Rejuran for Acne Scars Around the Eyes: What You Should Know
Acne scarring near the eyes can be especially challenging to treat. The skin in this area is thinner, more delicate, and more prone to long-term changes such as pigmentation, fine lines, and texture irregularities. Unlike scarring on the cheeks or forehead, periocular scarring requires highly tailored treatment that takes both aesthetic and medical considerations into account.
Why Acne Scars Develop Around the Eyes
While acne is less common around the eyes than in other facial zones, clogged pores, milia, or reactions to skincare products can still trigger breakouts in this area. When inflammation occurs near the orbital bone, the healing process may leave behind flat, indented, or pigmented marks that can be difficult to conceal. Because the skin is thinner here, even minor textural changes can appear more pronounced.
How Rejuran Works on a Cellular Level
Rejuran is a skin-repairing injectable that uses polynucleotides derived from salmon DNA. These polynucleotides are known to support cellular regeneration, improve hydration, and stimulate the production of collagen. When injected into the dermis, Rejuran may help improve skin quality over time by repairing damaged tissue and promoting a healthier skin barrier.
In the eye area, this means Rejuran may help soften the appearance of superficial acne scars, improve skin texture, and enhance resilience. However, results vary and depend on several factors, including the type and age of the scar, skin health, and adherence to post-treatment care.
What to Expect from Treatment
Rejuran treatment around the eyes typically involves a series of microinjections using very fine needles. Due to the sensitivity of this region, numbing cream is often used to minimise discomfort. After treatment, small visible bumps may appear temporarily and usually subside within a few days.
Multiple sessions may be required to see optimal improvement in scar appearance. Your practitioner will develop a schedule based on your skin's response and your goals. Results are not immediate and usually develop gradually over several weeks.
Important Considerations and Limitations
Not all acne scars respond equally to Rejuran. Deeper or tethered scars may require combination treatments, such as microneedling or laser resurfacing, which are not suitable for every skin type or area. The eye area, in particular, must be approached with caution.
Patients with active skin conditions, severe allergies, or inflammatory concerns around the eyes may not be suitable candidates. This is why a full consultation with a qualified healthcare practitioner is essential before proceeding.
Aftercare and Ongoing Support
Post-treatment care plays a vital role in results. Gentle skincare, consistent sun protection, and avoiding harsh products are essential. In some cases, LED light therapy or supportive topical products may enhance outcomes over time.
