Polynucleotides Treatment in London

Dermal fillers typically focus on addressing volume loss. Polynucleotide treatment focuses on enhancing the skin’s natural regeneration capabilities and improving the skin’s overall health and appearance from within. 

Dermal fillers are usually made from a synthetic version of hyaluronic acid and act as ‘implants’ in the skin to volumise, hydrate and improve skin folds, wrinkles etc. Whilst dermal fillers can be amazing for some skin concerns there are occasions when a dermal filler is not the right choice and polynucleotides are more appropriate. 

Polynucleotides are used to rejuvenate the skin and improve overall skin quality whilst dermal fillers add volume to treated areas, to give structure, definition, and contour to the face. Dermal fillers are immediate and effective at restoring lost volume, which can give a dramatic anti-aging effect. Polynucleotides, on the other hand, work gradually and subtlety over time, targeting the underlying causes of aging for more lasting changes. 

Yes! During your initial consultation with our NEO specialist, you will be able to explore all the options available to you to achieve your desired outcomes. Polynucleotide injections can be used in combination with a range of other treatments available at NEO Health Clinic including Anti-Wrinkle Injections, Dermal Fillers, Profhilo and Radiofrequency Microneedling.

As polynucleotide injections can improve skin texture and function, positive results can be achieved in many areas of the body. Polynucleotide injections are particularly popular under the eye area where it can improve the skin strength and integrity.

In addition, positive results can be achieved in other areas of the face including the cheekbones, forehead, jawline and mouth. Beyond the face, polynucleotide injections can also be used in areas of the body prone to loose skin including the abdomen, above the knee, decolletage, inner arm, neck, jawline, neck and cheekbones. 

At NEO Health Clinic, we understand that everyone is unique and may require different preferences. Generally, for the best results, we recommend two to three treatment sessions are administered approximately four weeks apart. 

The procedure usually takes 15-30 minutes with little to no recovery time.

Polynucleotide treatment is not painful, but every individual’s pain tolerance can differ. Some people may feel a slight sting as the needle is injected. Besides that, this treatment is quick and easy. As with all injectable treatments, there is a risk of bruising where the injection site occurs which may cause temporary swelling. 

Besides staying outside in extreme weather conditions, cold or hot, it is important not to massage or manipulate the treated area. After the polynucleotide treatment, you may return to doing ‘light’ daily activities immediately after your procedure. 

Typically the polynucleotides progressively develops over the first 12 weeks following the initial treatment, and you may see an early improvement shortly after the first session. For some of our clients, the positive outcomes of polynucleotides can last up to six months. To maintain the results, follow up treatments aligned to your personalised treatment plan are recommended.
