Book ConsultationAbout Polynucleotides

In short: injectable biostimulators derived from purified DNA fragments that trigger your skin's own collagen and elastin production. Lauren will tell you if it is not the right treatment for you, which happens more often than you might expect.

Appointments run from a private home studio in Carryduff. Ballynure clients often book alongside neighbours from Donegore and Millbank, and parking is straightforward.

Booking from Ballynure

The clinical background matters. An NMC registration means accountability, record keeping and a duty of care that a beauty qualification alone does not carry. For Ballynure clients considering polynucleotide treatment, that is worth checking wherever you end up going.

What Polynucleotides involves

  1. Skin assessment

    Lauren assesses skin thickness, hydration, barrier condition and the areas that concern you, then confirms whether polynucleotides are the right starting point.

  2. Treatment

    A series of small injections placed across the treatment area using a very fine needle. The appointment takes around forty-five minutes including preparation.

  3. The course

    Three to four sessions spaced two to four weeks apart. The regenerative effect is cumulative, so the course matters more than any single session.

  4. Maintenance

    Results typically hold for six to nine months, after which a single maintenance session keeps the improvement in place.

Who it suits

  • Dull or tired-looking skin that no longer bounces back
  • Thin or fragile skin, including the delicate under-eye area
  • Early signs of ageing where structure matters more than volume
  • Fine lines driven by skin quality rather than muscle movement
  • A damaged or reactive skin barrier

Polynucleotides questions, answered for Ballynure

What exactly do polynucleotides do?

They are injectable skin boosters made from highly purified DNA fragments that help repair, hydrate and improve skin quality from within. They work at a cellular level by up-regulating fibroblast cells, triggering natural collagen and elastin production while actively neutralising free radicals.

How long do the results last?

Typically six to nine months following a full course, with maintenance sessions recommended to sustain the improvement.

What if polynucleotide treatment is not right for me?

Then Lauren will say so at the consultation and talk through what would suit your skin better. Being told no is a reasonable outcome of an honest assessment, and it happens regularly.

How long do results last?

Results typically last six to nine months. Maintenance is discussed at your review so you can plan around it.

Can I combine polynucleotides with other treatments?

Yes. They pair particularly well with microneedling and with lines and wrinkles treatment, since they address different things. Lauren will sequence treatments so each one has room to work.

Is there downtime?

Minimal. You may have small bumps, redness or mild swelling for 24 to 48 hours. Most people are comfortable going about their normal day, though many prefer to book before a quiet evening.

Can polynucleotides be used under the eyes?

Yes, and it is one of the areas where they perform best. The under-eye skin is thin and often crepey, and polynucleotides improve quality and resilience there without adding the volume that filler would.

How much does polynucleotide treatment cost?

Pricing is listed openly on this page and is the same for all clients regardless of where they travel from. There is no separate charge for the consultation and no call-out or travel fee for Ballynure clients.

Do I need a consultation before polynucleotide treatment?

Yes. Every treatment includes a consultation so Lauren can assess your skin and confirm the plan is right for you. It is included in the appointment rather than charged separately.

Is there any downtime?

Minimal. Small bumps and mild redness for 24 to 48 hours. Aftercare guidance is given at the appointment, and Lauren is contactable afterwards if anything concerns you.

Are polynucleotides suitable if I have sensitive skin?

Often yes. Because they support barrier repair rather than aggressively resurfacing, they are frequently a good option for reactive skin. This is assessed individually at consultation.

Do you offer polynucleotide treatment to clients in Ballynure?

Yes. NUA Aesthetic treats clients from across County Antrim, including Ballynure. Treatments are carried out at the private studio in Carryduff, and the address is confirmed when you book.
