Many people are now seeking more natural solutions for their cosmetic concerns, with a greater emphasis on regenerative techniques and treatments that transform the skin from within.
Polynucleotide treatment uses purified DNA fragments extracted from the sperm cells of salmon or trout, in a cruelty free way, to biostimulate positive changes in the skin. Polynucleotides (PNs) have gained significant attention in the field of aesthetic medicine for their remarkable ability to rejuvenate and revitalize the skin.
This innovative treatment harnesses the power of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA and RNA, to promote skin healing, collagen synthesis, and overall skin rejuvenation.
Combination treatments often produce best results and PNs can be combined with other treatments such as dermal filler, toxin treatment, PRP and others very effectively. Discounted packages for combination treatments can be priced accordingly
Regenerative techniques have been most commonly used in general medicine, but in recent years, regenerative medicine has caught the attention of aesthetic experts who recognise how it could also be beneficial in this field.
The body's cells communicate with one another in a very precise way: These intercellular messages not only help to determine how we feel and function, but they also have a profound impact on the body's inherent ability to heal itself. As the body ages, intercellular communication and the body's powers of regeneration decline, which is why the effects of ageing become more pronounced. Treatments are now being used in regenerative medicine to address this, aiming to actually revert the intercellular matrix back to a younger state.
One such treatment promising to do just that involves the use of polynucleotides.
PNs work at a cellular level to stimulate the body’s natural healing and regeneration process. They stimulate fibroblasts and thereby collagen and elastin. It is well known that fibroblasts produce collagen. Inevitably, fibroblast function declines with age, leading to a decrease in collagen production.
PNs have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce redness and swelling after aesthetic procedures. They also have antioxidative properties and can scavenge free radicals. Free radicals and oxidative damage are major contributing factors to ageing.
For best results, 2-3 treatments are recommended initially (2-4 weeks apart) with a top up session around every 9-12 months.
PN treatment requires some patience, with best results seen 2-3 months following treatment
PNs are biocompatible, well tolerated, can be used on any skin type and have a good safety profile. Immediately after treatment there may be transient redness, swelling, itching and possible bruising which should subside within a few days. It is advisable to avoid strenuous exercise, swimming, saunas and sunbeds until the area has settled.
