1. What is Polynucleotide (PN) treatment?
Polynucleotides are regenerative injectable treatments that stimulate collagen and elastin production. When applied to the inner arms, they improve skin firmness, elasticity, and overall skin quality, reducing sagging and crepiness.
2. Who is suitable for PN treatment on the inner arms?
Adults experiencing skin laxity, thinning, or early signs of ageing in the inner arm area. A consultation is needed to assess skin condition and suitability.
3. How is the treatment performed?
PN solution is injected into the dermal layer of the skin on the inner arms using fine needles or cannulas. The procedure is minimally invasive and generally well-tolerated.
4. How many sessions are needed?
A typical course is 3–4 sessions, spaced 2–4 weeks apart, depending on the degree of skin laxity. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 6–12 months.
5. How long does a session take?
Each session usually lasts 20–30 minutes, depending on the area size.
6. Are the results immediate?
Some improvement in skin hydration and texture may be noticed immediately, but full results develop over 4–8 weeks as collagen and elastin production increases.
7. Are there side effects?
- Mild redness, swelling, or tiny bumps at injection sites
- Temporary tenderness or bruising
These typically resolve within a few days.
8. Can PN treatment be combined with other therapies?
Yes — it can be combined with skin boosters, mesotherapy, or other arm contouring treatments for enhanced rejuvenation.
9. How long do results last?
Results can last 6–12 months, depending on skin type, lifestyle, and maintenance treatments.
