition.

The degree and speed of change vary from person to person depending on the scar's depth, shape, when it formed, and skin thickness. Whether to proceed with treatment and how many sessions is decided through a medical examination and consultation.

Is it used the same way for every scar?

Depending on their shape, acne scars fall into categories such as narrow, deep scars that look like they were punched with an awl, round and gently depressed scars, and scars with sharply angled edges. Because the depth and area the injection needs to reach differ by shape, they aren't all handled the same way.

Depending on the scar's depth and extent, treatment may be planned with Rejuran S alone, or in a sequence with a laser like Fraxel or needle RF treatment. Which combination is right is decided during the consultation after examining the scar directly.

If it's a raised scar or a red mark rather than a depressed scar, a different approach to care may be needed. That's why the consultation first checks what type your scar is.

Is the raised mark that appears after injection an abnormal reaction?

Because Rejuran S has a high viscosity, a small raised mark can form at the injection site. This is a reaction seen as the injected substance settles into place, and it usually subsides within a few hours at the earliest, or a few days at the latest.

That said, you should also know about other reactions and side effects that can occur after treatment. Effects and reactions vary from person to person.

• Redness, swelling, and mild pain may occur at the injection site.
• Bruising may occur and last anywhere from a few days to one to two weeks.
• Rarely, a firm palpable lump, inflammation, or infection may occur.
• Rarely, an allergic reaction to the ingredients may occur.

If the raised mark hasn't settled after several days, or if it becomes red, hot, and painful, please contact the clinic to get it checked. If warmth and pain occur together, it could be inflammation, so it's best to get it checked early.

Can I go about my day as usual starting the day of injection?

Rejuran S treatment takes about 15 to 30 minutes, and most daily activities are possible afterward. That said, please be careful about a few things for a few days until the injection sites recover.

• On the day of treatment, don't rub or massage the injection sites.
• Rest from saunas, steam rooms, intense exercise, and alcohol for a few days.
• Makeup is often started lightly from the day after the injection sites have healed.
• Schedule your next session according to the interval you were advised.

If you try to press and flatten a raised injection site with your hand, it can cause bruising or inflammation. Leave it alone and let time pass.

Until your next session, keep track of whether the injection site healed well and how many days any bruising lasted. This is used as a reference when deciding the injection area for your next session.

What to check in Gwonseon-gu before your first session

Before your Rejuran S consultation in Gwonseon-gu, checking the items below makes it easier to put together a plan suited to your scar. Even briefly describing how the scar formed helps us judge what type it is.

• When the scar formed, and whether acne is still breaking out now
• Whether you've had an allergy to fish or salmon-derived ingredients
• Whether you're taking a blood-thinning medication such as aspirin
• Any recent laser treatments, fillers, or other injectable procedures
• Any important events scheduled within a few days after the treatment

If it's a period when inflammatory acne is still breaking out a lot, scar care sometimes begins only after the inflammation has been calmed first. In this case, when to start scar care is decided together during the consultation.

FAQ

Q. What should I do if acne breaks out again on the scar area?

A. In most cases, an inflamed spot is calmed down before injecting. If new acne appears between sessions, please show it to us at your next visit.

Q. Can it be used on old scars, too?

A. Old scars can also be examined during the consultation. However, the degree of change can vary depending on the scar's depth and firmness, so the plan is decided after an examination.

Q. Do I have to get all three to four sessions?

A. It's usually planned around three to four sessions, but the number can be adjusted by checking the scar's condition at each session. Feel free to ask any questions along the way.

Q. How do I cover up a bruise?

A. Bruising usually fades over time, and once the injection site has healed, light makeup can cover it. If you have an important occasion coming up, please schedule your treatment date with at least a week of buffer.

Q. Can scar care be completed with Rejuran S alone?

A. Depending on the type and depth of the scar, treatment may be planned with Rejuran S alone, or together with laser. Which approach is right is decided during the consultation after an examination.
