Treatment Overview
Salmon DNA therapy is one of Korea’s most trusted regenerative skin booster treatments, widely recognized as the scientific foundation of Rejuran Healer. It uses purified polynucleotides (PN) extracted from salmon DNA, which are biocompatible with human skin and stimulate natural cell repair, collagen production, and dermal rejuvenation.
In Korea, Salmon DNA injections are commonly used for wrinkles, scars, enlarged pores, pigmentation, and overall skin aging. By repairing the skin from within, it helps restore a stronger dermal structure, improved elasticity, and long-lasting glow.
Purpose & Benefits
- Skin Repair: Heals damaged or thinning skin.
- Wrinkle Reduction: Improves fine lines and early creases.
- Collagen & Elastin Boost: Enhances skin elasticity and firmness.
- Scar Refinement: Smooths acne scars and enlarged pores.
- Brightening Effect: Corrects pigmentation and dull skin tone.
- Hydration Support: Improves skin texture and radiance.
- Preventive Anti-Aging: Strengthens skin against future aging.
