Polynucleotides (PN) Skin Booster encourages cell regeneration and boosts collagen production to improve skin texture, elasticity, and hydration, and minimise acne scars.
Polynucleotides (PN) Skin Booster encourages cell regeneration and boosts collagen production to improve skin texture, elasticity, and hydration, and minimise acne scars.
PN Skin Boosters are injectable treatments containing polynucleotides (PNs), which are essentially short fragments of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) derived from salmon DNA.
Stimulates the skin's natural healing process at a cellular level to regenerate and repair the skin.
Derived from biocompatible polynucleotides, making it safe and well-tolerated for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Tailored to individual skin concerns, allowing adjustments in placements for optimal results.
Achieves effects that can last up to 12 months after completing a full protocol.

It’s often confusing as PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) and PN (Polynucleotide) are used interchangeably!
Both PDRN and PN are DNA-based skin rejuvenation ingredients derived from salmon DNA, well known for their regenerative and healing properties.
The key difference lies in their purity, concentration, and depth of effect.
You can refer to the chart for more differences!
| PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) | PN (Polynucleotide) | |
|---|---|---|
| Compounds | Short-polymeric molecules | Long-polymeric molecules |
| Size / Molecular Weight | 350 kDa | 1000 kDa |
| Nucleotide Content | 1.9mg/mL | 20.0mg/mL |
| 3D Scaffold Structure | No | Yes |
| Use / Administration | Topical skincare products | Injectable skin boosters |
The recommended treatment interval for PN Skin Booster can vary depending on individual needs and desired results. Typically, a series of 2-3 sessions spaced 2-4 weeks apart is recommended, followed by maintenance sessions every 6 months.
You may experience some mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, but these usually resolve within 2-3 days.
Our team will go through a registration process with you to collect basic details and understand your skin concerns.
Your skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove makeup, oil, and impurities to prepare the skin for treatment.
Photos are taken to document your current skin condition and referenced during the doctor’s consultation.
A topical numbing cream is applied to minimise discomfort during the procedure.
Our doctor will discuss your concerns, goals, and medical history to ensure the treatment is tailored to your needs.
PN Skin Booster is administered via manual injection or an injector gun to target your areas of concern.
A calming sheet mask is applied to soothe the skin. Our team will advise you on what to do and expect in the next few days.
PN Skin Booster is not a traditional dermal filler. Rather than adding volume, it works as a skin healer and biostimulator, using polynucleotide (PN) molecules to repair and regenerate the skin from within.
PN Skin Booster treatments often involve a series of small injections, which may cause some discomfort similar to a brief pinching or stinging sensation, typically managed well with a topical anaesthetic. Most patients find the procedure tolerable.
PN Skin Booster is generally suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. As it is made from biocompatible polynucleotides, it has an excellent safety profile and the risk of allergic reactions is low. However, it is always best to consult with a professional to determine if PN Skin Booster is appropriate for your specific skin concerns and type, especially if you have any underlying skin conditions or sensitivities.
Aftercare following PN Skin Booster treatment is crucial to ensure optimal results and minimize side effects. Patients should avoid direct sun exposure, apply broad-spectrum sunscreen, and keep the treated area moisturized.
Additionally, it’s important to avoid heat exposure, including saunas, steam rooms, and intense exercise for at least 3 days to prevent increased redness, swelling, or even bleeding.
The use of gentle skincare products and the avoidance of harsh exfoliants or active ingredients are recommended during the recovery period to help reduce skin irritation. Adhering to the practitioner’s aftercare instructions can help maintain the treatment’s benefits and prolong the results.
PN Skin Booster can be combined with treatments like Pico Laser, Morpheus8, Dermal Fillers and HIFU for enhanced results. For acne scars, Morpheus8 and PN Skin Booster (Scar) are a powerful combination that remodels deeper skin structures and tightens the skin, while working on a cellular level to regenerate and heal the tissue, delivering a more comprehensive and longer-lasting improvement in acne scars and skin texture.
A qualified practitioner can recommend the best combination based on your needs.
Patient will likely notice small “mosquito bite” bumps (papules) at the injection sites, which are normal and typically subside within 2-3 days as the product is absorbed into the skin. Minor bruising, redness, or swelling may also occur but usually fades within a few days. It is also important to adhere to proper post treatment care which our team at Astria have compiled and will be given to all our patients.
