Five Anesthesia Methods to Manage Rejuran Healer Pain: A Dermatology Director’s Complete Guide

Hello.

Only as much as you need—become more beautiful!

I’m Mira Lee, the chief director of Banni Dermatology Clinic.

Today, I’d like to share practical ways to receive the famously painful Rejuran Healer treatment more comfortably—specifically, the anesthesia options. (Many people usually only know about numbing cream and sleep anesthesia, but there are actually more options than that.)

In most cases, a numbing cream is applied before Rejuran Healer treatment and enough time is given for it to absorb into the skin, but that is not enough. Numbing cream does not anesthetize the dermal layer, where Rejuran is injected.

Rejuran injects medication into the dermal layer. The dermis has many nerves that detect pain, and the high viscosity of the Rejuran formulation itself can make it feel even more painful. Typically, for 2 cc, more than 50 injections are performed, and for a full face, there can be over 100 needle insertions... so yes, it’s hard not to feel pain.

Unless you have reached a state of invincibility as tough as diamond, it can be difficult to endure.

So, when receiving Rejuran Healer treatment, it’s a good idea to carefully check each clinic’s anesthesia options.

Among the various anesthesia options, you can choose the method according to your pain sensitivity, preferences, schedule, and so on, so that you can receive treatment more smoothly and comfortably.

Rejuran Healer can be effective even with a single session, but if you undergo about three sessions at 4-week intervals, the effect is maximized and lasts for about 6 months. That’s why, if the treatment process itself is pure suffering, that won’t do.

(Every 28 days or so, new skin cells are generated and replaced. The key ingredient in Rejuran Healer, PN polynucleotide, needs time to penetrate deep into the skin and promote collagen production and regeneration. Although one treatment can still be effective, repeated treatments about three times are generally recommended to sufficiently stimulate collagen regeneration and strengthen the skin tissue.)

So, what anesthesia options are available for Rejuran Healer?

Let’s get straight to the point.

Rejuran Healer pain, don’t endure it—get it comfortably.

1. Numbing Cream

A numbing cream is the most basic anesthesia method, right?

Before the procedure, a numbing cream such as lidocaine is applied, and after waiting about 30 to 40 minutes for the anesthetic ingredients to absorb into the skin, the cream is wiped off and the actual procedure begins.

-Advantages

The method is simple and safe, and you can return to daily life immediately after the procedure without any separate recovery time. It also provides some pain relief without the need for anesthesia injections using needles.

-Disadvantages

The fatal downside is that it does not completely eliminate pain.

As mentioned earlier, the anesthesia only works from the epidermis (outer skin) to the dermis, and it does not fully anesthetize the dermal layer where the actual medication is injected, so the pain does not disappear completely. Each needle is felt, leaving a stinging and heavy sensation.

Therefore, it is suitable for people who are generally fairly tolerant of pain.

2. Local Anesthesia (Regional Anesthesia): Pain Relief Through Partial Numbing

If you want to reduce Rejuran Healer pain further, you can choose local anesthesia.

Before the procedure, a local anesthetic such as lidocaine is injected into the areas where nerves pass through (nerve roots) to create an anesthetic effect.

-Advantages

Because it anesthetizes the dermal layer, it definitely reduces pain more than numbing cream. Even after anesthesia, you remain alert and can comfortably receive the procedure without needing extra recovery time, and you can return to daily life immediately afterward.

-Disadvantages

You may feel a stinging sensation when receiving the anesthesia injection. Also, since the anesthetic effect is not 100%, you may still feel the sensation of the needle going in, and the effect can vary from person to person.

In addition, because both sensory nerves and motor nerves are anesthetized, facial movement may feel uncomfortable for 3 to 4 hours after anesthesia.

Therefore, local anesthesia can be an appropriate choice for people who can tolerate pain similar to dental nerve treatment.

