Optimising Aesthetic Outcomes:

Combining Polynucleotides with Aesthetic Devices

Team SAS understand that in the the ever-evolving world of aesthetic tweakments, the best results results often require a multi-faceted approach. As new treatments and technologies emerge, Dr Mahsa prides herself on her passion for continually exploring ways to enhance outcomes for her patients; developing bespoke protocols and cutting- edge combination treatments you won’t find anywhere else.

An example of one of Dr Mahsa’s favourite combination approaches is the use of polynucleotides alongside aesthetic devices. Individually impressive but even better together, double-teaming polynucleotides alongside the cutting-edge aesthetic devices you’ll find at SAS supercharges your results; significantly improving the effectiveness of your treatments.

What are polynucleotides & why are they having a moment right now?

Polynucleotides are a relatively new addition to aesthetic practitioners’ toolboxes… but are an injectable treatment that’s gathered heaps of attention online due to celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Katie Piper and Jennifer Anniston taking to the internet to rave about the results of their ‘salmon sperm facials.’ Polynucleotides are naturally occurring biopolymers, composed of long chains of nucleotides… which make up the building blocks of our cells’ DNA and RNA. When administered to the skin, polynucleotides have been found to stimulate tissue regeneration, improve hydration and enhance skin elasticity – achieving some remarkable transformations and creating a strong base from which to work from with other aesthetic tweakments in the future.

Polynucleotide treatments work by promoting fibroblast activity, which in turn boosts collagen and elastin production – key factors in maintaining youthful, healthy skin. Unlike other injectable treatments that focus on volumising (think: dermal fillers) or freezing muscles (think: Botox ) polynucleotides are more like a skin booster; targeting the deeper layers of the skin to rejuvenate it from within.

They help repair damaged cells, reduce inflammation and improve overall skin health. This makes them an ideal add-on to treatments with aesthetic devices, which often focus on stimulating the skin through thermal or mechanical means. Polynucleotides can expedite healing and reduce swelling / downtime post-treatment.

The role of aesthetic devices and treatments

Aesthetic devices such as lasers, radiofrequency (RF) machines , microneedling pens , and ultrasound devices are designed to stimulate your skin’s natural healing processes. These treatments work by creating controlled damage to the skin, prompting your body to produce new collagen and elastin… resulting in firmer, smoother and often more youthful-looking skin.

Whilst these devices are highly effective on their own – with Dr Mahsa able to achieve some fantastic results using them, their impact can sometimes be limited by the skin’s natural regenerative capacity. And at SAS, we offer supercharged results as standard. This is where the use of polynucleotides at SAS Aesthetics comes in. By enhancing the skin’s ability to heal and regenerate, polynucleotides can amplify the effects of these devices, leading to better overall outcomes.

Injectables and aesthetic devices

When used together, polynucleotides and aesthetic devices work in powerful harmony; complementing each other perfectly to optimise treatment outcomes:

Enhanced collagen production: Aesthetic devices stimulate collagen production by
creating micro-injuries in the skin…. With the addition of polynucleotides then further enhancing this process by promoting fibroblast activity; which is crucial for collagen synthesis. This dual action can lead to more significant improvements in skin texture, firmness and elasticity.

Accelerated healing: Post-microneedling or laser resurfacing, your skin can be red or swollen; requiring time to heal and incurring downtime. Polynucleotides can speed up the healing process by reducing inflammation and repairing damaged cells more efficiently. This means patients experience less downtime and witness quicker results.

Improved hydration and skin elasticity: Polynucleotides are renowned for their ability to deeply hydrate the skin and improve elasticity. When used in conjunction with devices like RF MicroneedlingRF (we love Sylfirm X at SAS) or ultrasound devices such as Sofwave, which often target deeper skin layers, the overall hydration and elasticity of the skin are significantly enhanced; leading to a more youthful appearance.

Longer-lasting results that patients love: The regenerative effects of polynucleotides can extend the longevity of the results you get from your aesthetic treatments. By continuously supporting skin health and collagen production, polynucleotides help maintain the benefits of these treatments for a longer period; reducing the need for top-ups.

Dr Mahsa uses her years’ of experience to craft bespoke treatment plans for her patients; matching aesthetic devices and injectables to suit your individual skin’s needs.

Combining polynucleotides with aesthetic devices represents an exciting new era of bespoke treatment protocols and optimised outcomes for patients. By harnessing the regenerative power of polynucleotides and the stimulating effects of aesthetic devices, SAS are proud to offer you, our patients, more effective and longer-lasting results.
