Plinest is an injectable, ultra-purified polynucleotide (DNA fragments extracted from fish) to improve skin quality and texture.
It works by stimulating cell regeneration, collagen and elastin production, and improving microcirculation to reduce wrinkles, acne scars, dark circles, and thinning hair.
Plinest is manufactured by the Italian pharmaceutical company Mastelli, and the treatments are popular for their natural approach to skin rejuvenation.
How it works
-
- Polynucleotides are natural building blocks of DNA that stimulate fibroblasts, which produce collagen and elastin.
- This leads to improved skin quality, hydration, and a more youthful appearance.
- It also enhances blood flow to the skin, improving microcirculation and reducing puffiness and dark circles.
- Plinest has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
What it’s used for
- Skin Rejuvenation: Addresses fine lines, wrinkles, and overall skin quality on the face, neck, and décolletage.
- Scar Treatment: Helps remodel areas with high fibrous content, such as acne scars.
- Eye Area: Improves dark circles and puffiness around the eyes.
- Hair Growth: Can improve scalp skin quality and increase hair growth for those experiencing hair thinning.
Considerations
- Fish Allergy: Plinest should not be used on anyone with a fish allergy due to its fish-derived origin.
- Synergistic Effects: It is often used in combination with other treatments like lasers, PRP, fillers, and microneedling to create a synergistic effect.
- Procedure: It is administered via a series of micro-injections into the skin.
