No jar, no fingers, no spill in a bag.

It hydrates and softens skin and improves how skin looks. We are not going to tell you it rebuilds collagen, regenerates tissue or reverses ageing - those are medical claims, and topical skincare is not the same thing as the clinical procedures PDRN is better known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eTwo things we would rather flag than hide:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt contains EGF (epidermal growth factor).\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a common ingredient in Korean skincare, but some people prefer to avoid growth factors, and some countries regulate them more tightly than others.
