The latest advances in the field of aesthetic medicine are all about skin regeneration. This essentially means encouraging your skin to rejuvenate itself.
PN is not a filler and therefore will not add volume or change the contours of your face. These DNA fragments act on your fibroblast cells to boost production of collagen and elastin, production of which declines as we age.
It’s great for loose wrinkled skin, particularly so around the eyes and mouth, for shallow cheek lines that form when we smile and for non-facial areas, eg. neck, décolleté and hands.
In fact, the neck is a particularly difficult area to rejuvenate. Botox works well for those “turkey bands” but standard fillers can’t be used in this area. I feel that PN is the way forward for aged skin in all the above areas.
A course of three or four treatments are necessary, ideally spaced 3 weeks apart.
Pre treatment advice: you should not have had Covid infection or vaccination within a two week period of this course. I advise arnica 30c tablets to be taken two days in advance of each treatment to reduce the chance of swelling and bruising.
Treatment sessions: I like to apply anaesthetic cream for 30 mins beforehand to ensure the treatment is comfortable. PN is a gel injected in lots of tiny droplets to cover the area using a tiny needle (the same size as a Botox needle). Treatment will usually take about 10 mins.
Aftercare: Tiny visible bumps will be noticeable following treatment which might persist until the following day. You will be advised not to touch the area and to avoid wearing make-up for at least 4 hours.
PN takes time to work so you may not see any visible improvement until after your second treatment.
