Polynucleotides are a breakthrough treatment that can kickstart the regeneration of your skin and combat the signs of aging on the face and neck. This revolutionary treatment is an injectable biostimulator designed to support your skin’s cellular repair through triggering collagen and elastin production, not only giving you a youthful complexion but acting as a natural addition to your beauty routine.
Our clients choose our polynucleotide injectable treatment in areas such as around the eyes to reduce dark circles, fine lines, and hollowness, and it is a great alternative to dermal fillers.
Please note, all information included above and on this page is general advice and may vary depending on personal circumstances. Your exact treatment plan and options will be discussed during your consultation.
Polynucleotides are bioactive molecules naturally found in the DNA structure. These remarkable compounds play a crucial role in cellular repair and regeneration. In aesthetic medicine, polynucleotide injections have shown transformational results as an anti-aging method.
This non-invasive, minimally painful skin treatment has become very popular on social media, especially for around the undereyes, although it can be added to the face, neck and body, making it an extremely versatile treatment here at the Stockport clinic.
The polynucleotide treatment in our Stockport clinic is then administered using a micro-injection technique, which ensures precise delivery of the bioactive molecules to the targeted areas of your skin. Here are just a few ways this tailored treatment can work to rejuvenate your skin:
Repair, Regeneration and Healing: Polynucleotides stimulate and encourage your body to heal itself by replacing old and dead skin cells with new ones more efficiently and faster.
Anti-inflammatory: With this property, irritated skin will be no more. Making it a great treatment for those with sensitive skin.
Fibroblasts and Collagen: Polynuclotides stimulate fibroblasts and encourage collagen production. As we lose collagen with age, this treatment helps replace what we lose.
Hydration: Polynucleotides attract and bind with water molecules; in turn, this increases your skin’s moisture, leaving you looking brighter, smoother and revitalised.
As well as the effects of the treatment itself, one of the key benefits of Polynucleotides is that they can work in many areas where skin boosters can’t, including the eyes, neck, decolletage and hands. They make a popular under-eye treatment alternative to tear trough dermal fillers.
The key benefits of Polynucleotides treatments are:
At least 24 hours prior to your Polynucleotide treatment in Cheshire, avoid drinking alcohol and taking any blood-thinning medications such as ibuprofen or aspirin. Doing so can impose a number of risks, one of them being an increased risk of bruising (do not stop medication advised or prescribed by your doctor).
Immediately after your polynucleotides treatment, there may be slight redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness, and an itching sensation in the treated area. These signs are temporary and will resolve within 24-48 hours. To ensure the best outcome possible, be sure to follow the advice of your practitioner, and also adopt the following practices:
If the side effects persist beyond a 72-hour period or you have any concerns, please contact the clinic, and we will be happy to advise.
While some individuals notice improvements within a few hours after their polynucleotides treatment, the full benefits of this treatment typically become more noticeable within a few weeks. This timeframe will vary from person to person.
Results can vary depending on many factors; on average, the benefits of polynucleotides can last anywhere between 12 and 18 months. To maintain optimal results with us at The Clinic Cheshire, a follow-up treatment plan may be recommended to achieve your skin rejuvenation goals.
Side effects of polynucleotide treatments are generally minimal; however, patients may experience mild redness or swelling, which usually subside within a few days. You will also experience small papules where the polynucleotides have been injected that may last up to 72 hours. Our experienced aesthetic professionals will guide you through the recovery process.
If you have any additional questions about this treatment, please don’t hesitate to give our friendly team a call in or book a consultation in Cheshire. We can provide a personalised treatment plan tailored to your skin and desired outcomes.
While patients can notice results immediately after their polynucleotide treatment, your specific goals may require additional treatments, or you may just require a top-up every 12 to 18 months. For example, for a patient with dark undereyes, they may require 3 to 4 treatments before their goals are met, then they will only require a top-up every year. Our team will be able to customise a treatment plan for you so you can reach your desired results in the ideal and safe timeline.
While polynucleotide injections are a perfect natural option for anti-aging, there are several treatments we would recommend alongside them, such as Zaffiro, which works by naturally tightening the skin and inducing collagen production, or microneedling, which works by naturally reducing the appearance of fine lines, scars, and wrinkles.
We also offer anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers at our Cheshire clinic that are quick and effective and provide immediate results.
As we age, our collagen production naturally declines, which in turn affects our skin elasticity. This can result in darker circles, dull skin, fine lines and wrinkles, among other things. As polynucleotides are essentially a way to stimulate collagen among hydrating, healing and repairing dead cells, we are keeping our skin tight and maintaining our youthful appearance. It’s one of many of our anti-aging treatments that work in delaying the inevitable as naturally as possible.
