Polynucleotides

Initial improvements, such as enhanced hydration and a fresher glow, can often be seen within 2 to 14 days. The most significant results, from stimulated collagen and elastin, continue to develop over several weeks, with optimal results typically visible after one month.

The treatment area will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream can be applied for comfort. Using fine needles, small amounts of the polynucleotide solution are injected into the targeted areas of the skin. The procedure is precise and generally well-tolerated, taking approximately 30 minutes depending on the area treated.

Results from a polynucleotide treatment typically last between 3 to 6 months. As the effects are based on stimulating your skin’s natural regenerative processes, they gradually diminish over time. Maintenance treatments are recommended to sustain optimal results.

Common, temporary side effects may include mild redness, slight swelling, or small bumps at the injection sites immediately after the procedure. These usually resolve within 24 to 48 hours. Bruising is less common but can occur.

There is minimal social downtime. You can typically return to normal activities immediately after your appointment. Any temporary redness or swelling usually subsides within a day or two, making it easy to integrate the treatment into a busy schedule.

A course of 2 to 3 initial treatments, spaced approximately 4 weeks apart, is often recommended to achieve optimal and cumulative results. A single treatment will provide benefits, but a series works progressively to build collagen and repair tissue more effectively.

Following an initial course, maintenance treatments are recommended approximately every 6 months to sustain the rejuvenating effects. Your practitioner will create a personalised plan during your consultation based on your skin’s response and your aesthetic goals.
