In the world of beauty, weird is normal—bird poop facials, vampire facials, you name it. The latest? Polynucleotides. Yep, they’re derived from salmon sperm. But don’t freak out; it’s less gross than it sounds and way more effective than you’d think.

What Are Polynucleotides Anyway?

No, it’s not injecting straight-up fish sperm into your face. Polynucleotides are purified DNA fragments extracted from salmon or trout sperm. Think of it like a skin-boosting cocktail for your cells. Unlike fillers, which just plump things up, polynucleotides work on a deeper level by nourishing your skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production, and improving hydration. They even help reduce inflammation.

Fun fact: Before hitting the beauty world, these DNA molecules were used to treat medical issues like wound healing and osteoarthritis. So yeah, they’re legit.

What Can They Do for You?

Polynucleotides can handle a lot:
Fine lines and wrinkles? Check.
Dark circles and eye bags? Check.
Acne scars, rosacea, stretch marks, or uneven skin tone? Double check.
They’re injected into your face, neck, or décolleté to regenerate skin from the inside out. The result? Firmer, smoother, healthier-looking skin that doesn’t just look better—it is better.

Why Bother?

If you want natural, science-backed skin rejuvenation without going the Botox or filler route, polynucleotides might be your new best friend. They don’t just patch things up—they heal and revitalise your skin at the cellular level.

Weird? Sure. Worth it? Absolutely. Book a free aesthetics consultation with us here at Nuovo Clinic in Essex today.

Ozempic Face

by nuovoclinic

November 25, 2024

Once touted as the elite’s secret to weight loss, Semaglutides like Wegovy & Ozempic are in high demand today because of their effective weight management and weight loss results. The impressive weight loss results can come within weeks, so it’s no wonder why its so popular in those looking to drop the pounds and kick-start their weight loss journey. It surged in popularity after celebrities like Oprah Winfrey endorsed the success and advantages of the medication underlining how it helped her get over years of weight-related suffering!

Yet rapid weight loss can have its negative consequences, and a troubling effect of rapid weight loss that some people are complaining about is something called “Ozempic face.” But what does this term mean, and what your Aesthetics Practitioner can do to address it?

In this article, we look at the impact of rapid weight loss on the facial structure, the causes of ‘Ozempic face’, and the aesthetic treatments that can help to recover a fresh and more youthful appearance.

So what actually is ‘Ozempic Face’?

Ozempic and other weight-loss medications can stimulate extreme fat loss in a really short time. Though this is, of course, the desired effect, this can lead to changes to the skin’s overall appearance. More often than not, rapid weight loss causes a loss in volume and skin elasticity, which tends to sag, thereby hollowing out a face and aging it!

As a result, a person who is suffering with ‘Ozempic face’ from using may notice the following traits:

• Loose skin

• Dull, dehydrated skin tone

• Deepened fine lines with more wrinkles

• Dark circles or sunken areas under the eyes

• Lack of facial structure and volume

What treatments actually work to combat the signs of Ozempic Face?

Fortunately, a wide array of nonsurgical cosmetic treatments can effectively help balance out the results of Ozempic Face. There are specific treatments for restoring volume, providing extra hydration, and rejuvenating the skin. Check out our top 3 recommend treatments for this below:

Dermal Fillers To Restore Volume And Facial Contours

Facial rejuvenation and sculpting the face with Dermal fillers is very popular.
Formulated with hyaluronic acid, these injectables can addback the lost volume, lift and plump the skin, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles while hydration is achieved.

For those experiencing the Ozempic Face symptoms, we often see extreme drooping of the cheeks and the jowls.
By strategically placing HA fillers to add volume within the facial contours, we can redefine and lift up this sagging skin to give a fuller and more youthful look.

PLLA Stimulators To Create Natural Collagen Production!

PLLA injectables are becoming one of the hottest topics on the market for their amazing results. PLLA’s work by stimulating the body’s own production of collagen and elastin.
These treatments restore volume and improve skin elasticity with time, resulting in slow, natural-looking results.

PLLA stimulators work amazingly well when addressing volume loss, particularly the nasolabial folds, cheek, templets and under-eye hollows.
They are extremely popular because the encouraging the skin to naturally create collagen and re-build up its support structures.

Skin Boosters To Fix Hydration Lost

Skin boosters work by improving the quality of the skin itself, offering a heavy dose of hydration from underneath the skin.
These Hyaluronic acid-based treatments help improve the skins texture and elasticity and give back that radiant glow.

With Ozempic Face, a hydration boost using HA skin boosters helps to combat the dull, dry complexion that is often associated with rapid fat loss.
Smoothening and plumping the skin with hydration using a skin booster is highly effective.
