What does a polynucleotide treatment involve?
In a polynucleotide treatment, natural DNA building blocks are introduced into the skin, activating natural healing processes. They stimulate cell growth, improve skin elasticity, and initiate the production of collagen and elastin. The treatment is performed via targeted injections by a doctor or in combination with microneedling by a skin therapist.
Safety: Polynucleotides
A polynucleotide treatment is a safe and effective treatment when performed by experienced doctors and skin therapists. The polynucleotides we use at The Body Clinic come from freshwater fish and are released for use after thorough quality checks.
Important to know: polynucleotides are not suitable for people with a fish allergy. If you have a known allergy or are unsure about this, always discuss it during the consultation.
Pre- and post-care
Free consultation
Before undergoing a filler treatment with polynucleotides, we offer a free consultation with a doctor. During the consultation, we discuss your wishes and expectations. If you choose a polynucleotide treatment, you can often be treated immediately or easily schedule a new appointment.

At The Body Clinic, we use polynucleotides derived from freshwater fish. In a laboratory, the polynucleotides are carefully extracted from the cells and undergo strict quality controls before being released for use.
Polynucleotides are long chains of nucleotides, the natural building blocks of our genetic material. When applied to the skin, they stimulate cell regeneration and the production of collagen and elastin. This results in firmer, smoother skin with a healthy glow.
For optimal and long-lasting results, we recommend repeating the treatment two to three times a year, depending on your skin condition and personal preferences. During the consultation, we will together create a treatment plan that suits you.

For younger skin, we recommend microneedling with polynucleotides. Microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production, while polynucleotides promote cell regeneration. This combination results in vital skin with a beautiful, healthy glow — ideal for keeping your skin in top condition.
The 'salmon sperm' Kim Kardashian was referring to are most likely polynucleotides. These are extracted from freshwater fish and aid in the recovery and renewal of skin cells.
