Polynucleotides | Glowing Skin, Hydration, Fibroblast & Collogen production
What are Polynucleotides and how do they work?
Polynucleotides, long chains of DNA are often derived from salmon DNA due to their similarity to human DNA. They are well-known for their ability to effectively stimulate collagen production and promote skin regeneration. The highly purified DNA particles greatly reduce the risk of allergic reactions, making them safe for individuals with allergies.
When injected, polynucleotides are gradually absorbed by the skin. They activate the skin by stimulating fibroblast cells, enhancing cell renewal, collagen production, hydration, and skin glow, resulting in more resilient, elastic skin with fewer wrinkles. Acting as antioxidants, polynucleotides neutralise free radicals, preventing premature aging. They also promote wound healing, improving scars, reducing stretch marks, and evening out skin tone, while mildly increasing volume and tightening the skin.
For the best results, a course of 3 - 4 treatments are recommend, spaced 2 - 4 weeks apart. This approach ensures consistent stimulation of fibroblast production, maximising both immediate and long-term rejuvenation effects.
Treatment time: Approximately 30 - 45 minutes
Polynucleotides vs Skin Boosters
Understanding the difference between the 2 can be confusing, but at Unique You Aesthetics, this has been simplified as they both have their key differences:
Polynucleotides: Only injectable that can influence at cellular level by boosting fibroblast production, initiating tissue repair, regulating pigmentation, reducing inflammation, and promoting hydration. Unlike skin boosters, they do not provide immediate volumising effects but offer long-term benefits by promoting natural skin repair and regeneration. Due to polynucleotides working at cellular level, full effects are commonly visible at 3 months, however, improvements can be seen after 2-3 weeks.
Skin Boosters: Hydrate and improve skin quality with smaller HA molecules injected superficially, working from the inside out, rejuvenating tissues and providing skin- deep hydration. Results are gradual, promoting collagen production and lasting hydration.
