Polynucleotides
A considered approach to smoother, more supple skin.
Polynucleotide treatments offer a gradual approach to improving skin quality, with the aim of creating a fresher, naturally revitalised appearance. They may suit clients concerned about fine lines, changes in skin texture or a loss of elasticity.
Polynucleotides are highly purified fragments of DNA, commonly derived from fish sources, which are carefully injected into the skin. They are used to support an environment favourable to skin renewal and hydration. Early research suggests improvements in texture, elasticity and fine lines, although the evidence is still developing and results vary.
Potential benefits include:
Smoother-looking skin and improved texture.
A softer appearance to fine lines.
Improved hydration and suppleness.
A gradual improvement in overall skin quality.
During your appointment, the skin is cleansed and the product is administered through small injections. You may feel brief stinging or discomfort, and suitable comfort measures will be discussed beforehand. Small raised bumps, swelling, redness, tenderness or bruising can occur afterwards, particularly around the eyes. Your practitioner will explain the relevant risks, including infection and allergic reactions, alongside your personalised aftercare.
Improvements develop gradually over the weeks following treatment. A course of appointments may be recommended, with the spacing and any maintenance tailored to the chosen product and your response. We will discuss realistic expectations and review your progress as part of your care.
Please tell us about any allergies, particularly to fish, as well as your medical history and previous aesthetic treatments, so we can assess suitability carefully.
Our approach centres on subtle improvements, personal attention and honest guidance—helping you make a confident, informed choice about your skin.
