Who performs Rejuran injection at Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong?
Rejuran at Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong is injected personally by 2 licensed Korean co-directors -- Dr. Lee Wonjin (KR Medical License 143124, Daegu Catholic University College of Medicine, 2022) or Dr. Lee Kangin (KR Medical License 141247) -- with 15-20 minute consultation, zero nurse delegation, and same-physician continuity across all 3 to 4 cycle sessions. Brand, lot number, total cubic centimeter count per session, variant choice (Healer / Hb / Eye / Kind Premium), and grid injection-point map are recorded on each patient's chart at the time of injection. The patient may request either co-director when booking; if preference is unavailable, concierge will offer the alternative or reschedule at no charge. The co-director who consults you is the same physician who places the 50 to 80 intradermal aliquots — there is no junior-doctor rotation or third-party nurse injection. This matters especially for Rejuran because grid injection-point spacing, intradermal depth (0.5 to 1.5mm) and per-aliquot volume require the physician who has assessed your skin-quality baseline to deliver the grid themselves, and the cycle benefits from continuity across all 3 to 4 sessions.
How long do Rejuran results last at Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong?
Rejuran cycle results typically last 6 to 12 months at Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong, after completing the 3 to 4 session cycle spaced 4 weeks apart. Pore refinement, elasticity gain and post-acne texture softening are documented across the cycle window and gradually soften toward baseline across the following 6 to 12 months as dermal collagen turnover continues. A Korean prospective cohort (Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology 2021, DOI: 10.1111/jocd.13770) tracked polynucleotide skin booster at 4-week intervals across a 3-session cycle and documented significant improvement in pore size, elasticity score and periorbital texture at week 12. Most patients book a maintenance Rejuran shot every 6 to 12 months to sustain dermal remodeling; layering with <a href="/ultherapy-prime-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Ultherapy Prime</a>, <a href="/density-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Density</a> or <a href="/profhilo-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Profhilo</a> may extend the perceived effect window by addressing skin laxity and bio-remodel volume in parallel.
How much does Rejuran cost in Myeongdong Seoul 2026?
Rejuran at Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong is priced per variant and per cubic centimeter count, with no per-area surcharge. Korea pricing for KFDA-cleared Rejuran runs USD 95 to 215 per session at current exchange — 50 to 70 percent less than United States pricing for equivalent polynucleotide skin boosters (USD 600 to 900 per session in the US for comparable PN/PDRN protocols where available) and 40 to 55 percent less than Japan. Standard event pricing: Rejuran Healer (2cc full-face) KRW 189,000; Rejuran Hb (1cc hydration) KRW 149,000; Rejuran Eye (1cc periorbital) KRW 139,000; Kind Premium Rejuran (4cc package) KRW 289,000 (first-visit event KRW 189,000); Lip Rejuran Hb (1cc perioral) KRW 219,000. A standard 3 to 4 session full-face cycle lands at roughly KRW 567,000 to 1,156,000 total. Same KRW price applies to international and Korean patients with no surcharge. Full pricing is published in the table on this page and confirmed at consultation. Korean skin-booster pricing is one of the primary drivers of the 600,000+ medical tourists attracted to Korea in 2023 per KHIDI data.
Rejuran vs Profhilo — how do I choose between polynucleotide and bio-remodeling HA?
The choice depends on whether the dominant issue is skin quality and pore refinement (Rejuran polynucleotide) or skin-bounce bio-remodeling at the mid-face, neck or decolletage (Profhilo HA). <table><thead><tr><th>Criteria</th><th>Rejuran</th><th>Profhilo</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Active ingredient</td><td>Salmon-DNA polynucleotide PN/PDRN</td><td>Stabilized hybrid cooperative HA (HMW + LMW)</td></tr><tr><td>Mechanism</td><td>Regenerative dermal signal</td><td>Bio-remodeling HA hybrid</td></tr><tr><td>Target zone</td><td>Full face, eye, perioral, intradermal</td><td>Mid-face, neck, decolletage, subdermal BAP 5 points</td></tr><tr><td>Effect</td><td>Pore, texture, elasticity</td><td>Skin bounce, hydration, volume-feel</td></tr><tr><td>Sessions</td><td>3-4, 4 weeks apart</td><td>2, 4 weeks apart</td></tr><tr><td>Duration</td><td>6-12 months</td><td>6-9 months</td></tr><tr><td>Indicated for</td><td>Pore, post-acne, fine line</td><td>Mid-face / neck bio-remodel</td></tr></tbody></table> Rejuran is well suited for patients with enlarged pores, post-acne texture, or fine periorbital crepey lines. <a href="/profhilo-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Profhilo</a> is well suited for patients seeking mid-face skin bounce or neck and decolletage bio-remodel where the underlying issue is skin laxity feel rather than pore-size. Many patients layer the two: Rejuran for full-face skin quality, Profhilo for the neck and decolletage zone where polynucleotide is less commonly delivered. Your co-director will guide the layered cycle plan.
