Skin Rejuvenation with Salmon DNA

Introduction: Our Skin and Traces of Time

Our skin is our most valuable piece of clothing and our window to the outside world. However, time, environmental factors (sunlight, air pollution), stress, lifestyle habits and genetic inheritance can accelerate the aging process of our skin. Symptoms such as loss of elasticity, fine lines, wrinkles, lack of moisture, dull and lifeless appearance become more apparent over time. Fortunately, developments in the field of aesthetic medicine offer innovative solutions to slow down these signs of aging and restore the youthful glow to the skin. One of these solutions is the Salmon DNA treatment, which has become increasingly popular in recent years, and is often referred to as the “Youth Vaccine” .

As AuraDent Aesthetic Clinic, we aim to provide the best results to our clients by using the latest technologies and scientifically proven methods in Nicosia, North Cyprus. In this article, we will examine in detail what Salmon DNA treatment is, how it works, who it is suitable for and how we apply this treatment at AuraDent.

🧬 What is Salmon DNA (Youth Vaccine)?

Salmon DNA treatment is a mesotherapy method that contains biologically active substances used for skin rejuvenation and renewal. Its basis is formed by polynucleotides obtained from salmon sperm (milk) and hyaluronic acid, one of the natural building blocks of the skin. The synergy of these two powerful components activates the skin's self-repair and renewal mechanisms.

Origin and Ingredients: Salmon and Hyaluronic Acid

Why Salmon? Salmon DNA has structurally very similar properties to human DNA. This similarity allows it to be easily recognized by our skin and interact at the cellular level. Polynucleotides (PDRN - Polydeoxyribonucleotide) obtained from salmon DNA are the basic building blocks that support cell renewal and repair.

The Role of Hyaluronic Acid: Hyaluronic acid, another important component of the treatment, is a molecule found naturally in our skin and has the capacity to hold up to a thousand times its own weight in water. It provides the skin's moisture balance, increases its fullness and gives a smooth appearance. Hyaluronic acid in the salmon DNA treatment provides an immediate intensive moisture boost to the skin and increases the effectiveness of polynucleotides.

How Does It Work? Cellular Regeneration Mechanism

When administered via subcutaneous microinjections, salmon DNA has a dual effect:

1. Intensive Moisturizing and Revitalizing: Hyaluronic acid penetrates into the deep layers of the skin from the moment it is applied and provides intense moisturizing. This helps the skin look fuller, more vibrant and brighter.
2. Cellular Repair and Regeneration: Polynucleotides stimulate cells called fibroblasts, which are responsible for the production of collagen and elastin fibers, the basic building blocks of the skin. By encouraging the resynthesis of these fibers, which decrease over time, they improve the skin's firmness, elasticity and overall structure. They also contribute to the repair of damaged cells and the strengthening of the skin's natural defense mechanisms. Thanks to their antioxidant properties, they protect against damage caused by free radicals.

  🤔 Who is Suitable for Salmon DNA Treatment?

Salmon DNA treatment appeals to a wide audience who are observing signs of aging on their skin or want to improve their skin quality. It can offer an effective solution especially for the following situations:

Reasons for Choice According to Skin Problems

• 💧 Moisture Loss and Dryness: It restores the moisture lost by the skin, providing a healthier and more vibrant appearance.
• 📉 Loss of Elasticity and Sagging: It increases the firmness and elasticity of the skin by triggering the production of collagen and elastin.
• 〰️ Fine Lines and Wrinkles: It is especially effective in reducing the appearance of lines at the initial level.
• 🌫️ Dull, Pale and Lifeless Appearance: It gives brightness and glow to the skin and helps to even out skin tone.
• ☀️ Sun Damage and Blemish Proneness: May help repair sun damage and lighten the appearance of blemishes.
• 🩹 Acne Scars: It can improve the appearance of post-acne scars by increasing the skin's self-renewal capacity.
• 👁️ Eye Contour Problems: It can be used as a supportive treatment to reduce under-eye circles, bags and fine lines.
• 👋 Hand, Neck and Décolleté Rejuvenation: It can be applied not only to the face but also to improve skin quality in these areas where signs of aging are frequently seen.

Age Groups and Skin Types

Although salmon DNA treatment is generally recommended from the age of 30 onwards when signs of aging begin, it can also be started at an earlier age (mid-20s) to improve skin quality and prevent aging. It is a suitable treatment option for all age groups and all skin types (dry, oily, combination, sensitive) according to the needs of the skin.

However, as with every treatment, a detailed consultation with our specialist doctors at our AuraDent clinic before the Salmon DNA application is critical to determine whether the treatment is suitable for you and to clarify your expectations.

✨ Salmon DNA Application Process at AuraDent

At AuraDent, we are committed to providing a personalized treatment experience that is tailored to each client’s unique needs and skin type. Our Salmon DNA application process includes the following steps:

Consultation and Personalized Planning

Before starting treatment, you will have a comprehensive consultation with one of our specialist doctors. In this consultation;

• Your skin type and current skin problems are analyzed.
• Your medical history is evaluated.
• Your expectations from the treatment are listened to.
• It is decided whether salmon DNA treatment is the most suitable option for you.
• A personalized treatment plan (number of sessions, intervals, etc.) is created for you and detailed information about the process is provided.

