Polynucleotide (PN-HPT) Skin Regeneration
Plenhyage™ Polynucleotide Skin Booster – JB & Near Singapore
Plenhyage™ is a polynucleotide (PN-HPT) gel skin booster, available at our Johor Bahru clinic. Made from highly purified salmon DNA fragments, it is designed to support the skin’s natural repair processes. This non-surgical, doctor-led treatment may help improve skin quality, texture, and early signs of ageing like fine lines. It is suitable for adults seeking to support skin health, but it is not a filler and does not add volume. A full medical assessment is required, and results vary.
At Medi Clinic JB, we provide this procedure for residents of Johor Bahru and for patients travelling from Singapore. Our clinic is a short drive from the Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints, easily reached from areas like Taman Pelangi, Mount Austin, and Iskandar Puteri. We focus on a careful, doctor-led approach. Many Singaporean clients cross the border to see our doctor because they feel their skin is truly cared for. Our JB patients often tell us they want honest timelines, not big promises.
We believe that careful skin assessment, safe injection technique, and disciplined review are most important. This treatment is about supporting your skin’s underlying health over time. If you tried other places and felt rushed, we will slow down, assess carefully, and plan what suits your skin. Our goal is to build a lasting plan with you, based on steady, consistent care and clear explanations, without any hard selling.

How Plenhyage Supports Your Skin
A Scientific Approach to Skin Quality
Plenhyage works differently from traditional fillers. It is a biostimulator, which means it sends signals to encourage your skin’s own cells. The polynucleotide (PN-HPT) gel is made of highly purified DNA fragments from salmon. These fragments are biocompatible and resorbable.
The process is based on three main actions:
The process is based on three main actions:
- Fibroblast Signalling: The PN fragments send signals that encourage fibroblast cells to be more active. Fibroblasts are responsible for producing collagen and elastin, which are key to skin structure.
- ECM Support: It helps support the extracellular matrix (ECM), the structure that holds skin cells together. This can improve skin density and firmness over time.
- Hydration: Polynucleotides have a high water-binding capacity. This helps to maintain better water balance in the skin, which can improve its glow and texture.
- Plenhyage XL Medium (20 mg/mL PN): For delicate areas like the under-eye region or for early skin concerns.
- Plenhyage XL Strong (25 mg/mL PN): For areas with deeper lines, scars, or where more intensive support is needed.
Personalised Treatment Areas
Who It May Help & Areas We Can Address
Our doctor in JB will assess your skin to see if Plenhyage is a suitable option for you. This treatment can be part of a plan for patients from communities like Setia Tropika, Kempas, and Larkin who want careful, doctor-led care.
Plenhyage may help support skin with concerns such as:
Plenhyage may help support skin with concerns such as:
- Early Laxity and Fine Lines: It can support skin firmness and may soften the appearance of fine lines on the cheeks and lower face.
- Dullness and Uneven Texture: The treatment may help improve skin hydration and smoothness, contributing to a healthier glow.
- Enlarged Pores or Roughness: By supporting skin quality and structure, it may help refine the appearance of pores.
- Scar Quality Support: As part of a broader scar management plan, it can support the quality and texture of acne scars or other marks. It is not a stand-alone scar cure.
- Full Face: For overall skin quality improvement.
- Under-eye Region: For delicate skin quality support. The doctor will decide if this is suitable for you.
- Neck & Décolleté: To address fine lines and skin texture in these areas.
- Selected Body Areas: Such as the hands or areas with stretch marks, as agreed with the doctor.
The Patient Journey
Protocol, Comfort, and What to Expect
Your Plenhyage journey at Medi Clinic JB is a structured process. We guide patients from Johor and visitors from Singapore through each stage with professional care.
- Medical Consultation: Your journey begins with a private consultation with our doctor. The doctor will listen to your concerns, examine your skin, and review your medical history to ensure you are a suitable candidate. We set clear, realistic expectations.
- Treatment Plan & Consent: The doctor will propose a personalised plan, including the number of sessions and the Plenhyage strength to be used. All details, including potential side effects, will be explained before you provide informed consent.
- Preparation and Comfort: On treatment day, your skin will be cleansed. A topical numbing cream is usually applied to the treatment areas to make the procedure more comfortable. We want to ensure your experience is as pleasant as possible.
- The Procedure: The doctor uses a fine needle to inject small amounts of the Plenhyage gel into the skin. This is often done using a micro-droplet or micro-papule technique, creating small bumps (papules) that spread under the skin.
- Post-Treatment and Aftercare: After the session, the injection points will look like small bumps, and there might be some redness. This is normal and usually settles in hours to a few days. We will provide simple aftercare instructions, such as gentle cleansing and sun protection.

