Why Rejuran feels useless after just one session

Why Rejuran feels useless after just one session

Why Rejuran feels useless after just one session

Rejuran runs 300–400k KRW per session, yet half say one isn't enough. Here's why PN needs more.

리쥬란 1회만 받으실 거면, 차라리 그 돈으로 맛있는 거 드세요 (진심입니다)



Rejuran price in the 300,000 won range,

Why half of the people who only get one treatment

say it has no effect



Let me start with the conclusion.

Rejuran should not be judged by the price per session,

but by the total cost of the 3-session package.



I’ll explain why in this article.





[위영진 칼럼] 리쥬란 효과 없다고 말하는 사람들의 90%가 저지르는 실수



Rejuran price,

why does it vary so much by lineup?

Rejuran is a procedure that extracts PN from salmon/trout DNA

and injects it into the dermis to

stimulate skin regeneration.



It is often compared with Juvelook,

and if Juvelook uses PDLA

to boost both volume and collagen,



Rejuran focuses less on volume and more on

regenerating the dermis itself and improving skin texture.



So even though both are "regeneration procedures,"

they are a bit different in purpose.





리쥬란 1번으로 끝내기? 피부과 원장이 말하는 가장 '비효율적인' 투자법



The real reason Rejuran prices differ is

the lineup



"The average price for one Rejuran Healer treatment is in the 300,000 to 400,000 won range,

but

many people say it has "no effect" after only one session.



To stimulate collagen synthesis, PN must be received

at least 3 times at 4-week intervals for

dermal remodeling to occur."



— Director Wi Young-jin (Beautystone Clinic, Hongdae)





About fifteen people a week ask in the clinic

"How much is Rejuran?"

and this question is actually a bit tricky.



Because Rejuran is not just one product.

It is broadly divided into four types.



Rejuran H, HB, I, and Healer Plus.

Each has different indications,

and their price ranges are different too.



Rejuran H (Healer) is the basic version,

used for dermal regeneration, fine wrinkles, and skin texture.



The average market price is 300,000 to 400,000 won per session.



HB adds hyaluronic acid to provide

immediate hydration and firmness as well,

and its price is usually

50,000 to 100,000 won higher than H.



Rejuran I is a formulation dedicated to the eye area.

Its concentration is adjusted for the thin, sensitive skin around the eyes,

so people seeking care for dark circles and fine wrinkles choose it.




The common price range is 400,000 to 500,000 won.



The key is not the price, but the number of sessions.



For PN to stimulate collagen synthesis

and trigger dermal remodeling,

you need at least 3 sessions at 4-week intervals.



About half of the people who say "I got one treatment and it had no effect"

are really like that,

but it is not because the procedure doesn't work—

it is because the regeneration cycle has not even started yet.



Many people say this part is unexpected.



Last week, a 29-year-old client came in.



She had received one Rejuran H treatment at another clinic,

and came in saying, "I spent 320,000 won and saw no change,

I want a refund and to try a different procedure."



When I looked at her skin, there were slight

signs that her pores had improved.



But she herself did not notice it.



That day, I did not recommend a different procedure.

I told her, "Come back for session 2 in 4 weeks,

and session 3 in 8 weeks,

and if you still do not feel a difference, then we’ll consider something else"

and sent her back.



When she came back after the third session,

she said, "The texture feels different."





Director Wi Young-jin’s key summary



Do not decide based only on the price of one Rejuran session.



Because of PN’s mechanism of action, you need 3 sessions

for the dermis to respond,

so from the beginning,

plan your budget based on the total price of a 3-session package.





15만 원짜리 리쥬란 광고의 비밀: '정품'은 맞지만 '정량'이 아닐 수도 있습니다



Rejuran price, by lineup—

which one applies to you?

Lineup

Main indication

Average price per session

Recommended sessions

Rejuran H

Dermal regeneration, fine wrinkles, texture

300,000–400,000 won

3 sessions at 4-week intervals

Rejuran HB

Regeneration + hydration/firmness

350,000–500,000 won

3 sessions at 4-week intervals

Rejuran I

Fine wrinkles around the eyes, dark circles

400,000–500,000 won

3 sessions at 4-week intervals

Healer Plus

High dose, advanced aging

450,000–600,000 won

2–3 sessions at 4-week intervals

As you can see from the table,

the unit price differences are not that big.



What matters is whether you chose

the right line for your concern.



If you have dark circles under your eyes but get H,

you may save money, but the effect will be mediocre.



And there is one thing I must mention:

you may see ads offering Rejuran for 150,000 to 200,000 won per session.




Since that is around the wholesale price of genuine Rejuran H,

if they are using authentic product properly,

it is difficult to offer it at that price.




They may be using only half the dosage

or a similar PN product.




Before getting the treatment, it is a good idea to

ask to check the product box.




Let me share one more case of a 34-year-old client.




She came for a consultation after seeing an ad for a "3 Rejuran sessions for 600,000 won" package,

but I did not proceed with the treatment that day.




At that price point, it is hard to use genuine H in full dosage

for 3 sessions at 4-week intervals.




I told her, "If you want it at that price,

you would be better off doing it somewhere else,

and if you want it done here, at least get one authentic session

properly."



I thought refusing was

more sincere.





Most frequently asked questions during Rejuran price consultations

The three questions people ask most often



Q1. Then if I get the 3-session package,

how much cheaper is it than getting one session?

A. Honestly,

it really depends on the clinic.



Some places discount it by about one session’s worth,

while others only reduce it by 10–15%.



For H, if one session is 350,000 won,

a 3-session package is often around 900,000 to 950,000 won.



But this is where people really get confused:

rather than the discount rate, look more at whether

they guarantee 3 sessions at 4-week intervals.



If the schedule gets delayed in the middle,

the effect itself will drop.



Q2. How long does the effect last?

Do I need to get it again every year?

A. This is something many people misunderstand.

Rejuran is not something where "once you finish the season, you are good for a year."





After completing the 3 sessions, the effect is best around 6 to 9 months,

and then gradually fades.



For maintenance, I recommend one booster shot every 6 months to 1 year.




The maintenance period varies quite a bit

depending on age and skin condition.




In the late 20s it lasts longer,

and after the 40s it becomes a bit shorter.




Q3. Are there side effects or precautions?

A. This is something I explain the same way every time I treat it,

so let me be clear:



Rejuran is a relatively safe procedure, but

it is normal for injection marks (welts)

to remain for 24 to 48 hours.



If you say, "I have a company dinner tomorrow, so it won’t show, right?"

honestly, it will show.



Do not schedule it within 3 days of an important event.



In rare cases, bruising can last a week,

and you should avoid alcohol, saunas, and intense exercise

on the day of treatment.



If you are pregnant or have an autoimmune disease,

please be sure to tell us before the procedure.





If you take away just one thing today,

it should be this — Rejuran price

should be viewed as the total cost of 3 sessions at 4-week intervals, not one session.





In the next article,

I’ll explain "what people look like 6 months after completing all 3 Rejuran sessions."





Even with the same package,

I’ll show cases of people whose results last longer after 6 months

and people whose effects fade quickly,

as case examples.



This was Wi Young-jin.
