Book a ConsultationPolynucleotides are designed for people who want to improve the quality of their skin without adding noticeable facial volume or changing the shape of their features.

Common concerns we treat
Supporting your skin from within
Polynucleotides are placed within the skin using a series of small, carefully positioned injections. Rather than filling a line or creating facial structure, the treatment is intended to support the condition and appearance of the skin over time.
Depending on the formulation and area, treatment may help improve hydration, texture, elasticity and the appearance of fine lines. The product, technique and schedule are selected following consultation.

A proper conversation
Polynucleotides may be suitable for adults concerned about fine lines, crepey texture, reduced elasticity, tired-looking eyes or an overall decline in skin quality. Treatment may not be appropriate during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or where there is an active infection, certain medical conditions, allergies or medication that affects suitability.
Some products are derived from fish sources, so allergies and the ingredients of the specific product must be checked carefully. Not sure if this is the right treatment for your concern?
