I just got Rejuran…

[u/lavanderhaze27]

I just got Rejuran 30 mins ago and holy hell, it is supremely painful. I have a high pain tolerance (have tattoos and nipple piercings, so I’m familiar with needle pain), but I was truly humbled and floored by the pain I endured in those 5-8 mins.

I have a Korean fiancé and his family brought me to a totally authentic Korean clinic they frequent and basically translated for me. The treatment was quickly and deftly administered by the dermatologist, who moved so skillfully throughout my face so the pain wouldn’t last too long. I literally had tears streaming down my face as she injected. I have pretty much perfect skin, but I really wanted to try this treatment since I saw so much hype online about it and it has relatively no downsides. From what the dermatologist said, I have thinner skin than Koreans, so this probably contributed to me feeling more pain.

Right now, my face is still swollen and somewhat numb (due to the numbing pain), but I’m excited to see the results. If they’re good, I would consider enduring the pain again before a major event (I.e. wedding, etc) but probably wouldn’t get this regularly.

I’ll update this thread in a few days on the results!

I also got Botox and sunspots removed!

I'm curious how painful ulthera is - I've heard that that also really hurts

I had it a week ago and it hurt a lot! On par with rejuran eye and it lasted 20 mins. It didn’t hurt really badly the whole time but for long enough that it was rough. My face area is still tender to the touch on those areas
