What are polynucleotide injections?
Polynucleotide injections are a treatment used to support the quality and condition of the skin, including the delicate area around the eyes. They are intended to help improve skin hydration, texture and overall quality rather than to fill or plump lines.
Who it may be suitable for
The treatment may suit adults who wish to improve the quality of the skin around the eyes. It is not suitable for everyone, and suitability is confirmed at consultation after reviewing your skin and medical history.
Your consultation
Miss Paul assesses your skin and concerns, reviews your medical history, and discusses what the treatment can and cannot achieve, so you have realistic expectations before proceeding.
Your treatment
Treatment usually involves a course of small injections into the target area, typically spaced over several weeks. The number of sessions is individualised to you.
Aftercare
Mild redness, swelling or small bruises may occur and usually settle within a few days. You will be given aftercare advice, and results develop gradually. The effects are not permanent, and maintenance may be advised.
Risks and side effects
Possible side effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising and tenderness at the injection sites, and, rarely, other reactions. Miss Paul will discuss these with you beforehand.
