What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides have gained a firm footing in the field of medical aesthetics and regenerative medicine. They are derived from purified DNA strands, mainly sourced from wild salmon spermatozoa, and when made into a protein-based injectable gel, they work to stimulate and rejuvenate the skin. While originally used to treat severe burns by promoting tissue healing, polynucleotides have become a strong favourite in aesthetic medicine thanks to their ability to reverse signs of ageing.
When they are injected, polynucleotides work to stimulate the skin's natural regenerative processes. They work by encouraging fibroblasts, osteoblasts, and other key cells to promote the production of collagen and elastin – two important components of youthful, resilient skin. This cellular activity helps to improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity while stimulating new blood vessel formation to boost your overall skin health. Polynucleotides also have an anti-inflammatory effect, which can help calm the skin and reduce redness.
-
As we age, our skin's natural regenerative cycle slows significantly. In our 20s, skin cells renew approximately every three weeks, producing Type 1 collagen—commonly known as "good collagen." By the time we reach our 40s and beyond, this cycle can take six weeks or more, with new cells forming ageing collagen that lacks the vitality of its younger counterpart. The result? Thinning skin, fine lines, visible blood vessels, diffuse redness and uneven pigmentation.
Polynucleotides work to counteract these effects by reviving the skin's regenerative cycle. By providing the building blocks for collagen production and stimulating blood flow, they restore vibrancy and firmness to areas that have lost their elasticity. Lucy also recommends polynucleotides to those women who want to enhance the quality of their skin without more invasive procedures.

There are many polynucleotides benefits making this treatment ideal for a wide range of concerns. Lucy uses polynucleotides to:
Achieve subtle, natural-looking volume by stimulating your body's own collagen production.
Improve texture, tone, and elasticity of the skin for a healthier, more youthful appearance.
Address concerns such as hyperpigmentation and rosacea with the anti-inflammatory properties of polynucleotides.
Deliver results that last up to eight months with a consistent maintenance schedule.
Subtly improve the quality of the skin on the face, neck, hands, décolletage, and even knees.
Polynucleotides are a particularly appealing treatment option for women who prefer a more natural approach to facial rejuvenation, as they do not rely on hyaluronic acid fillers but instead enhance your skin's innate regenerative abilities.
-
Polynucleotides can be used effectively in a number of areas, rejuvenating the skin and restoring volume and elasticity to facilitate a brighter, more refreshed appearance. Polynucleotides under eyes are especially effective for addressing dark circles and fine lines in this delicate area. They are an excellent option for people who are susceptible to swelling under the eyes and not suitable for filler.
Lucy also uses Polynucleotides to:
Improve overall skin quality, reduce fine lines, and restore a natural glow to the face.
Address sagging skin and signs of ageing on the frequently overlooked neck and décolletage areas.
Rejuvenate thinning skin and reduce visible veins on the hands.
Tighten loose skin and improve texture on the knees.

Polynucleotides Before and After
What to Expect From Polynucleotides Treatment London
Personal Consultation
Your first appointment with Lucy will involve an in-depth discussion about your skin concerns and aesthetic goals. During this consultation, Lucy will assess your skin and explain how polynucleotide treatment can address your needs. This collaborative approach ensures that your treatment plan is tailored to your unique beauty goals and individuality while ensuring the desired results.
The Treatment Process
On the day of your treatment, Lucy will prepare the treatment area by numbing and sterilizing the skin. Using a fine needle or cannula, she will administer the polynucleotides as small deposits( “mesotherapy” technique) around the eyes or neck. You may feel a mild stinging sensation during the injections, but this subsides quickly, and most patients find the treatment to be comfortable. Alternatively, they may be administered with the delicate use of a cannula.
Post-Treatment and Aftercare
Immediately after the procedure, you may notice small, visible deposits of the product or mild swelling in the treated area. These effects typically resolve within a day or three as the product diffuses and begins to stimulate collagen and elastin production.
Lucy will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding strenuous activity or excessive sun exposure. The results will develop gradually, with the full effects becoming evident about 30 days after your final session.
Maintenance
For the best results, Lucy usually recommends a series of two to three treatments spaced three to four weeks apart. This will be followed by maintenance treatments every six to eight months. With regular upkeep, you can enjoy an ongoing glow to your skin with a firmer feel and healthy appearance.
