Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides are a revolutionary advancement in regenerative medicine, designed to promote cellular turnover, enhance skin elasticity, and boost hydration. Ideal for those experiencing skin laxity, dehydration, and dullness, Polynucleotides effectively restore volume, smooth fine lines, and improve overall skin quality.

Common treatment areas include the face, neck, and delicate under-eye region, making them an excellent choice for individuals seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance.

A full Polynucleotide treatment typically consists of three sessions, spaced 2–4 weeks apart. This allows for optimal skin regeneration and long-lasting improvements. Maintenance sessions may be recommended every 4–6 months to sustain results.
