[Hongdae Dermatology] Review of Rejuran Healer 4cc Injection, 0% Drug Loss

Hello. I usually get Rejuran Healer quite regularly.

 

My skin is thin and tends to be very dry from within, so I get Rejuran injections about once every three months for anti-aging, skin texture, and dryness.

 

 

What I realized while getting skin boosters or Rejuran at various hospitals was that just because genuine products are used does not mean the results or experiences are all the same.

 

Rejuran is usually administered via hand injection, isn't it?

It’s not that the injection itself is bad, but I heard that if it doesn’t penetrate the dermis accurately, the medication won’t be absorbed and there could be a loss, so that part kept bothering me.

 

There are many cases where 2cc is used for the butterfly zone and 4cc for the full face, but thinking about the small amount lost every time an injection is given, I felt like it was a waste for no reason.

 

So, I decided to visit a dermatology clinic in Hongdae because it is famous for having 0% drug loss.

 

The location was between Exit 8 and Exit 9 of Hongik University Station, and since it was about a one-minute walk, it wasn't difficult to find.

It is right inside the entrance of the Kakao Friends building, so I didn't think even first-time visitors would get lost.

 

The interior of the hospital had a warm tone and an overall cozy atmosphere.

The staff were also quite gentle in their service.

 

After checking in, I washed my face in the powder room, and seeing that there were two Dyson products, I was like, "Oh..."

I remember seeing this kind of equipment often in high-end dermatology clinics.

 

I had a consultation before the procedure, and they explained everything based on the skin measurement results.

 

It wasn't just a matter of taking measurements and stopping there; it was a method that specifically pointed out which areas would be best to focus on.

 

In my case, the sides of my nose, philtrum, and under my chin tend to have severe redness due to dryness, so I decided to get 4cc injected, focusing on the entire cheeks, sides of the nose, philtrum, and chin, excluding the forehead, rather than a full face treatment including the forehead.

 

I had already heard a lot about Rejuran being a painful procedure, and I also had a difficult time with the pain when I received it at another clinic in the past.

 

I don't really prefer sleep anesthesia because I feel groggy all day after sleeping for about 20 minutes, which interferes with my work.

 

Here, we first used a high-concentration lidocaine anesthetic cream, and then proceeded with nerve block as well.

I felt that the preparation was more thorough than when only cream anesthesia was used.

 

 

I was told that they use special needles, and that they are designed to target only the dermis layer because they are short, about 2mm in length.

They also said it is thinner than a regular needle.

 

I was told that the injection was performed using a PRESS device rather than a manual injection, and that it is a method that delivers at a constant pressure and quantity.

It felt like a short, steady injection, and to me, it felt like it ended with just a slight sting.

 

It wasn't completely painless, but it was bearable compared to when I got it before.

 

Before the procedure, the nurse opened the genuine Rejuran right in front of me to show it, and afterwards, the director disinfected the area and administered nerve block.
 

After about 3 minutes, the procedure began immediately.

 

Usually, I can't take photos in the middle of a procedure if I'm in pain, but this time I was able to take photos during the treatment.

It wasn't completely pain-free, but it was bearable.

 

I specifically mentioned that the sides of my nose, philtrum, corners of my mouth, and the area below my mouth were problem areas, so they performed the procedure on each of those twice more meticulously.

 

 

The total procedure time was about 20 minutes.

 

When I looked in the mirror right after, my face felt plump all over as the medication had entered, and I wondered if this appearance was the reason they explained it had been injected into the dermis layer.

 

Afterwards, I received post-treatment care using the LDM regeneration mode at a skin care clinic, and I did feel a slight discomfort as my skin temperature rose momentarily.

So they applied a lot of soothing gel.

You said that it is better to proceed with LDM slowly, and indeed, you tended to manage it very slowly.

 

There were red marks immediately after, but they seemed to subside faster than expected after LDM.

When I came out after changing clothes, my skin felt a bit glowing.

 

 

About 3 hours after the procedure, I took another photo at home, and the redness had almost disappeared, although if you looked closely, some of the microblading remained.

 

 

I applied the azulene ampoule and cream given to me by the hospital and went to sleep.

 

By the evening of the next day, the redness had mostly subsided, and the embossing was almost completely smoothed out.

 

When I got it done at another place before, the downtime was long, so I felt embarrassed when I had to put on makeup and go out for an appointment, but this time it felt relatively short.

 

I felt like a slight bruise had formed, so I dabbed the bruise cream you gave me onto my skin and went to sleep.

 

Around the third day after the procedure, I felt the bruising gradually decreasing, and I could see my skin becoming radiant.

 

When viewed up close, the skin texture felt more refined than before. I felt that the dryness around my nose was especially reduced.

 

As of day 7, I've heard people around me say a few times that my skin looks good.

 

The reaction was that my skin condition looked better rather than that I had lost weight. A feeling of the skin swelling up from within?

 

It had a glossy finish, and the texture seemed a bit smoother.

 

I have been getting Rejuran injections regularly, but the pain was always a burden. This time, even though it wasn't completely pain-free, I felt like I could continue receiving them.
