PRP vs Polynucleotides: your essential guide to biostimulators

PRP vs Polynucleotides: your essential guide to biostimulators

Introduction: What Are Biostimulators?

Biostimulators are innovative treatments designed to rejuvenate your skin from within by stimulating natural repair processes. Two of our most popular options are Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Polynucleotides. While both aim to restore your skin’s vitality, they work in different ways and are suited to different needs. Let’s break down the key differences to help you choose the right one for your skin goals.

What Is PRP?
PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is a natural treatment that uses your body’s own growth factors to boost collagen production, improve skin texture, and promote healing. It’s created by drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to isolate the plasma, and then injecting it into targeted areas of your skin.

Best For: Improving skin texture, fine lines, acne scars, and hair restoration.
How It Works: The growth factors in PRP stimulate collagen production and cell regeneration, giving your skin a refreshed, youthful glow.
Treatment Areas: Face, neck, décolletage, hands, and scalp.
Sessions Needed: 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results.
Downtime: Minimal; mild redness or swelling for 1–2 days.



What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are advanced biostimulators derived from DNA fragments that repair and regenerate the skin at a cellular level. They improve hydration, elasticity, and overall skin quality by boosting fibroblast activity and stimulating tissue repair.

Best For: Deep hydration, skin elasticity, and reducing signs of ageing. Ideal for dull, sagging, or sun-damaged skin.
How It Works: Polynucleotides repair damaged skin, improve microcirculation, and enhance the skin’s natural regenerative processes.
Treatment Areas: Face, neck, and body (including stretch marks).
Sessions Needed: 2–4 treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
Downtime: Minimal; mild swelling or redness for 1–2 days.

Which One Is Right for You?
Choosing between PRP and Polynucleotides depends on your skin’s needs and your goals:

Opt for PRP if you’re looking to improve texture, reduce scars, or boost overall collagen production.
Choose Polynucleotides if hydration, elasticity, and skin quality are your main concerns. Also bear in mind that as we age or face health challenges, our plasma  quality may decline, affecting its ability to support skin repair and rejuvenation. Unlike PRP, polynucleotides maintain their effectiveness regardless of age or health, making them a safer and more dependable choice for mature women.
