Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides have been used in medicine for many decades. However, they have only recently been rediscovered and perfected to create the most exciting and new category of aesthetic medicine treatments. They are long chains of nucleotides that make up DNA and RNA molecules. They are developed by biotechnology, utilising the sperm of fresh water salmon or trout.

The polynucleotides sit into and activate receptors on our fibroblasts (skin stem cells). As we age, our fibroblasts become sluggish or go to sleep. This treatment springs them back into action. By stimulating fibroblasts, they boost collagen production, improve elasticity and increase hydration. They also calm inflammation and rebalance melanocyte activity to create an even and refreshed skin tone

Polynucleotides can be used to treat many different areas and indications. We have formulations for the skin, for the scalp, for the delicate eye area, and for intimacy areas.

• Skin: Face, neck, decolletage, hands, arms, elbows, abdomen, thighs, and knees.
• Eyes: We have a special formulation for the delicate eye area, which includes the under eye, the upper eyelid, the crows feet area, and the eyebrows.
• Hair: We have a special formulation for the scalp which can also be used in the eyebrows.
• Intimacy: We have a special formulation for intimate areas such as the superficial layers of the skin and mucosa of the female external genitalia.

If you are not aware, Dr O’Gorman is a great believer in combining various treatments to deliver the very best results. Polynucleotides are ideally placed to be combined with other treatments:

• Our polynucleotides are also available in a formulation already combined with hyaluronic acid skin hydration booster. This is a great option for the neck, decolletage, and hands, or any area requiring an extra hydration boost.
• Exosomes are a great accompaniment as they provide the building blocks essential for the collagen and elastin production.
• Polynucleotides to the scalp can also be combined with microneedling, exosomes and red / near infrared LED light therapy.
• Both polynucleotides and exosomes can be a great accompaniment to device treatments, particularly those that are focused on skin tightening or skin resurfacing such as Dr O’Gorman’s Venus Viva RF resurfacing and Venus Tribella (RF tightening, RF resurfacing, IPL vascular + pigment all in 1).
