Rejuran: A Deep Dive into the Science Behind Polynucleotide Therapy

The Origins of Rejuran: A Korean Breakthrough
The "salmon sperm facial" or Rejuran, is a revolutionary cosmetic treatment from South Korea that has been in use for many years. The nickname, however, is misleading. Active ingredient, polynucleotide (PN), is extracted from salmon testicular tissue rather than salmon sperm. These high-quality extracts stimulate skin regeneration and are compatible with human tissues.
The Korean government introduced Rejuran as a medical-grade wound healing treatment. It quickly gained attention as a potential cosmetic ingredient due to its regenerative properties. Over the past decade, Rejuran has become a cornerstone of skin rejuvenation therapies, praised for its ability to address signs of ageing, improve skin elasticity, and repair damaged skin.
The Science Behind Polynucleotide from Salmon Testicular Tissue
The Polynucleotide (PN) in Rejuran is extracted from salmon DNA because of its remarkable structural similarity to human DNA. Salmon testicular tissue is an ideal source because of its purity and high concentration of DNA fragments. Once processed, these fragments become biologically active, promoting skin regeneration at a cellular level.
When injected into the skin, Polynucleotide revitalises fibroblasts, collagen producing cells, and other essential components of the skin's extracellular matrix. This enhances skin elasticity, hydration, and overall health while reducing fine lines and improving texture.
Rejuran's Unique Role in Skin Rejuvenation
Rejuran stands out in the crowded field of aesthetic medicine because it focuses on repairing the skin from within. Unlike traditional fillers or purely hydrating treatments, Rejuran works at a cellular level to:
Enhance collagen synthesis.
Promote tissue regeneration.
Strengthen the skin's barrier function.
This approach makes Rejuran especially effective for addressing delicate skin concerns, such as:
Enlarged pores.
Acne scars.
Redness and inflammation.
Rejuran in Practice: The Korean Approach to Beauty
In South Korea, Rejuran is often known as the "skin healer." It delivers subtle, natural-looking results that align with Korea's beauty philosophy of "less is more." Patients undergoing Rejuran treatments in Korean clinics report significant skin texture and quality improvements after several sessions, with minimal downtime.
Why Salmon Testicular Tissue?
Scientific evidence has proven molecules from salmon testicular tissue are compatible with human tissue. Salmon DNA has been shown to:
Increase the skin's regenerative capacity.
Reduce inflammation and oxidative stress.
Promote the production of glycosaminoglycans, essential for skin hydration.
The extraction process ensures that the Polynucleotide is purified and safe, minimising any risk of adverse reactions while maximising therapeutic benefits.
