What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides (PN) are naturally occurring molecules composed of long chains of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA and RNA. In aesthetics, polynucleotides are used for their regenerative and anti-ageing properties, offering a variety of skin benefits. PN in skincare and aesthetics are typically derived from salmon DNA or other natural sources. These molecules help stimulate cellular repair and regeneration, making them effective in treating signs of ageing and improving skin quality. They are a reasonably new to market treatment and have had their viral moment on social media.
How Polynucleotides Are Delivered
In aesthetic treatments, PN are typically administered through injectable techniques. The treatment involves tiny injections into the dermis to deliver the them directly where they are most needed. This process helps to rejuvenate the skin and can be used on the face, neck, and decolletage. Polynucleotide treatments are generally well tolerated, making them suitable for a wide range of skin types, including those with sensitive skin. Provided, of course, that you are not vegetarian!
