Thinking about having
Polynucleotide Injections?
Here is everything you need to know about having Polynucleotide injectors and how to stay safe post-treatment.
What are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are naturally occurring chains of nucleotides found in DNA and RNA that play a key role in cell function and repair.
How are they used?
In aesthetics, polynucleotides are injected into the face, neck, or body to improve skin quality by stimulating collagen, increasing hydration, and supporting tissue regeneration at a cellular level.
The benefits
They enhance skin texture, elasticity, and radiance, help repair damaged skin, and promote a more youthful, healthy appearance.
What to expect
post-polynucleotides
Following your polynucleotide treatment, it is completely normal to experience mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or small injection marks as your skin begins its natural recovery process. These effects are usually temporary and should gradually improve over the following hours to a few days.
What to expect:
- Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness.
- Small raised bumps or injection marks that typically settle within 24–72 hours.
- Skin may feel slightly tight or sensitive before gradually appearing calmer, smoother, and more hydrated as recovery progresses.

Aftercare Tips For Facial Injectables
Polynucleotides & Skin Boosters Aftercare Tips
Gently cleanse the treated area using lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free cleanser to prevent irritation and reduce the risk of infection. Avoid using exfoliants, scrubs, or alcohol-based products for at least 7 days to protect your skin’s natural healing process.
Apply AfterMED Finish regularly to hydrate, soothe, and calm post-treatment skin.
For at least 48 hours post-treatment, avoid direct sunlight, saunas, hot showers, and intense exercise. Excessive heat and UV exposure can increase inflammation and delay healing. If you need to go outside, use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen to protect your skin.
Avoid applying makeup or other cosmetic products to the treated area for at least 24 hours to allow your skin to breathe and heal without interference. This minimises the risk of clogged pores, irritation, and infection.
Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and support the body’s natural healing process. Correct hydration is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and enhancing the effects of polynucleotide and skin booster treatments.
