Polynucleotides
POLYNUCLEOTIDES
A New Frontier in Skin Rejuvenation
Decades of Science Backed by Visible Results
Polynucleotides are a revolutionary approach to skin rejuvenation, with over 41 years of scientific research and 36 years of successful medical use. Boasting over 1.8 million applications with no reported adverse or allergic reactions, Polynucleotides are quickly becoming the gold standard in true skin regeneration.
These injectable treatments utilise filtered, ultra-purified, and sterilised natural DNA fractions. This innovative approach triggers your body's natural healing processes, leading to significant improvements in skin health.
Clinical Evidence and Real Results
Over 90 clinical trials have solidified the power of Polynucleotides in both the medical and aesthetic fields, with a proven track record in tissue and cartilage regeneration. Once processed, these natural DNA fractions stimulate the production of fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production. Studies show a significant increase in collagen (47% in 23 days) and a thicker, healthier epidermis (52% in 23 days).
Polynucleotides also boast antioxidant properties, reducing inflammation and restoring youthful volume and hydration. This powerful treatment addresses a wide range of concerns, including:
Holistic skin revitalisation for general signs of aging
Pre and post-operative care for optimal healing (medical & aesthetic procedures)
Acne scar reduction
Improvement of atrophic scars
Rosacea management
Treatment of elastosis (loss of skin elasticity)
Hair loss (alopecia)
Hyperpigmentation (uneven skin tone)
Stretch mark reduction
Deep lines and wrinkles
Rehydration for dull skin at any age

What to expect…..

Pre-treatment
To prepare for your Polynucleotide treatment, discuss any medications or supplements you're taking with Dr. Dev and avoid blood thinners like aspirin or ibuprofen for a week beforehand. Mention any allergies or previous skin conditions you have.
-
Treatment
Dr. Dev will cleanse and numb the treatment area. Using a thin needle, polynucleotides are injected into specific layers of the skin. The number of injections and the targeted areas will depend on your individual needs and desired outcome.
-
Aftercare
Temporary product deposits: In some cases, you might see tiny bumps on the skin's surface shortly after treatment. These are simply small deposits of the product and will naturally disappear within a few hours. While uncommon, some individuals may experience these bumps for a slightly longer duration.
Prioritising aftercare: To optimise healing and results, we recommend avoiding other facial treatments for 72 hours after your Polynucleotide injection. Additionally, it's best to refrain from touching or washing your face for the first 4 hours, and hold off on applying makeup for 12 hours. Dr. Dev will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible outcome.

The Science Behind the Source:
One of the most common questions regarding Polynucleotides is the origin of the DNA used. Interestingly, the source material comes from salmon! While this might sound surprising, salmon DNA shares a remarkable similarity to human DNA. However, it's important to understand that only highly purified and fragmented portions of the DNA are used. This meticulous process ensures there's no residual salmon "matter" present in the final product. Furthermore, clinical trials have shown no allergic reactions to Polynucleotides, even in individuals with fish allergies. Additionally, obtaining the DNA doesn't harm the salmon population.

Polynucleotides offer visible improvements at any age and can be comfortably received throughout the year. While a single treatment can provide benefits, for optimal results, we recommend a series of injections. Dr. Dev will typically recommend a course of at least 3 sessions spaced approximately 3 weeks apart to achieve your desired level of rejuvenation.
Polynucleotides can also be combined with other skin booster treatments like Profhilo for even more comprehensive results. During your consultation, Dr. Dev will discuss the best treatment plan and schedule tailored to your specific needs and goals.
-
While some initial improvement may be noticeable within 7-10 days of your first treatment, the full benefits of Polynucleotides typically take 3-4 weeks to become fully apparent. This timeframe allows your body's natural collagen and elastin production to be stimulated. To maintain these positive changes and maximize both short-term and long-term results, we recommend scheduling a second treatment, and potentially further sessions, around the 3-4 week mark. Dr. Dev will discuss a personalized treatment plan to achieve your desired outcome.

Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers that provide immediate volume, Polynucleotides take a different approach. Instead of simply adding volume, they act as catalysts, stimulating your body's natural production of collagen and elastin by activating fibroblasts, the key players in skin structure. While the Polynucleotide product itself is absorbed relatively quickly, the triggered cell regeneration offers long-lasting improvements that can continue for several months. This essentially "turns back the clock" on your skin's aging process in the treated areas, revealing a more youthful and radiant appearance.
