Polynucleotide

What Is Polynucleotide?

Polynucleotide therapy — often called PDRN or salmon DNA treatment — is one of the newest bio-regenerative skin treatments available at Aesthetic Lounge in DHA Lahore. It uses highly purified DNA fragments derived from salmon, which are remarkably compatible with human tissue, injected into the skin to repair damage at a cellular level. Rather than filling or freezing, polynucleotides work by signalling: they stimulate fibroblasts — the cells that manufacture collagen and elastin — to switch back into repair mode.

This makes polynucleotides especially valuable where skin is thin, delicate, and showing age first: the under-eye area, the neck, and the decolletage. Clients who feel their under-eyes look tired, crepey, or hollow but are hesitant about filler often find polynucleotides the more natural-feeling answer, because the treatment improves the skin itself — its thickness, elasticity, and hydration — rather than placing volume beneath it. Every polynucleotide treatment at our clinic is planned and performed under the supervision of Dr. Huma Abbas, our Medical Director.

How Polynucleotide Works at Aesthetic Lounge

After consultation and numbing cream, the purified polynucleotide solution is placed into the skin through a series of precise micro-injections across the treatment area — most commonly under the eyes, or across the neck and lower face. The session takes around 30 to 45 minutes. The polynucleotides then get to work below the surface: stimulating fibroblast activity, promoting new collagen and elastin, improving microcirculation, and calming low-grade inflammation. Because the treatment works through your skin's own repair biology, results build gradually over the weeks following each session rather than appearing overnight. Individual results vary, and your response is reviewed across the course.

Benefits of Polynucleotide

• Bio-regenerative repair — improves the skin itself rather than masking it
• Particularly effective for the delicate under-eye area and crepey lids
• Thickens and strengthens thin, aging skin on the neck and decolletage
• Improves elasticity, hydration, and fine crepey texture
• A natural-looking alternative or companion to under-eye filler
• Well tolerated, with minimal downtime after each session
• Doctor-led treatment planning at our DHA Lahore clinic

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Polynucleotides suit adults with tired-looking, crepey, or thinning skin — especially under the eyes and on the neck — and anyone wanting genuine skin repair rather than volume. They are a strong option for clients whose under-eye concern is skin quality and darkness rather than deep hollowing, and they pair well with fillers when both are needed. Treatment is avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding, with fish protein allergy, and over active infection. Suitability is always confirmed at your consultation with Dr. Huma at our DHA Lahore clinic.

Sessions & Results Timeline

The standard course is 2 to 3 sessions spaced three to four weeks apart, with improvement building progressively — many clients notice fresher, better-hydrated skin after the first session, with firmness and texture gains continuing for weeks after the course completes. Maintenance sessions once or twice a year help sustain the results. Individual results vary with age, skin condition, and lifestyle, so your plan is tailored at consultation.
