Doagh, County Antrim
Polynucleotides, Doagh
People travel to NUA Aesthetic from Doagh for polynucleotide treatment because the clinic is deliberately small. One nurse, one room, and appointments that are not stacked back to back.
The treatment itself: injectable biostimulators derived from purified DNA fragments that trigger your skin's own collagen and elastin production. What that means in practice is discussed at your consultation, in plain terms.
The studio is in Carryduff, County Down, and also sees clients from Ballyeaston, Millbank, Newtownabbey and the surrounding County Antrim area. The exact address is sent once your appointment is confirmed.
Booking from Doagh
Lauren is a registered Children's Nurse who graduated with First Class Honours from Northumbria University, and holds CIDESCO and ITEC qualifications in beauty therapy. That combination is unusual, and it is why polynucleotide treatment here is treated as a clinical decision first and a cosmetic one second. Doagh clients see the same practitioner at every appointment.
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
Polynucleotides questions, answered for Doagh
How long do results last?
Results typically last six to nine months. Maintenance is discussed at your review so you can plan around it.
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 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.
Are they safe for all skin types?
Polynucleotides are biocompatible and generally very well tolerated, which makes them suitable for most skin types following a thorough consultation. Lauren assesses your suitability at your first appointment.
Is there parking available?
Yes, parking is straightforward at the studio, which is one of the practical advantages over a town centre clinic for anyone driving in from Doagh.
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.
What are the appointment times like?
NUA runs by appointment only with flexible scheduling, including times outside standard working hours. That tends to suit clients travelling from Doagh who would rather not take time off work.
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 Doagh clients.
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.
How many sessions will I need?
Usually three to four sessions spaced about two to four weeks apart. The effect is cumulative, so the course is what delivers the result. A single session on its own will not do much.
