For the past few weeks I’ve been sharing a lot about polynucleotides. The biology, the evidence, who it suits, what it won’t do.
Today I want to tell you what comes next.
Polynucleotide treatment is now available at Moorland Aesthetics.
I’ve approached adding this the same way I approach everything here: slowly, with the evidence in front of me, and with a clear sense of who I think it’s right for. Patients who want genuine improvement in skin quality over time. Not volume or a before-and-after result. Something more gradual and more real than that.
If you’ve been following along and thinking it might suit you, the process is straightforward. A consultation first, a proper clinical conversation about your history, your skin, and what’s realistic. Then, if it’s appropriate, a course of three sessions. No same-day booking pressure. No obligation to proceed.
Consultations are £50 and fully redeemable against treatment.
If you’re not ready yet that’s fine. The content I’ve shared isn’t going anywhere. And there’s no rush.

There’s a reason I always come back to the moor.
Walking isn’t just good for the soul, it’s good for your skin too. Improved circulation, reduced cortisol, better sleep, fresh air. The kind of things no serum can fully replicate.
Wellbeing and aesthetics aren’t separate. How you feel, move, and rest shows up in your face. It’s why I talk about lifestyle as part of every consultation.
This walk was guided by George at Moorland Ramblings, a local walking guide based right here on Dartmoor (who also happens to be my husband) Whether you’re a confident navigator or just starting to explore the moor, he offers guided walks, navigation training, and courses for all levels. Genuinely brilliant if you want to get out here safely and make the most of it.

Because the best investment in how you look starts with how you live.

For the past few weeks I’ve been sharing a lot about polynucleotides. Today I want to tell you what comes next.
Polynucleotide treatment is now available at Moorland Aesthetics.
I didn’t add this quickly. I read the evidence, sat with it, and made sure I could have an honest conversation about what it will and won’t do before I offered it to anyone. That’s the same process I apply to everything here.
It’s for patients who want gradual, real improvement in skin quality. it won’t add volume or give a dramatic result., it’s more considered than that.
If you’ve been following along and you’re curious the link to book a consultation is in my bio. Come with questions, that’s what the appointment is for.
And if you’re not ready yet there’s no rush. The content isn’t going anywhere.

The best thing most people can do before considering injectables is sort their skincare out first.
Injectables work better, last longer, and produce cleaner results on skin that’s well-maintained. The foundation matters. There are three key things to good skincare, that I recommend to almost all of my patients:
SPF. Every single day, regardless of weather or season. It is the single most evidence-based anti-ageing intervention available without a prescription. Nothing else comes close. If you’re not wearing it daily, start there before anything else. And don’t forget to reapply regularly when you’re out in the sun.
Retinoids. Vitamin A derivatives, the most studied active ingredient in skincare. They increase cell turnover, stimulate collagen production, and improve skin texture over time. Start with a low concentration, use it two or three nights a week, and build up slowly. They take months to work, not weeks.
Hydration. Not moisturiser for the sake of it but to improve barrier function. A healthy skin barrier holds water in, keeps irritants out, and makes everything else you apply work better. If your skin is reactive, sensitised, or perpetually dry, address this before anything else.
Using three things, consistently, over months, will do more for your skin than a single injectable treatment on a poor foundation.
When skincare isn’t enough, particularly when there’s volume loss, structural change, or quality concerns that topicals can’t address, that’s when a conversation about injectables makes sense.

If you’re confused about where to start with skincare book for a skin consultation and we can make you a personalised plan.

Four signs that a clinic is thinking about your outcome rather than their next booking. Swipe through.
These aren’t about finding a perfect practitioner. They’re about the baseline of what good looks like and what you’re entitled to expect before anyone injects anything.

