Polynucleotide treatments are often chosen by patients who want to improve skin quality rather than change facial shape. They’re used when skin feels thinner, less resilient or slower to recover, and when the goal is healthier, stronger skin over time.
At Dene Hollow Dental, polynucleotide treatment begins with a conversation about your skin. We look at what’s changed, what concerns you, and what kind of improvement would feel right, before talking through how the treatment works and whether it’s suitable for you.
Polynucleotides are treatments designed to support the skin at a cellular level. They work by encouraging the skin to repair, renew and strengthen itself from within.
Often described as providing “nutrients” for skin cells, polynucleotides help stimulate the production of collagen and elastin and support the skin’s underlying framework. This framework is responsible for firmness, elasticity and overall skin strength.

Dermal fillers restore volume and contour. Polynucleotides focus on skin repair, hydration and regeneration at a cellular level.
Results vary, but benefits typically build over time and can last several months. A course of treatment may be recommended.
When carried out by a qualified clinician following a full consultation, polynucleotide treatments are widely used and considered safe.
