Kai EDITION - The Future of Skin Rejuvenation: The Polynucleotide Salmon Sperm DNA Miracle
Polynucleotide treatments are the latest innovation in skin rejuvenation, offering a unique approach to skin repair and anti-aging. Promoted in reputable publications like Vogue, Harpers Bazaar and Glamour, Polynucleotides help repair damaged tissue by promoting collagen production and boosting the skin's natural healing process.
What are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are naturally occurring DNA fragments composed of long chains of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of genetic material. Once injected into the skin, polynucleotides help repair and regenerate skin tissue by promoting cell growth, improving hydration, and stimulating collagen production. The treatment is commonly used for skin rejuvenation, reducing discolouration, improving pores and scarring, reducing wrinkles, and enhancing overall skin elasticity and texture.
Why is it called ‘Salmon Sperm’?
Polynucleotide DNA fragments are derived from salmon sperm. While the term ‘Salmon Sperm’ is often used, it is important to note that this treatment undergo extensive purification processes to remove any residual fish proteins or other biological materials. This ensures that only the DNA fragments, which are biocompatible and safe, are retained. As a result, the final product is highly purified, minimising the risk of allergic reactions or contamination while maintaining its regenerative and healing properties for skin treatments.
How is it different from other treatments?
Unlike other treatments, Polynucleotide are popular as it only contains natural, biocompatible ingredients. This means there is no risk of altering your facial muscles (ptosis/drooping as seen with poorly administered anti-wrinkle treatments) or compressing blood vessels (vascular occlusion - as seen with poorly administered dermal fillers).
Key Benefits of Polynucleotide Treatments
Skin Repair and Rejuvenation: Polynucleotides enhance the skin’s ability to repair itself by stimulating fibroblast activity, leading to increased collagen production. This helps improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
Hydration Boost: They increase the skin’s moisture retention, leading to plumper, smoother skin that looks healthier and more radiant.
Anti-inflammatory Properties: Polynucleotides help reduce inflammation in the skin, making them effective in treating various skin conditions like acne scars, rosacea, and redness.
Natural-Looking Results: Unlike dermal fillers that add volume, polynucleotide treatments improve skin quality over time, delivering subtle yet effective improvements that look natural.
Minimal Downtime: These treatments are non-invasive and typically involve little to no downtime. Most patients can resume their normal activities within a day or two, making it a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.
What Conditions Do Polynucleotide Treatments Address?
Polynucleotide treatments are versatile and can address a range of skin concerns:
Fine lines and wrinkles
Dull or sagging skin
Acne scars and other types of scarring
Sun damage and pigmentation
Rosacea and skin redness
Enlarged pores
Treatment Process
A polynucleotide treatment typically involves a series of microinjections into the targeted areas, such as the face, neck, hands, or décolletage. The injections deliver polynucleotides deep into the skin, allowing them to work at the cellular level. This is done awake with a numbing cream, so you can be in and out in under an hour! Over time, the skin appears fresher, more youthful, and revitalised.
Results and Aftercare
The benefits of polynucleotide treatments are cumulative, meaning improvements become more noticeable with each session. For the best initial results, it is advised to do three treatments, each treatment being three weeks apart. Results can last up to a year, with many patients experiencing continued improvements in skin quality over time. Aftercare typically involves keeping the treated area clean, applying soothing creams, and avoiding excessive sun exposure.
Polynucleotide treatments offer a safe, effective, and natural solution to combat aging and improve overall skin health. Whether you're looking to address specific skin concerns or simply want to enhance your skin’s appearance, polynucleotides could be the future of your skincare regimen.
