What are Polynucleotides (Salmon DNA) &  Exosomes? 

Introduction to Exosomes

Exosomes are minute, extracellular vesicles that are released by cells and play a vital role in intercellular communication through the transfer of cellular materials.

 

What are Exosomes

Exosomes are cell-derived vesicles that are present in many, if not all, eukaryotic fluids. They are small membranous structures, approximately 30-150 nanometers in size, and contain proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which they can transport between cells.

 

Role of Exosomes in Cellular Communication

Exosomes facilitate cellular communication by transferring their contents—DNA, RNA, proteins, and lipids—to recipient cells. This exchange of materials allows cells to alter their state and function, influencing various physiological and pathological processes.

 

Therapeutic Potential of Exosomes

Owing to their ability to activate regenerative pathways and promote wound healing, the therapeutic potential of exosomes is vast. They are being observed for their potential in treating diverse conditions from neurodegenerative diseases to cancer and skin aging.

 

Combining Morpheus8 Microneedling with Exosomes

The combination of Morpjheus8 Microneedling with exosomes has emerged as an innovative therapeutic approach in dermatology and aesthetics.

 

Concept Behind Morpheus8 Microneedling with Exosomes

The concept behind this combination lies in harnessing the regenerative properties of exosomes and the collagen-inducing effects of Morpheus8 Microneedling. Exosomes augment the Morpheus8 Microneedling effects by enhancing the skin's healing and regenerative processes.

 

Role of Exosomes in Enhancing Morpheus8 Microneedling Results

Exosomes, due to their regenerative impact, can enhance the results of Morpheus8 Microneedling by healing the created micro-injuries more effectively. They modulate cellular functions, foster rejuvenation, and promote skin tightening and brightening, leading to an overall improvement in skin health.

Introduction to Polynucleotide / Salmon DNA 

Salmon DNA, also known as polynucleotide extract, is derived from salmon sperm. While it may sound unusual, this ingredient has been making waves in the skincare industry for its impressive regenerative properties. Proponents claim it can dramatically improve hydration, boost elasticity, and rejuvenate the skin.

 

Polynucleotides Important for Skin Health

Polynucleotides are chains of nucleotides – the building blocks of DNA and RNA. These molecules play a crucial role in:

  • Cellular repair

  • Collagen production

  • Improving skin elasticity

As we age, our natural polynucleotide levels decrease, leading to sagging skin, fine lines, and a dull complexion. This is where Salmon DNA treatments come in.

How Salmon DNA with Morpheus8 Microneedling Works

During a Salmon DNA Morpheus8 Microneedling session, tiny needles create micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These controlled injuries trigger the body’s natural healing process, while the Salmon DNA serum penetrates deep into the skin. The polynucleotides within the serum then work to:

  • Stimulate collagen production for firmer, more elastic skin

  • Accelerate cellular turnover for a brighter, more even complexion

  • Deeply hydrate the skin, leaving it soft, supple, and radiant

 

There is Science to Back It Up!

Yes! Studies have shown that Salmon DNA can deliver impressive results:

  • A study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology found that Salmon DNA significantly improved skin elasticity and firmness within 30 days.

  • Research in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences revealed that Salmon DNA promotes collagen synthesis and enhances cellular regeneration.

Potential Benefits of Salmon DNA with Morpheus8 Microneedling

  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles

  • Improves skin tone and texture

  • Boosts hydration for a plumper appearance

  • Minimizes acne scars and other imperfections

  • Tightens skin/elasticity