Rejuran vs Mesotherapy — what's the difference for a glow protocol?
Rejuran is a regenerative polynucleotide skin booster for skin quality, while Mesotherapy is a cocktail HA / vitamin / peptide protocol for hydration and glass-skin glow. <table><thead><tr><th>Criteria</th><th>Rejuran</th><th>Mesotherapy</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Active ingredient</td><td>PN/PDRN polynucleotide</td><td>HA + vitamins B/C + peptide cocktail (often NCTF135HA)</td></tr><tr><td>Mechanism</td><td>Regenerative dermal signal</td><td>Hydration + nutrient depot</td></tr><tr><td>Effect</td><td>Pore, texture, elasticity</td><td>Glow, hydration, glass-skin</td></tr><tr><td>Sessions</td><td>3-4, 4 weeks apart</td><td>3-5, 2-3 weeks apart</td></tr><tr><td>Onset</td><td>Week 4-12 across cycle</td><td>Day 3-7 hydration, week 4 glow</td></tr><tr><td>Duration</td><td>6-12 months</td><td>3-6 months</td></tr><tr><td>Cost tier</td><td>Mid (KRW 129-289k)</td><td>Entry (lower per-session)</td></tr></tbody></table> Rejuran is the right starting point for patients whose dominant issue is skin quality (pore size, post-acne texture, elasticity loss). <a href="/mesotherapy-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Mesotherapy</a> is the right starting point for patients whose dominant issue is hydration and the glass-skin glow aesthetic, especially for medical-tourism visitors seeking a fast in-and-out glow protocol. Many Korean patients run a Mesotherapy cycle every 2 to 3 weeks layered with quarterly Rejuran maintenance once skin quality is established.
Korean Rejuran vs Western polynucleotide skin booster — what's the difference?
Rejuran is Korean-origin polynucleotide skin booster manufactured by Pharma Research with KFDA clearance dating back to 2014, while equivalent polynucleotide protocols are far less widely available in Western markets. <table><thead><tr><th>Criteria</th><th>Korea (Kind Global)</th><th>United States / Western</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Brand availability</td><td>Rejuran Healer, Hb, Eye, Kind Premium, Lip Hb</td><td>Mostly off-label or limited PDRN imports</td></tr><tr><td>Per-session cost</td><td>USD 95-215</td><td>USD 600-900 where available</td></tr><tr><td>Practitioner</td><td>Licensed physician (Korean Medical Service Act)</td><td>Variable; PN/PDRN often not yet cleared</td></tr><tr><td>Cycle protocol</td><td>3-4 sessions, 4 weeks apart, mature evidence</td><td>Limited clinical infrastructure</td></tr><tr><td>Maintenance</td><td>6-12 month re-injection</td><td>Variable</td></tr></tbody></table> Korean polynucleotide skin booster attracted a significant share of the 600,000+ medical tourists in 2023 per KHIDI data — the value-equivalent quality, mature KFDA clearance, and Korean-physician-only-injection regulation drive medical-tourism demand. At Kind Global Myeongdong, every Rejuran session is injected by one of the two co-directors personally.
How painful is Rejuran injection at Kind Global Myeongdong?
Most patients rate Rejuran discomfort at 3 to 5 out of 10 at Kind Global Myeongdong. The grid pattern of 50 to 80 small intradermal pinpricks is more pinprick-frequent than a single-point HA filler but each pinprick is brief. Co-directors use 30 to 32 gauge ultra-fine needles in a 0.5 to 1.5mm intradermal grid; Dermashine Pro multi-injector delivery is offered as an alternative for grid-pattern uniformity. Topical lidocaine cream is offered for 20 to 30 minutes pre-injection at no extra charge — longer than for HA filler because of the higher pinprick count. Bruising risk is moderate; patients who avoid fish oil, aspirin, ibuprofen, ginkgo, vitamin E and alcohol for 48 hours pre-treatment typically have only 3 to 5 small bruises across the grid. Cold compress immediately post-injection reduces visible bumps. Nitrous-oxide-oxygen sedation (Aeronox) is available at additional cost for highly needle-anxious patients.
