Polynucleotides are one of the most talked-about injectables in aesthetics right now, but there are still a lot of myths surrounding them. Let’s clear them up so you know exactly what to expect 👇🏼
🔎 Myth 1: You’ll see instant results
Polynucleotides are incredible for regenerating and repairing the skin, but they’re not a quick fix. Unlike fillers, they don’t instantly plump or smooth, they work by stimulating fibroblasts to build new collagen and improve skin quality over time. That’s why they fall under regenerative medicine: it takes a series of treatments, patience, and time to see their full benefits.
🔎 Myth 2: They’ll lift severe skin laxity on their own
While polynucleotides are amazing for improving skin texture, hydration, and elasticity, they won’t correct significant sagging. They can prime your skin beautifully before surgery, lasers, or thread lifting, helping you get better results from those treatments, but they’re not a substitute for procedures that physically lift skin.
🔎 Myth 3: They only hydrate the skin
Yes, polynucleotides do boost hydration, but they go so much further. They have antioxidant effects, reduce inflammation, support healing, and improve overall skin quality, making them a powerful tool in long-term skin health, not just a superficial hydrator.
