Realistic Expectations in Aesthetics – Ep 4 ❤️
Polynucleotides: what they do (and what they don’t)
Polynucleotides are often talked about as a “skin-tightening” or “lifting” treatment, but that’s not what they’re designed to do 😬
They work by supporting skin repair and regeneration, helping to improve hydration, elasticity, texture, and overall skin quality gradually over time.
That’s why results aren’t instant, and why they’re best suited to people who want healthier, more resilient skin rather than immediate lifting or dramatic change.
Polynucleotides have been used in medicine for decades, particularly in tissue repair, and when used appropriately in aesthetics, they can be a valuable part of a long-term skin plan.
✨ Particularly suited to:
• Thin or crepey skin
• Dehydrated or dull skin
• Early signs of ageing
• Post-inflammatory or stressed skin
• Patients wanting subtle, regenerative improvements
Education should always come before treatment 🫶🏻✨
