Polynucleotide Treatment

Polynucleotides are long-chain DNA components sourced from salmon, celebrated for their ability to boost skin regeneration. They work by stimulating collagen, enhancing hydration, reducing inflammation, and supporting cell health, leading to improved skin texture and vitality.
Polynucleotide injections can be paired with other treatments, especially energy-based options, to maximize skin rejuvenation. This combination can reduce inflammation, support recovery, and provide longer-lasting skin improvements.
