When it comes to achieving healthy, radiant skin, injectable treatments are no longer just about volume. Today’s most sought-after treatments focus on skin quality, longevity, and natural rejuvenation. Two of the most popular options are skin boosters and polynucleotides—but while they’re often grouped together, they deliver results in very different ways.
Let’s break it down.
Skin Boosters: Instant Hydration, Visible Glow
Skin boosters are designed to deeply hydrate and revitalise the skin, delivering an immediate improvement in texture, smoothness, and luminosity. Most formulations are based on hyaluronic acid, a powerful moisture-binding molecule naturally found in the skin.
Why patients love skin boosters:
Deep, long-lasting hydration
Smoother texture and refined pores
A fresh, radiant “glow”
Softening of fine dehydration lines
Perfect for:
Dull or tired-looking skin
Dehydration and loss of glow
Anyone wanting a refreshed, radiant appearance
Results are visible quickly, making skin boosters ideal for those seeking instant skin revitalisation with minimal downtime.
Polynucleotides: Repair, Regenerate, Rebuild
Polynucleotides represent the next generation of skin rejuvenation. Rather than simply hydrating the skin, they work at a cellular level to repair and regenerate. Derived from highly purified DNA fragments, polynucleotides stimulate the skin’s natural healing processes.
Why polynucleotides stand out:
Boost collagen and elastin production
Improve skin strength, elasticity, and resilience
Repair damaged or ageing skin
Calm inflammation and support skin health
Perfect for:
Ageing, thinning, or fragile skin
Loss of firmness and elasticity
Acne-damaged or sensitised skin
Delicate areas such as the under-eyes
Results develop gradually, creating stronger, healthier, more youthful skin from within—with benefits that continue to improve over time.

The Key Difference
Skin boosters enhance how your skin looks
Polynucleotides improve how your skin behaves
While skin boosters deliver hydration and glow, polynucleotides focus on long-term skin regeneration and quality.
Why Choose One When You Can Combine Both?
For many patients, the most powerful results come from a tailored combination approach. Skin boosters provide instant hydration and luminosity, while polynucleotides work behind the scenes to rebuild and future-proof the skin.
Together, they create skin that doesn’t just look good—it functions better, ages better, and stays healthier for longer.

Your Skin, Personalised
Every skin journey is unique. Whether you’re looking for a quick glow-up or long-term skin regeneration, a personalised consultation will help determine the right treatment—or combination—for your goals.
Because great skin isn’t about trends.
It’s about investing in skin health.
