Cho Eun-ae, an analyst at LS Securities, mentioned, “As consciousness of polynucleotide (PN) and polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) elements spreads amongst aesthetic physicians and influencers, model recognition of the medical device-based ‘Rejuran’ has begun to spill over into the cosmetics class, putting the corporate within the early phases of rising client consciousness within the native market.” She added, “U.S. gross sales are projected at 34.2 billion received this 12 months and 61.5 billion received subsequent 12 months, indicating robust export-driven development.”
