At Bellissima Beauty & Aesthetics, we specialise in advanced aesthetic treatments that support healthy, youthful-looking skin. One of our most innovative options are polynucleotides – a cutting-edge solution designed to stimulate deep skin regeneration.
Polynucleotides are naturally derived molecules that help repair, hydrate, and rejuvenate the skin from within. Unlike fillers, they work by boosting your skin’s own healing and renewal processes.
Polynucleotide treatments can help:
These treatments offer a subtle, natural-looking boost with long-term skin health benefits.

Polynucleotides are natural compounds derived from DNA fragments, specifically formulated to repair and rejuvenate skin at a cellular level. These powerful molecules stimulate collagen and elastin production, essential proteins responsible for maintaining the skin’s structure and firmness. Unlike other aesthetic treatments, polynucleotide therapies focus on deep skin regeneration, making them ideal for tackling various skin concerns.
Polynucleotide treatments are non-surgical and minimally invasive, offering an effective alternative to traditional options like dermal fillers. Whether you’re seeking to address signs of ageing or improve your skin tone, this innovative approach caters to diverse skin needs.
At Bellissima Beauty & Aesthetics, our polynucleotide treatments are extremely popular among our clientele due to the many benefits provided to skin health, including:
Improved Skin Texture: These treatments smooth uneven skin and diminish fine lines, leaving you with a refreshed youthful appearance.
Enhanced Hydration: Polynucleotides work to deeply hydrate the skin, significantly enhancing skin hydration for a plump, dewy look.
Skin Elasticity: By stimulating collagen production, polynucleotides help improve skin elasticity, combating sagging, wrinkles, and stretch marks.
Skin Regeneration: The cellular-level repair promoted by polynucleotides accelerates the skin’s natural healing process, boosting skin regeneration.
Support for Sensitive Skin: Gentle yet effective, this treatment is suitable for individuals with sensitive skin, reducing redness and irritation.

Polynucleotides are injected into the dermal layers of the skin using advanced microinjection techniques. Once introduced, they stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture and elasticity. Over time, this process leads to visible enhancements in skin tone, hydration, and resilience.
The treatment works in synergy with the skin’s natural repair mechanisms, making it a holistic solution for skin rejuvenation. Unlike treatments that provide only temporary fixes, polynucleotides address underlying skin concerns for long-term results.
When you choose Bellissima Beauty & Aesthetics for your polynucleotide treatment, you’re choosing a team who puts you first. When you book with us, you can expect to be taken through out professional process:
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation at Bellissima Beauty & Aesthetics. During this session, our experts will assess your skin concerns and goals to create a personalised treatment plan for you. We’ll also discuss how polynucleotides differ from other options like skin boosters or dermal fillers to ensure this treatment aligns with your desired outcomes.
During the treatment, polynucleotides are carefully administered through microinjections. The procedure is quick, typically taking 20 minutes, and is designed to be as comfortable as possible. A topical numbing cream may be applied to minimise any discomfort, though this isn’t a particularly painful treatment for many people.
The downtime for polynucleotides isn’t as intense as some other treatments, meaning post-treatment, you may experience mild redness or swelling and small blebs under the skin, that usually subside within a few hours. Results become increasingly noticeable over the following weeks as your skin begins to regenerate, leading to improved skin texture, elasticity, and hydration.
While other beauty treatments are all valuable and important for maintaining healthy skin, polynucleotides offer unique benefits compared to other treatments. For example:
Hyaluronic Acid-Based Treatments: While hyaluronic acid is excellent for immediate hydration, polynucleotides provide deeper and longer-lasting skin regeneration.
Skin Boosters: Polynucleotides go beyond hydration to stimulate cellular repair and collagen synthesis.
Dermal Fillers: Unlike fillers that focus on volume, polynucleotides target the skin’s structural integrity, improving both skin tone and elasticity.
This makes polynucleotides an excellent standalone treatment or complementary option alongside other aesthetic treatments.
Polynucleotide treatments are formulated with natural DNA fragments derived from salmon, which are highly biocompatible with human skin. These fragments are rich in nucleotides, the building blocks of DNA and RNA, which play a crucial role in cellular repair and regeneration. This composition makes polynucleotides safe and highly effective for improving overall skin health.
The key components of polynucleotides treatment are:
The natural, biocompatible nature of these components means polynucleotide treatments are suitable for all skin types, including those with heightened sensitivity. This unique combination allows the treatment to target multiple skin concerns simultaneously, from hydration and elasticity to overall skin tone and texture.
Polynucleotide treatments at Bellissima Beauty & Aesthetics are a game-changer for those seeking youthful, healthy skin. Whether you want to improve skin texture or embrace a preventative approach to ageing, this treatment offers a versatile solution.

