What are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are naturally occurring DNA fragments vital in cellular repair and regeneration. These molecules act as essential building blocks for healthy skin, helping to restore skin health by promoting tissue regeneration, stimulating collagen production, and improving overall skin elasticity and hydration. As a cutting-edge skin rejuvenation treatment, polynucleotides enhance the skin’s quality, boost collagen levels, and reduce visible signs of ageing, especially in delicate areas like the under-eye region.
Polynucleotides used in skin booster treatments are derived from purified DNA extracts, often from natural sources such as salmon. These DNA fragments are carefully processed to ensure they are biocompatible and safe for human use. Their ability to promote skin repair and collagen production makes them a highly effective choice for rejuvenating the skin. Many patients seeking to boost collagen with polynucleotide skin boosters choose this treatment for its natural origins and compatibility with the body.
- Improves Skin Quality: Targets the skin’s underlying structure to enhance firmness, elasticity, and hydration.
- Boosts Collagen Production: Stimulates the skin’s natural collagen production, leading to smoother and more youthful-looking skin.
- Reduces Dark Circles: Effectively diminishes dark circles and puffiness, particularly in the under-eye area.
- Safe for Sensitive Areas: Polynucleotides can be safely used in delicate regions, including the under-eye area, with minimal risk of irritation.
- Natural and Biocompatible: Polynucleotides are a natural product that integrates seamlessly with the skin, lowering the risk of allergic reactions.
It is typically recommended to undergo 3 to 4 treatments, spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, for optimal results. The exact number of sessions depends on individual skin needs and desired outcomes. Maintenance treatments every few months can help sustain the benefits for longer-lasting results.
Techniques for injecting Polynucleotides
There are various methods for administering polynucleotides depending on the treatment area and the patient’s goals:
- Cannula Injection: This technique is often used for more significant facial regions and the under-eye area, minimising trauma and reducing the risk of bruising.
- Needle Injection: Allows for precise application of polynucleotides in targeted areas, ideal for more localised treatments.
- Microneedling: Involves creating tiny punctures in the skin’s surface, delivering polynucleotides evenly while stimulating collagen production and improving overall skin texture.
What is the recovery period after Polynucleotide treatment?
Polynucleotide treatments involve minimal downtime. Patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, but these effects usually subside within a few days. Most individuals can resume their daily activities immediately, making this an excellent option for improving skin quality without significant downtime.
How Polynucleotides work to improve skin and Collagen production?
Polynucleotides stimulate fibroblast activity in the skin, which plays a crucial role in collagen synthesis. Polynucleotides help rebuild the skin’s structure, increase elasticity, and improve hydration levels by enhancing the skin’s natural repair mechanisms. The result is firmer, smoother skin with a more youthful appearance. This treatment is especially beneficial for targeting dark circles, revitalising the under-eye area, and leaving it brighter and refreshed
