Polynucleotide skin boosters in London
A regenerative skin booster, from £220 a session at the practices that publish it.
London Polynucleotides connects you with practitioners at UNTIL Marylebone and UNTIL Soho who give polynucleotide skin boosters, injections that improve the quality of the skin itself rather than adding volume, over a course of three sessions.
The short answer
What is a skin booster?
A skin booster is any injectable designed to improve how skin looks and behaves, its hydration, texture, firmness and glow, rather than to change the shape of the face. The term is marketing rather than medicine, so products with very different ways of working are all sold as skin boosters.
Polynucleotides are one of them. They are purified DNA fragments from salmon or trout that prompt the skin's own cells to make collagen and elastin and to hold more water, so the change builds over about two months. Polynucleotide injections in London explains the treatment in full.

Types of skin booster injections
Three kinds are sold under the name. The right one depends on what your skin lacks, which is what the assessment is for.
Hyaluronic acid skin boosters
A light, mostly non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid injected in small amounts across the face. They draw water into the skin, so the main effect is hydration and glow, often noticeable within a couple of weeks. They are the most common booster and usually need a short course and top-ups.
Polynucleotide skin boosters
DNA fragments that act as a biostimulator, prompting the skin's own collagen, elastin and water-holding. The change is slower, building over about eight weeks, and aims at thickness and texture as well as hydration. They are often chosen for thin, delicate skin such as the under-eye.
Hyaluronic acid bio-remodellers
A concentrated hyaluronic acid placed at a few fixed points that spreads under the skin and is marketed for firmness as well as hydration. It works mainly by drawing in water rather than by signalling the skin's cells, and some practitioners combine it with polynucleotides in one plan.
Under-eye skin boosters
Under the eyes the skin is thin and bruises easily, and a hyaluronic acid product placed too close to the surface can look puffy or bluish. That is why polynucleotides are a common choice for an under-eye skin booster: they add no volume and act on the quality of the skin. They help crepey, thin, shadowed skin; they do not fill a hollow, which needs a different treatment. Polynucleotides under eyes in London covers the area in detail.
Skin booster before and after: what changes
With a polynucleotide skin booster, little changes in the first two weeks apart from small bumps that settle in a few days. From around week four the skin usually looks brighter and more even, and by weeks eight to twelve it looks and feels thicker, with softer fine lines. Hyaluronic acid boosters tend to show hydration sooner and fade sooner. Compare before-and-after photographs only when they are taken in the same light and at the same angle, and ask the practitioner for their own.

FAQ
Skin boosters
questions answered
Is a polynucleotide a skin booster?
Yes. Polynucleotides are sold as a skin booster because they improve skin quality without adding volume, though they work differently from hyaluronic acid boosters by prompting the skin’s own repair. London Polynucleotides suggests asking which kind a quote is for before comparing prices.
How long do skin boosters last?
A course of polynucleotide skin boosters usually lasts six to nine months before a maintenance session. Hyaluronic acid boosters tend to need topping up sooner. London Polynucleotides suggests asking the practitioner how long the product they recommend usually lasts on skin like yours.
Do skin booster injections hurt?
Most people find them manageable. Numbing cream is usually applied first and the needle is very fine, though the under-eye is more sensitive. London Polynucleotides notes that small bumps after the injections are expected and settle in one to three days.
How do I choose between skin booster types?
It depends on what your skin lacks. Mainly dehydrated skin often suits hyaluronic acid; thin, crepey or under-eye skin often suits polynucleotides; some people have both. London Polynucleotides connects you with practitioners who decide at an assessment, not from a menu.
