I use Plinest polynucleotides by Mastelli in the clinic for eyes and face.
Your Treatment
During your Polynucleotides treatment, the liquid is carefully injected into specific targeted areas of the face or neck depending on your area of concern. Polynucleotides then create a regenerative environment by activating fibroblasts to boost collagen and elastin production. This enhances skin firmness and elasticity while also improving hydration.
Polynucleotides also have an anti-inflammatory effect, This helps to reduce redness and irritation, and support tissue remodelling to smooth uneven texture and tone, fine lines and wrinkles. Over time, this leads to firmer, more youthful skin which glows with health.
What to Expect
Small injection bumps (blebs) are normal and usually disappear quickly with a couple of days. Use a clean, cold compress to help with swelling.
