Polynucleotides


What are Polynucleotides?

Polynucleotides are injectable bio-stimulators derived from fragments of DNA to stimulate your own cells to produce some of the tissue that we lose with ageing. Polynucleotides boost collagen and elastin by up-regulating the fibroblast cells, as well as improving tissue regeneration and restoring skin tone and elasticity. It has an antioxidant and hydrating effect in addition to the bio-remodelling, therefore resulting in skin that looks and feels healthier.
Additionally, they possess the ability to soothe inflammation and restore the balance of skin pigmentation, resulting in a more even and refreshed skin tone without adding volume like traditional dermal fillers.
Although similar to skin boosters, polynucleotide injectables are a separate treatment and well-recognised for their complex structures and ability to rejuvenate the skin with a natural result.

What Can Polynucleotides Be Used For?

Since they have proven exceptionally well in enhancing the skin’s quality, they can be used to address:
  • Acne scarring
  • Skin conditions such as rosacea, melasma and hyperpigmentation
  • Atrophic scarring
  • Alopecia and androgenic hair loss
  • Deep lines and sunken wrinkles
  • Skin rehydration and rejuvenation
  • Elastosis
  • Facial ageing such as sagging and the formation of fine lines
  • Lumpy scars

How Long does it take for it to work?

Like other injectables, polynucleotides also require a period of time to proceduce results as they work at a cellular level, also futher maintenance treatments are required for optimal efficacy. Whilst this completely depends on the clients aims and the product you choose to use, we recommend a course of three treatments for maximum results. This will also ensure continued active stimulation of fibroblast production which will essentially maximise both the short and long-term results.
Although this may differ from patient to patient, most people notice treatment effects after 3-5 weeks, with the target results expected from 3+ months after the course of treatment has been issued.
At our clinic, each treatment plan is individualised to meet your specific needs to achieve maximum results.
