Please arrive with clean, makeup-free skin if possible. Avoid alcohol and caffeine for at least 24 hours pre-treatment to minimise the risk of bruising. If safe for you, avoid NSAIDs (ibuprofen/aspirin) 24 hours before to reduce bruising.
Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness and possible bruising. Full risks/contraindications are discussed at consultation for each treatment.

Skin boosters are a softer, less dense formula designed to deeply hydrate the skin and add volume all over. Dermal fillers are injected deeper into the skin to sculpt the face, add more concentrated volume in certain areas and to fill deeper lines.
Polynucleotide treatments use nucleotides to facilitate cellular repair and renewal while skin boosters are primarily composed of hyaluronic acid. Polynucleotides offer a regenerative approach, inducing long-term skin improvements and structural healing from within. Meanwhile, skin boosters provide immediate hydration and enhance skin texture for a natural glow.
Polynucleotides and skin boosters work well together and can both be used for optimal skin revitalisation.
