Overview

Rejuran at Spectrum

Rejuran is a polynucleotide, sometimes described as PDRN or salmon DNA. At Spectrum it is placed in the skin as a series of microinjections to support skin quality, texture and resilience. It is not a volumizing filler.

Dr. Sabeen Munib, MD performs every Rejuran treatment. Whether Rejuran fits alone or as part of a plan depends on your skin, the area of concern and your goals, which she reviews at consultation.

The Spectrum approach

Why patients choose Spectrum for Rejuran

Rejuran is a skin-quality treatment, so where it is placed and how much is used matter. Dr. Munib assesses your skin, not a fixed template, and plans placement by area and by need.

She also decides whether Rejuran is the right tool at all. For volume loss or deep folds, other treatments do more. That judgement is part of the consultation.

Every injection is performed by the physician. Rejuran is not delegated at Spectrum.

How Rejuran works

Polynucleotides and PDRN are DNA-derived biopolymers sourced from salmon. They act on the adenosine A2A receptor and support the skin's own nucleotide and repair pathways.

This places Rejuran in the skin-booster category, which aims at skin quality rather than volume or structural projection. It is a different tool from a volumizing filler.

Why it is a series, not a single visit

Benefit builds over repeated sessions. Studies of under-eye and periorbital use report continued improvement across sessions, which is why a short series spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart is typical.

Is this the right treatment

Rejuran, filler or resurfacing

Rejuran is right for some concerns and the wrong tool for others. Here is how it compares.

Presenting concern
What may help
What is weighed first
Thin, crepey under-eye skin
Rejuran can support skin quality here
If the real issue is a hollow or a shadow, a filler or a different plan may fit better
Loss of volume or facial structure
Not this treatment
Rejuran does not add volume. An HA filler or a biostimulator is the volume tool
Deep acne scars or coarse texture
Rejuran can support healing alongside resurfacing
Usually paired with microneedling, subcision or a laser, not used on its own

Combined approaches

What Rejuran pairs with

Concern
Often pairs with
Why
Acne scarring
Microneedling or subcision
Polynucleotides have been reviewed for supporting recovery after a resurfacing step
Overall dullness
Salmon DNA facial or exosomes
Surface and regenerative support used together
Uneven pigment
Pigment-focused care
Polynucleotides have also been studied for pigment support

Candidacy

Who may be a good candidate

Rejuran suits people who want skin-quality change rather than volume. It is not for everyone, and Dr. Munib will say when another treatment fits better.

How Dr. Munib decides

She reviews your skin quality, the area of concern, your prior treatments and your goals, then decides whether Rejuran fits on its own or as part of a plan.

Texture change in a combination plan that included Rejuran.

May be a good fit

Crepey texture, thin under-eye skin, early laxity, or skin recovering from resurfacing, in patients who want skin-quality change rather than added volume.

May not be enough on its own

Volume loss, deep static folds, or deep acne scars, where Rejuran supports but does not replace filler, biostimulation or resurfacing.

Safety

Documented risks

Reported risk profiles for polynucleotide injections are low, but any injection carries risks, which are reviewed with you.

Injection-site reactions

Swelling, redness, bruising and small bumps at the injection points are common and settle over the following days.

Bruising

More likely around the eyes and on thin skin. It resolves on its own.

Uncommon reactions

Tenderness or nodules are uncommon. Across reviewed studies, serious treatment-related events were not reported, but no procedure is risk-free.

You will review the benefits, limits and risks with Dr. Munib and give informed consent before any treatment.

How risk is kept low

Every Rejuran injection is performed by Dr. Sabeen Munib, MD. Placement, depth and volume are chosen for your skin, and your history is reviewed before treatment.

Aftercare and recovery

First day
Keep the area clean. Expect small bumps and mild swelling.
First few days
Avoid heavy exercise, heat and pressure on the treated area.
First week
Use gentle skincare and sun protection while the skin settles.
Between sessions
Return for the next session as planned so the series builds.

