The latest trend in medicine is shifting from conventional fillers such as hyaluronic acid to collagen and skin boosters. These innovative treatments promote natural skin renewal through targeted injections either directly into the skin or subcutaneously. While polylactate (Sculptra) and autologous blood (PRP) have been known for many years to stimulate collagen formation, there are now promising developments that support skin regeneration at a cellular level. The new substances emerging in aesthetic medicine are polynucleotides and exosomes.

Salmon DNA – the new super trend from Korea

It was in all the American magazines: Jennifer Aniston had salmon DNA injected to treat her bags under her eyes – and successfully so. Since then, this treatment, which is based on polynucleotides, has gone viral worldwide and conquered aesthetic medicine. Studies show that certain parts of cellular genetic information can lead to remarkable skin rejuvenation. The segments extracted from DNA are called polynucleotides. They are fundamental building blocks of life and play a crucial role in cell regeneration, the immune system as well as intestinal health. Their regenerative effect has now also been discovered for aesthetic medicine, where they are used in the form of an injectable gel. Polynucleotides improve the hydration of the skin and eliminate free radicals, the main cause of skin ageing. They promote the growth of connective tissue cells and support the production of the body's own collagen and elastic fibers. This stimulation of natural cell regeneration leads to improved skin quality and elasticity, making the skin appear more radiant and rejuvenated. The treatment takes around 30 minutes and is virtually painless. If desired, it can be carried out in an ultra-short twilight sleep. For optimal results, the treatment should be performed 3-4 times at intervals of 2-3 weeks and then repeated every three months for maintenance. As this is a regenerative therapy in which the body itself becomes active, visible results can be expected after 2-3 months.

In addition to Jennifer Aniston, other international stars are also turning to this new concept of innovative skin rejuvenation – including members of the famous Kardashian family as well as Kate. In the beauty scene, the so-called salmon DNA treatment is considered an insider tip for visibly regenerated, radiant skin. The Kardashians are known for choosing only the highest-quality treatments – and rely on REJURAN® from Korea, one of the most advanced salmon DNA therapies worldwide. Naturally, we also work with this trending substance at BEAUTYCLINIC.

Polynucleotides

The areas of application for polynucleotides are diverse and range from the face, scalp, décolleté and neck to the sensitive skin around the eyes. Treatment with these new, injectable polynucleotides offers a natural way of rejuvenating and improving the skin by stimulating the body's own processes. In contrast to fillers, only biomaterials that are ecologically sound and sustainable are injected.

 

FAQs on the topic Salmon DNA

What are polynucleotides?

Polynucleotides are special proteins that naturally occur in every living cell. Products used in aesthetics are derived from salmon DNA, as they are highly biocompatible. Allergic reactions and intolerances are extremely rare.

Polynucleotides act as powerful biostimulators, increasing skin hydration and gradually improving skin firmness and elasticity in the days and weeks after treatment. They are also effective in treating inflammation and scars. As they are based on biological material, their use is considered sustainable.

How do biostimulators with polynucleotides work?

Biostimulators with polynucleotides stimulate skin renewal and improve overall skin structure. They bind water and provide protection against free radicals (oxygen compounds known to accelerate skin aging). When injected into the skin, they stimulate connective tissue regeneration. The skin produces more collagen and elastin and remodels itself, becoming visibly smoother and more elastic within a few weeks.

How does wrinkle treatment with polynucleotides work?

Polynucleotides are injected as a gel mixed with hyaluronic acid, which is why an initial effect is visible immediately after treatment. However, the full biostimulating effect develops over the following weeks.

The treatment is performed on an outpatient basis and usually involves no downtime. You can return to your daily activities immediately. Depending on the treatment area, the procedure takes approximately 20–40 minutes. Very fine needles are used, so the treatment may be slightly uncomfortable but is rarely painful. If desired, it can be performed under a very short twilight sedation.

Polynucleotides also provide excellent results for acne scars and dry, keratinized skin. Depending on the condition, one or more sessions at intervals of 2–4 weeks may be required.

Polynucleotides – suitable for which skin?

Polynucleotide treatments are suitable even for younger skin from around the age of 30, helping to address early signs of aging or enlarged pores while improving overall skin quality. Polynucleotides act as effective antioxidants and help prevent premature skin aging.

They are also highly effective for older patients, sagging skin, and deeper wrinkles – especially in the cheek and chin area (marionette lines). The skin often appears fresher and rejuvenated within a few days. Skin firmness and contour improve, with further enhancement over the following weeks. Depending on the treatment goal, 2–3 sessions at intervals of a few weeks may be recommended.

How often should the treatment be performed?

For optimal results, we recommend an initial series of 4 treatments spaced 2–3 weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 3 months. Unlike traditional fillers that deliver immediate results, polynucleotide treatments require some patience, with the best results visible after 2–3 months.

What should I consider after treatment, and what are the risks?

Polynucleotides are generally well tolerated. The most common side effects are related to the injection site, such as redness, swelling, or bruising. These are usually mild and resolve within a few days. More serious side effects, such as allergic reactions or infections, are very rare. All risks are thoroughly discussed during the consultation prior to treatment.

After treatment, you may cool the skin if needed. Avoid sports, sauna visits, and sunbeds for a few days. Consistent sun protection with SPF 50 is recommended, along with a hydrating serum.

When will I see the first results?

Results are typically visible within a few weeks and can last up to 12 months. Polynucleotides interact with specific receptors in skin cells, promoting regeneration and the production of new collagen and elastin (biostimulation). This leads to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

Which treatments can be combined with polynucleotides?

Suitable combination treatments depend on the individual skin condition and desired outcome. Polynucleotide treatments are often combined with wrinkle injections, Morpheus8, ultrasound treatments, chemical peels, laser treatments, or Profhilo, as combination therapies often deliver the best results.

What is REJURAN and what makes it special?

REJURAN is a high-quality skin regeneration treatment from Korea based on purified salmon DNA (polynucleotides). It supports natural skin cell repair, improves skin structure, and promotes a healthy, radiant complexion. REJURAN is considered one of the most researched polynucleotide products worldwide.

How does REJURAN differ from other salmon DNA products?

The key difference lies in the quality, purity, and stability of the polynucleotides. REJURAN uses highly purified, biocompatible polynucleotides from Korean research and medicine. Many other salmon DNA products contain less stable or less refined substances.

Why is REJURAN considered a premium treatment?

REJURAN was originally developed for medical tissue repair and has been successfully used in aesthetic dermatology for many years. Its specialized production ensures very high purity and excellent skin compatibility, allowing for particularly natural results.

What is the difference between REJURAN and traditional skin boosters?

While traditional skin boosters mainly contain hyaluronic acid for hydration, REJURAN uses polynucleotides that actively support skin regeneration and cellular repair. This not only hydrates the skin but also improves overall skin quality in the long term.

Why is REJURAN currently one of the most popular skin boosters worldwide?

REJURAN originates from innovative Korean aesthetic medicine, which is considered a global trendsetter. What makes it unique is that it not only hydrates the skin but also activates natural skin regeneration, enabling particularly natural and long-lasting results.

How much does a treatment with polynucleotide injectables (PN therapy) cost?

For optimal results, we recommend 3–4 treatments spaced 2–3 weeks apart.
