What is Polynucleotide Treatment?
Polynucleotide treatment is an advanced, non-surgical skincare therapy that focuses on rejuvenating and revitalising the skin at a cellular level. This treatment involves the application of polynucleotides, which are essential DNA fragments that naturally occur in the body. When introduced to the skin, these polynucleotides promote cellular regeneration, boost hydration, and enhance skin elasticity. The result is a significant reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improved skin texture, and an overall youthful glow. At our clinic, we specialise in facial Polynucleotide treatments, specifically designed to target and treat the delicate skin of the face. This innovative therapy helps to repair damaged skin cells, stimulate collagen production, and restore the skin's natural vitality. Ideal for individuals seeking to combat the early signs of ageing or to enhance their complexion, our tailored treatments ensure that each session meets your unique skin needs, providing you with a refreshed and radiant appearance.
How do Polynucleotide treatments work?
Polynucleotide treatments work by leveraging the regenerative properties of polynucleotides, which are naturally occurring DNA fragments within our bodies. When these polynucleotides are introduced into the skin, they stimulate the body's natural repair processes. This begins at a cellular level, where the polynucleotides enhance the activity of fibroblasts—cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin. By boosting collagen and elastin production, the skin becomes firmer, more elastic, and visibly smoother. During the treatment, a specialised serum containing polynucleotides is carefully injected into targeted areas of the face. The minimally invasive procedure ensures that the polynucleotides are delivered directly to the deeper layers of the skin where they can have the most significant impact. The increased collagen and elastin not only help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles but also improve the overall texture and tone of the skin, giving it a healthy, youthful glow.
Treatment Process and Results
Polynucleotide treatment process begins with a thorough consultation to assess your skin's condition and identify your specific concerns. During the treatment, a specialised serum containing polynucleotides is gently injected into the targeted areas of the face using fine needles. This minimally invasive procedure ensures that the polynucleotides penetrate deeply into the skin, where they can effectively stimulate cellular regeneration and collagen production. The entire session typically lasts around 30 to 45 minutes, and the discomfort is minimal, often likened to tiny pinpricks. Results from Polynucleotide treatments are both immediate and progressive. Shortly after the treatment, you may notice a subtle plumping effect and improved hydration, giving your skin a fresher, more radiant appearance. Over the following weeks, as the polynucleotides work to regenerate and repair skin cells, the benefits become more pronounced. Fine lines and wrinkles diminish, skin elasticity improves, and the overall texture and tone of your skin are enhanced. For optimal results, we recommend between 2 to 4 treatment sessions spaced 4 weeks apart, depending on the desired outcome and the condition being treated. Additionally, a maintenance session after 6 months is advised to sustain the rejuvenating effects and ensure long-lasting, youthful skin.
Post-Treatment Care and Maintenance
Post-treatment care and maintenance are crucial to achieving and sustaining the best results from your Polynucleotide treatment. Immediately after the procedure, it is normal to experience mild redness, swelling, or tenderness in the treated areas. These effects typically subside within a few hours to a couple of days. To aid in the healing process, it is recommended to avoid touching or massaging the treated areas and to refrain from using any harsh skincare products for at least 24 hours. Applying a gentle, hydrating moisturizer and using sunscreen with a high SPF is recommended to protect the skin and support recovery. In the days following your treatment, maintaining a consistent skincare routine will help prolong the results. This includes keeping the skin well-hydrated and avoiding excessive sun exposure.
