At Derma Plus Medical Sheffield, polynucleotide treatments work by stimulating the skin's natural repair and regeneration processes. Using highly purified DNA fragments, they activate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin, helping to improve skin firmness, elasticity and hydration.

Unlike treatments that temporarily improve the skin's appearance, polynucleotides in Sheffield work at a cellular level to encourage long-term skin health and regeneration. This makes them an excellent option for patients looking for natural-looking rejuvenation and healthier, more resilient skin over time.

At our Sheffield clinic, we typically recommend an initial course of two to three polynucleotide treatments, spaced approximately four weeks apart, to achieve optimal results.

Because polynucleotides work by stimulating your body's own regenerative processes, improvements develop gradually, with skin quality, hydration and firmness continuing to improve between treatments. To maintain your results, we generally recommend a maintenance treatment every six to nine months.

During your consultation at Derma Plus Medical Sheffield, we will create a personalised treatment plan based on your skin concerns and long-term goals.

Before attending your appointment at our Sheffield clinic, we recommend arriving with little or no make-up on the treatment area. Alcohol should be avoided for 24 hours before and after treatment, and certain medications or supplements that may increase bruising should be avoided where medically appropriate.

You should also avoid active skincare products, including retinols, tretinoin and glycolic acid, for several days before treatment and let our team know if you have any illness, skin infection or upcoming procedures planned.

Ahead of your appointment, the team at Derma Plus Medical Sheffield will provide comprehensive pre-treatment advice to ensure you feel informed, prepared and comfortable.

Following polynucleotide treatment in Sheffield, it is completely normal to experience some redness, tenderness or mild swelling around the injection sites. Some patients may also develop minor bruising over the following few days.

At our Sheffield clinic, we recommend avoiding make-up for at least 12 hours after treatment and limiting excessive heat, sun exposure and vigorous exercise for the first 48 hours.

Because polynucleotides stimulate collagen production and cellular regeneration, results develop progressively. Many patients notice improvements in hydration and skin quality first, with skin firmness and texture continuing to improve over the following weeks and months.

At Derma Plus Medical Sheffield, we take a medically led and personalised approach to regenerative aesthetics. Every patient receives a comprehensive consultation, allowing us to assess your concerns and recommend a treatment plan tailored specifically to your skin.

Whether you're looking to improve under-eye concerns, restore skin elasticity or enhance overall skin quality, our Sheffield team focuses on achieving natural-looking results that continue to improve over time.

Choosing polynucleotides in Sheffield at Derma Plus Medical means choosing evidence-based treatments, personalised care and a clinic dedicated to long-term skin health and regeneration.
