Cosa promette
Skin biostimulation and regeneration: hydration, skin quality, support to healing.
Cosa dice l'evidenza
Several clinical studies (often small, sometimes industry-sponsored) report improvements in skin elasticity and hydration after injectable treatments. Heterogeneous protocols and endpoints; larger independent RCTs are needed.

Literature on polynucleotides and skin (PubMed search) · review
Starting point for the ongoing review; the grade will be assigned at closure.
PubMed ↗
Meccanismo
DNA fragments thought to act as adenosine A2A receptor agonists, stimulating fibroblasts, collagen synthesis and angiogenesis; a local nucleotide 'salvage' effect.
Sicurezza
Generally favourable profile in aesthetic use; transient local events (erythema, swelling). Medical procedure: professionals only.
Contesto dosaggio
Injectable protocols vary by concentration and number of sessions; no universally validated standard in independent literature.
Nota dal campo
It's one of the most marketed molecules in aesthetics. We're closing the review of independent sources before assigning a grade: on principle we don't publish a letter we can't defend with the studies.
