Polynucleotides treatment is gaining recognition as a revolutionary skin regeneration therapy. Unlike traditional skin boosters, polynucleotides work at a cellular level to repair and rejuvenate the skin, making it an excellent option for those seeking natural, long-term improvements.
How Is The Treatment Administered?
Polynucleotides treatment is a non-surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin from within. The treatment typically lasts between 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Here’s what you can expect:
Preparation: To ensure comfort, a numbing cream is applied to the targeted areas. This helps to minimise any discomfort during the procedure.
Application: Using a fine needle, polynucleotides are injected superficially into the skin. Unlike anti-wrinkle injections, which penetrate deeper into the muscle, polynucleotides work just beneath the skin’s surface to stimulate fibroblast production and induce tissue repair.
Post-Treatment: The treated area may show mild redness, swelling or slight bruising, but these effects typically subside within a few hours to days.
This treatment is suitable for various areas, including the face, neck, décolletage, hands, body and even the scalp.
What Makes Polynucleotides Different From Skin Boosters?
While polynucleotides and skin boosters are both injectable treatments aimed at skin rejuvenation, they function differently:
Polynucleotides: These are purified DNA fragments that work by stimulating fibroblasts, promoting collagen and elastin production, and enhancing tissue repair. They do not add volume but provide deep regeneration for long-term skin health.
Skin Boosters: Typically made of hyaluronic acid, skin boosters focus on hydration and plumping, offering an immediate filling effect but without the same regenerative benefits as polynucleotides.
For those looking for sustained skin renewal rather than a temporary volumising effect, polynucleotides treatment is an excellent choice.
Side Effects & Aftercare
Polynucleotides treatment is considered safe, with minimal risk of serious side effects. After the procedure, some common but temporary reactions include:
- Mild swelling
- Redness
- Bruising
- A slight warmth in the treated areas
These side effects resolve on their own within a few hours or days, depending on individual factors such as skin sensitivity and injection technique.
To ensure optimal healing and results, follow these aftercare guidelines:
- Avoid touching the treated area for at least 6 hours.
- Use a gentle cleanser to wash the area after the initial healing period.
- Avoid applying makeup for 24 hours post-treatment.
- Refrain from strenuous exercise, swimming or alcohol consumption for 24 hours.
- Apply SPF 30 or higher to protect the skin from sun exposure.
- Avoid extreme temperatures, such as saunas, steam rooms and intense sunlight, until redness and swelling subside.
Who Should Avoid Polynucleotides Treatment?
While this treatment is suitable for most individuals, certain conditions may require caution or make you ineligible for the procedure. It is not recommended for:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Individuals with a known allergy to fish (a patch test is advised)
- Those with autoimmune skin diseases
- People on specific medications (consultation with a specialist is advised)
