Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are injectable bio-stimulators made from purified DNA fragments! They enhance collagen and elastin production, essential skin proteins that decline with age, by activating fibroblast cells. This promotes tissue regeneration and restores skin tone and elasticity. Polynucleotides also provide antioxidant and hydrating benefits, resulting in healthier, more youthful-looking skin.
What are Polynucleotides?
The secret to beautiful skin does lie in its health, however, we do understand that achieving and maintaining skin in its peak condition is not easy.
As the demand for natural solutions in cosmetic procedures grows, polynucleotide treatment is experiencing a surge in popularity at aesthetic clinics. This innovative treatment utilises DNA fragments derived from salmon to bio-stimulate beneficial changes within the skin. Polynucleotide solutions have the unique ability to deliver specific signals at the cellular level, encouraging desired actions. When administered into the skin, this treatment offers a range of impressive benefits!
Benefits of Polynucleotides:
Enhances cellular turnover, resulting in a refreshed complexion
– Boosts elastin production, reducing skin laxity
– Diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
– Improves micro-circulation, enhancing skin brightness
– Reduces dark circles under the eyes
– Maintains optimal skin hydration
– Plumps the skin, minimizing hollowness under the eyes
How do Polynucleotides work?
When injected, the DNA fragments are gradually absorbed into the skin without causing any lumps. Once assimilated, they begin to signal the skin in three significant ways.
First, they stimulate the proliferation and activity of fibroblast cells. This leads to enhanced cell renewal, increased collagen production, improved hydration, and a radiant complexion. As a result, the skin becomes more resilient, with better elasticity and fewer wrinkles.
Second, these fragments act as powerful antioxidants, neutralizing free radicals that would otherwise cause cellular damage.
Third, they serve as powerful wound-healing agents, prompting the skin to engage in intense repair processes. This helps to diminish scars, reduce stretch marks, and address texture issues. As the skin enters repair mode, discoloration fades, leading to a more even tone. Additionally, polynucleotides provide a subtle increase in volume and a tightening effect, contributing to an overall enhanced appearance.
Can the Polynucleotide treatment be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely! In fact, we often recommend it for best results! We often pair polynucleotide treatment with Dermal Fillers, Anti-wrinkle injections, Microneedling or Profhilo as we find that combination treatments often lead to the best results for our clients!
How many sessions of Polynucleotides will I need?
To achieve optimal results, we suggest beginning with two initial treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart, followed by a maintenance session every 9-12 months. Unlike dermal fillers that provide immediate outcomes, polynucleotide treatments necessitate a bit of patience, with the most significant improvements typically appearing 2-3 months post-treatment.

When will I see results with Polynucleotides?
The first signs of improvement often begin around 7-10 days after your first treatment, with the full effects visible at around 3-4 weeks. This is when we recommend your second, and subsequent treatments to take place. By doing so, we maintain continued, active stimulation of fibroblast production, maximising short and long-term results!
How long do results from Polynucleotides last?
Polynucleotides stand apart from other hyaluronic-based Skin Boosters and Dermal Fillers. Instead of simply boosting collagen and elastin levels or adding volume with temporary fillers, polynucleotides act as catalysts for the regeneration of fibroblasts, which are essential to the skin’s structure. Once administered, the product is quickly absorbed by the body, having already activated new cell production. While the natural aging process continues, the treated areas effectively experience a rejuvenation, turning back the clock.

FAQ
Before the procedure, you’ll receive instructions on how to prepare your skin for the Polynucleotides treatment! . This may include guidelines on skincare, medications or supplements that could affect the treatment outcome.
After the procedure, it’s common to experience mild swelling or redness in the treated areas. To help with these symptoms, gently apply a cold compress, ensuring minimal pressure on the skin. Avoid touching or massaging the treated regions to prevent disrupting the newly administered polynucleotides.
Thoughtful Planning of Activities and Skincare: For the first 24 to 48 hours post-treatment, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and exposure to high temperatures, such as saunas or hot baths. Protect your skin from direct sunlight by applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen to shield the treated areas from UV damage.
Maintain Hydration and Follow a Nutrient-Rich Diet: Proper hydration is crucial for optimal skin health. Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated. Additionally, incorporate a diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants to support the skin’s healing and rejuvenation process.
