This article will help you understand it all at once.

Price list of Hyaluronic Acid injections in Myeongdong (updated in 2026)

As the core commercial district of Seoul, Myeongdong boasts a high density of Dermatology clinics and fierce competition, resulting in relatively transparent prices for glow injections. The following outlines the price ranges for popular glow injection treatments in the Myeongdong area as of June 2026, based on publicly available information from multiple clinics and actual consultations:

Rejuran HB (2 centum core)	Starting from ¥5 million	Starting from approximately ¥2,700	It is recommended to do it 3 times.
Rejuran Blue Box S (1 centum core, for topical use)	Starting from ¥2.8 million	Starting from approximately ¥1,510	By body part

The advantage of buying in Myeongdong lies in the fierce competition, relatively affordable prices, and the convenience of combining it with shopping trips.

How to choose among Rejuran’s four major product lines? A comparison of ingredients, effects, and target user groups

Rejuran is a luxury hydrogel brand produced by Pharmaresearch of South Korea, with PDRN (polynucleotides extracted from salmon DNA) as its core ingredient. Different colored boxes correspond to different effects; choosing the wrong one would mean wasting your money.

Series	Commonly known as	Specifications	Key benefits	Suitable for
Black Box Healer	All-round repair solution	2 ml per vial, 2 vials in total	Dermal repair, anti-aging, Pores improvement, brightening	Prematurely aged skin, enlarged Pores, and rough texture
White Box I	Specialized for the area around the eyes	1 ml, 1 vial	Reduce the appearance of Dark circle treatment, smooth out eye wrinkles, and improve the look of eye bags	Those troubled by fine lines around the eyes and Dark circle treatment
Red Box HB	Moisturizing and anti-aging effects	1 ml, 1 vial	Profound moisturization + collagen regeneration, anti-wrinkle effects	Dry skin, increased dryness during season changes, and noticeable fine lines
Blue Box SWOMAN	The savior for those with acne-prone skin	1 ml, 1 vial	Removes acne scars, improves the appearance of pockmarks, and Pore tightening	Acne-prone skin with visible scars and marks

Tips: The Black Box is the most classic “all-round” option. If this is your first time trying Rejuran, it is recommended to start with the Black Box. If your main concern are skin problems around the eyes, choose the White Box directly – its molecules are smaller and more suitable for the delicate areas around the eyes. The Red Box is suitable for dry skin, while the Blue Box is specifically designed for those with acne-prone skin.

What are salmon needles? How do they differ from Rejuran?

Many people think that “salmon needle” refers to a particular brand, but in fact, it denotes injection treatments that use PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotides) as their main ingredient. Rejuran itself contains PDRN, but there are also many specialized “salmon needle” products on the market that offer lower prices and simpler ingredients.

Comparative items	Rejuran (Black Box)	Salmon Needle (Universal PDRN)
Key Ingredients	2% PN (Polynucleotides)	1-2% PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotides)
Recovery capacity	Stronger (larger molecules, longer-lasting effects)	Medium (basic repair barrier)
Price (2 centum cores)	₩250,000 to 400,000	1.5 to 3 million yen
Suitable	Anti-aging + Deep Repair	Repair for sensitive skin and post-operative recovery
Speed of effectiveness	Results begin to become visible gradually within 2 to 4 weeks.	Improvements can be seen within 1 to 2 weeks.

In simple terms: If you have a sufficient budget and are looking for anti-aging effects, choose Rejuran; if your budget is limited and you mainly want to treat sensitive skin or recover after surgery, salmon needles offer a better value for money. The two treatments can also be used in combination (salmon needles as a base treatment, followed by Rejuran for enhanced results). Many clinics offer discounts on “combined treatment packages”.

