Polynucleotides have gained attention on TV and social media, often nicknamed “salmon sperm injections,” though they do not contain sperm — they are purified DNA and RNA fragments derived from salmon for their regenerative properties.
Polynucleotides are an advanced regenerative treatment designed to repair, hydrate, and revitalise the skin at a cellular level – improving skin quality, and restoring elasticity and vitality from within.
Rather than adding volume or altering facial structure, polynucleotides focus on skin health and function, making them ideal for clients seeking natural rejuvenation and long-term improvement in skin quality.
How Polynucleotides Work
Polynucleotides act as powerful bio-stimulators within the skin. Once injected, they help to:
- Support cellular repair and regeneration
- Improve skin elasticity and firmness
- Enhance deep hydration
- Strengthen the skin barrier
- Improve overall skin texture and tone
- Promote healthier, more resilient skin over time
Because they work with the body’s natural processes, results are gradual, subtle, and exceptionally natural-looking.
What Polynucleotides Are Best For
Polynucleotides are particularly effective for:
- Dull, dehydrated, or tired-looking skin
- Fine lines caused by skin quality rather than volume loss
- Crepey or fragile skin
- Early signs of ageing
- Skin requiring repair or strengthening
- Clients wanting a regenerative, non-volumising treatment
They are suitable for a wide range of skin types and ages and can be used as both a corrective and preventative treatment.
Common Treatment Areas
Polynucleotides can be used in delicate and challenging areas where skin quality is key, including:
- Under-eye area
- Face
- Neck
- Décolletage
- Hands
These areas benefit from improved hydration, elasticity, and resilience rather than added volume.
What to Expect from Treatment
Treatment involves a series of small, precise injections, performed with care and precision. Most clients experience minimal downtime, with possible mild redness or swelling that typically settles quickly.
A course of treatments is often recommended for optimal results, followed by maintenance sessions to sustain skin quality over time.
Why Choose Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are ideal for clients who:
- Want natural, skin-focused rejuvenation
- Prefer regenerative treatments over fillers
- Wish to improve skin quality without changing facial shape
- Are looking for long-term skin health and prevention
They pair exceptionally well with other treatments such as PRP, microneedling, and skin boosters as part of a comprehensive skin plan.
The Bottom Line
Polynucleotides are a powerful, science-backed option for restoring skin health, hydration, and vitality at a cellular level.
If your goal is stronger, healthier, more resilient skin — with results that look completely natural — polynucleotides offer a refined and effective solution.
