Polynucleotide Skin Booster Treatment

If you are looking for an effective treatment that gives natural results, then the Polynucleotide skin booster may be for you.

Injectable moisturisers have been popular over the past few years, delivering hydration and skin conditioning for a skin glow. Unlike hyaluronic acid skin boosters, polynucleotides are more like food or medicine for the cells.

Backed by 41 years of scientific research and development, Polynucleotides are the ultimate solution for skin regeneration. VITARAN is the latest, 100% quality-controlled polynucleotide, embodying the highest level of aesthetic innovation.

This popular treatment enhances collagen production, diminishes signs of aging, and is renowned for improving skin hydration, enhancing skin tone, and diminishing wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful and radiant appearance.

Areas that can be treated with Polynucleotide

It is best to have a face-to-face consultation to assess the area first to decide what course of treatment is best. This treatment is commonly used in the following areas:

  • Under the eyes
  • Décolleté
  • Face
  • Neck
  • Hands

To maintain results, maintenance treatments are recommended every 12-18 months.

Polynucleotide skin booster treatment FAQs

Polynucleotide skin boosters are injectable skin rejuvenation treatments that use purified DNA fragments to support the skin’s natural repair and renewal processes.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which are primarily used to restore volume, polynucleotides are designed to improve overall skin quality. Research suggests they may support fibroblast activity, collagen production and skin hydration, helping to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and uneven skin texture.
At Spa-licious in Gerrards Cross, we use VITARAN polynucleotide treatments to help clients achieve healthier, smoother and more radiant-looking skin.

Polynucleotide skin boosters are increasingly used to improve the appearance of delicate, ageing skin around the eyes.
They may help improve skin hydration, elasticity and the appearance of fine lines and crepey skin, making them an option for clients concerned about tired-looking eyes.
However, dark circles can have several causes, including pigmentation, genetics, volume loss and visible blood vessels. Polynucleotides may not address every type of under-eye concern.
During your consultation at Spa-licious, we’ll assess your skin and discuss whether polynucleotide treatment is suitable for your individual needs.

The number of polynucleotide treatments required depends on your skin condition, the area being treated and your individual goals.
A course of two to three sessions is commonly recommended, with treatments typically spaced approximately three to four weeks apart, although protocols vary between products.
Some clients notice early improvements in skin hydration and texture within a few weeks, with further changes developing gradually.
At Spa-licious, maintenance treatments may be recommended every 12–18 months, depending on your skin’s response and the results achieved.

Polynucleotide skin boosters are administered through a series of small injections into the skin. At Spa-licious, numbing cream is applied before treatment to help minimise discomfort.
Following your appointment, you may notice small raised bumps at the injection sites, along with temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or bruising.
These effects generally settle within a few days, although recovery varies between individuals and treatment areas.
As with any injectable procedure, there are also less common risks, including infection and allergic reactions. Your practitioner will explain these during your consultation and provide personalised aftercare instructions.

Both polynucleotides and Profhilo are injectable skin rejuvenation treatments, but they contain different ingredients and work in different ways.
Polynucleotides contain purified DNA fragments and are used to support skin repair and improve skin quality, including the appearance of fine lines, crepey skin and uneven texture.
Profhilo contains a high concentration of hyaluronic acid and primarily focuses on improving skin hydration, elasticity and firmness.
Neither treatment is intended to provide the same targeted volumising effect as traditional dermal fillers.
At Spa-licious, we offer both polynucleotide skin boosters and Profhilo. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your skin concerns and help determine which treatment may be most suitable.

At Spa-licious in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, polynucleotide skin booster treatments start from £120 per session.
The total cost will depend on the area being treated and the number of sessions recommended.
Treatment areas include the face, under-eyes, neck, décolletage and hands, with appointments typically lasting between 30 and 75 minutes.
Whether you’re looking to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines or rejuvenate delicate skin around the eyes, our experienced team can help you explore your options.

Before & After Polynucleotide Treatment Results

What are the benefits?

The treatment involves the introduction of polynucleotides, promoting natural skin revival by boosting collagen production and reducing signs of aging. It is known for its ability to enhance skin hydration, improve your skin tone and reduce wrinkles, ensuring a more youthful and radiant appearance. 

The treatment effectively reduces skin inflammation, leading to prolonged relief from rosacea redness.

It also functions as wound healing agents signaling your skin to intensely repair. This helps improve scars, reduce stretch marks, and improve skin texture concerns Additionally, it prepares your skin for energy-based treatments such as laser or ultrasound.

What to expect

Before your treatment numbing cream is used. Polynucleotides are then injected very superficially into your skin. We use very tiny needles leaving tiny blebs on the surface. These blebs can disappear over a few hours but may remain for longer in some people.

You may notice small bumps at the injection sites while the product is absorbed – this is normal and subsides within a day or two. If you are having your neck treated, the blebs may last a little longer as skin there is finer. You may also experience mild redness, tenderness or mild swelling temporarily. With any superficial injectable treatment, there is a small risk of minimal post-treatment bruising.