Implementation Stages

1. Cleaning: The area to be treated (usually the face, neck, décolleté or hands) is carefully cleaned with special antiseptic solutions.
2. Anesthesia: In order to increase the comfort of the procedure, a local anesthetic cream is applied to the application area and waited for approximately 15-20 minutes for it to take effect.
3. Injection: Our specialist doctor injects a special mixture containing Salmon DNA and hyaluronic acid into the middle layer of the skin (mesoderm) in small doses using very fine needles according to the determined plan. This process is performed with the mesotherapy technique. Injections are made at certain intervals according to the needs of the skin.

Processing Time and Feelings

The salmon DNA injection procedure usually takes 20 to 30 minutes , depending on the size of the area to be treated. Thanks to the anesthetic cream, discomfort during the procedure is minimal. Most of our clients describe the procedure as a slight stinging sensation.

🗓️ Number and Frequency of Sessions

Recommended Treatment Protocol

To maximize the effectiveness of Salmon DNA treatment , multiple sessions are generally recommended. The ideal number and frequency of sessions will vary depending on the individual’s skin type, age, and desired results, but a typical protocol is as follows:

• A course of 3 to 5 sessions, usually scheduled at intervals of 1 to 4 weeks, is applied.
• After the first course is completed, reminder sessions may be recommended every 6 months or once a year to ensure the permanence of the results obtained.

Our experts at AuraDent will determine the most appropriate treatment plan for you during your consultation.

Time to See Results and Their Permanence

The effects of the treatment vary from person to person, but the first positive effects are usually noticeable after the first or second session . Moisturization, brightness and revitalization of the skin are the first observed results. Structural improvements such as tightening and reduction of fine lines resulting from increased collagen and elastin production become more apparent as the treatment is completed and in the following weeks.

The durability of the treatment also depends on individual factors (age, skin structure, lifestyle, sun exposure). The effects usually last for 6 to 12 months . It is possible to extend this period with regular reminder sessions.

🔬 Scientific Basis and Proven Benefits of Salmon DNA Therapy

The popularity of salmon DNA therapy is not only due to its visible results but also to its scientifically based effectiveness.

The Role of Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides (PDRN) are biological molecules that play a critical role in cell repair processes. When injected into the skin, they:

• They accelerate the repair of damaged cells and tissues.
• They stimulate fibroblast activity, promoting the synthesis of new collagen and elastin.
• They increase tissue nutrition and oxygenation by supporting the formation of blood vessels (angiogenesis).
• They have anti-inflammatory effects.
• With their strong antioxidant properties, they protect the skin against the harmful effects of free radicals.

Effect of Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid provides instant plumpness and smoothness by increasing the skin's moisture retention capacity. It also creates an ideal environment for polynucleotides to better penetrate the skin and show their effectiveness.

Clinical Studies and Observed Results

Clinical studies and observations show that Salmon DNA treatment provides the following benefits:

• ✅ Increased Skin Moisture: The skin gains a fuller, more moist and healthier appearance.
• ✅ Improved Skin Elasticity and Firmness: Skin feels tighter and more lifted.
• ✅ Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Significant reduction in fine lines, especially around the eyes and around the mouth.
• ✅ Brighter and More Luminous Skin Tone: The dull and tired appearance is replaced by a vibrant and bright skin.
• ✅ Improvement of Skin Structure: The skin gains a smoother and healthier texture.
• ✅ Cellular Protection and Repair: The skin's resistance to environmental damage increases.

⚠️ Possible Side Effects and Risk Factors

Salmon DNA treatment is generally considered a safe and minimally invasive procedure. Since the substances used (polynucleotides and hyaluronic acid) are biocompatible, the risk of allergic reactions is quite low. However, as with any injection procedure, some temporary side effects may occur:

Common Temporary Effects

• Redness: Mild redness may occur at the injection sites, but usually disappears within a few hours.
• Mild Swelling or Edema: A slight swelling may be observed in the area after the application, but it usually goes away within 1-2 days.
• Bruising: Small bruises may occur at the needle entry points. This is especially common in people with sensitive skin or those taking blood thinners. It usually disappears on its own within a few days.
• Sensitivity: Temporary sensitivity may be felt in the application area.

These side effects are usually mild and short-lived. Following your doctor's recommendations after the application will help these effects pass more quickly.

Situations to be Considered

Salmon DNA treatment may not be recommended or special precautions may be required in the following situations:

• Pregnancy or breastfeeding period
• Active skin infection or inflammation (herpes, etc.)
• Uncontrolled diabetes
• Blood clotting disorders or use of blood thinners
• Known allergy to its ingredients (very rare)
• Those receiving cancer treatment

Therefore, it is very important that you provide your doctor with complete information about your health condition and the medications you are using during the pre-treatment consultation.

💧☀️ Post Salmon DNA Treatment Care Recommendations

To get the best results from the treatment and minimize possible side effects, there are some points you should pay attention to after the application:

What Should Be Considered in the First 24 Hours?

• Avoid touching, rubbing or massaging the application area.
• Avoid wearing makeup.
