Polynucleotides (PN)

What They Are

Polynucleotides are bio-stimulating injectable treatments derived from highly purified DNA fragments. These DNA fragments are sourced from fish (salmon) DNA, which is processed and refined to remove proteins and impurities, making it suitable for medical and aesthetic use.

The structure of polynucleotides allows them to support skin repair processes, improve skin quality, and enhance tissue resilience over time.

How They Work

PN treatments support cellular repair mechanisms, improve skin quality, and help strengthen the skin barrier. They are particularly suited to delicate areas such as the under-eye region.

How Treatment Is Administered

Polynucleotides are administered via superficial injections into targeted areas. Treatments are usually delivered as a course.

Expected Outcomes

  • Improved skin texture

  • Enhanced elasticity

  • Reduction in crepiness or skin thinning

Improvements develop progressively over time.

Longevity

Results typically last 4–6 months, with maintenance treatments advised.

Risks and Possible Side Effects

  • Mild swelling or redness

  • Temporary bruising

  • Injection site discomfort

Important Information

Polynucleotide treatments are derived from purified fish (salmon) DNA. While these products are highly refined and allergy reactions are rare, they may not be suitable for individuals with known fish allergies. In addition, patients with dietary, ethical, or lifestyle preferences that preclude the use of animal-derived products should inform us during consultation. Alternative treatment options can be discussed where appropriate.
