Cargan, County Antrim
Polynucleotides, Cargan
Cargan sits within easy reach of the NUA studio in Carryduff, which is where polynucleotide treatment appointments for County Antrim clients are carried out.
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.
The studio is in Carryduff, County Down, and also sees clients from Carnlough, Kells-Connor, Aughafatten and the surrounding County Antrim area. The exact address is sent once your appointment is confirmed.
Why Cargan clients choose NUA
Treatments are carried out in a private home studio rather than a clinic floor, which most Cargan clients say is the part they did not expect to value. There is no reception, no overlap with other appointments, and no rush at the end.
What Polynucleotides involves
Skin assessment
Lauren assesses skin thickness, hydration, barrier condition and the areas that concern you, then confirms whether polynucleotides are the right starting point.
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.
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.
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
Questions Cargan clients ask about polynucleotide treatment
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 Cargan clients.
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 Cargan?
Yes. NUA Aesthetic treats clients from across County Antrim, including Cargan. Treatments are carried out at the private studio in Carryduff, and the address is confirmed when you book.
How do they compare with Profhilo?
Both are biostimulators rather than fillers, but they work differently. Polynucleotides focus on cellular repair and skin regeneration. Profhilo is hyaluronic acid based and focuses on deep hydration and laxity. Lauren will recommend one over the other, or a sequence of both, depending on what your skin actually needs.
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.
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.
Can I combine polynucleotide treatment with other treatments?
Yes. Polynucleotides sequences well with several other treatments, and Lauren will plan the order so each one has room to work rather than doing everything at once.
What should I do before my appointment?
Come with clean skin and no make-up if possible, avoid alcohol the night before to reduce bruising risk, and let Lauren know about any medication or supplements you take, particularly blood thinners.
How do I book polynucleotide treatment from Cargan?
Booking is through the online system, where you can pick a consultation or treatment slot that suits you. Lauren confirms the appointment and sends the studio address. You can also call or message if you would rather talk it through first.
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.
