Papules · Work And Events · Pacific Plaza
Rejuran's marks can be more noticeable than those of a hyaluronic acid booster: an even pattern of small raised papules wherever it was placed, with redness and sometimes a pinpoint bruise. They typically settle within a day or two, and the change in your skin comes later. Dr Sin Yong judges that change at follow-up, so read these timings as a guide.
A typical pattern; yours may differ. What to do in each phase is on Rejuran aftercare, and the treatment itself is on Rejuran at Atelier.
| When | What you may notice | Most people can |
|---|---|---|
| Day 0 | Small raised papules across the treated area, dozens when the cheeks, forehead and temples are all treated, with redness, warmth and slight tightness. Pinpoint bleeding stops before you leave. The skin may look pale and feel numb for a while. | Carry on with a quiet day; there is no dressing. Leave photographs, close-up meetings and heat until the papules have flattened. |
| Days 1–3 | The papules typically settle within 24 to 48 hours, and in many people they are mostly flat by the next morning. Redness fades alongside them. A pinpoint bruise may show, more often under the eyes. | See people at work and socially. Wear make-up once the points have closed and the papules have flattened. |
| Days 4–7 | The papules have gone before any bruise has finished fading. Bruising after an injectable usually settles within 3–7 days; under the eyes it can spread into the lower lid before it clears. | Cover a bruise with a colour corrector under a light base. |
| Week 2 onwards | Faint roughness or a few remaining points can last longer in some people; the timing varies. | Return for the next session, usually two to four weeks after this one. |
| When results show | Texture and hydration change gradually across a course of three to four sessions, not on the day. | Have the change judged at the follow-up visit. |
Work And Social Life
There is no dressing, so what others may see is the dotted pattern and its redness, mainly on the day of treatment. If you meet people close up or work on camera, book the session before a quiet day, as many people do.
Under the eyes, papules show more and a bruise is more likely, because the skin there is thin and its small vessels lie close to the surface.

Events And Travel
Rejuran shortly before an event gives you the papules without the later change in texture and hydration. The course is usually three to four sessions at two- to four-week intervals, so for a wedding or a photo shoot, plan the dates with Dr SY well ahead.
Leave enough time after the last session for any bruise to fade, and more if the under-eye area is part of the plan. Flying is usually fine once the papules have settled.
