Redefining Natural Skin Regeneration with Collagen Biostimulation
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Linerase, the advanced collagen biostimulator trusted by aesthetic doctors worldwide, has officially launched in Malaysia. Designed to stimulate the body's natural collagen production, Linerase, a product distributed by Venusys Medical, offers a revolutionary approach to skin rejuvenation, restoring elasticity, firmness, and youthful radiance through scientifically backed biostimulation.
During the launch event, international expert Professor Andrea Corbo, Founder of Linerase and Dermatologist from Italy and Dr. Katerina Gkouvi, Dermatologist from Greece shared valuable insights into the science behind Linerase and its unique applications. The programme concluded with Dr. Lim Ting Song, aesthetic physician and Medical Director at Clique Clinic presenting results from local clinical trials, highlighting significant improvements in skin quality, elasticity, and resilience following treatment with Linerase.
Science Behind Linerase
Unlike traditional treatments that add volume or temporarily mask aging, Linerase directly targets the fibroblasts of our skin, which are essentially the cells that act as collagen factories within the skin. Upon being exposed to Linerase, these fibroblasts are stimulated to multiply themselves. Furthermore, Linerase also provides amino acids to these newly-formed fibroblasts, which are utilized as raw materials in the formation of new collagen. All of these effects work in tandem to significantly enhance the production of Type III collagen within our skin. This process helps restore skin firmness, improve texture, and support long-term skin regeneration. Its key indications include:
- Restoring skin elasticity and firmness in the face, neck, décolletage, and other body areas
- Improving atrophic skin conditions such as stretch marks, acne scars, post-surgical scars, and trauma lesions
Formulated with Heterologous Type I Collagen (HTIC) derived from equine sources, Linerase breaks down into amino acids and tripeptides upon hydrolysis. The tripeptides stimulate the formation of new fibroblasts and inhibit collagen-degrading enzymes, while the amino acids support the production of Type III collagen. This results in exceptional biocompatibility, promotes effective wound healing, and supports dermo-epidermal regeneration — all while maintaining a strong safety profile with no reported immune responses to date.
Linerase stands out in the field of regenerative aesthetics by stimulating the production of Type III collagen — a critical component in tissue repair, skin elasticity, and neovascularization. Its uniquely low molecular weight formulation (under 1 kiloDalton) significantly reduces the risk of allergenic reactions and granuloma formation, remaining well below the 10 kiloDalton threshold typically associated with such responses. Unlike many collagen stimulators that primarily target Type I collagen — which can lead to thicker, more fibrotic tissue — Linerase promotes the regeneration of Type III collagen, closely associated with youthful, resilient skin. This targeted approach results in more natural, supple outcomes, reinforcing Linerase's position as a safer and more advanced solution in aesthetic medicine.
"At Linerase, we believe that true skin rejuvenation lies not in covering up imperfections but in restoring the skin's natural structure and vitality. With Linerase, we are empowering the skin to heal, regenerate, and reveal its healthiest state," said Prof. Andrea Corbo during his sharing session.
Echoing this sentiment, Dr. Katerina shared, "Linerase fills an important gap in modern aesthetic medicine — offering patients a treatment that not only addresses visible signs of aging but does so in a way that is safe, natural, and scientifically backed. It's a new chapter for skin health in Malaysia."
A New Standard in Skin Health
Backed by over 30 years of research from its Italian developer CSD, and certified with ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 standards, Linerase stands at the forefront of regenerative aesthetics. Its scientifically proven efficacy, biocompatibility, and long-lasting natural results set a new benchmark in non-invasive skin rejuvenation.

HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, Jan. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital travel platform Agoda reveals that Vietnam is becoming an increasingly popular year-end travel choice for families in the region and beyond. Based on searches made between September and November 2025 for stays during December 2025 and January 2026, Agoda recorded a 30% increase in family travel interest to Vietnam compared with the same period the previous year.
Agoda data shows that Vietnam is attracting more international families than ever this winter holiday season. South Koreans take the lead as the top market interested in traveling to Vietnam in December and January, with families from India, Singapore, Australia, and Malaysia rounding out the top five. Notably, Agoda reported that Indian families showcased the highest growth in travel interest to Vietnam during this period, with a 186% increase in searches. Malaysians also, are expressing strong growth in interest, with a 74% increase in searches, highlighting Vietnam's appeal as a family destination in Southeast Asia and beyond.
Families are choosing Vietnam for its storied culture and cuisine, diverse landscapes, and abundance of family-friendly resorts and attractions.
Phu Quoc Island leads as the most sought-after destination among international family travelers with a 47% increase in searches, popular for its sandy beaches, calm waters, and nature parks ideal for multi-generation vacations. Da Nang follows with 42% growth in travel interest, noted for its beaches, soft adventure activities, and access to Ba Na Hills theme park. Nha Trang comes in third place, remaining a favorite for its long coastline, family-oriented resorts, and island experiences. In fourth place, Ho Chi Minh City appeals with its vibrant food scene, entertainment complexes, and day trips to the Mekong Delta. In the north, Hanoi continues to draw families with its cultural landmarks, museums, and festive atmosphere, rounding out the top five most family-friendly year-end destinations in Vietnam.
Meanwhile, although Vietnamese families traditionally travel less internationally at the end of the year – typically preferring to wait for the Lunar New Year - China is becoming a noticeable exception. Among the top 20 outbound destinations preferred by Vietnamese families during the December-January period, searches for Shanghai increased 58%, while Beijing increased 59%. This shift is supported by the launch of new direct routes between Hanoi and selected Chinese cities earlier this year, making end-of-year overseas trips more accessible than ever.
Vu Ngoc Lam, Country Director at Agoda, said: "It is wonderful to see Vietnam increasingly chosen as an end-of-year holiday destination for families from across Asia and beyond. Agoda's data shows that travelers are recognizing Vietnam's family-friendly appeal, which further strengthen its position on the global travel map. As more families plan their festive-season or year-end getaways, we are delighted to support them through Agoda's simple, intuitive platform and our wide range of stays, flights, and activities."
