POLYNUCLEOTIDES
What are Polynucleotides?
They are biostimulators which means they regenerate your skin cells. They teach your skin cells to react like they did when they were younger! They are not a just a skin booster as they don’t just provide hydration- they nourish the skin helping them produce collagen and elastin for longer, which results in stronger, younger looking skin with less wrinkles. They also have amazing anti-inflammatory properties.
They target the cells that produce collagen and elastin (Fibroblasts) and this then promotes skin hydration and collagen synthesis. They also guard against free radicals (unstable molecules which accelerate ageing in the skin) and help build up the extra cellular matrix (ECM). ECM is a large network of proteins and molecules that surround, support and give structure to cells and tissues in the body. Its essential to have a high quality ECM for healthy skin.
Why have Polynucleotides?
They can be either a preventative treatment for younger patients’ skin or a recovery treatment for ageing skin. The surge in collagen production, hydration and elasticity means that polynucleotides are like a super charged injectable moisturiser.
They can be used to tackle any crepey skin on the face, neck or chest. They are very functional around the eyes to treat mild hollow and dark circles, particularly in those who might not be suitable for tear trough filler or might have a tendency to go puffy if treated with hyaluronic-acid based products.
Due to their anti-inflammatory properties, they are very successful at treating the symptoms of Rosacea. Rosacea is a long-term skin condition which results in redness across the nose, cheeks, forehead and chin.