Choosing a treatment is much easier when you understand what it is designed to do. At Bellissima Beauty & Aesthetics, we want you to feel comfortable asking questions, whether you’re considering polynucleotide injections for the first time or wondering how they might fit into your existing skin care plan.
Here, we take a closer look at the science, how to look after the treated area and what to expect as results develop.
When we talk about skin quality, we mean features such as hydration, texture and elasticity. Improving overall skin quality involves looking at these together, rather than focusing on a single line or patch of dryness.
Polynucleotides attract water and may support the activity of fibroblasts: the cells responsible for producing collagen and other components that give skin its support. Research into fibroblast activity and collagen stimulation helps explain why these injectable treatments are being explored for gradual improvements in tissue quality. Laboratory findings, however, cannot tell us exactly how much improvement an individual client will see.
The aim may be smoother texture, better hydration or firmer skin, depending on your starting point. We’ll discuss what you mean by more radiant skin or a refreshed appearance, so your treatment goals are specific to you.
Polynucleotides are long chains of smaller building blocks called nucleotides, linked by phosphodiester bonds. Each nucleotide contains a sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base. DNA and RNA are both examples of polynucleotides.
DNA usually forms a double-stranded helix and contains deoxyribose sugar. RNA is generally single-stranded, contains ribose and uses uracil where DNA uses thymine. These structural differences affect how the molecules behave. Within our cells, messenger RNA carries instructions copied from DNA for protein production.
The purified DNA fragments used in aesthetic medicine are different from the complete genetic instructions inside living cells. These injections are not gene therapy and do not rewrite your DNA.
You may see polynucleotides described as regenerative treatments, with references to cellular regeneration, skin repair and the skin’s ability to retain moisture. Research explores their interaction with the skin’s repair environment and natural production of supporting tissue. That does not mean treatment can reverse every type of cellular damage.
Regenerative medicine includes research into tissue repair and wound healing, but a cosmetic appointment is not treatment for an open wound or an undiagnosed skin condition.
For your Bellissima appointment, the focus is on whether polynucleotides could help improve skin quality in the area you want assessed. Goals might include improving fine texture or addressing early signs of reduced elasticity. More resilient skin or a radiant glow should be discussed as possible outcomes, rather than promises.
An anti ageing treatment also needs to match the concern. Polynucleotides are not intended to reshape your facial structure in the way traditional dermal fillers can be used to restore volume or define contours. Significant skin laxity may need a different approach. We’ll explain those distinctions before recommending a plan.
Please tell us about your medical history, medicines, allergies and previous treatments, including laser treatments. Mention any active skin conditions or changes in the treatment area. Patient safety depends on understanding these details before proceeding.
If your skin is sore or inflamed, let us assess it first. Treatment should not be booked simply to calm inflammation without understanding its cause. Our priority is choosing an appropriate next step for your skin.
We’ll explain aftercare for your treatment and the product used. General advice includes:
Contact us promptly if symptoms worsen or you notice unexpected pain, redness or swelling. Seek urgent medical help for breathing difficulties or sudden visual changes.
Small raised bumps, mild swelling, tenderness or bruising can occur after injections. Give yourself time for these to settle, especially before an important event. Early swelling is not the final result, and recovery varies between people and treatment areas.
Polynucleotides may be considered for fine lines and changes in skin quality around the under eye area. A small observational study reported improvements in the appearance of under-eye wrinkles, although further controlled research is needed.
Dark circles can have different causes, including pigmentation, visible vessels or shadows from hollowness. Thinning skin may be part of the picture, but treatment will not address every cause. We’ll assess the area and explain what may realistically improve.
Changes develop gradually, rather than immediately after your appointment. You may notice early improvements over the first few weeks, with further changes developing during a course.
In one study of 42 people receiving under-eye treatment, the greatest reported improvements were recorded at around three months following two sessions. That is a finding from a particular study, not a guaranteed timetable for your skin.
A course of three appointments is used in some treatment protocols, with treatments spaced approximately two to four weeks apart. Other protocols use a different number or interval, depending on the product and treatment area.
At Bellissima, we’ll discuss the proposed course during your consultation. Your plan should reflect your skin, the concern being addressed and how you respond.
Results can persist for several months, but there is no single duration that applies to everyone. One under-eye study recorded improvements at six months, with some reduction from the three-month assessment.
The product is gradually absorbed, and any improvement needs to be reviewed over time. We’ll discuss maintenance according to your response, rather than promise a fixed period of anti ageing results.
Tell us about fish allergies before booking, as many injectable polynucleotide products contain purified fish-derived DNA. The exact formulation and manufacturer’s restrictions must be checked; purification does not justify assuming there is no risk of allergic reactions.
Treatment should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding because safety evidence is insufficient.
If you’re unsure whether polynucleotides are suitable, contact our Byfleet team. We’ll help you understand the options before you decide.
