Polynucleotides from salmon sperm: A new trend or the key to natural beauty and youth?

Aesthetic medicine is constantly innovating, and polynucleotides from salmon sperm have become one of the most sought-after treatments in 2024. These natural molecules have attracted attention thanks to their ability to regenerate cells, stimulate collagen production, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. But how do polynucleotides differ from fillers and biostimulators, how do they work, and what are their benefits? Below, we reveal everything you need to know about this innovative treatment.

What are Polynucleotides?

Polynucleotides are long chains of nucleotides, the basic units of DNA and RNA, which have a remarkable ability to regenerate the skin. Their application in aesthetic medicine is based on their biostimulating effect, stimulating natural tissue renewal and improving skin elasticity.

The main advantages of polynucleotides:

• They stimulate the formation of new collagen
• Improve skin hydration and elasticity
• Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
• They help in the recovery of damaged skin (e.g. after laser treatments)
• They have a natural effect without adding volume, unlike hyaluronic fillers

Thanks to these advantages, polynucleotides have quickly become a natural alternative to classic fillers and are popular among patients who want to refresh their appearance without invasive procedures.

What does polynucleotide treatment look like?

The polynucleotide application process is simple and minimally invasive, and consists of several key steps:

1. Consultation – A dermatologist or aesthetic doctor assesses the condition of the skin and recommends treatment.
2. Preparation – Make-up is removed, and if necessary, an anesthetic cream is applied.
3. Polynucleotide injection – The substance is applied through small injections into the target areas (face, neck, décolleté, hands).
4. Post-treatment care – The patient receives instructions on skin care after the treatment.

The whole process takes about 30 minutes, and recovery is fast, with minimal side effects such as mild redness and swelling that disappear within a few days.

Why have polynucleotides become popular?

An increasing number of patients are turning to more natural and long-lasting methods of rejuvenation that do not change facial expressions, but gradually regenerate the skin from within.. Polynucleotides have proven to be the perfect compromise between fillers and biostimulators, as they provide gradual but long-term results.

The main reasons for their popularity:

• Natural look without adding volume
• Fast recovery and minimal risk of side effects
• Long-lasting effects as they stimulate the body’s own collagen production
• Can be combined with other treatments such as mesotherapy, laser and PRP

Possible side effects and safety of treatment

Although polynucleotides are extremely safe, it is important to be aware of possible side effects, which are generally mild and transient. After treatment, patients may experience:

• Mild swelling and redness (disappears within 24-48 hours)
• Skin sensitivity to touch
• Possibility of a minor hematoma at the injection site

To avoid any complications, it is recommended to avoid sunbathing, saunas and intense exercise during the first three days after the treatment.

Difference Between Polynucleotides, Fillers and Biostimulators

Polynucleotides are often compared to hyaluronic fillers and biostimulators, but their functions are different:

production

Treatment	Main effect	Duration of results
Polynucleotides	Biostimulation and regeneration of the skin	6-12 months
Hyaluronic fillers	Add volume and shape your face	6-18 months
Biostimulators (PRP, Radiesse)	Stimulating collagen	12-24 months

Polynucleotides do not increase volume like fillers, but improve the quality of the skin from the inside, thus achieving a more natural and long-lasting effect.

Frequently Asked Questions About Polynucleotide Treatment

1. How long does the polynucleotide effect last?

The results are visible after a few weeks, and the full effect is achieved after 2-3 months. The effect lasts 6-12 months, depending on the condition of the skin and the patient’s lifestyle.

2. Can polynucleotides replace fillers?

Polynucleotides do not add volume, but rather improve the quality of the skin, making them ideal for people who want a more natural look without an overly filled look.

3. How many treatments are needed?

2 to 3 treatments are recommended at an interval of 3 to 4 weeks to achieve an optimal result.

4. Are polynucleotides safe?

Yes, polynucleotides are biocompatible and degradable, which means they are naturally absorbed by the body without side effects.

5. Can I combine polynucleotides with other treatments?

Yes, they can be combined with lasers, mesotherapy, PRP, and microneedling to improve the end result.

Conclusion: Are polynucleotides the future of aesthetic medicine?

Polynucleotides from salmon sperm represent a revolutionary step in skin regeneration, enabling natural rejuvenation without invasive procedures. Their ability to stimulate collagen and renew cells makes them an ideal choice for people who want a long-lasting but subtle effect.
