Polynucleotides

---

Polynucleotides are innovative injectable treatments derived from DNA fragments that help to stimulate tissue regeneration and repair. They work by promoting cell renewal, enhancing skin hydration, and improving elasticity through their powerful regenerative properties. Often used in skin booster therapies, polynucleotides support the skin’s natural healing processes, reducing fine lines, improving texture, and restoring a youthful, radiant glow. Because they aid in repairing damaged skin cells and boosting collagen production, polynucleotide treatments are ideal for clients seeking to rejuvenate tired, ageing, or sun-damaged skin with a gentle yet effective approach.

Polynucleotides are composed of purified DNA fragments that, when injected into the skin, stimulate tissue repair and regeneration at a cellular level. They work by activating fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin, key proteins that maintain skin’s firmness and elasticity. Additionally, polynucleotides promote skin hydration by enhancing the extracellular matrix, which helps retain moisture and improve skin texture. Their regenerative properties also support the repair of damaged skin cells and reduce inflammation, leading to smoother, more resilient, and revitalised skin. Because they encourage the skin’s natural healing processes, polynucleotide treatments are effective for improving fine lines, skin laxity, and overall skin quality without the need for more invasive procedures.

During your polynucleotide treatment, a series of small injections are administered into the targeted areas, which may cause mild discomfort similar to a pinprick. The procedure typically takes about 30-45 minutes. Immediately after treatment, you might notice redness, swelling, and tenderness at the injection sites, which typically subside within a few hours to a day. Depending on the technique used, you may have some raised bumps, which will disperse naturally over the following days. To support optimal healing and results, avoid direct sun exposure and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. It’s best to refrain from vigorous exercise, alcohol consumption, and the use of harsh skincare products (such as retinoids or acids) for 24 to 48 hours after the treatment. Keeping your skin well hydrated and following any personalised aftercare advice from your practitioner will help maintain the benefits of the treatment. Multiple sessions are usually recommended for the best long-term skin rejuvenation.
