Rejuran Under Eyes

The contents of this article is medically checked by: Drs. Tom van Eijk

Rejuran under the eyes is an injectable skin-enhancing treatment primarily considered for fine lines, thin skin, a crepey texture, and reduced skin quality in the delicate under-eye area. It is not a traditional dermal filler and typically does not add volume.

Rejuran focuses on improving skin quality and addressing thin or fragile skin. It is not a tear trough filler and is usually not the first choice for deep hollows, prominent eye bags, or severe pigmentation.

The underlying cause of your concern determines which treatment is most suitable. For example, dark circles can be caused by thin skin, pigmentation, shadowing, volume loss, or eye bags. While Rejuran may help with some of these issues, it is not designed to fill deep tear troughs or mask prominent bags.

On Injectablesbooking, you can compare clinics based on price, reviews, location, and available practitioners. When choosing a clinic, do not just look at the cost—consider their experience with under-eye treatments, professional qualifications, aftercare, and the clarity of their consultation.

When might you choose Rejuran under the eyes?

Rejuran may be considered:

  • For fine lines under the eyes.

  • For thin or fragile skin.

  • For a crepey skin texture.

  • For generally reduced skin quality.

  • For mild dark circles caused by thin skin revealing underlying vessels.

  • When adding volume is not the primary goal.

When is Rejuran less suitable?

Rejuran is usually less effective for:

  • Deep tear troughs (hollows).

  • Prominent eye bags.

  • Severe hyperpigmentation.

  • Pronounced volume loss.

  • Significant excess skin.

  • Active skin infections.

  • Unrealistic expectations.

A responsible practitioner will not automatically recommend a treatment. Sometimes, Rejuran under the eyes simply does not address the root cause of your concern. In such cases, the clinic should explain which alternative option makes more sense or why treatment may not be advisable.

What does Rejuran do under the eyes?

Rejuran supports skin quality, texture, and cellular repair under the eyes. It is frequently discussed for fine lines, thin skin, and crepeyness, but it works very differently from a dermal filler.

Polynucleotides / PDRN for skin quality

Rejuran is formulated with polynucleotides, also known as PN or PDRN. These compounds are often described as highly purified fragments of salmon DNA. In aesthetic medicine, polynucleotides are used to support skin repair, strengthen the skin barrier, and stimulate collagen and elastin production within the dermis.

To learn more about the active ingredient, read our detailed guide on polynucleotide treatments.

Rejuran Eye or Rejuran I

For the eye area, the variants "Rejuran Eye" or "Rejuran I" are often used. These specific products are designed for the thin, sensitive skin around the eyes. A good clinic will clearly explain which product variant they are using during your consultation.

Always ask which product is being used, whether it is specifically formulated for the eye area, and why it suits your individual skin concern. Product authenticity and correct injection techniques are crucial for safety and optimal results.

Not a filler for under-eye volume

Rejuran under the eyes is not a tear trough filler. Its goal is not to fill deep hollows, but rather to improve skin condition, texture, and fine lines. If you have true volume loss or deep tear troughs, a different approach may be required.

Which under-eye concerns are suitable for Rejuran?

In summary: Rejuran is most relevant when the under-eye concern relates to skin quality, thin skin, fine lines, or texture. For pigmentation, eye bags, or deep hollows, Rejuran is rarely sufficient as a standalone treatment.

Under-eye concern

Is Rejuran relevant?

Why

Fine lines

Often

Focuses on skin quality and texture.

Thin skin

Often

Can help support fragile under-eye skin.

Crepey texture

Often

Aimed at refining the skin's appearance.

Dark circles (due to thin skin)

Sometimes

Depends entirely on the cause of the discolouration.

Vascular shadows

Sometimes

Requires assessment by a practitioner.

Pigmentation

Limited

Pigment usually requires a different approach.

Deep tear troughs

Usually not enough

Volume loss typically requires a different treatment plan.

Eye bags or puffiness

Usually not the first choice

The underlying cause must be assessed first.

