Polynucleotides: The Future of Skin Regeneration
Treatment Introduction
Polynucleotides are revolutionising the field of aesthetic and regenerative medicine, offering a non-surgical solution for skin repair and rejuvenation.
With their ability to stimulate cellular renewal and enhance skin quality, polynucleotide treatments are becoming popular for individuals seeking natural and long-lasting improvements. Whether used to support post-surgical recovery or as a non-invasive skin booster, polynucleotides provide a powerful way to revitalise the skin.

Key Information
What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are chains of nucleotides, the essential building blocks of DNA. Derived from purified salmon DNA, these biocompatible molecules work by stimulating tissue regeneration, improving hydration and reducing inflammation.
Polynucleotides Treatment and Benefits
A polynucleotide treatment involves injecting purified polynucleotides into the skin to stimulate cellular repair and regeneration, which deliver a range of benefits, including:
- Stimulating collagen and elastin production, improving skin firmness and elasticity.
- Deep hydration, restoring moisture balance and improving skin texture.
- Anti-inflammatory properties, reducing redness and irritation.
- Cell turnover enhancement, addressing fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation.
These regenerative properties make polynucleotide skin boosters ideal for individuals looking to combat the effects of ageing, sun damage and environmental stressors.
Post-Surgical Recovery: Supporting the Healing Process
Polynucleotides are particularly beneficial after cosmetic surgery, as they accelerate tissue repair and improve overall healing. When used in post-surgical recovery, they help:
- Reduce inflammation and swelling.
- Enhance skin regeneration for smoother, more even results.
- Strengthen the skin’s barrier, reducing the risk of scarring.
Surgeons often recommend polynucleotide treatments following facelifts and other aesthetic procedures to optimise outcomes and promote long-term skin health.
A Non-Invasive Approach to Skin Rejuvenation
Polynucleotide treatments are also an effective standalone option for those seeking non-surgical skin enhancement, which can also continue to enhance results and be used for skin maintenance post-surgery. Suitable for delicate areas such as under the eyes, the neck and the décolletage, polynucleotide injections offer a gentle yet effective way to refresh the skin. With minimal invasiveness and natural-looking results, they are an excellent alternative to more aggressive aesthetic procedures.

Polynucleotides are suitable for a wide age range, typically from the 30s to 60s. They are particularly effective for:
- Individuals experiencing early signs of ageing
- Those with dehydrated, dull or sun-damaged skin
- Post-surgical skin maintenance
- People looking for a non-surgical treatment to improve skin quality
Polynucleotide Recovery and Aftercare
There is minimal downtime with polynucleotide treatments. Patients may experience mild redness or swelling, which typically subsides within 24–48 hours. Visible improvements in skin texture, hydration and elasticity develop gradually over the following weeks.
For optimal results, aftercare recommendations include:
- Staying well-hydrated to support skin regeneration.
- Avoiding excessive sun exposure and using high SPF protection.
- Following a gentle skincare routine to maintain skin health.
Whether used for post-surgical recovery, a preventative measure against ageing or for ongoing skin maintenance, polynucleotide treatments deliver impressive results with minimal disruption to daily life.
