What Are Polynucleotides?
The Secret to Youthful, Rejuvenated Skin
Are you looking for a way to give your skin a natural, youthful boost without going under the knife? Well, the wonder of polynucleotides could be your skin’s new best friend!
What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are like nature’s very own skin rejuvenators. To simplify the science, they’re long chains of nucleotides (DNA’s building blocks) that work their magic from deep within your skin. Think of them as personal trainers for your skin cells, encouraging them to shape up and look their best from the inside to the outside.
How Do Polynucleotides Work Their Magic?
These incredible little ‘boosters’ kickstart your skin’s regeneration process by:
- Boosting collagen and elastin production
- Encouraging cell growth
- Improving tissue regeneration
- Keeping skin hydrated
- Tackling inflammation and free radicals (unstable molecules that are highly reactive and capable of damaging cells, proteins, and DNA in the body).
Where Can You Use Polynucleotides?
The beauty of polynucleotides is their versatility. In the non-surgical aesthetics industry, they can be used for rejuvenating many parts of the body, including the following:
- Face (such as those delicate under-eye areas, cheekbones, and forehead)
- Neck
- Décolletage
- Upper arms
- Thighs
- Lips
- Even your hair and eyebrows!
Why Choose Polynucleotides?
There are many personal reasons why you might consider a polynucleotide treatment.
- Natural-Looking Results: No ‘overdone’ or false appearances – just a fresher, more youthful you
- Skin Rejuvenation: Improving your overall skin quality, texture, and tone
- Wrinkle Reduction: Smooth out those fine lines and wrinkles
- Hydration Boost: Supple, hydrated skin
- Versatility: Tackle everything from loss of elasticity to redness and sensitivity
- Minimal Downtime: Unlike more invasive procedures, you won’t be hiding away for weeks
- Long-Lasting Effects: Results can last anywhere from 6 to 12 months.
Polynucleotides vs Fillers: What’s the Difference?
Now, you might wonder, ‘How do polynucleotides compare to the fillers?’ Great question!
When it comes to longevity, polynucleotides are in it for the long haul. An initial treatment programme will typically consist of three sessions per month until you feel you have met your skin goals. From this point, you can enter a maintenance programme of treatments every three to twelve months, depending on the look you desire. Because polynucleotides provide long-term regenerative effects, there are fewer visits to ‘top up’ your appearance compared to traditional fillers. On the other hand, dermal fillers typically need a bit more maintenance, with effects usually lasting about 6-12 months.
In terms of effectiveness, polynucleotides are like a friend who encourages you to make lasting lifestyle changes rather than quick fixes. They work gradually, targeting the root causes of ageing by stimulating your skin’s natural repair processes. This means smoother, more elastic tissue over time. Fillers are more like your friend who can give you an instant makeover – they offer immediate volume restoration and wrinkle reduction, which is excellent for those areas needing a quick boost.
Polynucleotide treatments are perfect for women in their 40s who want to delay the effects of ageing. Treatments are also suitable for older women who want to use PhilArt in conjunction with dermal fillers to improve the skin’s life, volume and overall quality.
The Croma PhilArt Advantage
Here at Dr Camilla Hill’s Facial Aesthetic Clinic, we use Croma PhilArt polynucleotide treatments. And guess what? Croma is the only company that’s created a polynucleotide that is safe for use on eyelids, making that delicate eye area accessible for treatment, too.
Minimal Downtime, Maximum Results
One of the best things about polynucleotide treatments is minimal downtime. With PhilArt treatments on the face, hands, or décolletage, you’re looking at a few hours at the most. Even for the eye area, the only side effect might be a bit of puffiness that lasts a day or two. So, polynucleotide treatments are perfect for fitting into your busy lifestyle.
Is It Right for You?
The great news is that polynucleotide treatments have few contraindications, making them suitable for most people and skin types. And you can’t overdose on them! This means we can treat multiple areas simultaneously, and you can have treatments as often as you like to speed up the results.
