“It really is a natural way to improve our skin and tissues on a cellular level”.

“Polynucleotides are an injectable bio-stimulator,” Says Fiona. The molecules are made from particles of fish which mirror human DNA.

The purpose of injecting the product is to stimulate our own cells to produce some of the things that we lose with ageing. Essentially, Polynucleotides boost collagen and elastin by up-regulating the fibroblast cells, as well as improving tissue regeneration and restoring skin tone and elasticity. It has an antioxidant and hydrating effect in addition to the bio-remodelling, therefore resulting in skin that looks and feels healthier.

Also frequently known as PN or PDRN, polynucleotides are categorised as a regenerative treatment with the purpose of revitalising the skin on a deeper level. Each polynucleotide strand consists of a repeating pattern of a sugar molecule and a phosphate group. DNA and RNA represent the two main categories of nucleic acids. In simpler terms, these injectables essentially provide DNA molecules that encourage the skin to repair itself and promote various skin-boosting benefits, both immediate and long-term. This exciting advancement in regenerative medicine focuses on restoring normal cellular function by repairing the skin on a more intense level.

Like many other regenerative medicine tools, polynucleotides have a long history of being used in general medicine before their introduction to the world of medical aesthetics with over 90 clinical trials to back this up. Studies have reported their successful treatments with the evidence for polynucleotide’s power remaining undisputed in both the medical and aesthetic fields.

What Can Polynucleotides Be Used For?

Unlike some injectables, polynucleotides are an exceptionally versatile and all-around treatment. With polynucleotide products developed with a host of concerns in mind, these restorative injectables can be used to treat perceived flaws across the body and face, including the eye area and stretch marks.

Excellent at boosting fibroblast production and inducing deep tissue repair processes, polynucleotides enhance the skin’s quality whilst also aiding with other concerns. Some other key usages of polynucleotides include:

• Acne scarring
• Skin conditions such as rosacea, melasma and hyperpigmentation
• Atrophic scarring
• Deep lines and sunken wrinkles
• Skin rehydration and rejuvenation
• Facial ageing such as sagging and the formation of fine lines
• Lumpy scars
• Stretch marks and loose skin
• Under eye bags
