Summary

We dive deep into the groundbreaking world of polynucleotides and explore their transformative potential in skin rejuvenation. These injectable biostimulators, composed of nucleotides like PDRN, harness the body's natural regenerative processes to improve skin texture, elasticity, and overall appearance without adding volume. Join us as we unpack the science behind polynucleotides, the benefits of collagen and elastin stimulation, and whether this non-invasive treatment is right for your skincare journey.

Well, hello, hello guys. You're listening to Beauty Bites with Dr. K, Secrets of a Plastic

0:19.4

Surgeon, and it's time for a five-minute Friday.

0:23.2

Yay, it's Friday.

0:24.7

And we are going to talk about polynucleotides.

0:28.4

I am so excited to tell you guys about the power of polynucleotides.

0:33.5

And you're going to be hearing a lot about polynucleotides for me in this coming year because I've been using them in the practice.

0:40.6

I've been loving the results.

0:42.4

I just came back from a conference in Japan, the Tokyo AMWC.

0:47.5

That's the Anti-Aging World Congress.

0:49.8

And let me tell you, Asia, China, Korea, Tokyo, Japan, they're way ahead of us in the use of polynucleotide,

0:57.4

so I have so much to share. But let's start with the definition. So what is a polynucleotide?

1:05.5

Polynucleotides are injectable biostimulators and they are composed of nucleotide fragments now if you go back to

1:14.8

seventh grade biology or maybe it was your molecular biology in college like it was for me but

1:21.2

remember that the nucleotides are the cgat base pairs that make up the DNA molecule, right?

1:28.0

They're coupled with the sugar and they're coupled with the ribos.

1:32.2

And these CGA-T-based pairs are used in the repair of our DNA and very important for the nucleus of the cell,

1:41.9

very important to maintain integrity of cellular health and healing

1:46.6

and wound repair.

1:48.8

And let's face it, aging is like a wound.

1:52.0

When there are senescent fibroblasts that are not working well, the process of building

1:57.2

collagen and elastin breaks down.

1:59.5

And that is where you get aging changes for the
