PLENHYAGE XL Medium – New Treatment in Clinic 

new biostimulating injectable

 

When the whole team our lined up for a treatment….we know it is a good one!!! An ideal treatment for Repairs, revitalizes and regenerates facial tissues

This treatment that introduces a new concept of regenerative medicine: it allows to promote cell turnover, improve skin elasticity and hydration and heal sun damaged skin, photoaging and scars (acne).

 

So, what’s is this treatment? 

 

2% high molecular weight polynucleotides.

The polynucleotide chain, in addition to attracting water molecules, has an anti-free radical action, acting as a scavenger of OH hydroxyl radicals which tend to accumulate as a result of stress, cell damage, external agents such as UV rays.

The moisturizing action and anti-free radical activity help to create an optimal environment for the growth of fibroblasts, helping to restore the elasticity of the tissues.

Nucleotides, natural DNA fractions, are the peculiar and original ingredient of this new product as they have an antioxidant action, protection and reduction of cell damage caused by UV radiation or scars.

The product contains high molecular weight polynucleotide chains whose biochemical characteristics make it highly viscoelastic and capable of binding and orienting in space a considerable quantity of water molecules, which are mainly retained at the level of the hydrophilic groups of the phosphorylated sugars of the individual nucleotides.

Macromolecules are also capable of carrying out an immediate “scavenger” action against free radicals.

Polynucleotides are important tools available to regenerative medicine to counteract the aging processes: skin revitalization is activated by the main players involved in the development of the dermis, the fibroblasts and stem cells, respecting the biological time of tissue formation.

The ingredient is extracted from salmon sperm DNA. In a study published by the International Journal of Cosmetic Science, researchers found that skin exposed to DNA extracted from salmon sperm had higher water content, increased skin elasticity, stronger collagen levels. Salmon sperm application also boosted the skin’s own ability to produce hyaluronic acid.

 

Clinical Study & Evidence 

 

A clinical study involving 15 patients highlighted a:

  • 115% increase in hydration levels
  • 38% improvement in elasticity after 20 weeks of a Plenhyage XL treatment.

Another clinical study involving 36 mice divided into controlled and experimental groups with skin wound depth of 12mm showed an increased epidermal thickness by more than 50% and a 47% boost in collagen after 23 days.

 

Areas to be treated? 

 

  • acne scarring
  • hyperpigmentation
  • rosacea
  • Ageing concerns in the upper, mid and lower face including around the eyes
  • treat the neck & décolletage
  • inner arms
  • thighs
  • knees

 

What does the treatment involve? 

 

Patients can expect to see results after three weeks which will last six to nine months. Three to four sessions, spaced over 21-28 days are required for best results.

It is an injectable treatment carried out by our aesthetic nurse, Jacqui Hall. A consultation prior to treatment is required. Prior to treatment a numbing cream will be applied.
