Salmon Sperm Facial
The latest anti-aging treatment making headlines with Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Aniston, “Salmon Sperm Facial.”
These injections involve POLYNUCLEOTIDES. These remarkable molecules, when injected into the skin, not only promote youthful, hydrated, and smooth skin but also create optimal conditions for skin regeneration from within?! A polynucleotide is a chain (poly = many) of nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA...the instructions our cells need to build new cells).
Polynucleotides, also called PN or PDRN are an injectable, skin-boosting, regenerative treatment that has gained popularity recently. They offer a huge range of immediate, and longer term, skin-boosting benefits.
Polynucleotides provide hydration and plumping, act as powerful antioxidants, and stimulate fibroblast activity. These fibroblasts, which are essential for the skin's structure and elasticity, receive all the necessary ingredients to enhance their function. Polynucleotides not only improve the skin's appearance but also aid in tissue repair and possess anti-inflammatory properties, making them beneficial for wound healing.
How do polynucleotides work?
Similar to hyaluronic acid boosters like Profhilo and Seventy-Hyal, polynucleotides immediately hydrate the skin, creating a dewy look and soft volume. However, they offer even more benefits…
Polynucleotides stimulate fibroblast production, initiate tissue repair processes, reduce inflammation, regulate melanogenesis, and promote skin hydration. They regenerate the skin at a cellular level, improving texture, minimizing pores, and reducing pigmentation over time. The results depend on factors such as skin aging, diet, lifestyle, and the skin's ability to regenerate. Most people notice improvements within 2-4 weeks, with optimal results appearing about three months after completing the treatment.
This treatment provides an initial glow followed by long-term bio-remodeling, offering a double benefit.
About the salmon sperm...
Rest assured, no salmon sperm is injected or applied to your face! The DNA used to create polynucleotides was originally derived from salmon or trout sperm. The nucleus was removed, the DNA extracted, and then used to manufacture the polynucleotides. While the product does not directly contain fish products, it is derived from them, so it may not be suitable for those who are vegan, vegetarian, or have a fish allergy.
Where can you use polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides can be applied to both the body and face, including the neck, décolletage, delicate eye area, back of hands, abdomen, thighs, knees, arms, and areas with stretch marks. They enhance hydration, tissue elasticity, and tightness, and help rejuvenate the skin. Additionally, they can improve the appearance of lumpy or sunken scars, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, melasma, rosacea, general signs of aging, and even eyebrow and scalp hair loss.
