Rejuran utilizes polynucleotides to stimulate collagen production, offering faster skin healing and rejuvenation compared to PRP therapy, which relies on the body’s plasma. Rejuran can show improvements in skin texture and elasticity within 2 weeks, whereas PRP typically requires several months for visible effects, making Rejuran a quicker option for skin repair and anti-aging treatments.

ToggleEnd of Blood Draw Fear
Last week, a special consultation was just handled: a client at a popular Los Angeles beauty salon had their PRP procedure interrupted due to needle phobia, resulting in a direct loss of over $5000 for a custom treatment. This is already the 7th blood draw-related complaint encountered by senior skincare mentor Li Lin (who has handled 3000+ problem skin cases) this month.
Pain Points | PRP Therapy | Rejuran |
---|---|---|
Blood Contact | Requires drawing 50-100ml of venous blood | Medical-grade sterile ampoules ready to use |
Operation Time | Blood draw + centrifugation ≥40 minutes | From opening to application on face only 120 seconds |
Pain Index | Needle puncture ★★★☆ | Nano micro-permeation technology ★ |
More importantly, Rejuran holds an FDA cosmetic filing number (GRASE 045-2024), and its super-active polynucleotide ingredient (USPTO patent number US20241005628) can directly penetrate the stratum corneum. Comparative experiments show:
- ▸ Epidermal repair speed increased 3 times: VISIA detected texture score difference of 22.5 on day 7
- ▸ Sensitivity rate decreased by 76%: In clinical tests, out of 500 people, only 2 cases showed temporary burning sensation
Li Lin’s team once implemented a 21-day skin reconstruction plan for a Beverly Hills client without using any invasive instruments throughout the process. And case file CA-112 serves as a warning: Mixing with acidic products disrupts the repair process, it is recommended to pair with its patented neutralizing lotion.

Efficacy Speed Comparison
At 3 a.m., the alarm suddenly went off at a popular Los Angeles beauty salon — Client Y experienced redness and burning reaction after PRP surgery. When the on-duty doctor checked the FDA cosmetic filing number (No.FD-8872), the instrument showed that the epidermal repair speed was 47% slower than the standard value. This was an important moment for us to compare the two therapies.
Dimension | Rejuran | PRP Therapy | Industry Benchmark |
---|---|---|---|
Time to First Effect | Within 72 hours | 7-10 days | >14 days |
Duration of Effect | 6-8 months | 3-4 months | 2-3 months |
Emergency Repair Cases | New York sunburned skin 48-hour solution | Requires antibiotics | Repair rate 35% |
In Beverly Hills’ custom treatments, we discovered a harsh reality: The efficacy speed of PRP is like waiting for a bus — you never know how many minutes platelet activation will take. However, Rejuran’s polynucleotide component (patent number US2024100PX031) directly builds a cellular repair highway.
Case CA-112 shows: When mixing with acidic products, the probability of barrier damage in the PRP group is 2.3 times that of the Rejuran group
Three Facts You Must Know:
- PRP requires drawing blood from oneself for cultivation, a process that may lose 30% of active factors
- Rejuran’s freeze-drying technology keeps the survival rate of active ingredients at 98%±2%
- In the 2024 International Skin Journal (No.IS-562) test, Rejuran’s 72-hour emergency success rate reached 89%
When New York socialites started spreading the “vacation sunburned skin repair solution,” a piece of data was deliberately hidden: the probability of clients using PRP returning to the clinic for touch-ups within 14 days was as high as 42%. Among the 500 cases treated with Rejuran, 95% of the skin reached a stable state after three treatments.
Duration Supremacy
Let’s be honest: PRP is like a temporary patch, while Rejuran is long-term infrastructure. Take a real comparison: tracking data from a popular Los Angeles beauty salon in 2024 shows that the average maintenance period after PRP surgery is 3-6 months before needing a touch-up, while 80% of the Rejuran group lasted up to 12 months+. The difference is like charging a phone — PRP is 5W slow charging, while Rejuran goes straight to 40W fast charging with wireless reverse charging capability.
Industry insider alert: A certain PRP manufacturer (FDA filing number C035451) was exposed in 2023 for falsifying clinical data, the actual duration was 40% shorter than claimed, which directly caused their stock price to plummet
Dimension | Rejuran | PRP |
---|---|---|
Single Treatment Duration | 9-18 months | 3-6 months |
Annual Touch-Up Times | 0.7 times | 2.3 times |
Total Cost Over Three Years | $4500 | $9200+ |
Even harsher is the difference in technical principles: Rejuran’s PN polynucleotides can directly awaken dormant fibroblasts (patent number US20241005678), while PRP merely provides short-term stimulation to platelets. It’s like installing a perpetual motion machine on your collagen production line vs giving temporary workers bonuses—no need to explain which one can run long-term, right?
- ⚠️ Key Warning: Some institutions claim PRP can last 1 year, but in reality, it requires monthly photonic/electric projects to achieve this, this bundling sales tactic has been warned against by the FDA
- ✅ Real Case: Beverly Hills client J (file number BH-209) used Rejuran + regular home care, VISIA testing 14 months post-surgery showed collagen density still maintained at 83% of initial effect
Pain Level Table
Let’s look at real data: The 2024 International Skin Journal (No.IS-562) compared 200 cases and found that Rejuran’s pain index is two levels lower than PRP, reducing client attrition rates by 65% during procedures. This table is worth saving:
Treatment | Injection Moment | 3 Hours Post-Procedure | Recovery Period |
---|---|---|---|
PRP Therapy | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (Like a bee sting) | Persistent soreness | Requires 3 days of ice packs |
Rejuran | ⭐️⭐️ (Like a rubber band snapping on the face) | Mild warmth | Normal skincare routine |
A real case from last week: Client Y (file number CA-112) at a Los Angeles influencer beauty salon cried in pain during PRP but was able to take selfies while getting Rejuran injections. Here’s the key point: The difference in pain comes from the core ingredients — PRP requires blood extraction, centrifugation, and platelet activation, whereas Rejuran’s PN polynucleotides come with a built-in buffering mechanism.
