Polynucleotides for Eyes: The Hottest Treatment of 2026
If you've been looking for a solution for tired, crepey or hollow-looking eyes and you're not sure tear trough filler is quite right for you - we need to talk about Polynucleotides.
This treatment has quietly become one of the most requested at Elegance over the past year, and it's easy to understand why.
What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides (also known as PDRN) are a regenerative injectable treatment derived from purified salmon DNA - yes, really, and no, you won't smell of the sea. They work by stimulating your skin's own repair and regeneration processes at a cellular level, improving skin quality, elasticity and hydration from within.
Unlike fillers, which add volume to a specific area, Polynucleotides improve the actual quality and health of the skin. The results develop gradually and look entirely natural - because they are natural. Your own skin doing what it does best, just with a little encouragement.
Why Are They So Good for the Eye Area?
The skin around the eyes is some of the thinnest and most delicate on the face. It shows dehydration, tiredness and the signs of ageing faster than almost anywhere else - and it needs a very gentle, precise approach.
Polynucleotides are ideal for this area because they work with the skin rather than adding volume to it. They improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and crepiness, brighten the under-eye area and restore a more rested, refreshed appearance - all without the risk of swelling or puffiness that can sometimes occur with traditional tear trough filler.
For clients who want to look genuinely refreshed rather than filled, it's often the perfect solution.
Who Is It Suitable For?
Polynucleotides are suitable for most adults concerned about the quality and appearance of the skin around their eyes. They work particularly well for fine lines and crepiness, dark circles caused by skin thinning, a generally tired or dull appearance around the eyes, and as a complement to other aesthetic treatments.
A consultation with our team will confirm whether they're the right option for your specific concerns.
What to Expect
A course of two to three treatments spaced around four weeks apart is typically recommended for the best results, with a maintenance appointment every six to twelve months thereafter. Results develop progressively - this is a treatment that rewards patience and consistency.
The under-eye area can experience mild swelling or bruising after treatment, which is completely normal and settles quickly.
