What are polynucleotides?

Polynucleotides are bio-stimulators derived from fragments of salmon DNA. They are injected under the skin with an ultra-fine needle and work at a cellular level by activating specific receptors on fibroblast cells in the tissues. 

Stimulation of the fibroblasts prompts a healing response in the tissues, resulting in visible skin regeneration. 

Polynucleotides are being used to reverse the ageing of tissues and repair scarring by tackling the concern from the source, in contrast to the traditional approach, for example with fillers, which focuses on treating symptoms.

    • Stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, which helps to improve skin elasticity and firmness, enhancing the results of other treatments, as well as reducing the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin

    • Reducing inflammation, restoring volume and hydration to the skin

    • Helping to protect the skin from damage caused by the sun

    • Little downtime compared to other injectables

  • Research shows that polynucleotides can increase collagen by up to 47% in 23 days and help create a thicker, healthier epidermis with improvements of 52% in 23 days.

    • Rejuvenating treatment for older skin to treat fine lines and wrinkles

    • Preventative treatment for younger skin

    • Rehydration for dull skin at any age

    • Treating dark circles as an alternative to tear trough fillers

    • Strengthening delicate areas of skin such as around the eyes and mouth

    • Reducing inflammation to helps with conditions such as rosacea

    • Treating hyperpigmentation, sun damage, scarring, stretch marks and acne

    • Treating alopecia and hair loss

FAQs

“82% of people saw an improvement in their skin after 4 weeks”

  • Individuals vary, but you should be able to see a difference in the appearance and texture of your skin a few weeks after treatment.

  • The benefits of your treatment should last between six and nine months. 

  • There may be some redness, bruising and slight swelling around the injection sites, but this will soon subside. 

  • We ensures that any discomfort is minimal.  We will also numb the skin with a topical anaesthetic to ensure a more comfortable experience.

  • This procedure is ideal for all signs of ageing skin, including lines, wrinkles, crepey skin and sun damage. 

    The cell regeneration stimulated by polynucleotide treatment can reduce the appearance of acne scars, and its anti-inflammatory action can help rosacea.

  • The cost of your treatment will depend on the area being treated and the number of injections required. 

    All patients have a consultation before starting any treatment at the clinic, and the cost of treatment will be confirmed after an assessment of your skin concerns.
