£250–£320 per session. A full course of 3 is £750–£960. A consultation is £45 and comes off your first treatment.

What it is

Purified DNA fragments injected in a grid just beneath the skin. They add no volume at all — they act on the fibroblasts, so what changes is skin quality: thickness, hydration, and the crepey texture under the eyes that filler cannot fix.

How it feels

Ten to twenty small injections per side, numbing cream first. Stingy rather than painful. The under-eye is the tender area and we go slowly there.

What it treats

Crepey under-eye skin, thin or dehydrated skin, early laxity, dullness.

Where it leaves you

Marks have gone. Skin quality changes slowly and reads most clearly after the third session.

Who this is not for

We would rather you read this now than hear it after paying.

This list is not exhaustive and it is not a substitute for the consultation — it is what most commonly means no, or means wait.

Everything we turn away
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • Fish allergy — the polynucleotides are salmon-derived
  • Autoimmune connective tissue disease
  • Active infection at the injection site
  • Anticoagulant medication without a note from your GP

If there is not enough time before your date

Not this time. The change shows after the third session and each one needs four clear days. A hydrating facial for the day itself, and we start the course the week after.

Whether polynucleotide skin boosters is right for you is decided in the room.

Bring your date if you have one. A consultation is £45, comes off your first treatment, and about one in six ends with us recommending nothing at all.
