polynucleotides

In aesthetics, polynucleotides refer to a class of injectable treatments derived from DNA fragments that are used to rejuvenate and repair the skin. Polynucleotide-based treatments are sometimes known as "bio-revitalisation" treatments and work on the principle of stimulating skin repair processes, enhancing hydration, and improving skin elasticity and texture.

Here’s how they work in an aesthetic context:

Hydration and Plumping: Polynucleotides attract water molecules, increasing skin hydration, which helps to smooth and plump the skin, making it look more youthful and refreshed.

Tissue Repair and Regeneration: Polynucleotides can help repair damaged skin cells and promote the regeneration of collagen and elastin, which are essential for skin firmness and elasticity.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Polynucleotides have anti-inflammatory properties, which can aid in soothing irritated skin and reducing inflammation, making them suitable for sensitive skin types.

Free Radical Scavenging: Polynucleotides are known to help in scavenging free radicals, which protects the skin from environmental damage and slows down the ageing process.

Polynucleotide treatments are often marketed under different brand names and can be used to address fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and general skin aging. They are typically injected into the dermal layer of the skin and can be used on the face, neck, and hands for rejuvenating effects.

These treatments are ideal for people looking for natural, gradual improvements in their skin quality rather than dramatic changes.
