Who Should Avoid Rejuran?

Rejuran is praised for its ability to heal, strengthen, and restore the skin, but it’s not the perfect fit for everyone. While many people see great results, others with certain skin conditions or sensitivities may experience less improvement or even temporary setbacks.

In this blog, we’ll cover who may want to pause or reconsider before booking a session, and why timing and skin condition matter.

When Rejuran May Not Be the Right Fit

Rejuran works by stimulating collagen, reducing inflammation, and repairing the skin from within. But if your skin is already in a fragile or reactive state, the injection process may do more harm than good — at least in the short term.

Here are a few situations where Rejuran may not be ideal:

If Your Skin Is Irritated or Inflamed

If your skin is red, flaky, or going through an active flare-up from rosacea, dermatitis, or a compromised barrier, introducing micro-injections can overstimulate the skin. This may lead to prolonged redness, bumps, or increased sensitivity.

It’s usually best to calm the skin and restore your barrier first with a gentle skincare routine before starting any injectable treatments.

If You’re Prone to Breakouts or Acne Flares

While Rejuran does not directly cause acne, some people with oily or acne-prone skin may experience breakouts around the injection sites. This is often temporary and caused by mild irritation or congestion during the healing phase.

To minimise this, it’s best to treat active breakouts first and ensure your skin is stable before undergoing Rejuran.

If You Have Hypersensitive or Thin Skin

People with very reactive or delicate skin may find the treatment uncomfortable or slow to settle. Although Rejuran is designed to improve skin quality, the injection process itself can cause lingering redness or bumps in those with low tolerance.

A consultation and patch assessment can help determine if your skin is ready for this type of treatment, or if a gentler approach would be more appropriate.

If You’re Expecting Instant Results

Rejuran is a regenerative treatment, not a quick fix. It works gradually, with visible changes often appearing a few weeks after each session. You typically need three sessions spaced one month apart to see optimal results.

If you’re looking for something with immediate payoff before an event or expecting filler-like volume, Rejuran may not align with your goals.

If You’re Not Able to Commit to the Full Protocol

Consistency is key. Rejuran requires a full series of three sessions over three months, followed by maintenance every few months. If your schedule, travel plans, or budget makes this difficult, it may be better to wait until you can complete the full treatment cycle without interruption.

Final Thoughts

Rejuran offers long-term benefits for many skin types, but it’s not suitable for everyone at every stage. If your skin is irritated, inflamed, breaking out, or overly sensitive, it’s worth holding off and focusing on barrier repair first.

At TT Aesthetics, we always recommend a personalised skin consultation before starting Rejuran. This gives us the chance to assess your skin, understand your goals, and guide you toward the safest and most effective treatment plan.
