Hey Reader!

Last week, we talked about the trendy new skincare treatment, polynucleotide injections. And this week, we are covering what the science says you can realistically expect if you are considering a salmon sperm facial.

Clinical studies have shown that polynucleotide injections can significantly improve skin texture, firmness, and hydration. Users report a reduction in fine lines and an overall rejuvenated appearance.​

Typically, a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart yields the best results, with noticeable improvements appearing after the second or third session. Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months help sustain these benefits.​

A survey that interviewed over 200 Korean dermatologists who used it in their practice said most patients had much better recovery after in-office procedures like lasers and light therapies like radiofrequency and high-intensity focused ultrasound. So, if you are considering polynucleotide injections, ask your dermatologist if it makes sense to add it with another treatment to maximize your anti-aging benefits.
