Skin Boosters & Polynucleotides 

Skin Boosters and Polynucleotides are both injectable skin treatments used in Aesthetics to improve skin quality, hydration, and overall appearance, but they work in different ways and target slightly different concerns.

 

Skin Boosters

Skin boosters are injectable treatments containing hyaluronic acid — a substance naturally found in the skin that attracts moisture. They are not fillers, but rather hydrators that improve skin texture and elasticity from within.

 

Benefits of Skin Boosters:

 

    •    Deep skin hydration

    •    Smoother skin texture

    •    Increased radiance and glow

    •    Improved elasticity and firmness

    •    Improves fine lines and superficial acne scarring

​

 

Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides are bio-revitalizing injectables made from highly purified DNA fragments, often derived from salmon or trout sperm (sounds strange, but they’re incredibly safe and effective). They work by stimulating cell repair, collagen production, and tissue regeneration at a deeper level than skin boosters.

 

Benefits:

 

    •    Skin healing and regeneration

    •    Improved elasticity and skin thickness

    •    Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles

    •    Helps with pigmentation and under-eye dark circles

    •    Often used for sensitive or damaged skin, including acne-prone or inflamed areas

 

Key Difference:

 

    •    Skin boosters focus mainly on hydration and plumping.

    •    Polynucleotides focus on regeneration, healing, and collagen stimulation.

 

They can sometimes be used together for complementary results depending on your skin concerns.
