Regenerative injectable treatment that works on skin quality — hydration, elasticity and firmness — rather than adding volume.
What the price includes
- A full-face assessment, not just a look at the area you asked about.
- The treatment itself and the product used — traceable, and the batch recorded against your notes.
- Written aftercare before you leave, and a direct number to reach me on if something concerns you.
- A review at two weeks, where we look at the result together and adjust if it needs it.
- Any adjustment made at that review, where it is a refinement of the treatment you had.
A consultation is £30, and that comes off the cost of your treatment if you go ahead — so if you book, the consultation effectively costs nothing.
Why it says “from”
Because the amount of product needed genuinely varies between people, and quoting a single figure for everyone would mean either overcharging most of them or revising the price on the day. You are given an exact figure at consultation, before anything is booked.
On cheaper quotes
You will find this treatment cheaper elsewhere in Lancashire, and it is worth understanding what usually differs. Genuine, traceable product costs what it costs. So does medical indemnity that actually covers the treatment, single-use equipment, holding hyaluronidase on site, and being registered with a professional body that can hold you to account.
| What varies | At the lower end | Here |
|---|---|---|
| Product | Unbranded, parallel-imported or not traceable to a batch | Traceable, batch recorded against your notes |
| Who treats you | Sometimes a non-medic, sometimes supervised remotely | A registered nurse, NMC PIN published |
| Indemnity | Often generic cover that may exclude the specific treatment | £5m medical malpractice, underwriter and policy number published |
| Complication cover | Frequently no hyaluronidase held on site | Held on site, with training to recognise and manage occlusion |
| Review | Rarely included, sometimes charged | Two-week review included |
| Prescribing | Remote sign-off from a prescriber who never meets you | A prescriber attends in person and assesses you face to face |
I am not going to tell you that expensive means good — it does not, and there are excellent practitioners charging less than this. But a price well below the local market means something in that table has been cut, and asking which is a fair question to put to any clinic, including this one.
Common questions
- How much does polynucleotides cost at Charis Aesthetics?
- From £195. The exact figure depends on how much product is needed for your assessment, and you are given it before anything is booked — never a surprise on the day. A consultation is £30 deposit, redeemed against your treatment.
- Is the consultation included?
- A consultation is £30, and it comes off the cost of your treatment if you decide to go ahead. If you choose not to proceed, the £30 covers the assessment time.
- Why is it cheaper elsewhere?
- Genuine product, proper indemnity, single-use equipment, hyaluronidase held on site and a practitioner registered with a professional body all cost money. Prices well below the local market usually mean one of those has been cut, and it is worth asking which.
- Can I spread the cost?
- Payment plans are available on many treatments. Ask at consultation and we will go through the options.
- Are polynucleotides worth it?
- It is worth it if you want better skin and are prepared to wait for it. It is not worth it if you want a visible change in a fortnight, or if what actually bothers you is volume or laxity — no course of this will address either, and being sold one for that is how people conclude the whole category is a con.
