Biostimulation with polynucleotides is one of our favorite methods for rejuvenating the appearance and improving the quality of the skin. The procedures does not only tighten and thicken the skin, but also lead to natural lifting effect prevent flabbiness, moisturize, protect and restore the skin.

What are polynucleotides?

Nucleotides or polynucleotides (PDRNs) are biopolymers, as is hyaluronic acid. They consist of links of two different nucleic acids DNA and RNA, which are extracted from the milk of trout, salmon or sturgeon fish. Why fish? The DNA structure of the milk of these fish species is as similar as possible to the DNA of human leukocytes. And for humans, their use is completely safe.

One of the mechanisms of skin aging is the accumulation of various damages in the structure of DNA and RNA molecules of the cell. So-called “breakdowns” begin in their molecules, which triggers the mechanisms of cell death. And from that moment aging begins. The effect of polynucleotides in special preparations is that they restore existing damage by replacing broken nucleotides in DNA and RNA. Their main function is to recognize and repair damage.

How safe is PDRN Therapy?

There is absolutely no reason to be worried. Molecules in PDRN products for aesthetic medicine are negligible (50-20,000 pairs of nucleotides) compared to the several million pairs of nucleotides that form genes. Therefore, they are not able to transfer and modify genetic information. In this case, polynucleotides work as a kind of “repair agent” – they restore only damaged nucleotides. Thus, we can talk about the safety of products based on PDRN.

How does it work?

Possessing an immunomodulatory effect, polynucleotides stimulate the processes of regeneration and repair, enhance the synthesis of elastin, collagen and non-collagen molecules. Promotes optimal hydration, as well as protection against UVA and UVB. Which in turn leads to a general improvement in skin condition, rejuvenation and lifting effect. At the same time, polynucleotides are able to adsorb and neutralize free radicals, cleansing the skin of toxins. The indisputable advantage of polynucleotides is the ability to stimulate physiological processes, rejuvenating not only the appearance, but the entire body. Smart acids provoke the growth of young functional structures, and do not squeeze out the last forces from the existing ones, which can no longer provide the skin with hyaluronic acid.

 

Which parts of the body can be treated?

  • Face. PDRN can be used to improve the appearance of the face, area around the eyes
  • Neck and décolletage. PDRN injections can help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the neck and décolletage area, improving the overall texture and appearance of the skin.
  • Hands. PDRN can be used to reduce the appearance of age spots and improve skin texture on the hands.
  • Scalp. PDRN bio-stimulating properties make it a useful treatment for scalp issues such as hair loss and thinning.
  • Abdomen and thighs. PDRN can be used to reduce the appearance of cellulite and improve skin texture on the abdomen and thighs.

What are the benefits?

PDRN provides deep skin hydration, smoothing of fine lines and wrinkles, boosting of collagen and elastin levels and dermal remodelling over time. Your complexion will appear healthy, hydrated and glowing with improved elasticity.

PDRN molecules are able to stimulate the metabolic activity of cells in your skin to regenerate collagen. It can also stimulate wound recovery through boosting the rate of growth of fibroblasts, the cells mainly responsible for collagen production. PDRN treatment has primary effects:

  • Encourage intense skin repair
  • Reduce the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks
  • Minimises pores
  • Reduce wrinkles, fine lines
  • Boost cell renewal & new cell growth
  • Stimulate collagen production
  • Improve skin elasticity and hydration
  • Reduce the eye bags, dark circles, fine lines around eyes
  • Help to stop hair thinning and treat androgen alopecia,  stimulate hair growth

How many sessions do I need?

It is recommended to have  3-4 treatments every 2 – 4 weeks. Your doctor will be able to best recommend the frequency of treatments according to your skin condition, area and injectable.

How long do results last?

PDRN therapy is a long lasting treatment upon consistent treatment sessions. Results can be seen from the first session, and long-lasting biostimulation effects are achieved after the initial phase of 2-3 sessions at 1 month apart.

What injectables do we use in our clinic?

The PLINEST line is a unique development of the Italian biopharmaceutical company Mastelli, designed for biorevitalization of the skin by activating its own cellular resources. By intradermal administration and by direct stimulation of fibroblasts, the active ingredients of the drug trigger cell regeneration and active collagen production.

 

PLINEST

 

The original Plinest works as a powerful skin healing and rejuvenation booster. It is suitable for most skin across all age groups and gender. Once injected, the polynucleotides in Plinest trigger collagen production and fibroblast (a type of cell that contributes to skin healing), which makes your cells recover and restore naturally.

Over time this increased fibroblast activity and collagen production accelerates skin repair, resulting in better skin radiance, youthful skin texture plus improved skin rigidity and elasticity.

The amount and frequency of injections would depend on your skin condition and your desired results. As it is a natural process, results are not immediate but patients will experience tremendous improvements over 2-3 months.

 

PLINEST NEWEST

 

Plinest Newest is a variation that includes hyaluronic acid (HA).

The combination of Hyaluronic Acid, and Mannitol enhance hydration under the skin, give better lift and boost skin radiance for patients with dry and wrinkled skin. Like all Plinest range of products, at its core, Newest promotes bio-revitalisation to reverse signs of aging. The HA and Mannitol support the regeneration triggered by the polynucleotides by adding volume and moisture.

 

PLINEST FAST

 

Plinest Fast is intended for biorevitalization and bioreparation procedures for young skin (from 25 years old), for delicate areas with thin and delicate skin, including the area around the eyes and for the scalp. Indicated for the prevention of early wrinkles, activation of the immune systems of the skin, antioxidant and restorative effects.

