Book ConsultationAbout Polynucleotides

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 Mounthill, Cushendall, Mill Bay and the surrounding County Antrim area. The exact address is sent once your appointment is confirmed.

What to expect as a Glenarm client

Treatments are carried out in a private home studio rather than a clinic floor, which most Glenarm 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

  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

Questions Glenarm clients ask about polynucleotide treatment

Are polynucleotides the same as filler?

No. They do not add volume or change your face shape. Filler sits in the skin and creates structure physically. Polynucleotides stimulate your own skin to repair and rebuild, so the change comes from your own tissue rather than from the product.

Who will carry out my treatment?

Lauren, every time. She is an NMC registered nurse and CIDESCO qualified skin specialist. There is no rotating team, so Glenarm clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.

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.

Does it hurt?

There is some discomfort, as with any injectable treatment, but the needles are very fine and the sensation is brief. Most people find it very manageable.

Do you offer polynucleotide treatment to clients in Glenarm?

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

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 I book polynucleotide treatment from Glenarm?

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.

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.

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.

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 Glenarm clients.

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.