A guide to avoiding common pitfalls: 3 frequently encountered issues with hyaluronic acid injections

Although hyaluronic acid injections are considered a basic form of cosmetic surgery, there are still many potential pitfalls. Before going to South Korea for such treatments, it is essential to understand these three key points:

1. The low-price trap: A Rejuran PN set for only ¥950,000? Chances are high that it is a diluted product or a fake.

The regular Rejuran PN (2 centum core) is quite expensive, with a reasonable price in the Myeongdong area starting from 925,000 won. If you come across a “Rejuran” product priced below 910,000 won, it is either a diluted version or a counterfeit product. Genuine clinics will always allow you to check the product packaging, barcode, and anti-counterfeiting labels.

2. The trap of dosage: Even when it comes to a “full face treatment,” the amount of product used can differ significantly by a factor of two.

The effectiveness of glow injections is directly related to the amount of fluid injected. For basic glow treatments, 2–3 centum cores are usually required for the entire face, and the standard dosage for Rejuran PN is also 2 centum cores. Some clinics may quote lower prices, but in reality, only 1 centum core is used, resulting in significantly reduced effectiveness. Be sure to confirm the exact amount of fluid included in the treatment before making a reservation.

3. Post-treatment care pitfalls: Failing to apply a mask after treatment means half the effectiveness.

Within 24 hours after the hyaluronic acid injection, the skin enters a critical recovery period during which the injection sites have not yet fully closed. It is essential to maintain proper hydration and protect the skin from sunlight at this time; avoid applying makeup, using saunas, or engaging in intense physical activity. Reputable clinics usually provide post-treatment repair masks. If not provided, make sure to bring your own medical masks along.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Is the hyaluronic acid injection very painful?

Anesthetic is applied for over 30 minutes; the discomfort caused by the injection of the basic glow serum is similar to that of an ant bite and is generally tolerable for most people. The Rejuran injection can be slightly more painful (especially around the eyes), but if the doctor is skilled, the discomfort can be controlled. Those who are sensitive to pain may opt for the red box version that contains lidocaine.

Q2: How long does it take to see results after the treatment? And how long do these effects last?

With basic hydrotherapy, it takes only 1 to 3 days to notice an improvement in skin moisture; Rejuran and PDRN belong to the “regenerative” category, so it takes 2 to 4 weeks for the effects to become apparent, as the skin gradually becomes brighter from within. The effects of basic hydrotherapy last for 1 to 2 months, while those of Rejuran can last for 3 to 6 months.

Q3: Can hyaluronic acid injections be combined with other treatments?

Certainly. In fact, clinics in South Korea are very adept at “combined treatments.” Common combinations include: hyaluronic acid injections + Pico treatment (for brightening), hyaluronic acid injections + HIFU (for tightening), or hyaluronic acid injections + botulinum toxin (for controlling oil production and reducing Pores). However, it is recommended to consult a doctor first to develop a treatment plan tailored to your skin type – and avoid trying too many treatments at once.

Q4: Is it necessary to make an appointment to receive glow injections in South Korea?

It is highly recommended to make a reservation in advance. Popular Dermatology clinics in Myeongdong are usually fully booked, especially on weekends, and waiting in line on-site can take 2 to 3 hours. By making a reservation through platforms like BeautsGO, you can also secure preferential prices and avoid being charged extra at the clinic.

My conclusion

The cost-performance ratio of glow injections in Myeongdong is indeed much higher than that in China, especially for the Rejuran series. The local price in South Korea is almost half of the domestic price. If it’s your first time trying this treatment, I recommend starting with basic glow injections or the Rejuran 3+3 package. A single session costs around ¥915,000 to ¥250,000, and you will immediately notice a noticeable increase in skin moisture. If you are looking for long-term anti-aging effects, undergoing three sessions of the Rejuran PN package is the most reliable option.

If your budget is limited, salmon needle (PDRN) is a viable alternative to Rejuran, offering similarly excellent repair effects. Regardless of which option you choose, make sure to verify the authenticity of the product, the dosage of the injection, and the post-treatment care measures to avoid falling into the trap of low prices.
