Polynucleotide Skin Boosters
Biostimulatory injectables that repair, regenerate, and rejuvenate skin from within.
What Are Polynucleotide Skin Boosters?
Polynucleotide skin boosters are an advanced injectable treatment designed to stimulate natural skin repair. Unlike fillers or hydrating injectables, polynucleotides work at a deep level to encourage collagen and elastin production, rebuild skin structure, and restore skin quality over time.
These boosters are made from purified DNA fragments. They activate fibroblasts, which help your skin generate new collagen and elastin — key elements for firmer, more youthful skin. The treatment also improves skin’s ability to remain skin hydrated, leading to smoother, more radiant results.
At Apex Skin Clinic, polynucleotide skin boosters are used as part of our regenerative aesthetic programmes. The treatments are well suited to patients seeking improved skin quality without altering facial shape or adding volume. If you are wondering are polynucleotides safe?, the answer is yes. They are highly biocompatible, well researched in aesthetic and medical circles and suitable for all skin types.
Commonly referred to as: regenerative skin treatment, injectable cell therapy, DNA skin boosters, polynucleotide injections, natural skin repair therapy.

Polynucleotide treatments can target most areas for skin quality. They are popular for general face, under-eye and mouth areas, where they help with fine lines around the eyes, dark circles under eyes, and minor skin laxity. The eye area is one of the first areas to treat in a whole-face holistic rejuvenation plan.
Beyond the face, polynucleotides are effective for improving texture and firmness in the neck and décolletage. They also support skin regeneration in areas affected by sun exposure, scarring, or ageing.
For patients undergoing hair restoration, polynucleotides can strengthen the scalp, supporting healthier skin and follicles. Whether used alone or as part of a wider treatment plan, these regenerative injectables deliver improved skin tone and texture across a range of treatment areas.

Every treatment begins with a full consultation at Apex Skin Clinic. We will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and create a personalised treatment plan.
During the session, the treatment is performed using a fine needle or cannula. It usually takes around 30 minutes and is well tolerated, even in delicate areas such as the eye area.
Afterwards, you may notice mild swelling or small bumps at the injection sites, especially when treating the under eyes or cheeks. These typically settle within 24 to 48 hours.
You can expect to see the first signs of improved skin tone and hydration after one or two sessions. The full benefits of the treatment usually appear after two or three sessions. To achieve long-lasting results, we recommend an initial course of three treatments, spaced three to four weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every six months will help keep your skin in its best condition.

Many patients choose polynucleotide skin booster treatments because they offer subtle, natural improvement. They work with your body’s own regenerative ability, rather than forcing volume or immediate change.
For younger patients, polynucleotides provide a way to maintain skin quality and prevent early signs of ageing. For older patients or those with stressed skin, they help restore firmness, reduce fine lines, and improve tone.
The treatment is also ideal for those wanting to treat dark circles under eyes, early bags under eyes, or to improve skin texture without fillers. Polynucleotides are gentle enough to be used in sensitive areas and can be combined with other regenerative treatments such as microneedling, Profhilo, or LED therapy for even greater results.
Whether you are seeking prevention, correction, or overall skin renewal, polynucleotides are an excellent addition to your treatment plan.

Polynucleotides focus more on long-term regeneration, making them particularly effective for fine lines, dark circles, and stressed or ageing skin.

Patients often notice early improvements in hydration and skin texture within the first two sessions. The most significant benefits - firmer, brighter skin with smoother tone - usually appear gradually after two to three treatments, as collagen and elastin production increases.
-
Yes. Polynucleotide injections are especially effective for the under-eye area. They hydrate, strengthen thin skin, reduce pigmentation, and improve elasticity. This makes them a natural choice for treating dark circles, early bags under the eyes, and fine crepey lines.
-
For best results, we usually recommend an initial course of three sessions, spaced three to four weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every six months help to preserve skin quality and keep results looking fresh.
