Polynucleotides – Beaconsfield

What are Polynucleotides?

Are Polynucleotides better than Profhilo?

Polynucleotides are similar to Profhilo and other skin boosters, but contain different properties. They can work on more areas, including all around the eyes as well as the chest and scalp. PNs can also work on sun damage. Just like Profhilo, the PNs will give a wonderful glow and plumpness to the skin, but they also significantly improve the skin’s texture, as well as smooth out fine lines above the lips and around the eyes. The results tend to last 6-9 months, depending on the quality and age of the skin being treated, whereas Profhilo would generally show results for around 3 months.

What is the downtime, and are there contraindications?

Polynucleotide treatments are minimally invasive, and most of our patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. There might be some mild redness, swelling, or tenderness at the treated areas, but these effects typically subside within a few hours or a day.

However, there are some contraindications to be aware of:

• Pregnancy or Breastfeeding: Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to lack of safety data.
• Active Skin Infections: Avoid treatment if you have active acne, eczema, or other skin infections in the treated area.
• Allergies: Individuals with known allergies to any component of the treatment should consult with us beforehand.

Polynucleotide (PN) injections are a cutting-edge, non-surgical treatment designed to enhance skin quality and promote rejuvenation. Made from natural nucleotides, these injections help stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, elasticity, and hydration. We use them to treat fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity, leaving the skin looking refreshed and revitalised.

Polynucleotide injections work by delivering regenerative molecules directly into the skin. These nucleotides promote the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining youthful skin. By boosting the skin’s regenerative process, PN injections help restore skin firmness, elasticity, and overall radiance.

Polynucleotide injections are effective for a range of skin concerns, including:

Fine lines and wrinkles
Loss of skin elasticity and firmness
Dull or uneven skin tone
Sagging skin or mild skin laxity
Dehydrated or dry skin
Overall skin texture improvement
Sun damage
Acne Scars

The treatment begins with a consultation by our paramedical skin therapist to assess your skin’s needs. After a thorough cleansing, the polynucleotide solution is injected into the skin using a fine needle. The treatment is quick, typically taking around 30 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. A numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort during the procedure.

One of the key benefits of polynucleotide injections is that there is minimal downtime. You may experience slight redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection sites, but these side effects typically subside within a few hours to a day. Most of our clients resume normal activities immediately after the treatment.

For the best results, a series of 3 sessions in a course, spaced about 2 to 4 weeks apart, is typically recommended. Maintenance treatments may be advised every 6 to 12 months to sustain the rejuvenating effects of the treatment. However, you will notice clearer and brighter skin after just one session.

Yes, polynucleotide injections are safe. The treatment is non-invasive and uses naturally derived substances, making it suitable for most skin types. At Skin Revision, we have been performing skin boosters for many years with the very highest level of safety and success.

While results vary from person to person, many of our clients begin to see improvements in skin texture, hydration, and radiance after just one session. Full results typically appear within 1 to 2 months after the final treatment, with long-lasting benefits continuing for up to 6 months or more.

Most clients find polynucleotide injections to be relatively comfortable. A numbing cream is applied to the skin prior to the treatment to reduce any mild discomfort. While there may be slight pressure or a mild pinching sensation during the injections, the procedure is well-tolerated by our clients.

The results from polynucleotide injections can last for up to 6 months or longer, depending on your skin type and the specific concerns being addressed. For long-lasting results, maintenance sessions every 6 to 9 months are recommended to keep your skin looking youthful and rejuvenated.
