Polynucleotides (Regenerative Skin Boosters)
Introduction
Polynucleotides are the latest breakthrough in Advanced skin booster treatments and are like a regenerative form of injectable due to their multifaceted functioning.
They are a relatively new concept in aesthetic treatments and have gained their popularity as an anti-ageing treatment due to their ability to stimulate tissue repair, as well as encourage restoration and regeneration of the skin from within.
Polynucleotides are a relatively new concept in aesthetic treatment and have gained their popularity as an anti-ageing treatment due to their ability to stimulate tissue repair, as well as encourage restoration and regeneration of the skin from within.
Polynucleotides can be used in a wide range of applications as a rejuvenating treatment for older skin and as a preventative treatment for younger skin.
What are Polynucleotides ?
Polynucleotides are natural, highly purified molecules that are long chains of DNA ethically sourced from salmon. These highly purified fragments of DNA are suspended in water and available as a new and innovative injectable product.
Different brands of polynucleotides have varying percentages of highly purified polynucleotides.
The polynucleotide Helen has chosen to use for her clients has a powerful combination of 3 ingredients (polynucleotides, hyaluronic acid and peptides) which means we can we can lift, plump, and regenerate your skin in one treatment.
When injected into the skin, these molecules penetrate deep into the dermal layers, and work by stimulating fibroblasts which encourages cell turnover, improves elasticity, boosts collagen production and hydrates skin thanks to their powerful wound-healing polymers.
As Polynucleotides are a component predominantly derived from salmon DNA, it makes them natural, compatible and biodegradable.
What are the Benefits of Polynucleotides ?
Polynucleotides have emerged as a game-changer in the world of skin rejuvenation, due to their potential benefits for improving skin health and appearance.
- They kickstart collagen production, the key to skin’s firmness and elasticity.
- With their exceptional hydrating properties, Polynucleotides enhance moisture levels in your skin, ensuring a smoother and healthier complexion.
- They have anti-inflammatory properties that calm and soothe the skin.
- They promote tissue regeneration, reducing the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars and other types of skin damage, helping skin to recover faster.

- They are very versatile; they can be used to treat a variety of conditions and regions, including the face, neck, décolletage, upper arms, and scars, acne, stretch marks, and loss of elasticity in the face and neck, as well as crepey or drooping necks and under-eye shadows.
How is a Polynucleotide treatment carried out ?
Polynucleotides are injected into your skin via two methods. In some cases, it may be injected with a fine needle, alternatively, a blunt-ended tube, cannula, may be used to spread the product evenly.
Where can Polynucleotides be injected ?
Polynucleotides have been shown to improve skin texture and function. Therefore, they are suitable for any area of the skin, and may be injected generally to cover the whole of the face or may be injected into smaller areas, or a combination of both.
Helen will personalise your treatment plan and will target injections according to your area/s of concern.
In some cases Helen may recommend a combination treatment package, which consists of Dermal fillers and Polynucleotides for maximum cumulative effects, like our Lift, Hydrate and Glow Package.
Polynucleotides work well alongside other treatments, enhancing their effects, such as by boosting the longevity of anti-wrinkle injections.
How long do Polynucleotide treatments take to work ?
The timeline for visible results from Polynucleotide treatments can vary, depending on individual skin types and the specific concerns being addressed. Generally, clients begin to notice improvements within a few weeks after the initial treatment.
The full effects, however, typically become more apparent over the course of several months. This gradual progression is due to the nature of polynucleotides, which work by stimulating the body’s natural processes of collagen and elastin production, as well as enhancing cellular regeneration.
Most clients observe a noticeable difference in skin hydration, texture, and elasticity within the first month, with continued improvements in firmness and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles over the following months.
It’s important to note that multiple treatment sessions may be necessary to achieve optimal results, and these should be spaced out. The longevity and effectiveness of the treatment are also influenced by factors such as lifestyle, skin care routine, and overall health, making it essential to follow post-treatment care instructions and maintain a healthy lifestyle for lasting results.
The result of treatment depends on a variety of factors. Firstly, the degree of your skin ageing prior to the treatment. Secondly, your skin’s ability to regenerate good quality tissue when stimulated. Thirdly, your lifestyle.
How long does a Treatment take ?
15 – 30 minutes
Are there any risks or possible complications with Polynucleotides ?
Polynucleotides are completely safe when administered by a well-trained Practitioner.
Common side effects include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites. These are typically mild and resolve within a few days after the treatment.
However, clients are likely to experience short-lived redness after the treatment and there is always a risk of bruising with any treatment that involves needles.
There is a small risk of infection associated with any injection-based treatment. However Helen ensures the highest standards of hygiene and safety and will provide you with detailed after care instructions to help mi this risk.
