Also known as the Salmon Sperm Facial, Polynucleotides are an injectable treatment that consist of biocompatible proteins sourced from fish DNA, commonly salmon sperm, which are closely identical to human DNA and therefore well-tolerated by the body. Once injected under the skin, it stimulates a cellular healing and renewal response which promotes collagen and elastin synthesis and improves tissue regeneration, encouraging healthier, resilient skin. In addition to this, Polynucleotides provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits which help shield the skin from environmental stressors and ageing whilst alleviating any redness or inflammation.

How are Polynucleotides different to typical skin boosters?
Polynucleotides are a type of skin booster that differ from traditional Hyaluronic Acid (HA) boosters. Unlike HA, which primarily hydrates the skin by retaining moisture, polynucleotides utilise nucleotides such as DNA and RNA to offer multiple skin benefits. These molecules work at a cellular level that go beyond hydration by delivering powerful anti-aging effects. One of their key advantages is the ability to enhance cellular communication. By stimulating fibroblast activity, they promote the natural production of collagen and elastin - two essential proteins responsible for skin firmness, elasticity, and overall resilience. This process helps to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and restore a youthful appearance over time.
Additionally, Polynucleotides can target areas of the face where typical boosters may be less effective, such as the lips, forehead, and under the eyes. Their regenerative properties make them particularly beneficial for addressing concerns like dark circles, fine lines, and loss of skin volume in these areas.
