Plinest® is not designed to reshape features or add volume in the way dermal fillers do. It is used to support skin quality and tissue repair. If your main goal is contouring or structural change, your practitioner may discuss different options.

Most people describe the sensation as mild to moderate, depending on the area and injection technique. Topical numbing is commonly used, and some areas (such as under the eyes or scalp) can feel more sensitive. Your comfort plan should be discussed before treatment starts.

Polynucleotides are natural, highly purified DNA molecules usually extracted from trout fish gonads

Cells have DNA, which is made of polynucleotides. When we inject more polynucleotides into aged and damaged skin cells, they help to regenerate tissue by stimulating fibroblasts – a type of cell that contributes to the formation of connective tissue. Essentially, we are healing skin from within.

Polynucleotides are injected into aged and damaged skin via specific techniques, depending on the product used. You can find out more about the protocols on our training course.

You may still be suitable, but bruising risk can be higher. Do not stop prescribed medication without medical advice. Tell your practitioner what you take, including over-the-counter products and supplements, so they can advise safely.

If you get recurrent cold sores, injections around the mouth area can sometimes trigger a flare-up. Your practitioner may recommend an antiviral plan before treatment, depending on your history. This is a common discussion point in aesthetics and should be handled on a case-by-case basis.

For most people, visible injection marks, swelling, or bruising settle within a few days, but timing can vary. If you want a buffer, many clinics suggest allowing at least 1–2 weeks before an important event, especially for under-eye treatments or if you bruise easily. Your practitioner can advise based on the planned technique and area.

Many people fly without issues, but travel can increase swelling in some individuals, particularly after facial injections. If you are flying within 24–48 hours, ask your clinic for area-specific guidance. It can be sensible to schedule treatment away from long-haul travel if you are prone to puffiness.

It may be suitable, but sensitive or reactive skin needs careful assessment. Inflammation triggers, current skincare, and any prescription treatments all matter. A cautious plan, including injection depth and spacing of treatments, is often more appropriate than a one-size approach.

Often yes, but many practitioners advise pausing stronger actives for a short period to reduce irritation, especially if the skin is already sensitised. This varies with the area treated and your baseline skin tolerance. Ask for a clear, written plan covering what to stop and when to restart.

Polynucleotide treatments are generally used across a range of skin types and tones. The main consideration is not skin colour, but factors like sensitivity, tendency to bruise, and risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation if the skin becomes irritated. A practitioner experienced with your skin type should tailor technique and aftercare advice.

It depends on whether the condition is active in the treatment area and how well it is controlled. Injecting into inflamed or broken skin is usually avoided. Your practitioner may ask for a period of stability before treatment, and in some cases will recommend medical clearance first.

Polynucleotide injectables are not “reversed” in the same way as hyaluronic acid fillers (which can sometimes be dissolved). If you are unsure, discuss this upfront so your practitioner can clarify what is realistic and whether a different approach would better match your comfort level.

Ask the clinic to confirm the exact product name and supplier, and whether they source through the official UK distribution channel. You can also ask to see the packaging and batch details on the day. A reputable clinic should be comfortable answering these questions clearly.
