Polynucleotides
What are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are molecules made up of long chains of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA. In the context of medical treatments, polynucleotides are often used to promote tissue regeneration, collagen production, and overall skin rejuvenation. These treatments can help improve the appearance of the skin, reduce wrinkles, and enhance overall skin health. It essentially makes the skin younger from inside to outside.
Polynucleotide chains make regenerative changes on a cellular level and when injected, polynucleotides offer various advantages, including:
- Enhancing cell turnover
- Boosting skin elasticity
- Diminishing hyperpigmentation
- Minimising pore size
- Amplifying hyaluronic acid production
- Reducing hollowing
- Diminishing fine lines
- Giving a brighter, radiant complexion
DARK CIRCLES
Dark circles under the eyes are a common concern for many individuals. Our Polynucleotide treatment targets the pigmentation and discolouration that often cause these dark circles to appear. The results are remarkable, with improvements in under-eye brightness of over 32% seen in as little as 4 weeks.
SKIN ELASTICITY AND CREPEYNESS
As we age, a decrease in skin elasticity becomes evident, resulting in the development of fine lines, wrinkles, and a creased, sagging look. By administering polynucleotides beneath the eyes, we stimulate increased skin elasticity, ultimately revitalising the under-eye region for a more youthful, firm, and smooth appearance.
UNDER-EYE HOLLOWS
Deep tear troughs can result in a tired and sunken appearance beneath the eyes. Although Polynucleotides do not fill these hollows like conventional fillers, the treatment effectively works to subtly diminish the visibility of these under-eye depressions. By revitalising and plumping the skin in this delicate area, Polynucleotides help in reducing the appearance of under-eye hollows for a refreshed and rejuvenated look.
HYDRATION
Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin, plays a vital role in retaining moisture and preserving hydration levels. By promoting increased synthesis of hyaluronic acid, Polynucleotides work to keep the under-eye area well-hydrated and looking plump.
LINES AND WRINKLES
Through Polynucleotide Treatment, collagen and elastin production is encouraged, leading to enhanced skin elasticity and a decrease in the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. This process contributes to creating a smoother under-eye area, promoting a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
How do Polynucleotide Treatments Work?
Polynucleotide treatments work by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes. When applied to the skin, polynucleotides promote collagen production, improve tissue regeneration, and enhance skin elasticity. This can result in smoother, firmer skin with a more youthful appearance.
Are Polynucleotide Treatments Safe?
Polynucleotide treatments are generally considered safe when administered by trained medical professionals.
How Soon Will I See Results from Polynucleotide Treatments?
Results from polynucleotide treatments may vary depending on the individual and the specific treatment protocol used. Some patients may begin to see improvements in skin texture and appearance within a few weeks of treatment and others it can take 12 weeks. Patience is the key with this treatment and it is certainly worth the wait.
What is the difference between Polynucleotides and Skin Boosters?
Polynucleotides and skin boosters are both popular treatments for skin rejuvenation, but they work in slightly different ways. Polynucleotides, as mentioned earlier, are molecules that promote tissue regeneration and collagen production. They help improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and enhance overall skin health. On the other hand, skin boosters typically consist of hyaluronic acid, a substance that hydrates the skin and improves its elasticity. While both treatments can enhance skin appearance, polynucleotides focus more on tissue regeneration and collagen stimulation, while skin boosters primarily target skin hydration and elasticity.
What areas can you treat with Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotide treatments can be used to treat a variety of areas on the body, with the most common areas being the face, neck, and hands. These treatments are particularly effective for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture, and enhancing overall skin quality in these areas. Additionally, polynucleotides can also be used to target specific concerns such as acne scars, stretch marks, and sun-damaged skin.
Are Polynucleotide Treatments Painful?
Polynucleotide treatments are generally well-tolerated by most patients and are not considered to be painful. Depending on the specific treatment protocol used, you may experience some mild discomfort during the procedure, such as a slight stinging sensation or temporary redness at the treatment site. However, any discomfort is typically minimal and short-lived, and most patients are able to resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment.
How long do the results of Polynucleotide Treatments last?
The longevity of results from polynucleotide treatments can vary depending on factors such as the individual’s skin type, age, and lifestyle. Generally, most patients can expect to see visible improvements in their skin for several months following treatment. To maintain optimal results, periodic follow-up treatments of at least 6 monthly will support collagen production and skin rejuvenation over time.
