What do they target? Who can benefit from Polynucleotide treatment?

 

Polynucleotides are an incredible injectable treatment for natural skin repair and rejuvenation.  They stimulate collagen and elastin to improve fine lines, wrinkles, sunken skin, pigmentation, hydration, skin texture, increase circulation and upgrade overall skin condition. This game changing treatment targets any signs of ageing.  They are also beneficial for acne scarring, and rosacea. 

 

Polynucleotides can be used under the eyes for mild hollowing, dark circles and puffiness. It is a great alternative treatment for those who are not candidates for tear trough filler due to poor skin laxity or puffiness. They can also be used to tighten and lift the cheek and jaw area, as well as on the neck to treat fine lines and crepey skin. 

 

What are they made of? How do they work?

 

We contain unique DNA that is made up of strands of protein molecules called polynucleotides. These control important bodily functions, including how the skin develops.  When polynucleotides (derived from salmon or trout) are injected into the skin, they help damaged DNA cells in the skin to repair and this results in better functioning cells. For example, polynucleotides stimulate fibroblasts, the cells which help form collagen and elastin which are the essential proteins that provide the skin with a youthful appearance.

 

Polynucleotide treatment also has an anti-free radical action helping to counteract and protect the skin from factors such as the sun and stress which can accelerate ageing.  This is why this treatment is often termed ‘regenerative’, meaning they change how your DNA is expressed, encouraging the body’s natural mechanisms to generate healthier skin cells.