 

PLINEST EYE

 

PlinestEye targets the eyebags. It revives tired-looking eyes and reduces dark eye circles. Similarly to the original Plinest, it works as an activator of tissue regeneration but is formulated to be injected into the hollows midway between the lower lids and the cheeks, lessening the appearance of the tear troughs as well as indented shadows under the eyes, aka undereye bags.

 

PLINEST HAIR

 

Plinest Hair contains formulation for stimulating cell growth and regeneration in hair follicles. Injected into the scalp, the polynucleotides strengthen hair and help control female hormonal hair loss.

 

Nucleofill is a cutting-edge range of cosmetic products that harness the power of natural polynucleotides to protect and rejuvenate the skin. By leveraging the latest advances in biochemistry, Nucleofill has been engineered to provide bio-revitalizing effects that can help to counteract the signs of aging and other environmental stresses that can damage the skin. Nucleofill contains high molecular weight polynucleotide chains, whose biochemical peculiarities make it highly viscoelastic. This means it is capable of binding a considerable amount of water molecules, which are primarily retained in the hydrophilic groups level of phosphorylated sugars of the individual nucleotides.

 

NUCLEOFILL is a next-generation biostimulation treatment that is injected to stimulate production of new collagen and elastin in the dermis of the skin and actively soften the signs of ageing in decreasing the appearance of fine lines and plump the skin.  Nucleofill can also be injected in the scalp where it may improve blood supply and hair growth over time.

 

Nucleofill Strong has been developed by the manufacturer Promoitalia Medical Aesthetics to visibly and also noticeably improve the face and body on several levels at once. This not only affects moderate to deep wrinkles around the nose, which mainly include nasolabial folds, but also extensive, long scars and stretch marks elsewhere on the body. In addition, the skin in areas such as the neck, décolleté, hands, genital area, thighs and buttocks can be effectively tightened or reshaped. 

 

Nucleofill Soft Plus Eyes is gained for rejuvenation the skin around the eyes. Whether it is small wrinkles or dark circles under the eyes that detract from the otherwise beautiful appearance of the skin, all of these imperfections can be perfectly treated with this mesotherapeutic dermal filler. In addition, hyperpigmentation on other parts of the face can be reduced to a minor degree with this product, which incidentally is based on polymerised polynucleotides. After only a few treatment sessions, the eye area appears youthful and radiant again. 

 

Nucleofill Medium is a powerful product, which has a perfect effect on the surface of the skin on the basis of polynucleotides. However, it not only reduces wrinkles of medium depth, medium-sized scars and stretch marks on the thighs and buttocks, but also effectively tightens sagging skin on any other areas, including the décolleté, the hands and the intimate area. Using a mesotherapy treatment, NucleoFill Medium deeply regenerates the skin, making the outer appearance look much younger. In addition, Nucleofill Medium also provides protection against free radicals and the effects of oxidative stress. 

 

Nucleofill Medium Plus Hair is designed to increase hair growth and prevent hair loss. It has shown significan

t efficacy in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia and in all cases of hair weakening. Androgenetic alopecia is the main cause of progressive thinning of the hair however Nucelofill Medium Plus works to improve the tropism of the hair follicle thanks to its deep and continuous bio-restructuring effect.

PDRN injections Vs biorevitalization, what is the difference?

The main ingredient in biorevitalization is pure concentrated hyaluronic acid while PDRN injections is a bio-stimulant gel made from polynucleotides.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring compound found in skin, muscle, and joints. The ability of HA to readily bind to water molecules and HA being able to draw up to 1000 times its weight in water, makes biorevitalization ideal for providing excellent hydration to the skin. The high concentration of pure HA in biorevitalization is also able to encourage bio-remodeling via inducing the body’s natural healing response to increase collagen and elastin by stimulating fibroblast cells, improving the skin’s structure, elasticity, and firmness, giving the skin a plump and dewy look.

While PDRN are also able to bind to water to provide deep hydration to the skin, they not draw in as much water as biorevitalization. Thus, PDRN may be more suitable for areas of the face with thinner skin where excessive water retention is undesirable.

Unlike biorevitalization, PDRN therapy is a bio-stimulant capable of activating fibroblast cells into type I collagen and elastin producing myofibroblasts by directly stimulates specific receptors on the fibroblast cells, achieving bio-regeneration and rejuvenation of the skin due to the sustained and increased production of collagen by myofibroblasts. Results for PDRN therapy also typically last longer than biorevitalization.

In summary, these two treatments are compatible with each other and can be combined for better results.

Recommendations after the treatment

  • Immediately after tissue stimulating injections the treatment area may be red, tender or swollen. There may be red raised bumps in the injection sites, these effects will usually be resolved by 2 days.
  • For significant swelling contact your doctor for advice. Swelling may be reduced by regular cold compress, anti-inflammatory medicines such as Ibuprofen (after 24 hours, if safe for you to take), antihistamines and sleeping with your head propped up on 3 pillows to help drainage of fluid overnight.
  • Bruising may occur following treatment, bruising will resolve naturally but may take up to 2 weeks to settle.
  • Regular application of Arnica cream may be helpful for bruising.
  • Avoid any makeup for 24 hours after treatment as this will reduce the risk of infection or acne.
  • Drink plenty of water after treatment to keep well hydrated.
  • Avoid alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours after treatment.
  • Avoid medications such as aspirin or Ibuprofen for 24 hours as they are blood thinning agents and may worsen bruising (if these medications have been advised by your GP you must check with your GP before stopping them)
  • Avoid any excess sun exposure, extremes of hot/cold, saunas, swimming or strenuous exercise until the redness and swelling has settled.
