What It Treats

Polynucleotide therapy is an advanced biostimulatory treatment designed to restore the skin’s structure and resilience at a cellular level.
Polynucleotides (PNs) are naturally derived DNA fragments that boost fibroblast activity, collagen synthesis, and tissue regeneration.
This treatment is ideal for patients seeking natural rejuvenation and firmness without added volume.
It effectively treats:

  • Loss of elasticity and firmness
  • Fine lines and mild laxity
  • Dull, dehydrated, or crepey skin
  • Early signs of ageing in the face, neck, or décolletage

More Information

What are polynucleotides?

Polynucleotides are naturally derived DNA fragments that stimulate cell regeneration, collagen production, and tissue repair. They improve skin elasticity, hydration, and overall texture without adding volume.

How does polynucleotide skin tightening work?

Once injected, polynucleotides activate fibroblasts in the skin, encouraging collagen and elastin synthesis. This rejuvenates the skin from within, making it firmer, smoother, and more radiant over time.

What areas can be treated?

Common treatment areas include the face, neck, under-eye region, décolletage, and hands. It can also be used on delicate or sun-damaged skin that requires regeneration.

Who is suitable for this treatment?

This treatment is suitable for anyone seeking natural skin tightening and revitalisation without fillers. It’s ideal for mild skin laxity, fine lines, or dull, dehydrated skin.

Is it similar to Profhilo or other skin boosters?

Polynucleotides work differently from hyaluronic acid-based boosters. Instead of just hydrating, they repair and regenerate skin cells for longer-lasting improvements in firmness and quality.

How many treatments will I need?

A course of three sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart is typically recommended for optimal results, followed by maintenance every 6–9 months.

When will I see results?

Results develop gradually, with visible improvement in tone and elasticity after 3–6 weeks as new collagen forms.

Is the treatment painful?

Discomfort is minimal. A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to ensure comfort during the procedure.

How long do results last?

Results typically last between 6–12 months depending on skin condition, lifestyle, and maintenance treatments.

Is the treatment safe?

Yes. Polynucleotides are biocompatible and clinically tested for safety. All procedures are performed by GMC-registered doctors in a CQC-registered clinic.
