How the Chanel Injection works

The Chanel Injection is a Korean nickname for NCTF 135HA, a product from Filorga in France. The name is marketing shorthand for its luxurious glow and has no connection to the fashion house. It combines non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid with more than 50 ingredients, including vitamins, amino acids, minerals, coenzymes and antioxidants. Placed in the superficial dermis, it hydrates immediately and supports the skin's own renewal, giving a brighter, dewier look. Because the hyaluronic acid is not cross-linked, it is absorbed relatively quickly, which is why a short series and periodic maintenance give the best result.

How Rejuran Healer works

Rejuran Healer, made by Pharma Research in Korea, contains purified polynucleotides from salmon DNA. Injected across the face, PN supports the skin's natural repair, helps calm inflammation and improves elasticity and hydration. Over a series, skin tends to look thicker, more even and less reactive, with softer fine lines and refined pores. It suits skin that needs strengthening rather than just a glow.

Choose the Chanel Injection if…

  • Your skin is dull, tired or dehydrated but otherwise healthy
  • You want visible radiance within days, for example before an event
  • You prefer a slightly lower cost per session
  • You want a nourishing boost as part of a glass-skin routine

Choose Rejuran Healer if…

  • Your skin is sensitive, red or easily irritated
  • Pores, fine lines or shallow scars bother you
  • Your skin feels thin or fragile
  • You want improvements in skin health that build and hold

Can you combine them?

Yes. Rejuran strengthens the skin while the Chanel Injection adds hydration and glow, so many glass-skin plans include both, alternated across sessions a few weeks apart or used in one visit as your doctor advises. Rejuran also features in our Glass Skin Package(from ₩359,000) with skin Botox and a soothing finish.

How our doctors decide

Your doctor looks at whether your skin mainly lacks radiance and hydration, or whether it is reactive, thin or textured. Healthy but dull skin points to the Chanel Injection; reactive or fragile skin points to Rejuran. Many people start with Rejuran to strengthen the skin, then add the Chanel Injection closer to an event for extra radiance. If you are visiting for a short time, your doctor will explain what a single session of each can achieve.

Neither is injected during pregnancy or breastfeeding, over active infection, or without review if you take blood thinners; tell your doctor about any fish allergy before Rejuran. Read how clinics approach glass skin, browse more comparisons, or book a consultation and a licensed doctor will recommend the booster that suits your skin.
