Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides introduce the exciting new concept of regenerative medicine. This safe, non-surgical aesthetic injectable treatment works at the cellular level to regenerate and repair skin tone and texture. Ideal for those wanting to restore a natural look - as an alternative or indeed an add-on, to anti-wrinkle/filler/skin booster treatment.

We are particularly loving the results of peri-orbital treatment and crepey skin on the face and neck. So if you’re worried about wrinkles, fine lines, dark circles under the eyes, or ageing skin, this is for you... When all our friends volunteered for treatment, we knew we were on to a winner!

FAQs

  • Polynucleotides use the latest technology in skin rejuvenation: injectable polynucleotides (PDRN) which are naturally occurring DNA building blocks, usually derived from salmon or trout before being ultra-purified. Once injected into the skin, these have a remarkable ability to promote fibroblast activity and cell turnover, improving skin elasticity and hydration, as well as healing sun damaged skin, photoaging and acne scarring.

  • Research studies have demonstrated that PDRNs can:

    • Improve skin hydration

    • Improve skin thickness

    • Increase collagen production

    • Increase skin elasticity

    • Reduce inflammation in acne and rosacea

    • Improve acne scarring

    • Reduce pigmentation

  • You will initially have numbing cream applied to your face, to ensure you are quite comfortable.

    The treatment involves lots of tiny injections around your eye, resulting in multiple raised blisters which may be apparent afterwards for up to 3 days. We may also use a cannula for other areas of the face or neck.

  • Polynucleotides have an excellent safety record, although it is not uncommon to get some mild swelling and redness surrounding the raised blebs for up to 48 hours. Beyond that, bruising can occur which may take up to 10 days to resolve.

  • Whilst you can see results after 3-4 weeks, we find best results are after a course of 2-3 treatments.

  • We have discovered our favourite combination of injectable treatments for the peri-orbital region! Pair the regenerative powers of Polynuclotides with the hydrating effects of Sunekos, for fabulous results. Alternate these treatments every 2-3 weeks and reap the rewards…