Fine lines and crepey skin

Rejuran is frequently discussed for fine lines under the eyes because it targets skin quality and texture. This is fundamentally different from relaxing muscles with anti-wrinkle injections (Botox) or restoring volume with fillers.

Read more about Rejuran for fine lines.

Thin or fragile skin

The skin under the eyes is naturally thin and reacts more noticeably to swelling, dryness, and ageing. When skin quality diminishes, shadows, fine lines, and a tired look can become more prominent. Rejuran is often considered here to support skin repair and thicken the dermis over time.

Dark circles caused by thin skin

Rejuran may be relevant if dark circles are partially caused by thin skin making underlying blood vessels more visible. However, if the dark circles are due to pigment, shadowing from volume loss, or prominent eye bags, a different approach is usually needed. Read more about Rejuran for dark circles.

Eye bags, pigment, or deep tear troughs

For distinct eye bags, fluid retention, fat pads, heavy pigmentation, or deep tear troughs, Rejuran is rarely the first choice on its own. In these cases, a practitioner can assess whether tear trough filler, PRP, skin therapy, or no treatment at all is the most logical step.

Proper assessment is essential. The practitioner will evaluate your skin thickness, elasticity, vascular structure, shadowing, volume loss, and anatomy to determine if Rejuran makes sense for you.

Rejuran under eyes or tear trough filler?

Rejuran under the eyes is aimed at skin quality, fine lines, and texture. Tear trough filler is designed to address volume loss or deep hollows under the eyes. Which treatment is right for you depends entirely on the cause of your concern.

When is Rejuran a better fit?

Rejuran is usually more suitable when the skin under the eyes looks thin, finely lined, or less firm, but there is no obvious hollow that needs filling. It is primarily an option for improving skin quality.

When is filler a better fit?

Filler may be more appropriate for actual volume loss or a deep tear trough. This requires a highly experienced practitioner, as the under-eye area is prone to swelling, visible product placement, and overcorrection.

Can you combine Rejuran and filler?

A combination can sometimes be considered, but it is not automatically better. A practitioner must assess whether your skin quality, anatomy, and expectations justify combining both treatments.

If you would like to compare these options in more detail, read our Rejuran vs fillers guide.

Results, sessions, and recovery after Rejuran

Rejuran under the eyes works gradually. The number of sessions required and how quickly results appear vary per person and depend on skin quality, the specific under-eye concern, the product used, and the treatment plan.

Are two sessions of Rejuran enough?

Two sessions can sometimes be sufficient for mild skin concerns, but Rejuran under the eyes is often built up over a course of several treatments. The exact number of sessions depends on the severity of the fine lines or thin skin, the interval between treatments, and your practitioner’s advice.

How quickly do you see results?

Unlike dermal fillers, the results of Rejuran are not immediate. The skin changes incrementally. Some people first notice a subtle improvement in skin texture or freshness, while significant changes to fine lines and overall skin condition can take more time.

How long do the results last?

The longevity of the results varies from person to person. Factors such as skin type, age, lifestyle, sun exposure, baseline under-eye quality, and maintenance treatments all play a role. Read more about how long Rejuran results last.

Can you go back to work immediately?

Many people can resume daily activities quickly, but redness, swelling, small bumps (papules), or bruising may be temporarily visible. Keep this in mind if you have an important meeting, workday, or social event shortly after your treatment.

Rejuran before and after photos can help set realistic expectations, but they do not guarantee your personal result. Pay attention to photos showing patients with similar skin concerns and lighting.

Side effects and risks around the eyes

Temporary redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness, small bumps, and injection marks can occur after Rejuran under the eyes. Because the skin in this area is so thin, these reactions may be more noticeable here than on other parts of the face.

Normal reactions after Rejuran

Following the treatment, you may experience temporary reactions such as:

  • Redness

  • Mild swelling

  • Small bumps (papules)

  • Bruising

  • Sensitivity

  • Visible injection points

  • Temporary asymmetry due to swelling

These reactions usually subside on their own, though recovery time varies per person.

What are the disadvantages of PDRN?

