Polyneedling FAQs: Everything You Need to Know 

Polyneedling is one of the most exciting innovations in skin rejuvenation, combining microneedling with the regenerative power of polynucleotides. As more clients explore this treatment at Simply Clinics, we’ve compiled the most frequently asked questions to help you feel informed and confident before booking.

What is Polyneedling?

Polyneedling is a skin treatment that pairs microneedling with polynucleotides—DNA fragments derived from salmon sperm known for their powerful skin-repair and anti-inflammatory properties. The microneedling process creates tiny channels in the skin, allowing these polynucleotides to penetrate deeper and stimulate collagen, elastin, and cell regeneration.

What skin concerns does Polyneedling treat?

Polyneedling is suitable for a range of concerns, including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Dehydrated or dull skin

  • Uneven skin tone and texture

  • Enlarged pores

  • Acne scarring

  • Skin laxity

It’s a versatile treatment for anyone looking to rejuvenate their complexion without injectables or surgery.

Is Polyneedling safe?

Yes—Polyneedling is a safe and clinically backed treatment. At Simply Clinics, it’s performed by trained professionals using high-quality, medical-grade products under strict hygiene protocols. The polynucleotides used are bio-compatible and purified, making them well tolerated even by sensitive skin.

How long does the treatment take?

The treatment typically takes around 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You can return to most daily activities straight after.

Does it hurt?

Most clients find the treatment very tolerable. A topical numbing cream is applied before microneedling to minimize discomfort. You may feel a slight prickling sensation during the session, followed by mild redness or sensitivity afterward.

How many sessions will I need?

We usually recommend a course of 3–4 treatments, spaced about 3–4 weeks apart, for optimal results. However, you may notice brighter, healthier-looking skin after just one session.

Is there any downtime?

There’s minimal downtime. You may experience some redness, tightness, or slight peeling for 1–2 days post-treatment. These effects are normal and typically subside quickly.

When will I see results?

You may begin to see visible improvements within a week, with more noticeable results developing over the following 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases. Your skin will continue to improve with each session.

Can I combine Polyneedling with other treatments?

Yes! Polyneedling pairs well with treatments like LED light therapy, hydrafacials, or chemical peels (with the right timing). Speak with your therapist to build a custom plan that works for your skin goals.
