Polynucleotide treatment uses DNA fragments extracted from salmon to bio-stimulate positive changes in the skin. Polynucleotide solution has the ability to send signals to the skin at a cellular level to bring about the actions we would like it to perform. When it’s injected into the skin it:

Increases cellular turnover leading to fresher looking skin

Increases production of elastin to reduce skin laxity

Improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

Improves the micro-circulation to improve brightness

Reduces dark circles under the eyes

Keeps skin hydrated

Plumps the skin and reduces hollowness under the eyes

Avoid drinking any alcohol for 24 hours before treatment. Alcohol causes your blood vessels to dilate and widen increasing the risk of bruising.

Arrive with a clean face free of foundation. I will apply a numbing cream to the areas to be treated.

I recommend an initial course of treatments (usually 3 -4 depending on the condition of the skin) are carried out 2-3 weeks apart for optimum results. Followed by a treatment every 6 months to maintain the results.

You may feel a sharp scratch or stinging sensation, and feel discomfort as the product is injected.

You will likely have bumps that resemble bee stings at the injection sites and you may also have pin-pricks of blood following the treatment. As the polynucleotide is absorbed over the next few hours, the bumps will reduce.

Most people begin to see results after 3 weeks, but your skin will continue to improve with optimum results expected about 3 months after the course of treatment has been completed.

On average, results will last between 6-9 months. The longevity of the Polynucleotides depends on the individual patient, their age, lifestyle and skin type. I would recommend maintenance treatments every 6 months.
