Polynucleotides
What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are one of the most advanced developments in regenerative injectable treatments. Unlike surface level treatments, they work beneath the skin to support natural renewal and improve overall skin quality. These molecules are naturally occurring and are most commonly derived from purified fish DNA such as salmon or trout, but they are also available in synthetic forms. Polynucleotides help stimulate skin repair, boost collagen production and activate cellular regeneration which naturally decline with age.
How Polynucleotides Work
Polynucleotides improve skin health and structure in several ways:
- Skin Repair: They act at a cellular level to support tissue repair and strengthen the skin from within.
- Collagen & Elastin Stimulation: Polynucleotides activate fibroblast cells, boosting collagen and elastin production for firmer, more resilient skin.
- Anti-Inflammatory Support: Well tolerated and gentle, they are suitable for sensitive or delicate skin with a lower risk of inflammation.
Key Benefits
- Anti-Aging: Firms skin and smooths fine lines, wrinkles and sagging by boosting collagen and elastin.
- Deep Hydration: Helps skin retain moisture for a plump, healthy-looking appearance.
- Improved Texture & Tone: Reduces dullness and enhances radiance and elasticity.
- Scar & Stretch Mark Reduction: Supports tissue repair to help minimise acne scars, surgical scars and stretch marks.
- Reduces Inflammation & Redness: Soothes irritation, making it suitable for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin.
- Dark Circle & Under-Eye Improvement: Helps brighten the under-eye area by improving circulation and reducing fluid retention.
- Cellular Regeneration: Encourages natural cell turnover and tissue repair.
- Antioxidant Protection: Helps protect the skin from free radical damage.
Treatment Areas
Polynucleotides can be used on the face, neck, hands, chest, under eye area and other areas where skin quality support is needed. The product amount is tailored to the size and sensitivity of each area.
When Will I See Results?
Initial improvements are typically visible within 3–5 weeks, though results vary per individual. Optimal results are achieved with a full course of treatments over 9–12 weeks, with ongoing improvements as the skin continues to regenerate.
How Long Do Results Last?
Results usually last 6–12 months, depending on skin condition, lifestyle and treatment area. Maintenance treatments every 3–6 months are recommended to preserve the benefits.
Treatment Plan
Most patients benefit from a course of 3–4 treatments, spaced 3–4 weeks apart. Every plan is personalised to your skin’s unique needs to ensure the best regenerative results.
