Polynucleotides have become one of the most talked‑about regenerative treatments in modern aesthetics.
Their ability to support long‑term skin health, hydration and repair makes them a powerful option for anyone looking to restore glow, improve texture or strengthen their skin from within.
This guide explains how they work, what they can help with and what you can expect if you choose this treatment in Newquay.
Polynucleotide injections in Newquay are growing in popularity as more people seek gentle, regenerative options that support long-term skin health.
Polynucleotides are naturally occurring molecules that help the skin repair, rebuild and restore itself. These molecules work beneath the surface in a way that feels supportive and gradual, encouraging the skin to renew itself over time.
They have been used in medicine for many years due to their ability to support tissue healing, hydration balance and cell renewal. In aesthetics, they offer a regenerative approach that encourages the skin to function at its best rather than masking concerns.
They improve hydration, elasticity and overall skin quality by supporting the body’s own regenerative processes, helping the skin behave more like it used to.
Their gentle nature also makes them suitable for those who prefer a skin‑first approach that focuses on long‑term health rather than instant, dramatic changes.
Polynucleotides encourage cellular repair by supporting fibroblast activity, which plays a key role in producing collagen and maintaining healthy skin structure. This process helps the skin look smoother, firmer and more hydrated over time.
Polynucleotides work by supporting the skin’s natural repair processes rather than relaxing muscles or adding volume. This creates gradual, natural-looking improvements in hydration, texture and firmness.
Many people choose them because they fit a subtle, skin-first approach that aligns with long-term skin health.
Polynucleotides are suitable for a wide range of concerns linked to texture, hydration and early skin ageing. Their regenerative properties make them a versatile option for anyone looking to brighten, smooth and strengthen their complexion.
By supporting the skin’s natural repair processes, they can help improve visible concerns while also enhancing the skin’s overall health and resilience.
Polynucleotides support healthier collagen function, which can soften the appearance of fine lines and help the skin stay firm and elastic.
As collagen production naturally slows over time, these treatments provide gentle regenerative support that helps restore bounce and suppleness.
Many people find this particularly beneficial around areas that show early signs of ageing, such as the eyes, mouth and forehead, where subtle improvements can make the complexion look more refreshed.
Because polynucleotides help the skin retain moisture and improve its natural barrier, they can boost radiance and deliver long‑lasting hydration. This improved moisture balance supports a smoother texture.
Many people also explore Skin Boosters as a complementary hydration treatment, which can help the skin look more luminous day to day. Strengthening the skin barrier also reduces the likelihood of tightness, dryness or irritation.

Their regenerative qualities support tissue repair, which can improve the look of mild scarring and uneven texture over time.
Polynucleotides promote healthier cell turnover and strengthen the skin’s structure. This can work well alongside Microneedling for those on a texture‑focused plan, which gradually helps soften the appearance of post‑acne marks or areas of roughness.
When included within a long‑term plan, they can complement other texture‑focused treatments and help the skin become smoother and more uniform.
The under‑eye area often loses elasticity as the skin naturally thins. Polynucleotides can help improve hydration and support delicate tissue, leading to a fresher, more rested appearance.
Because they focus on regeneration rather than adding volume, they offer a subtle approach that maintains the natural shape of the eyes while improving brightness, smoothness and skin quality. Many people choose this option when they want gentle rejuvenation without dramatic changes.
A treatment session is designed to feel calm and comfortable from start to finish.
Each step focuses on assessing your skin, preparing the area and ensuring you feel supported throughout your appointment. Appointments are typically brief, and most people can resume their day shortly afterwards.
Your appointment begins with a gentle, detailed conversation about your skin goals, overall health and any concerns you would like to address. This helps create a personalised plan that aligns with your skin’s needs while ensuring the treatment is suitable for you.
Polynucleotides are injected using precise, small placements across the treatment area to keep the treatment feeling controlled and comfortable. The process is typically quick and involves minimal discomfort. Most people describe the sensation as light pressure or tiny pinpricks.
A treatment session often takes around thirty minutes, depending on the area. You may be advised to avoid makeup and certain skincare products immediately after your appointment to support healing and maintain the skin’s comfort.
Mild redness or small bumps may appear immediately after treatment, and these tend to settle quickly as the skin begins to calm and rebalance.
You will be given tailored aftercare advice to support healing and help your skin make the most of the regenerative process in the days that follow. Most people return to their usual activities straight away, and simple aftercare, such as gentle cleansing and avoiding intense heat, can support the best results.
Polynucleotides are often completed as part of a short treatment course, and your practitioner may discuss the ideal schedule to suit your goals.
Polynucleotides build results gradually, which is why they work so well for achieving natural, healthy-looking changes that unfold in a way that feels comfortable and unforced. Improvements develop over several weeks as the skin regenerates and becomes more resilient.
In the days and weeks after treatment, many people notice brighter skin, improved hydration and a smoother overall texture as the skin responds to the increased moisture and repair activity. These early changes come from the skin’s increased moisture levels and initial repair response.
As collagen and elastin production is better supported, the skin can feel firmer, more even, and visibly refreshed, with texture and tone improving in a way that feels natural to the individual. These deeper improvements continue to develop gradually, giving long‑lasting results that still look natural.
Polynucleotides can help address a variety of skin concerns, and their gentle, regenerative approach makes them suitable for people of all ages and skin types.
They suit those who want to care for their skin in a way that feels gradual, calm and aligned with long-term skin health. They work particularly well for those who wish to make long‑term improvements in hydration, texture and overall skin health.
Their versatility means they can support early-stage ageing prevention, help restore balance to skin that feels dull or depleted, and offer a gradual option for anyone who prefers a natural, skin‑first approach to rejuvenation.
They can also support those who experience sensitivity or dryness, as the treatment focuses on strengthening the skin barrier and improving overall resilience so the skin feels more comfortable day to day.
Many people choose polynucleotides when they want to complement their existing routine with something restorative, or when they feel their skin needs additional support after periods of stress, seasonal changes or environmental exposure.
Their subtle results make them a thoughtful option for those seeking gentle but meaningful improvements.