Potential drawbacks of PDRN or polynucleotide treatments include the temporary skin reactions mentioned above. Additionally, not everyone is a suitable candidate. Always discuss any allergies, active skin infections, pregnancy, breastfeeding, autoimmune diseases, and the use of blood-thinning medication during your consultation.

Because some PDRN products are derived from salmon DNA, it is vital to disclose any fish or seafood allergies to the clinic.

For a more comprehensive look at potential reactions, visit our Rejuran side effects page.

Why the under-eye area requires extra caution?

The under-eye region has very thin skin and complex anatomy. Swelling, bruising, or small bumps can be much more prominent here. Therefore, proper assessment, precise injection techniques, and specific experience with under-eye treatments are crucial.

When should you contact the clinic?

Contact your clinic if you experience increasing pain, worsening swelling, signs of infection, unusual skin discolouration, a fever, or symptoms that do not improve as expected. If in doubt, it is always best to consult your practitioner.

Aftercare for Rejuran under eyes

Following proper aftercare helps minimise temporary reactions and supports healing. Always follow the specific instructions provided by your clinic, as advice may vary depending on the technique and your individual skin reaction.

You will usually be advised to temporarily avoid:

  • Makeup directly after the treatment.

  • Strenuous exercise.

  • Saunas, sunbeds, and excessive heat.

  • Alcohol around the time of treatment.

  • Rubbing or massaging the under-eye area.

  • Active or harsh skincare products on the day of treatment.

  • Unprotected sun exposure.

Applying a cool pack can sometimes help soothe swelling, but only do this if advised by your clinic. Your practitioner may also suggest sleeping with your head slightly elevated if swelling occurs.

How much does Rejuran under eyes cost?

The short answer: the cost of Rejuran under the eyes varies depending on the clinic, the practitioner, the product used, the amount required, the number of sessions, and the location. Do not just compare the price per syringe—also consider the practitioner's experience with under-eye treatments, patient reviews, and the quality of aftercare.

A lower price per session does not always mean lower total costs. Rejuran is often carried out as a course of treatments. Therefore, the total price depends heavily on how many sessions you need and whether follow-up appointments and aftercare are included.

Cost factor

Why it matters

Number of sessions

Multiple treatments are often required for optimal results.

Product used

Whether Rejuran Eye, Rejuran I, or another variant is used should be clearly explained.

Practitioner

Experience with under-eye injections often reflects in the price.

Location

Prices can vary significantly by region and clinic overheads.

Consultation & review

Not all clinics include consultation or follow-up fees in the base price.

Aftercare

Accessibility after treatment is vital if you experience swelling or have concerns.

Reviews

Help you compare value based on other patients' experiences.

How to choose a clinic for Rejuran under the eyes

Choose a clinic that has proven experience with under-eye treatments, conducts a thorough medical consultation, and provides transparent information regarding the product, pricing, risks, and aftercare.

What to compare

Why it matters

Qualified practitioner

Under-eye injections require advanced medical expertise and anatomical knowledge.

Under-eye experience

The under-eye zone is incredibly thin and delicate.

Clear diagnosis

Dark circles, eye bags, and hollows all have different root causes.

Product used

They should explain why Rejuran Eye or an alternative is chosen.

Transparent pricing

You need to know the total cost, as multiple sessions may be needed.

Patient reviews

Help you evaluate the clinic's standard of care and communication.

Before & after photos

Can clarify expectations, but do not guarantee individual results.

Aftercare & support

Essential if you experience swelling, side effects, or have questions.

Qualifications, experience, and product choice

Check who is carrying out the treatment and whether they are a registered medical professional (e.g., GMC, NMC, or GDC registered) with specific experience in the eye area. The under-eye zone demands far more precision than many other facial areas.

Ask which product is being used, why it suits your specific skin concern, and how many sessions are likely required. A reputable clinic will be honest about what Rejuran can and cannot achieve.

Comparing reviews, prices, and aftercare

Reviews can help you compare clinics, especially regarding the thoroughness of the consultation, the clarity of explanations, and aftercare. Look beyond just the final result—pay attention to how clearly the clinic communicates risks, recovery times, and potential alternatives.
