What are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are a next-generation injectable treatment that supports the skin’s natural ability to repair and regenerate. Derived from purified DNA fragments, they work at a deeper level than standard hydrating treatments, improving skin quality, firmness, and resilience over time.
Rather than simply adding volume or moisture, polynucleotides stimulate the skin’s own cells, encouraging healthier tissue and a stronger, more elastic complexion.
At Lumiderm Skin Clinic, polynucleotide treatments are tailored to your skin’s needs, making them an excellent choice for areas where skin quality and fine lines are a concern.
Treatment Areas
We offer polynucleotide treatments across several areas, used individually or combined:
- Face - Improve overall skin quality, firmness, and texture
- Neck - Strengthen and refine the skin in an area prone to early ageing
- Décolletage - Rejuvenate and firm the chest area for a smoother appearance
- Eyes - Targeted treatment for the delicate under-eye area to improve quality and reduce fine lines
Add-ons allow you to extend a treatment beyond the face to neighbouring areas in the same session.
Benefits of Polynucleotides
- Improved skin quality, firmness, and elasticity
- Support for the skin’s natural repair and regeneration
- Smoother texture and reduced appearance of fine lines
- Brighter, healthier-looking skin
- Particularly effective for the delicate under-eye area
- Long-lasting, gradual improvement
Because polynucleotides work with the skin’s own biology, results build progressively and tend to be long lasting.
How Polynucleotide Treatment Works
During a session, a trained practitioner uses a fine needle to place small amounts of polynucleotide solution into targeted areas of the skin.
The treatment is minimally invasive with little to no downtime. A short course of sessions is usually recommended to achieve and maintain optimal results.
Comparing Polynucleotides with Other Treatments
| Treatment | Main Focus | Best For | Downtime |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hydradermabrasion | Cleansing, exfoliation, hydration | Dullness, fine lines, dryness | None |
| Microneedling | Collagen stimulation, skin renewal | Scars, wrinkles, uneven texture | 1 to 2 days |
| Mesotherapy | Nutrient delivery into the skin | Hydration, anti-ageing, glow | Minimal |
| Biorevitalisation | Deep hydration and skin repair | Dehydration, elasticity, dullness | Minimal |
| Polynucleotides | Tissue repair and regeneration | Skin quality, firmness, fine lines | Minimal |
Aftercare and Results
After a polynucleotide treatment, your skin may appear slightly red or feel sensitive, which usually settles within a few hours to a day.
We advise clients to:
- Use gentle skincare for the first 24 hours
- Avoid excessive sun exposure and always apply SPF
- Stay hydrated to support skin health
Results develop gradually over several weeks as the skin repairs and regenerates. A course of treatments is recommended for the best, longest-lasting results.

- Improved skin quality and firmness
- A smoother, more resilient complexion
- Reduction in the appearance of fine lines