What are the side effects and risks of Rejuran?
Rejuran shares the safety profile of polynucleotide skin booster when administered by licensed physicians at a regulated clinic using standard intradermal grid technique. Common temporary effects: grid of small pinprick bumps for 6 to 24 hours, mild redness day 0 to 1, 3 to 5 small bruises across the 50 to 80 grid points (3 to 5 day resolution), and mild dryness for 1 to 3 days. Rare effects include transient inflammatory nodule formation (under 1 percent across published Korean cohorts), and salmon-protein hypersensitivity reaction (patient must disclose fish allergy at consultation). The serious-but-rare adverse event of intra-arterial injection is far less of a concern than with HA filler because intradermal grid depth avoids deep vascular structures. Published mechanistic work (International Journal of Molecular Sciences 2020, DOI: 10.3390/ijms21217684) documents the regenerative pathway and the Korean prospective cohort (Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology 2021, DOI: 10.1111/jocd.13770) documents serious adverse events under 1 percent. Contraindications include pregnancy, active facial infection, autoimmune disease in active flare, and known salmon or fish-protein hypersensitivity.
Are the Rejuran syringes used at Kind Global Myeongdong original Pharma Research product?
Yes — Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong uses only manufacturer-original Pharma Research Rejuran syringes for skin-booster injection, never refurbished, never grey-market, and never repackaged. Each sealed syringe has a unique Pharma Research brand label, serial number, lot number, manufacturing date and expiry date printed on the package. Kind Global records the brand, serial, lot, expiry and total cubic centimeter count delivered on your patient chart at the time of injection. On request before opening the package, we will show you the unopened sealed Rejuran syringe so you can verify the brand label and serial against the manufacturer database. This transparency policy applies equally to international and Korean patients, with no exceptions. The KFDA has documented counterfeit polynucleotide products in the Korean aesthetic market through enforcement reports over recent years; verifying brand label and serial is a direct way for Rejuran patients to confirm authenticity before any injection.
How many Rejuran sessions are needed and when do results appear?
Rejuran is designed as a 3 to 4 session cycle spaced 4 weeks apart, with a maintenance session every 6 to 12 months once the dermal remodeling is established. Single-session response is intentionally subtle because polynucleotide acts as a regenerative dermal signal — collagen turnover and pore-tightening require multiple cycles of fibroblast activation. First-session skin-quality improvement begins to emerge at week 2 to 4 (pores look slightly refined, texture softer). Sessions 2 to 4 are scheduled at 4-week intervals; peak cycle result emerges at week 8 to 12 with pore refinement, elasticity gain, post-acne texture softening and dermal collagen rebuilt. The co-director schedules a follow-up at the end of the cycle to assess whether to extend to a 4th session or move to 6 to 12 month maintenance. First-time Rejuran patients sometimes start with a 3-session cycle and add session 4 if response is below target. Skipping the 4-week interval (e.g. spacing sessions 8 weeks apart) reduces cycle accumulation and is not recommended.
Can I get Rejuran as a same-day procedure when visiting Seoul?
Yes — same-day Rejuran skin booster injection is routine for international visitors making short medical-tourism trips to Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong. This protocol is one of our most-requested options for short-trip travelers seeking a skin-quality result alongside other procedures. Plan 90 to 110 minutes total in clinic: 15-20 minutes co-director consultation with skin-quality mapping, 20-30 minutes topical anesthesia (longer than for HA filler because of grid point count), 15-25 minutes grid intradermal delivery, 5-10 minutes cooling and aftercare brief. Flying home the same day is acceptable but visible pinprick bumps will be present for 6 to 24 hours after injection — most international patients schedule Rejuran 1 to 2 days before departure so bumps have resolved before the flight. If same-day departure is necessary, expect a visible grid of small pinprick bumps during the flight. We recommend SPF 50+ throughout travel days and avoiding alcohol, sauna, jjimjilbang and hot yoga for 48 hours post-injection. If you message us via LINE Official, WhatsApp Business or WeChat before your flight from Tokyo, Bangkok, Madrid, Taipei or Shanghai, we can pre-confirm your Rejuran variant choice and per-session cubic centimeter count so in-clinic check-in takes under 5 minutes. Many medical-tourism patients run the first 1 to 2 sessions in Seoul and complete the cycle on a return trip 8 weeks later.
