POLYNUCLEOTIDES

As skin matures, it can begin to show signs of fatigue—wrinkles deepen, elasticity diminishes, and natural repair slows down. While hyaluronic acid–based treatments are excellent for hydration, sometimes skin needs deeper regeneration to restore its vitality.

 

Polynucleotides (PNs) are the next generation of injectable skin treatments, designed to rejuvenate skin from within at a cellular level. By repairing DNA, improving oxygenation, and stimulating tissue regeneration, they help reverse visible signs of aging while restoring a naturally healthy glow.

 

Polynucleotides are especially effective for clients in their 40s and beyond who are seeking more than hydration - they want true skin repair, anti-aging benefits, and long-lasting results.

 

​

What Are Polynucleotides?

​

Polynucleotides are highly purified DNA fragments derived from natural sources (commonly salmon or trout DNA, chosen for its high biocompatibility with human skin). When injected into the skin, they:

​

• Stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin

• Improve microcirculation and oxygenation

• Neutralize harmful free radicals with antioxidant action

• Support cellular repair and regeneration

 

Unlike dermal fillers or skin boosters, polynucleotides do not add volume or only hydrate the skin - they actively repair and regenerate tissue, making them a unique treatment in the world of aesthetics.

​

Polynucleotides can be used to repair any area of skin where crepey, wrinkled texture is visible. They are also particularly effective at regenerating the delicate under eye area.

​

​

Benefits of Polynucleotides:

​

• Polynucleotides offer powerful skin-regenerating benefits, including:

• Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen and elastin

• Improved skin firmness and elasticity, counteracting sagging

• Enhanced skin tone and brightness, reducing dullness

• Repair of damaged or compromised skin, such as sun damage, scarring, or rosacea-prone skin

• Hydration boost, as PNs help skin retain moisture more effectively

• Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, protecting skin from further aging

• Safe and well tolerated, even for sensitive skin types

 

 

What to Expect During the Treatment

 

• At your consultation, we will assess your skin concerns and determine if polynucleotides are the right treatment for your needs

• Procedure: The treatment involves a series of small, superficial injections across the target area using very fine needles. Common treatment areas include the face, under-eyes, neck, décolletage, and hands

• Duration: The procedure usually takes 30–45 minutes

• Comfort: A topical numbing cream will be applied to make the treatment as comfortable as possible 

 

Aftercare and Recovery

​

Small lumps may be visible at the injection sites after treatment, these usually subside within 48 hours, but can take longer in some patients. Small pin point bruises may occur but these are generally minimal. It is recommended to avoid make up and strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours after treatment.

 

 

How Long Do Results Last?

​

Polynucleotides deliver gradual, regenerative results rather than instant changes. Most clients begin to notice improvements in skin quality after 2–3 weeks in terms of skin hydration, texture and glow.

 

Collagen rebuilding and fibroblast proliferation are processes which takes time, with optimal results seen after a full course of treatments.

• Treatment course: Typically 2–4 sessions, spaced 2–3 weeks apart

• Longevity: Results usually last 6–12 months, depending on skin condition, age, and lifestyle

• Maintenance: Annual or biannual top-ups are recommended to sustain long-term benefits

​

How Much Do Polynucleotides Cost?

​

Polynucleotides start from £160 for a single treatment.

Discounts are available for courses of treatment.