Cost

What affects your cost

Rejuran at Spectrum is priced by the area treated. A small area starts at $500 and the under-eye treatment is $649. Larger areas are priced by coverage: face is $850, face and neck is $1250, and face, neck and chest is $1650. The number of sessions in your plan is decided at consultation.

New patients: 20% off your first treatment.

Will it look natural

Will this look natural

Rejuran does not add volume, so it will not make your face look fuller or overfilled. It works on the quality of your skin. Most people notice a gradual change in texture and resilience rather than a sudden difference, so the result reads as your own skin, healthier.

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Sabeen Munib at Spectrum Skin Clinic in Irvine. I visited her for acne scar treatment and underwent three subcision sessions spaced six weeks apart. Throughout my treatment, I was consistently impressed by her expertise, attention to detail, and compassionate approach. Dr. Munib took the time to carefully evaluate my scars, explain the procedure, and answer all of my questions before starting. During each procedure, she made sure I was comfortable and informed every step of the way. Her technique, skill and experience with acne scar subcision gave me complete confidence that I was in capable hands. The entire team at Spectrum Skin Clinic was professional, friendly, and supportive throughout the process. Although acne scar improvement takes time and healing, I appreciate that Dr. Munib focuses on achieving the best possible long-term results rather than making unrealistic promises. She explained what to expect during recovery and emphasized that collagen remodeling happens gradually. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and caring physician for acne scar treatment or subcision, I highly recommend Dr. Sabeen Munib Spectrum Skin Clinic, Irvine. I truly appreciate the care, professionalism, and dedication I received and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking advanced scar treatment.

After several aesthetic nurses told me I was allergic to filler dissolver, Dr. Munib took a careful, evidence-based approach. She used ultrasound to locate my migrated lip filler, tested a small area first, and explained I was reactive—not allergic. She dissolved a small test area before safely treating my upper lip. Throughout the process she was gentle, thorough, and educational. It’s a long drive for me, but her knowledge and expertise make it absolutely worth it.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

At Spectrum, Rejuran is used as a topical polynucleotide protocol layered onto procedures like microneedling, RF microneedling, or selected resurfacing, not as a standalone injectable. Whether it belongs in your plan depends on the base procedure, your skin condition, and your goals, which Dr. Munib reviews at consultation.

PDRN and polynucleotides are purified DNA fragments, commonly associated with salmon-derived source material. In skin-care and aesthetic protocols, they are used for signaling-focused skin support, especially around post-procedure recovery and skin quality.

No. Hyaluronic acid skin boosters hydrate by placing hyaluronic acid in the skin. Rejuran/PDRN is a different category focused on polynucleotide signaling support. They may be discussed in the same consultation, but they are not interchangeable.

Rejuran can be a supportive part of an acne-scar plan, but it does not replace scar-remodeling procedures. Boxcar and rolling texture often need microneedling, RF microneedling, fractional resurfacing, or other scar-specific treatments. Ice-pick scars may need a different approach.

Not as a standalone pigment treatment. Pigmentation care depends on diagnosis, pigment depth, topical pigment inhibitors, photoprotection, and careful device selection when appropriate. Rejuran may support skin quality in a broader plan, but it is not a pigment-clearing shortcut.

Most skin-quality plans are built as a series rather than a one-time visit. The number and spacing depend on the base procedure, skin condition, tolerance, and goals. Dr. Munib gives a realistic timeline at consultation.

Downtime comes mostly from the base procedure, such as microneedling or resurfacing. Expect redness, tightness, warmth, and sensitivity according to that procedure's normal recovery window. The first 48 hours are focused on gentle care, avoiding heat, and strict sun protection.

Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active infection or uncontrolled inflammatory skin disease, or have known fish or seafood allergy may not be candidates. Dr. Munib reviews medical history and current skin status before recommending treatment.
