Can Rejuran be mixed with lignocaine?

Doctor's Answers 3

I can understand your concern regarding the pain and discomfort especially if the injections are done manually using the sharp needle.

To minimise the discomfort of the Rejuran procedure, I prefer to use an injector gun which can be calibrated to deliver a precise amount at a precise depth.

The needles used are also superfine 31G. To make it more comfortable most doctors will also mix it with a very small amount of lidocaine. This is unlikely to affect the efficacy of the product.

Hope this helps.

Hi!

Yes, Rejuran can be mixed with lignocaine to make the Rejuran injections more comfortable. The efficacy of the Rejuran injections will not be affected by the inclusion of local anesthetic.

Hope this helps!

Hi!

When we perform rejuran combined with skin boosters, the hyaluronic acid filler (for hydration) already has lidocaine in the formulation so the procedure is much more comfortable than having rejuran injected directly.

Rejuran (with or without lidocaine) is definitely efficacious in skin rejuvenation however it's best that you consult with a dr first so that he/she can assess your skin needs and evaluate if rejuran will give your skin a significant improvement!

Is Rejuran effective for treating rolling acne scars permanently?

Rejuran should be considered a supplement to lasers for scar treatment (as opposed to a treatment method on its own); it theoretically provides a more optimal biological framework for wound healing and hence scar remodelling. It is not necessary, and scar treatment with fractional lasers alone can produce a good 50-70% improvement of atrophic scars. It can, however, make the healing better and/or faster. Such an investment can be wise to maximise your time and money spent on the fractional laser sessions. Other techniques can be combined, including subscision and subdermal filler placement.

How long should I wait after fillers before proceeding with Ultherapy or HIFU treatment?

Great question. The sequence of aesthetic treatments are important since multi-modality treatments are a norm these days. Because of HA filler injections used, I generally wait for 3-4 weeks later, before proceeding with HIFU treatment. Although there is no clinical studies, however this recommendation is backed by consensus from experienced doctors who are key opinion leaders in Aesthetic Medicine. My preference is to be safe and steady, to yield the best results for my patients and minimize any potential side effects/ complications. Hope this helps.
