Ameela polynucleotides are injectable bio-stimulators derived from salmon DNA, designed to revitalise skin. They stimulate collagen production and boost hydration, improving elasticity and reducing fine lines for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

How do Ameela polynucleotides work?

Polynucleotides are delivered under the skin with a fine needle, not to add volume directly but to act as powerful biostimulators. They target fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and supporting wound healing.

Once activated, these fibroblasts stimulate natural skin regeneration from within, enhancing collagen and elastin production and strengthening the extracellular matrix, where fibroblasts are located. This process leads to improved hydration, reduced inflammation, and enhanced skin texture, tone, and firmness, which gradually minimises fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, polynucleotides neutralise free radicals, helping to protect against skin ageing.

How long does a typical treatment session take?

The treatment generally takes around 45 minutes to 1 hour, which includes time for preparation and post-treatment care.

What downtime is associated with Ameela polynucleotides?

Recovery is swift, with minimal side effects such as bruising or small bumps that usually resolve within a few hours, allowing immediate return to activities.

"Treatment with Ameela polynucleotides is a great option for patients who want an in clinic treatment to improve eyelid skin quality and naturally refresh the under-eye area. With Dr Hawkes’s injection technique, it is a popular option for patients wanting ‘red carpet’ under eye rejuvenation before a big event or holiday."

– Dr Elizabeth Hawkes

When will I see results, and how long can I expect them to last?

Results from Ameela polynucleotide treatments are seen quite quickly, with noticeable improvements within a matter of weeks. These treatments can maintain skin appearance for up to 6-9 months, with maintenance sessions recommended every 6-9 months for continued enhancement.

TESTIMONIALS

Happy patients

I have had a few aesthetic treatments with Dr Elizabeth now, namely Botox, polynucleotides and Profilho. Each and every time Dr Elizabeth has been very approachable and informative regarding details and processes. She is always happy to answer any questions I may have. I am really happy with my results so far having had no downtime nor bruising which I know is down to her preferred cannula techniques. I am still mid treatment plan but the improvements I am seeing already are very impressive! The clinic and staff I cannot fault either, always friendly and helpful. Their communication has been excellent as well. I highly recommended Dr Elizabeth, her team and clinic.

How is treatment performed?

Ameela polynucleotide treatments are administered through a series of small, precise injections under the skin.

Is treatment with Ameela polynucleotides painful?

The treatment can cause minimal discomfort, described as a slight pinch or sting. Dr Hawkes will apply a numbing cream to reduce any potential discomfort.

What is the cost of Ameela polynucleotide treatment?

Ameela polynucleotides treatment starts from £800.

Who is suitable for treatment with Ameela polynucleotides?

Individuals interested in natural, non-surgical skin rejuvenation, including those with sensitive skin, are suitable for Ameela polynucleotide treatments. However, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals or those with active skin infections may not be suitable.

What is better, Profhilo or polynucleotides?

Both **Profhilo** and **Ameela polynucleotides** are effective skin rejuvenation treatments, but they work in different ways and are suited to different skin concerns. **Profhilo** is a **hyaluronic acid-based treatment** primarily designed to hydrate and improve skin elasticity, while **polynucleotides** stimulate collagen production and enhance skin regeneration. If your primary goal is **hydration** and **skin tightening**, **Profhilo** may be the better option. However, if you're looking for more **long-lasting skin rejuvenation** that targets **fine lines, wrinkles, and scars**, **Ameela polynucleotides** could be more beneficial. Both treatments can complement each other, and Dr. Hawkes can help you choose the right treatment based on your skin's unique needs and your desired results.
