Polynucleotide Treatment
How It Works
Polynucleotides target fibroblasts—the cells responsible for producing collagen, elastin, and connective tissue. As we age, fibroblast activity slows down, leading to visible signs of ageing such as dullness, wrinkles, and skin laxity.
By stimulating fibroblasts, polynucleotides help restart collagen and elastin production, promoting firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.

Frequently asked questions
Polynucleotide solution is injected into the desired area using very fine needles. The depth and pattern of the injections can vary based on the specific treatment goals.
You can expect smoother, firmer, brighter-looking skin that’s more even in tone and texture. For the best results, we always recommend a course of three to four treatments spaced a few weeks apart.
Polynucleotide treatment involves injections, so the experience can be likened to other injectable procedures. The level of discomfort varies from person to person, but many patients describe the sensation as a slight pinch or sting during the injection. Based on patient preferences, we can apply topical numbing cream to minimise any discomfort.
Most people will be suitable for polynucleotide treatment. However, if you are pregnant, breast-feeding or receiving IVF treatment, it may not be advisable to undergo this procedure. This will be determined at your consultation.
Polynucleotide treatments are generally considered safe when administered by trained professionals. As with any treatment, there are potential side effects, which might include pain at the injection site, bruising, swelling, and allergic reactions. It’s always essential to consult with a qualified healthcare provider before considering such treatments.
After the treatment, the patient might experience some redness, swelling, or bruising, which usually subsides within a week or two.
