Regenerative skin treatment with Dr. Nivine Cheaito.
Plinest is an injectable polynucleotide treatment designed to support skin regeneration, elasticity, hydration and overall skin quality.
Rather than adding facial volume, Plinest works within the skin to support its natural repair processes, making it particularly suited to patients seeking fresher, smoother and healthier-looking skin without changing their facial features.
Plinest is an injectable skin rejuvenation treatment based on purified polynucleotides. Polynucleotides are DNA-derived fragments used in regenerative aesthetic medicine to support the biological environment of the skin.
Unlike dermal fillers, Plinest is not designed primarily to create volume or reshape facial features. It focuses on improving the quality of the skin itself.
Polynucleotides interact with the skin's regenerative processes and support fibroblast activity, which is associated with collagen and extracellular matrix maintenance.
Rather than producing an instant filler effect, improvement develops progressively as the condition and quality of the treated skin changes.
Not every patient who wants better skin needs filler.
Dr. Nivine assesses hydration, elasticity, pigmentation, facial structure, volume loss and the degree of skin laxity before deciding whether Plinest is the appropriate treatment. For some patients, polynucleotides may be ideal. For others, Profhilo, skin boosters, Sculptra, Morpheus8, Ultraformer or another regenerative treatment may provide a better match.
Skin quality, treatment area, previous procedures and rejuvenation goals are reviewed before selecting Plinest.
Plinest is injected using a technique appropriate to the area. Temporary small injection bumps, redness or mild swelling can occur.
An initial plan may involve approximately 2 to 3 sessions spaced several weeks apart. Maintenance is considered according to skin response.
Progressive
Often 2 to 3 sessions
Usually minimal
Plinest uses polynucleotides and is centered around regenerative skin support, elasticity and tissue quality.
Profhilo uses stabilised hyaluronic acid and focuses strongly on hydration, bio-remodelling and skin firmness.
Dr. Nivine may recommend one or the other depending on the condition of the skin.
Traditional skin boosters are often hyaluronic acid-based and primarily focus on hydration, radiance and superficial skin quality. Plinest uses polynucleotides and takes a more regenerative approach.
Plinest and Rejuran both belong to the broader category of polynucleotide-based regenerative injectable treatments, but they differ in formulation, manufacturing and treatment protocols.
When appropriate, Plinest may be incorporated alongside Profhilo, skin boosters, Botox, Sculptra, Morpheus8, Ultraformer, microneedling, laser and light treatments, or medical skincare.
The treatments do not necessarily need to be performed at the same time. Appropriate sequencing is important.
Individual results vary. Photographs are of Dr. Nivine’s own patients, shown with written consent and unretouched.
Plinest is a polynucleotide-based injectable. Polynucleotide treatments are sometimes marketed using the broader consumer term "Salmon DNA," although this terminology can refer to different products and formulations.
Plinest is often discussed alongside skin boosters, but it is more accurately considered a regenerative polynucleotide injectable rather than a conventional hyaluronic acid skin booster.
No. Plinest is not intended primarily to create facial volume or contour in the way dermal fillers do.
A treatment course may involve approximately 2 to 3 sessions, although the appropriate protocol depends on the skin and treatment area.
Yes. Specific Plinest formulations are designed for delicate areas such as the periocular region. Suitability depends on the cause of the under-eye concern.
Improvement in skin quality, elasticity and hydration may soften the appearance of fine lines over time.
Results develop progressively rather than appearing as an immediate volumising effect. Skin quality may continue to improve throughout the treatment course.
They work differently. Plinest is a polynucleotide treatment focused on regenerative skin quality, while Profhilo is a hyaluronic acid bio-remodelling treatment. The better option depends on your skin.
Yes, when clinically appropriate. It may form part of a broader programme involving injectables, energy-based devices or medical skincare.
Regenerative aesthetics should improve the quality of the skin without changing the identity of the face. Dr. Nivine selects Plinest according to the biology of the skin, the treatment area and the result the patient actually needs.
