anti-ageing

This treatment is available at our Fitzrovia and Kensington Clinics

In the dynamic landscape of aesthetic advancements, a ground-breaking solution has emerged to redefine the standards of skin rejuvenation – Polynucleotide injectable treatments. Polynucleotides are the future of regenerative injectables. This treatment has now launched at Cavendish Clinic in Fitzrovia and Kensington and here’s why we love it. It helps to enhance skin elasticity and firmness for the appearance of a more youthful and radiant complexion. But what exactly are polynucleotides, and what are the benefits of this treatment?

What are Polynucleotides?

Polynucleotides, often abbreviated as PN or PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide), are biological molecules consisting of long chains of nucleotide units. Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA and RNA, and they consist of a sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. In the context of medical and cosmetic applications, “polynucleotides” usually refers to a substance derived from salmon DNA or other sources. These polynucleotides are believed to have various therapeutic and regenerative properties. They are often used in treatments aimed at improving skin health, promoting wound healing, and stimulating tissue regeneration. Some potential applications include skin rejuvenation, hair loss treatment, and wound care. The idea behind using polynucleotides in these applications is that they may support cellular repair and regeneration processes, leading to improved tissue health and appearance.

What are the benefits of Polynucleotides?

This treatment is highly effective for reducing the appearance of dark circles under the eyes, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improving skin texture, hair loss and skin rejuvenation.

Skin Rejuvenation: PNs stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and other essential proteins, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.

Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By promoting collagen synthesis, PNs effectively diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, restoring a more youthful complexion.

Improved Skin Texture: PNs enhance skin texture by boosting hydration, promoting cell turnover, and addressing imperfections such as scars and uneven pigmentation.

Reduces the appearance of dark eyes: PNs are especially effective in the eye area, as they stimulate higher hyaluronic acid synthesis, ensuring that the under-eye area remains hydrated and plump.

Hair Loss: Thanks to their bio-stimulatory properties, they can regenerate your hair follicles to stimulate hair growth after just a few treatments.

What is Ameela®?

Ameela® is an innovative injectable solution based on natural polymerised polynucleotides. It is a highly moisturising gel that restores skin firmness and elasticity whilst protecting against cellular damage. Ameela offers three different products: Ameela® Eyes, Ameela® Face and Ameela® Rejuvenation.

Ameela® Eyes is specifically designed for the treatment of eyebags, and periocular wrinkles, and for enhancing the structural integrity of the skin, offering a more youthful and revitalised appearance. When applied to the periocular area, this polynucleotide gel initiates a bio-restructuration process, leading to the regeneration and bio-stimulation of the skin.

Ameela® Face is the leading choice in advanced skin rejuvenation. Specifically designed to address concerns of dehydrated skin, loss of elasticity, and the need for effective contouring, Ameela® Face stands out in the world of aesthetic treatments.

Ameela® Rejuvenation is designed to revitalise and restore your skin’s natural beauty. Utilising advanced polynucleotide technology, this treatment is your key to reducing wrinkles, improving skin tone, and rejuvenating the face, neck, hair, and hands.

Where are polynucleotides typically injected?

Polynucleotide injections are typically administered in areas where skin rejuvenation is desired, including the face, neck, hands, and décolletage (chest). These injections aim to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a more youthful appearance. The choice of specific areas depends on individual treatment goals, and consulting with a qualified healthcare professional is essential to tailor the procedure to individual needs.

When do you see the results of polynucleotides, and how long do they last?

You can typically observe initial improvements approximately 7-10 days after the initial treatment, and the full effects become evident within 3-4 weeks. It is at this point that we recommend scheduling your second and subsequent treatments to maintain and enhance the results. The effects can typically last up to 6 months before a maintenance session is required.

In a world that celebrates youthfulness, the quest for effective anti-ageing treatments has become a priority for many individuals. Anti-ageing treatments can work wonders in slowing down the signs of ageing. Cavendish Clinic is renowned for its cutting-edge aesthetic solutions and offers many treatments to help give you a more youthful look. To help you on your journey, we have narrowed down to the top 5 most popular anti-ageing treatments.

1. Anti-Wrinkle Injections 

Anti-Wrinkle injections have become synonymous with anti-ageing, and for a good reason. At Cavendish Clinic, experienced doctors use anti-wrinkle injections to help smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, providing a more youthful appearance. By targeting specific facial muscles, anti-wrinkle temporarily relaxes them, reducing the appearance of crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. The procedure is quick and requires minimal downtime, making it a popular choice for those seeking immediate and noticeable results. 

2. Dermal Fillers

As we age, our skin loses volume, collagen, and elasticity, leading to sagging and the formation of wrinkles. Dermal fillers are a non-surgical solution to combat these signs of ageing, can be used in the areas around the cheeks, nose, eyes, jawline, and mouth. Made from hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance found throughout the body. They work to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, restore or replace volume loss, improve asymmetry, and can be used to rehydrate the skin and improve skin texture.

3. Ultherapy

Ultherapy is a game-changer for those seeking a non-surgical facelift. This innovative treatment utilises ultrasound technology to lift and tighten the skin naturally. Ultherapy improves the skin’s elasticity and firmness by stimulating collagen production deep within the skin. The procedure is non-invasive, requires minimal recovery time, and delivers long-lasting results, making it a preferred choice for individuals looking for a more youthful contour. 

4. Chemical Peels

A chemical peel treatment involves applying a solution to exfoliate the outer layer of skin, revealing a smoother and more even skin surface, giving clients a healthier looking complexion. Chemical peels can address skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, acne, uneven skin tone and pigmentation. At Cavendish, we offer two different types of chemicals peel: SkinCeuticals Skin Peel and Radiance Obaji Skin Peel. 

5. Dermapen

Microneedling is a collagen-inducing treatment to help improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, enlarged pores and acne scars. Microneedling creates micro-channels using tiny needles to penetrate the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing process and promoting the production of collagen and elastin.