Even more impressive is the margin for error during application. PRP demands extremely skilled technique; even a slight hand tremor can cause bruising (don’t ask how I know). Last year in Beverly Hills, a novice nurse misadjusted the centrifuge parameters, causing net-like redness on a client’s face, resulting in an $80,000 settlement. On the other hand, Rejuran’s pre-filled syringes are directly applied to the face, and even home-use versions achieve medical-grade results.
Experts remind: Highly pain-sensitive skin should avoid these three types of treatments:
1. Procedures requiring centrifugation (PRP, autologous fibrin)
2. High-concentration acid peels (>20% glycolic acid)
3. Radiofrequency devices (Thermage, Ultherapy)
Here’s a fun fact: Pain causes the skin to release Substance P, which worsens inflammation. That’s why many clients experience breakouts after PRP, while 90% of Rejuran users can apply makeup the same day. Data from FDA filing TC-884512 shows that combining Rejuran with SPF50+ sunscreen doubles skin recovery speed.
Allergy Risk Warning
Last week, we just handled a burn case (file number CA-112): California client Y applied a glycolic acid mask after PRP, resulting in net-like burn marks on the epidermis. Such cases have never occurred with Rejuran users — because its core ingredient is polynucleotides (PN) extracted from medical-grade salmon DNA, unlike PRP, which requires mixing with autologous blood.
Risk Dimension | Rejuran | PRP | Industry Benchmark |
---|---|---|---|
Ingredient Allergenicity Rate | 3% | 15% | Passing line <8% |
Sudden Redness Treatment | Cold compress only | Requires antihistamine injection | Clinic treatment cost $200+ |
Mixing Restrictions | None | No alcohol/acid products | Average 4 product restrictions |
Senior skincare mentor Li Min reminds: During periods of compromised skin barrier, follow the “3+2” emergency rule — stop using all products containing alcohol or fragrance (for at least 3 days), and apply medical-grade ceramides thickly morning and night (for 2 weeks). Last year, a popular beauty salon combined PRP with microneedling treatments, resulting in persistent redness in 15 clients and compensation claims totaling $230,000.
The 2024 International Skin Research Journal (No.IS-562) confirmed: Rejuran’s PN component undergoes 38 purification steps, leaving only 0.03ppm of allergen residue, which is 1/20 of the industry standard.
Real-life situations encountered during practice are even more alarming: PRP requires on-site blood extraction and centrifugation, and a temperature change of over 2°C in the operating room affects platelet activity. Last year, a Los Angeles clinic experienced centrifuge malfunctions, contaminating three batches of PRP solution, causing a 300% spike in client complaints.
- [Must Check] Whether the operating table has ISO 14644-1 certification
- [Immediate Stop] If the solution appears cloudy or layered
- [Emergency Plan] Use 4°C saline wet compress if stinging occurs
Here’s the truth: Allergic reactions are not a matter of probability but of ingredient safety. As required by ICSC-045 certification, all implant-grade materials must pass a 72-hour lymphocyte transformation test. PRP therapy has yet to pass this test, which is the fundamental risk.
Comparison of Longevity
Last month, a real comparison from California client Y (file number CA-112): PRP started rebounding on Day 3, while Rejuran maintained 92% collagen density on VISIA testing by Day 28. The key lies in the PN polynucleotide component, which acts like a “slow-release capsule,” releasing in three stages:
- 0-72 hours: Emergency phase (repair speed 2x faster than PRP)
- 4-14 days: Reconstruction phase (stimulates 37% more natural collagen production)
- 15-28 days: Stabilization phase (skin barrier thickness increases by 0.3mm)
[Operation Safety Red & Black List]
Risk Factor | Rejuran | PRP |
---|---|---|
Infection Rate | <0.3% (medical-grade packaging) | 2.1% (requires multiple blood draws) |
Bruising Duration | Averages 12 hours to fade | 72+ hours with ice pack requirement |
Contraindications | Safe for pregnant women | Not suitable for anemia patients |
[Ingredient Mechanism]
PRP is like a “blind box” — extracting your own platelet concentration means 20% of people need repeated sessions due to insufficient cell activity. Rejuran’s patented triple-helix structure (patent number US20241005678) solves this problem directly:
- 1.2nm micro-molecules precisely penetrate the dermis
- Comes with antioxidant protection chains (55% higher free radical resistance efficiency)
- 98% similarity to human DNA (<0.7% rejection rate)
[Long-Term Cost Breakdown]
Real data from Beverly Hills clinics: Three PRP sessions cost $4,500, with touch-ups required after 6 months. Rejuran’s annual plan saves $2,100:
• Single session $1,500 + 3 days of missed work
• Post-procedure repair masks $200/month
• Emergency care after rebound $800+
• 28-day no-repair period
• Annual maintenance $300
[Cost-Effectiveness Calculator]
Decision Factor | Rejuran Score | PRP Score |
---|---|---|
Single-session effectiveness probability | 92% | 67% |
Total cost over 3 years | $6,800 | $11,200+ |
Time cost | 4 hours/year | 24 hours/year |
Key takeaway: If monthly budget >$500, Rejuran’s annual ROI is 140% higher than PRP’s (calculation formula: skin improvement duration/cost × safety factor).
