What Are Polynucleotides?

Polynucleotides are an advanced regenerative injectable treatment designed to improve skin quality from within. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which add volume, polynucleotides work at a cellular level to stimulate the skin’s natural repair processes.

By encouraging the production of collagen and elastin, this treatment helps to restore hydration, improve elasticity and strengthen the skin’s overall structure – resulting in a fresher, healthier appearance over time.

How Do Polynucleotides Work?

Polynucleotides are made from purified DNA fragments that support skin regeneration. Once injected, they:

• Stimulate fibroblast activity (cells responsible for collagen production)

• Improve skin hydration and elasticity

• Repair damaged or weakened skin tissue

• Reduce inflammation and support healing

This makes them particularly effective for patients looking for natural, subtle rejuvenation rather than dramatic changes.

Benefits of Polynucleotide Treatment

Polynucleotide skin rejuvenation can help to:

• Improve skin texture, tone and radiance

• Reduce fine lines and early signs of ageing

• Strengthen fragile or environmentally damaged skin

• Deeply hydrate and revitalise dull skin

• Treat delicate areas such as the under-eye area and neck

• Support long-term skin health with minimal downtime

It’s an ideal treatment for both preventative skincare and age-related skin concerns.

Treatment Areas

Polynucleotides can be used to treat multiple areas of the face and body, including:

• Face

• Under-eye area

• Neck

Each area is treated separately to ensure the most precise and effective results.

What to Expect From Treatment

A typical course of treatment involves three sessions spaced 2–3 weeks apart, depending on your skin condition and treatment area.

The procedure itself is quick, usually taking around 30 minutes, with minimal downtime. You may experience slight redness or swelling, which typically settles within 24–48 hours.

Results develop gradually as collagen production increases, leaving the skin looking smoother, firmer and more hydrated.

How Long Do Results Last?

Results from polynucleotide treatment typically last 6–9 months or longer.

To maintain results, we recommend maintenance treatments every 6–9 months, depending on your skin type and skincare routine. These can also be incorporated into a personalised aesthetic treatment plan.

Who Is Polynucleotide Treatment Suitable For?

This treatment is suitable for both men and women who want to:

• Improve overall skin quality

• Address tired or dull-looking skin

• Treat delicate areas like under the eyes

• Avoid volume-heavy fillers

• Support long-term skin health

It is also an excellent option for:

• Younger patients starting preventative skincare

• Mature skin requiring deeper regenerative support
