How pioneering regenerative aesthetics can help restore your skin the natural way  

If you’re a beauty connoisseur, you’ll already know that the future of cosmetic treatments is more than skin deep. Regenerative aesthetics offers a game-changing approach to maintaining a youthful appearance by harnessing the body’s own ability to restore itself – giving nature a nudge, if you will.  

An offshoot of regenerative medicine such as stem cell therapy, it can help with everything from fine lines and wrinkles, to hyperpigmentation, acne, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. 

Here comes the science: These innovative therapies integrate principles from biology, engineering and clinical medicine to repair, replace or regenerate skin tissue and restore its normal function.  

Regents Park Aesthetics has been at the cutting edge of the beauty industry since 2012, with clinics in Central London, Berkamsted and the Caribbean island of Antigua, each with a medically-trained team at the fore. 

Its owner and key practitioner – award-winning nurse Kay Greveson – says the real beauty of regenerative aesthetics is that it offers a natural and enduring solution for ageing skin.  

Well, this sounds exciting. Is it too good to be true? 

“Not at all. Regenerative treatments offer great results and use natural, purified ingredients so the risk of complications is extremely low, making them a safe and popular choice among patients. 

“There are multiple options available; some have been around for a while, such as stem cell therapy, epidermal growth factors which help skin regenerate, and platelet-rich plasma, while newer options include the use of polynucleotides and exosomes.  

“These techniques address the cellular causes of ageing, rather than just fixing the signs of it.” 

Tell us more about polynucleotides. 

“This is a pioneering, injectable treatment that is actually derived from salmon DNA. It naturally stimulates collagen production to enhance skin elasticity and facilitate cellular repair. It’s an exceptional choice for people wishing to mitigate signs of ageing, like fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots and crepiness, as well as just improving the overall quality of their skin. 

“It improves the texture and tone of the skin for a smoother, more radiant complexion. PN therapy can also diminish the appearance of blemishes including acne scars. 

“It’s also popular because it’s quick, virtually painless and has minimal downtime. 

“Polynucleotides are typically injected under the eyes, along with the neck, cheeks, jawline and forehead. A course of three is recommended, with the results lasting  for several months.” 

Ok, so what about exosomes? 

“Exosome therapy is a fairly new, professional-level skin treatment often used in sync with laser therapy, or microneedling which involves pricking the skin with tiny sterilised needles to prompt the skin to make more collagen and elastin. After having such a treatment, an exosome serum is layered onto the skin. 

“Exosomes are essentially tiny particles released by cells that carry messages and materials, helping cells communicate and share resources with each other in the body. They transfer proteins, lipids and other molecules between cells to regulate various biological processes, including healing and tissue regeneration.  

“They work by stimulating collagen and elastin production to make the skin firmer and smoother. Exosomes also have anti-inflammatory properties which can reduce redness and irritation, making them suitable for sensitive or damaged skin. 

“In the UK, only non-human exosomes are used, often from plant cells.” 

What’s the difference between polynucleotides and exosomes? 

“The main difference is that polynucleotides are injected into the skin while exosomes are not.  

“Both treatments can be used alongside other therapies such as injectables, microneedling and radiofrequency to boost the results and offer a 3D holistic approach to skin rejuvenation.  

“What they also have in common is that, in addition to being used on the skin to improve elasticity and overall skin health, they can also be applied to the scalp to stimulate hair growth.” 

Why choose Regents Park Aesthetics? 

“We only use the highest quality products for all of our treatments, such as PLINEST polynucleotides which are one of the best on the market, and ExoCoBio exosome treatment derived from rose plants. 

“We offer a very personal service, catering to each patient’s individuality, as evidenced in our hundreds of excellent Google reviews.
