As I move towards 50 on Friday I will be honest, I have thought about the odd tweak, but haven’t taken the plunge, yet. With this in mind I was delighted to speak to Dr Aamer Khan, the co-founder and Clinical Director of the Harley Street Skin clinic, who has dedicated the past 17 years to performing cosmetic and non-surgical procedures to help thousands of men and women look and feel as good as they can inside and out.   

Dr Khan graduated from The University of Birmingham in 1986, and having gained a knowledge of human psychology, psychiatry, surgery and dermatology he became a full-time cosmetic doctor in 2005. Dr. Khan is commitmed to holistic well-being and at YOMU we are loving the look of Ballingdon Hall inSuffolk. where you can enjoy time out to nurture both your body and mind, as well as rejuvenation and inner balance. Sounds good, no? And with a copy of his book, 'Turn Back Time', you would be set for a great break.

The goodness doesn’t stop here. Dr. Khan's dedication to supporting individuals through life's transitions is exemplified by his role as the founder of The Midlife and Menopause Clinic, a specialised facility catering to the unique needs of both men and women navigating the challenges of midlife and menopause. Driven by his passion for enhancing women's well-being during this pivotal phase, Dr. Khan has studied Bio-Identical Hormones as an alternative to traditional Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Through this approach, he offers women a smoother journey through menopause, empowering them to embrace this stage of life with confidence and vitality.

With all of this in mind, it’s over to Dr Khan for his insight into embracing the evolution of aesthetics.

In the dynamic world of aesthetics, where innovation is the driving force, a remarkable breakthrough is taking the stage – polynucleotide skin rejuvenation. This revolutionary and increasingly popular treatment has shown immense promise in addressing various skin concerns, from fine lines and wrinkles to sun damage, rosacea, and scarring while offering minimal downtime and an exceptionally low risk of complications.

The DNA of Skin Rejuvenation

Polynucleotides, long chains of DNA sourced from salmon or trout sperm DNA, represent a cutting-edge approach to skin rejuvenation. Available as injectables, these highly purified DNA fragments attract water molecules, enhancing hydration and volume while combating oxidative stress through their potent antioxidant properties. By addressing OH hydroxyl radicals accumulated due to UV exposure and cell damage, polynucleotides pave the way for comprehensive skin restoration.

How Polynucleotides Transform Your Skin

Upon injection, polynucleotides stimulate fibroblasts, initiating rejuvenation within the skin. This process boosts collagen production, improving skin elasticity and hydration for a supple complexion. What’s more, polynucleotides play a crucial role in calming inflammation and rebalancing melanocyte activity, resulting in an even and refreshed skin tone. This versatile approach addresses various aspects of skin health, affording revitalisation and radiance.

Where Polynucleotide Injections Work Their Magic

Polynucleotide injections can be applied to any area of the skin, including the face, neck, décolletage, and even the scalp for hair regrowth. Whether targeting specific concerns such as under-eye rejuvenation or addressing larger areas like the abdomen or arms, polynucleotides effectively improve skin texture and function.

Safety and Long-Term Benefits

With their similarity to human DNA and high purification levels, polynucleotide injections pose minimal risks, even for individuals with fish allergies. Unlike traditional fillers, polynucleotides disperse without blocking blood vessels, ensuring safety and efficacy. Furthermore, there are no long-term risks associated with regular polynucleotide use, making them a viable long-term solution for maintaining skin vitality.

Maintaining Your Glow

To sustain optimal results, an initial series of three sessions of injections spaced two weeks apart is recommended, followed by maintenance treatments every six months. This regimen ensures the preservation of radiant and youthful-looking skin, allowing individuals to enjoy the benefits of polynucleotide therapy for the long term.

Embracing the Future of Beauty and Wellness

Polynucleotide injections are revolutionising aesthetic medicine, offering a natural and highly effective way to rejuvenate skin like never before. Unlike traditional injectables, polynucleotides work deep within the skin's cells, kickstarting a powerful process of regeneration from the inside out.

They're incredibly versatile too! Polynucleotide injections can be combined with other treatments like hyaluronic acid injections and skin boosters for even better results. While hyaluronic acid injections and skin boosters give instant hydration and plumping, polynucleotides go further. They boost the skin's natural repair mechanisms, help the skin make more collagen, and even out skin tone. Plus, they make procedures like lasers and micro-needling work even better.

Whether used alone or with other treatments, polynucleotide therapy offers long-lasting and natural-looking results. So, if you're in search of a skincare solution that's both effective and safe, polynucleotide injections are definitely worth considering. They're the future of beauty and skin rejuvenation.
