3 minute read.
Learn about Rejuran, a polynucleotide-based skin treatment often referred to in media as the “salmon sperm facial” and associated with public figures such as Kim Kardashian. This page outlines how the treatment works, what it may address, and what to expect at Beauty by Doctor in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs. Consultation is required to assess suitability.
The Interest Around Rejuran
Rejuran Healer has gained attention in recent years, sometimes referred to in media as the “salmon sperm facial” and associated with public figures such as Kim Kardashian.
Clinically, Rejuran is a polynucleotide (PN)-based injectable derived from salmon DNA. It is used in aesthetic practice to support skin repair processes and improve overall skin quality.
What is Rejuran?
Rejuran Healer contains polynucleotides (PN), which are fragments of DNA derived from salmon. These compounds are studied for their role in supporting tissue repair and regeneration. In aesthetic practice, they are used to assist with improving skin texture, hydration, and structural integrity.
This treatment focuses on supporting the skin at a cellular level rather than altering facial shape or volume.
Rejuran: Treatment Classification
Is Rejuran a Dermal Filler?
No. Dermal fillers are used to add volume or contour to specific areas. Rejuran does not provide volumisation. Its purpose is to support skin quality, including texture, elasticity, and hydration.
Is Rejuran a Skin Booster?
Rejuran may be considered a type of skin booster due to its hydrating effects. In addition, it is used to support tissue repair processes, which may contribute to changes in overall skin quality over time.
Biostimulator, Bioremodeller, or Injectable Hydration Treatment?
Rejuran may be described as a biostimulator, as it is used to support collagen production and tissue repair. It may also be considered a bioremodelling treatment, as it is used to influence skin structure and function. Its hydrating properties further support its role in improving skin condition.
How Rejuran Works
Polynucleotides in Rejuran are used to support tissue repair pathways and collagen synthesis. This may assist in improving skin texture, elasticity, and hydration over time. The treatment is delivered via a series of microinjections into the skin.
Changes in skin quality are typically observed progressively over several weeks, with ongoing changes possible following a course of treatments.
What to Expect
Treatment involves multiple small injections placed into the skin. A series of sessions is usually recommended depending on the treatment area and individual assessment.
Following treatment, patients may notice changes in skin texture, hydration, and firmness over time. Outcomes vary between individuals.
Rejuran and Other Treatments
Rejuran may be used alongside other aesthetic treatments as part of a broader treatment plan. This can include treatments such as Profhilo, Sculptra, dermal fillers, and wrinkle-relaxing treatments. The appropriate combination and sequencing of treatments should be determined during consultation.
When Rejuran May Not Be Suitable
Rejuran is generally not recommended during pregnancy or in the presence of active skin infection or inflammation in the treatment area. Suitability is assessed during consultation.
Treatment Areas for Rejuran
Rejuran may be used in multiple areas depending on individual concerns. Common treatment areas include the under-eye region, face, neck, hands, and scalp.
