Treatment Overview
Salmon DNA Skin Booster is a regenerative dermatology treatment using polynucleotides (PN) extracted from purified salmon DNA to repair, heal, and rejuvenate the skin. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers that focus on hydration or volume, Salmon DNA boosters stimulate fibroblasts, promote collagen and elastin production, and restore skin at the DNA level.
This category includes well-known PN-based treatments such as Rejuran Healer, Plinest, Juvelook, Plenhyage XL, Rejuran S, Rejuran i, and Rejuran HB. Each is formulated for different indications (healing, scars, wrinkles, hydration, pigmentation), but they all share the DNA repair foundation.
Purpose & Benefits
- DNA Repair & Regeneration: Restores damaged skin at the cellular level.
- Collagen & Elastin Stimulation: Improves firmness, elasticity, and skin thickness.
- Wrinkle Reduction: Softens fine lines and prevents premature aging.
- Scar Healing: Effective for acne scars, atrophic scars, and rough texture.
- Hydration: Enhances dermal water balance for plumper, healthier skin.
- Skin Brightening: Improves overall glow and tone.
- Barrier Strengthening: Protects fragile or sensitive skin against damage.
