Hello beautiful people, here is a tip of the day about the magic of salmon DNA. Static lines are not only about movement, they are about skin quality too. Where you cannot inject fillers to fill in a static line, we go for salmon DNA to improve the skin quality instead.

A static line is one that remains visible when the face is at rest, rather than appearing only on movement. The instinct is to fill it, and in some places that works. In others the anatomy does not allow it, either because the area cannot safely take product or because filling the line would distort everything around it.
That leaves a gap, and it is the gap most patients run into. The line is real, treating the muscle will not resolve it because the line is present at rest, and filling it is not an option. The remaining variable is the quality of the skin the line sits in.
Polynucleotides, commonly called salmon DNA, work on skin quality rather than on volume. They support the skin to repair and regenerate, improving texture and resilience, which softens how a static line reads without anything being placed into the line itself.
In the case shown in the reel, one session produced a measurable improvement in the line score, and Dr Rami notes that the red spots improved alongside it. That second effect is worth knowing about, because it points to how the treatment works.
A line visible when the face is at rest rather than only during movement. Because it is present without muscle activity, relaxing the muscle alone will not remove it, which changes what treatments are appropriate.
Either the area cannot safely take product, or filling the line would distort the structures around it. In those situations the line is real but filler is not the right tool, which is where skin quality treatment comes in.
Polynucleotides improve the quality of the skin the line sits in rather than filling the line. By supporting repair and regeneration, they soften how the line reads without anything being placed into it.
The case in the reel shows improvement after one session. Polynucleotides generally work best as a short course rather than a single treatment, and the number appropriate for you is established at assessment.
Dr Rami notes that the red spots improved alongside the lines in this case. The treatment works on overall skin quality rather than on one feature, so improvements outside the target area are not unusual.
Yes. The case shown is a male patient, and skin quality treatments are not specific to either sex. What differs is the assessment, since male skin is typically thicker and the pattern of lines often differs.
No. Filler adds volume and holds structure. Polynucleotides add nothing and instead prompt the skin to repair itself, improving texture and resilience. They address different problems and are sometimes used together in the same plan.
It is used across the face and also in areas that tolerate filler poorly, including the under eyes, the neck and the decolletage. That tolerance is part of why it is the answer in situations where volume is not an option.
Polynucleotides work by improving the skin rather than by placing something into it, so the result is your own tissue rather than a product that breaks down. It is not permanent either, and maintenance intervals are discussed at assessment.
If you have lines that remain visible at rest and have been told filler is not suitable, book a consultation with Dr Rami Haidar at Excellence Medical Boutique in Jumeirah, Dubai.
The assessment establishes whether the line is a volume problem, a skin quality problem, or a combination of the two, which determines what can realistically be done about it. Being told that a line cannot be filled is not the same as being told nothing can be done, and the distinction between those two answers is the whole point of this tip.