A Focus on Patient Safety
Patient safety is our priority at Medi Clinic JB. Plenhyage is a medical device with a CE mark in the EU, made with highly purified DNA fragments from salmon. The purification process ensures it is biocompatible.

It is important to share your full medical history during the consultation.
After the treatment, it is normal to see some temporary effects as the skin responds. These are usually mild and short-lived:

Timeline, Results, and Maintenance
Understanding the timeline for Plenhyage is important for a good experience. This treatment supports your skin’s natural processes, which take time. We make sure our patients from Johor Bahru and Singapore have clear, realistic expectations.

- Medium-Term (Weeks to Months): The main benefits develop over weeks to months. As the polynucleotides signal your skin cells, you may notice gradual improvements in skin texture, firmness, and overall quality.

Frequently Asked Questions About Plenhyage™ PN-HPT
Here are answers to common questions about Plenhyage. For personalised medical advice, please arrange a consultation with our doctor.
What is Plenhyage vs a HA filler?
Plenhyage is a polynucleotide (PN-HPT) skin booster, not a filler. It supports skin repair and quality by signalling your own cells. A hyaluronic acid (HA) filler like Belotero is designed to restore lost volume or shape facial contours. Plenhyage aims for better skin health, while fillers add volume.
Is Plenhyage a safe treatment?
Plenhyage is a medical device with a CE mark. The polynucleotides are from salmon DNA and are highly purified to be biocompatible. Safety depends on a doctor’s assessment to ensure you are suitable, and on correct injection technique. Like any injection, there are risks of redness, swelling, or bruising, which are usually temporary.
How many sessions are needed?
A typical starting course is 2 to 3 sessions, with each session spaced about 3 to 4 weeks apart. This allows the skin time to respond. For maintenance, the doctor may suggest a single session every 6 to 9 months. The exact plan will be personalised by the doctor based on your skin condition and goals. Results vary.
Can it help the under-eye area?
Plenhyage may be considered for improving the skin quality of the delicate under-eye area. Plenhyage XL Medium is often used for this purpose. However, suitability must be carefully assessed by a doctor. It helps with skin texture and fine lines, but it is not a treatment for eye bags caused by fat pads or deep tear troughs that need filler.
When will I see changes & how long do they last?
Improvements are gradual. A fresher look may appear in the first few weeks due to better hydration. More noticeable changes in texture and firmness can build over weeks to months as your skin produces new collagen. The effects can last for several months, but this varies. Maintenance sessions are advised to sustain the results.
What is the downtime and aftercare?
Downtime is minimal. You can expect small bumps (papules) at the injection sites, which usually settle within 24-48 hours. Some redness, mild swelling, or bruising might also occur and can last a few days. Aftercare is simple: follow the doctor’s advice on cleansing, avoid harsh products, and use sun protection.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Plenhyage works well as part of a personalised skin programme. It can be combined with treatments like Rejuran PN, NEWEST (PN+HA), or Belotero HA fillers. It can also complement energy-based devices or microneedling. The doctor will advise on the correct timing and spacing between different procedures to ensure a safe and effective plan.
I’m from Singapore, how can we plan the sessions?
We regularly assist patients from Singapore. We can schedule your consultation and first treatment on the same day if appropriate. Follow-up sessions are planned 3-4 weeks apart, and we can arrange appointments to fit your travel schedule. Our JB clinic is accessible from the checkpoint, and we provide clear instructions for your visits.
Is the treatment comfortable?
Comfort levels vary. The procedure involves small injections. To make it more comfortable, a strong topical numbing cream is usually applied to the skin before starting. Most patients find the procedure manageable. The doctor will ensure you are as comfortable as possible throughout the session.
