How do Polynucleotides work?
The Mechanism By Which Polynucleotides Work
As we age and our skin matures, we often experience the development of fine lines and wrinkles as well as a loss of elasticity, which can impact the structure of the face. These are very common skin concerns and while traditional aesthetic treatments can temporarily minimise their appearance, it is only with the emergence of polynucleotide (POLYNUCLEOTIDES) treatments that we have a solution that can rejuvenate the skin for long-lasting results.
What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are made up of nucleotides and are essentially the building blocks of our DNA. Polynucleotides have a molecular structure which plays a key role in a variety of biological processes in the body, including the repair and regeneration of cells.
POLYNUCLEOTIDES treatments are formulated using trout or salmon DNA which has been highly purified, as these DNA fractions have the ability to successfully mirror our own DNA. This level of bioavailability means that they can quickly get to work to enhance the overall health of the skin safely. Polynucleotides are incredibly safe and when administered by an experienced aesthetic professional can provide excellent outcomes with little to no downtime.
How Do POLYNUCLEOTIDES Treatments Work?
POLYNUCLEOTIDES treatments work to stimulate the body's natural collagen and elastin producing processes, both of which are powerful proteins that work to maintain the firmness and elasticity of the skin. As part of the ageing process, our natural ability to produce these important proteins starts to diminish, which is how lines and wrinkles start to develop.
POLYNUCLEOTIDES treatments work at a cellular level to enhance skin health, which provides noticeable improvements to the tone and texture of the skin on the surface. As such, it can take up to three months to see the full effects of POLYNUCLEOTIDES treatment, during which time you will gradually see your skin becoming firmer, smoothed, and more radiant.
What are the Benefits of Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides work using a complex biological process to produce a number of key skin benefits.
1. Elastin and Collagen Stimulation
Polynucleotides help to reverse the loss of key elastin and collagen proteins, to improve elasticity and deliver more structural support in ways that are aligned with the natural properties of the skin.
2. Promotes Cellular Regeneration
Polynucleotides stimulate the renewal and repair of skin cells, which works to combat damage caused by external stressors, such as environmental factors and free radicals. Following POLYNUCLEOTIDES treatments, patients notice that their skin appears brighter and more radiant, in part thanks to this cell regeneration process. Polynucleotides can also reduce the appearance of acne scarring, pigmentation and sun damage, resulting in a more even complexion.
3. Improved Texture and Hydration
Healthy skin cells have the ability to retain moisture, which improves the texture of the skin and offers a naturally plump appearance.
Improving Skin Health From Within
Rather than using dermal fillers to add volume to the skin or Botox to smooth the appearance of lines and wrinkles, polynucleotide treatments instead work to improve skin health on a therapeutic level.