3. Painless Injection

Another method is to apply numbing cream to the face while also receiving an additional painkiller by IV drip or intramuscular injection. Numbing cream alone may not be enough to relieve pain, and in such cases, adding an injectable pain reliever can make the procedure more comfortable.

-Advantages

Even people who are sensitive to pain can receive the procedure relatively comfortably. Because the pain-relief effect is greater than using numbing cream alone, it is especially useful for people who do not tolerate pain well. Also, unlike sleep anesthesia, fasting is not required, so there is less burden before the procedure, and it can be done while maintaining daily life.

-Disadvantages

In some cases, side effects such as dizziness or nausea may occur. Also, even with the same pain reliever, the effect can vary greatly from person to person, so the pain may not be relieved as much as expected. Considering these points, it is important to choose an appropriate method according to your pain sensitivity and schedule. 😊

Therefore, pain-relief injections are suitable for those who need an additional anesthesia option because numbing cream alone is not enough to control pain.

4. Sleep Anesthesia

If you have a high sensitivity to pain and want to feel absolutely nothing during the procedure, sleep anesthesia can be considered. Sedatives such as midazolam, ketamine, and propofol are administered through an IV, and about 5 to 10 minutes later, once the patient falls into a light sleep, the procedure begins.

When you wake up? The procedure is already finished. After the procedure, you wake up naturally as the anesthetic wears off.

It is easy to understand if you think of a sleep endoscopy.

-Advantages

You do not feel any pain during the procedure, and because you do not remember the process itself, even people who are afraid of pain or needles can receive it without much 부담.

Also, if pain remains during the procedure, the patient will instinctively flinch and move. But under sleep anesthesia, the body stays still, so unnecessary needle insertions are reduced, tissue damage is lessened, and bruising and swelling may decrease.

-Disadvantages

You must not even drink water for 4 to 6 hours before the procedure. Fasting is required. And after waking from anesthesia, you need about 30 minutes to 1 hour of recovery time, and on the day of the procedure, driving is dangerous because dizziness may remain. Please use public transportation.

Therefore, sleep anesthesia is possible for those who want a clear pain-relieving effect and can clear their entire schedule for the day.

5. Inhalation Anesthesia

This method involves inhaling anesthetic gas such as nitrous oxide (laughing gas) together with oxygen. It is generally performed after applying numbing cream, and if necessary, an additional painkiller injection may be given. Once the gas is inhaled, it takes effect within seconds, making the patient feel drowsy and reducing the sensation of pain.

-Advantages

The effect appears quickly (it works within seconds after inhalation), and you recover from the anesthesia quickly, so you can return to daily life immediately after the procedure. It can also reduce both tension and pain at the same time, making it suitable for people who are afraid of procedures.

Another major advantage is that there is no annoying fasting requirement like with sleep anesthesia.

-Disadvantages

It is not completely painless, and because the procedure is done in a drowsy state, this is the anesthesia method with the greatest individual variation. Some patients may feel dizzy after inhaling the anesthetic gas.

Therefore, inhalation anesthesia is suitable for those who want to reduce pain but find sleep anesthesia burdensome.

During Rejuran Healer treatment,

Fill the process not with pain, but with anticipation and satisfaction.

So far, I’ve explained the various anesthesia options available during Rejuran Healer treatment.

Honestly, I’m not very good at enduring pain myself, so when I see patients struggling and hurting during procedures, I don’t feel at ease. That’s why I always think about how to make the process less painful and more comfortable for patients.

As a result of that effort, we have prepared a range of options, including numbing cream, local anesthesia, pain-relief injections, sleep anesthesia, and inhalation anesthesia.

Above all, Rejuran Healer is not simply a matter of “getting an injection”; it is a process of restoring the skin to health. I hope that process is filled not with unnecessary pain, but with anticipation and satisfaction.

Not a difficult moment you just want to get through quickly, but a process where you can happily look forward to your skin improving.

I hope today’s post was truly helpful for those who had been hesitating because of Rejuran Healer pain, and I’ll wrap up here.

To you, who are already dazzlingly beautiful.
