Polynucleotides are a new concept in regenerative medicine. A groundbreaking treatment which helps you to achieve a more nourished, healthy and revitalised complexion. The treatment promotes cell turnover, improves skin elasticity and hydration, diminishes sun damage, reduces fine lines and acne scarring, considerably benefits dark areas under the eye and improves skin laxity and texture. Other areas, previously difficult to treat can also benefit such as  rejuvenating the scalp, neck, décolletage, inner arms and thighs, knees.
The treatment involves tiny injections of purified DNA fragments derived from salmon DNA as an active ingredient. It has been scientifically proven that these DNA fragments have remarkable regenerative properties. They work at a cellular level to stimulate collagen synthesis, improving the elasticity of your skin and promoting tissue repair thanks to powerful wound healing polymers. Polynucleotides also calm inflammation and rebalance melanocyte activity to create even and refreshed skin tone.
Your Practitioner will advise you on the best course of treatment for you. Generally it will comprise a course of 3 sessions, 2-4 weeks apart. Numbing cream is used making the injections very tolerable. The results last 6-12 months with boosters available as necessary.
What are the benefits of Polynucleotides Injections?
- Stimulate Collagen Production:Â As we age, the production of collagen decreases. Polynucleotides can help reverse this process by triggering collagen production in your skin. This results in smoother, firmer skin with a noticeable reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.
- Accelerate Tissue Repair: Whether you’re dealing with acne scars, sun damage or other forms of skin imperfections, polynucleotides can assist in accelerating tissue repair. By activating the body’s natural healing mechanisms, this treatment promotes the regeneration of damaged skin cells.
- Enhance Skin Hydration: Skin dehydration is a common concern for many. Polynucleotides have the ability to enhance skin hydration by improving the skin’s natural moisture-retaining capabilities. As a result you’re left with a radiant, well-hydrated complexion and a youthful glow.
- Anti-inflammatory:Â
Polynucleotides have shown anti-inflammatory properties which can help reduce redness, irritation and swelling in the skin. This may be beneficial if you’re suffering with sensitive or reactive skin conditions. - Minimise Scarring and Stretch Marks: Polynucleotides can also be effective in reducing the appearance of scars, including acne scars, as well as stretch marks. By stimulating collagen production and promoting tissue regeneration, these injectables can help smooth out uneven skin texture.
- Safe and Non-Invasive:Â Polynucleotides are a safe and minimally invasive treatment option. This treatment is performed by our experienced medical professionals who will tailor the treatment to you, in a safe and comfortable environment
Can I have Polynucleotides Injections if I am allergic to fish?
Yes you can as Polynucleotides are not made from fish themselves but from fish DNA. There have been no reports within the industry of allergic reactions in people with fish allergies.
Who is suitable for Polynucleotide Treatment?
Most people will benefit from polynucleotide treatment but in older skin the benefits are more noticeable. This is because of the depletion of collagen and elastin causing signs of ageing. The stimulation of collagen production and cell repair and renewal helps to reduce this and gives the skin a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
What is the difference between Profile and Polynucleotides?
Profhilo is a hyaluronic acid injection which deeply hydrates the skin giving an overall glow. Very appropriate for boosting younger skins. It doesn’t however address the common signs of ageing. Polynucleotides energise the fibroblast cells which produce collagen. This helps to remodel the skin and improve many of the signs of ageing.
What is the downtime after Polynucleotides Injections?
As the skin is being injected in multiple areas, small bumps or red marks may appear and can last for a few days following treatment. As with any injectable treatment, there is a risk of redness, swelling and bruising.
How long before I see the results of the Polynucleotide treatment?
You should see noticeable results after the first treatment and this will improve over time. The final results will be visible around 6 weeks after the final treatment and with no maintenance sessions will last for up to 1 year.
