How does it work?

Polynucleotide injections work on a cellular level to repair and regenerate the skin. These bio-stimulators boost collagen, improve hydration, and enhance elasticity for a stronger, healthier complexion over time. Perfect for patients seeking a natural skin rejuvenation treatment in Northern Ireland with minimal downtime.

FAQs

No. Polynucleotides do not add volume and are not dermal fillers. They are designed to improve skin quality, elasticity, and resilience rather than create fullness or alter facial contours. The outcome is subtle and natural- skin looks healthier, stronger, and more refreshed.

This is a common misconception. Polynucleotides are highly purified DNA fragments, that are taken from fish sperm initially, but they then that undergo extensive medical processing. There is no fish sperm in the final product. The treatment is safe, biocompatible, and used widely in medical and aesthetic regenerative treatments.

Polynucleotides are particularly effective in areas where the skin is thin, delicate, or crepey. Common treatment areas include the under-eye area to help with fine lines and darkness, or the, neck, décolletage, and hands, where they help improve skin texture, hydration, and resilience over time.

A minimum course of 3 treatments is recommended for optimal results, typically spaced a few weeks apart. At Dr. Victoria Clinic we use tiny, specialist nano-needles to ensure precision and maximise comfort during treatment. Although common, we don’t use a cannula in our clinic for polynucleotides, as it is impossible to get superficial enough to treat the right layer of skin with a cannula, therefore product is wasted and results are sub-optimal. Most patients find the procedure very well tolerated, with minimal downtime.