Do you have English-speaking staff and translators for Rejuran consultation?
Yes — both Kind Global Clinic co-directors conduct Rejuran consultations directly in Korean and English at our Myeongdong 6F location, and HEIM Global concierge interpreters cover other languages. For Japanese, Spanish, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese, HEIM Global concierge provides professional medical interpretation at no additional fee — message via LINE Official, WhatsApp Business, WeChat Official or Telegram before your visit to schedule. Pre-injection interpretation covers history-taking, fish-allergy and immunosuppression review, skin-quality mapping discussion, variant selection rationale (Healer / Hb / Eye / Kind Premium), cubic centimeter target and pricing review; post-injection interpretation covers aftercare, cycle scheduling and maintenance interval planning. Written injection summaries with brand, total cubic centimeter count, lot number and aftercare instructions are provided in your language. For Arabic, Vietnamese, Thai or Russian, contact us via email at info.kindglobal@gmail.com to request a contracted interpreter for your visit window. KHIDI 2025 Medical Tourism Survey notes language accessibility is a top-3 factor for international patients selecting Korean clinics.
Can I combine Rejuran with Ultherapy, Profhilo or RF in the same visit?
Yes — same-visit Rejuran combinations are common at Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong and the layered approach often produces more complete dermal-quality plus lifting results than either alone. The general rule is energy-based device first, polynucleotide booster after, so the thermal energy is not delivered onto freshly placed intradermal polynucleotide. <a href="/ultherapy-prime-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Ultherapy Prime</a> SMAS lifting can be paired same-visit (HIFU first, Rejuran after cooling). <a href="/thermage-flx-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Thermage FLX</a> and <a href="/density-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Density</a> RF treatments are typically delivered first when same-visit. <a href="/profhilo-myeongdong-seoul-korea/">Profhilo</a> bio-remodel is often spaced 2 weeks from Rejuran to avoid intradermal-and-subdermal injection-point overlap. Mesotherapy cocktail boosters are usually run in alternating weeks rather than same-visit to give the dermal remodel response time between protocols. Your co-director will sequence the combination plan based on your face.
Is Rejuran safe in pregnancy, breastfeeding or for patients with fish allergy?
Rejuran is contraindicated in pregnancy and breastfeeding, and patients with documented salmon or fish-protein hypersensitivity should not receive Rejuran because the active polynucleotide is extracted from salmon-sperm DNA. At consultation, the co-director reviews any history of fish allergy, autoimmune disease in active flare, systemic immunosuppression, recent vaccination, recent salmon-fish exposure reactions, and current pregnancy or lactation status. Patients with mild seasonal allergic rhinitis or non-fish food allergies are generally fine but the co-director may recommend a small-volume test injection prior to a full-face Rejuran session if any allergy history is unclear. Patients with autoimmune disease in active flare or systemic immunosuppression should obtain medical clearance from their treating physician before booking. Outside these specific contraindications, the polynucleotide molecular structure is biologically homologous to human DNA fragments and the published Korean cohort (Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology 2021, DOI: 10.1111/jocd.13770) documents serious adverse events under 1 percent.
How do I prepare for my Rejuran appointment at Kind Global?
Before Rejuran, avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E, ginkgo and alcohol for 48 hours pre-treatment to reduce bruising risk across the 50 to 80 grid points. Pause topical retinol, vitamin C, AHA, BHA and any prescription topicals for 3 to 5 days before treatment, and avoid facial peels or laser within 2 weeks. Disclose any salmon or fish-protein allergy, autoimmune disease, or immunosuppression at the consultation form. Hydrate well and eat a normal meal — Rejuran is not performed under sedation, so a full stomach is fine. Bring a photo of your skin from 2 to 3 years ago if available so the co-director can compare baseline pore and texture changes. Arrive at Kind Global Clinic Myeongdong 15 minutes early to allow topical anesthesia time; if you messaged us in advance via LINE or WhatsApp, paperwork is pre-completed. After Rejuran: no makeup 6 to 12 hours, cold compress 5 to 10 minutes every hour day 0, no facial massage 24 hours, no sauna, jjimjilbang, hot yoga, vigorous exercise or alcohol for 48 hours. Restart topical actives at day 7. Avoid Ultherapy, Thermage, micro-needling or peels on the same dermal zone for 1 week before the next cycle session. The co-director schedules the next session at week 4 and books the full 3 to 4 session cycle in advance.
