If you’re on a journey to healthier, more radiant skin, you’ve likely heard the buzz around polynucleotides. This cutting-edge injectable treatment is fast becoming one of the most sought-after aesthetic procedures across Kent and London—and for good reason. But what exactly are polynucleotides, and why are they gaining so much attention?
What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are biostimulating molecules derived from purified DNA fragments. While that may sound a little science-heavy, the outcome is simple: these naturally occurring molecules work deep within your skin to regenerate, repair, and restore.
Unlike dermal fillers or anti-wrinkle injections that offer instant volume or muscle relaxation, polynucleotides work on a cellular level. They improve your skin’s natural function over time by stimulating fibroblasts (the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin), increasing hydration, and reducing inflammation. The result? Smoother, firmer, healthier skin with a natural glow that builds gradually.
Why Is Everyone Talking About Them?
Polynucleotides are quickly becoming the “quiet luxury” of aesthetics. They don’t drastically change your features—but they do make your skin look well-rested, luminous, and youthful, often prompting comments like “you look great, but I can’t quite tell what you’ve had done.”
In aesthetic circles across London and Kent, clients are loving polynucleotide treatments for their subtle, regenerative results and minimal downtime. They’re especially popular among those who want a more natural approach to anti-ageing or who are looking for an alternative to fillers.
What Can Polynucleotides Treat?
Polynucleotides are incredibly versatile and can be used on multiple areas of the face and body. Common concerns treated include:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Dull, tired-looking skin
• Acne scarring or post-inflammatory pigmentation
• Under-eye hollows and dark circles
• Skin laxity and loss of elasticity
• Red or irritated skin from inflammation or sun exposure
Where Can They Be Used?
Polynucleotide injections are especially effective in delicate or traditionally difficult-to-treat areas, such as:
• Under the eyes
• Neck and décolletage
• Hands
• Full face
• Scarring and stretch marks on the body
What to Expect During Treatment
The treatment process is straightforward and comfortable. A high-quality numbing cream is applied to minimise discomfort, and the product is injected into the chosen areas using fine needles. Most people describe the sensation as mild, and sessions typically take around 30 minutes.
There’s little to no downtime—some mild swelling or redness is normal and usually resolves within 24–48 hours. For optimal results, a course of 2–3 treatments spaced a few weeks apart is recommended, followed by maintenance sessions every few months.
Why Choose Polynucleotides Over Other Skin Boosters?
While other injectable skin boosters like Profhilo focus primarily on hydration, polynucleotides offer multi-dimensional skin regeneration. They not only hydrate but also actively promote tissue healing, cell repair, and anti-inflammatory effects. They’re especially ideal for clients who are noticing the first signs of ageing or those recovering from skin stressors like acne, sun damage, or cosmetic procedures.
