Croma Polyphil

Helps Skin Look More Moisturized, Smooth, Supple, and Healthy

What Is Croma PolyPhil?

Croma PolyPhil is an injectable treatment to help improve skin quality. It contains Polynucleotide (PN), purified DNA fragments from freshwater fish. This ingredient helps support the skin’s natural repair process.

PolyPhil is not used to change face shape. Its main aim is to make skin feel more moisturized, smooth, and supple, and look healthier.

What Concerns Can It Address?

Croma PolyPhil can help with:

• Dry, dehydrated skin.
• Dull or tired-looking skin.
• Uneven skin texture.
• Fine lines.
• Skin elasticity that is starting to decrease.
• More visible pores.
• Skin that is starting to thin with aging.
• Mild acne scars.
• Early signs of aging.

This treatment is not the main treatment for deep dark spots, severe scars, or very loose skin.

Who Is It Suitable For?

• Those with dry or dull skin.
• Those starting to get fine lines.
• Those who feel their skin is less supple.
• Those with uneven skin texture.
• Those whose elasticity is starting to decline.
• Those who want to maintain skin quality early.
• Those who want natural results.
• Those who do not need added volume like filler.

Does the Treatment Hurt?

After applying numbing cream, discomfort is generally mild to moderate, around 3-5 on a scale of 10. You may feel:

• Small pricks.
• Slight stinging.
• A feeling of pressure.
• A brief warm sensation or pain.

What you feel can differ depending on the area and each person’s tolerance.

How Long Is Recovery?

After the treatment you may notice:

• Small bumps at the injection points.
• Redness.
• Mild swelling.
• Stinging or sensitivity.
• Small bruises.

Bumps and redness usually reduce within 1-3 days. Bruising can last about 3-7 days. You can usually still carry on with your activities after treatment.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

Croma PolyPhil is generally done in 3 sessions about 2-4 weeks apart. After the initial series, follow-up treatments can be done about every 6 months, depending on your skin condition and your doctor’s examination.

When Will Results Start to Show?

Early changes may start to show within 2-4 weeks, such as:

• Skin feels more moisturized.
• The skin surface feels smoother.
• The face looks fresher.
• Skin feels suppler.

Improvements in texture, elasticity, and fine lines are usually more visible after several treatments, around 2-3 months.

How Long Do Results Last?

Results can last about 4-6 months after the series of treatments.

How long results last is influenced by:

• Age and skin condition.
• Number of sessions.
• Sunscreen use.
• Sun exposure.
• Skincare.
• Sleep patterns.
• Smoking habits.
• Nutrition and overall health.

Who Should Postpone Treatment?

Treatment should be postponed or discussed further if you:

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Have a wound or infection in the treatment area.
• Have an active herpes outbreak.
• Have severely inflamed acne.
• Are allergic to fish or product ingredients.
• Have a blood clotting disorder.
• Take blood-thinning medication.
• Have an active autoimmune disease.
• Have had a severe allergy to injectable products.

Can It Be Combined with Other Treatments?

Croma PolyPhil can be done on its own or combined with:

• Laser
• Sylfirm X.
• Growth Plasma.
• Hyaluronic Acid skin booster.
• Chemical peeling.
• Botox or filler.

Not all treatments are done on the same day. The doctor will set the order and spacing so your skin has enough time to recover.

What Should I Note Before Treatment?

• Tell us about any illnesses, allergies, medications, and supplements you use.
• Mention if you have a fish allergy.
• Avoid alcohol for 24-48 hours before treatment.
• Avoid excessive sun exposure.
• Postpone treatment if your skin is wounded, irritated, or infected.
• Do not stop regular medication without your doctor’s approval.
• Tell us if you have recently had laser, peeling, filler, or other injectable treatments.

What Should I Do After Treatment?

• Avoid touching, pressing, or massaging the injection points.
• Avoid makeup for about 12-24 hours.
• Use a gentle facial cleanser.
• Use a moisturizer and sunscreen.
• Avoid retinoids, AHA, BHA, and scrubs for 3-5 days.
• Avoid heavy exercise, saunas, swimming, and hot baths for 24-48 hours.
• Use skincare or medication as directed by your doctor.

Contact the clinic right away if you have severe pain, growing swelling, pus, skin discoloration, shortness of breath, or signs of an allergy.

Consult with a GLOSKIN Doctor

Everyone’s skin needs are different. Before treatment, your GLOSKIN doctor will determine:

• Whether Croma PolyPhil suits you.
• The right PolyPhil variant.
• The area and the amount of product needed.
• The injection technique.
• The number and spacing of treatments.
• The suitable combination of treatments.

Results and recovery can differ for each person. Croma PolyPhil helps improve skin quality gradually and does not give the same results to all patients.