A good clinician suggests less than you asked for when they don’t think you need it. Not because the treatment isn’t available, not because they can’t do it, but because their clinical assessment says it isn’t warranted. That restraint is a skill but it’s also a choice that costs them revenue.
A good clinician declines to treat when the time isn’t right. If you have unrealistic expectations, or consultation that raises clinical flags then these are reasons to pause, not to proceed anyway because you’ve already paid a deposit.
A good clinician always reviews what’s already there before they add anything new. Aesthetic results emerge over weeks to months. Layering more treatment before the first round has settled isn’t thoroughness, it’s a different kind of problem.
And a good clinician tells you honestly when treatment can’t fix what you’re concerned about. Sometimes the answer is skincare, or time, or a different kind of support. That conversation is the hardest one to have when there’s a booking waiting.
None of these require you to trust a practitioner blindly. They require you to ask the right questions, notice what the answers tell you and make an informed decision about what’s right for you.

Save this. Share it with someone who’s thinking about having treatment for the first time.

Dermal filler is one of the most misunderstood treatments in aesthetics. I think it needs a bit more explaining.
Filler is a hyaluronic acid based gel injected into specific layers of tissue. Depending on the area and technique, it can add volume, restore structure, or improve contour. It doesn’t work the same way in every area, on every face, or with every technique.

What it is: Hyaluronic acid is produced naturally by your body, and it’s gradually broken down too. It is dissolvable with an enzyme called hyaluronidase, although that process isn’t always as simple as can be suggested.
Where it goes: This varies completely by indication. Lips, cheeks, jawline, tear troughs, temples — each area has different tissue planes, different risks, and requires different product viscosity and injection depth. It is not one treatment, it’s many.
How long it lasts: The clinical effect can be visible for anywhere between 6 and 18 months depending on the area, product and volume used and patient lifestyle factors. Research shows product can still remain in the tissues long after the visible effect has gone.

I’m not going to tell you that filler is dangerous or that you shouldn’t have it. When it’s right for you, placed correctly, by someone who understands the anatomy, it can one of the most effective tools in aesthetics. I love the subtle and beautiful results we can get with carefully placed filler.

There is no legal requirement in the UK for an aesthetics practitioner to have any medical training.
That’s not a criticism of anyone but it is information that patients should have before they make a decision.
Here’s what a medical background actually changes in practice:
-GMC registration means accountability to a regulatory body with real consequences. It means a consistent ethical framework and continuing professional development that’s audited.
-Prescribing authority means I can prescribe: no off-site sign-off, no delays, and full clinical accountability sitting with the person treating you.
-On-site complication management means that if something goes wrong, I don’t send you elsewhere. I have the right kit, the right training, and the right clinical judgement to treat complications in practice.

None of this makes doctor-led aesthetics automatically better, but it does mean a different starting point which I think anyone considering aesthetic treatments needs to be aware of.

Five questions worth asking before any aesthetics appointment, whoever you’re seeing.
I wrote these because I think patients deserve better information than they typically get before treatment. Not because aesthetics is dangerous but because good outcomes depend on good conversations, and those conversations don’t happen unless someone asks.
01. What are your qualifications and medical background? There is no legal requirement in the UK for a practitioner to hold any training.
02. What happens if something goes wrong? A good practitioner has a clear answer to this before you ask.
03. Is this treatment right for my specific concern? The right treatment isn’t always the one you came in for. A thorough clinician will sometimes suggest less, or something different, or nothing at all.
04. What does the consent process involve? Signing a form on arrival is not consent. Understanding what you’re agreeing to and being given time to think about it is.
05. What are the realistic outcomes, and what are the limits? If a practitioner can’t tell you what a treatment won’t do, they’re not giving you the full picture.

Save this before your next appointment. Share it with someone who’s considering treatment for the first time.

There’s a lot of noise around polynucleotides right now. So here’s what the research actually shows.
There is a strong evidence base to support their use for skin quality and laxity, periorbital rejuvenation, and acne scarring as part of a combination approach. These are the indications I’m happy to discuss clinically.
Emerging evidence covers the neck, décolletage, and hair thinning. This is early data and it is promising but I’d call it honest interest rather than conviction.
The evidence really doesn’t support: single-session results, immediate visible change, or outcomes that compare to surgical intervention. If a clinic is promising any of those, ask them to show you the data.

I use this framework every time I consider adding a treatment to my practice. If I can’t defend it clinically, confidently understand and explain the evidence base, the. I won’t be using it.

Based on published RCT and histological data, 2018–2024.
