PolyPhil Face: Salmon DNA for Your Face
Drier, duller, or less firm skin doesn’t always call for added volume. Sometimes, your main goal is simply to improve the quality of your skin. PolyPhil Face is designed for that purpose and uses polynucleotides, also known as salmon DNA. In this blog, you’ll learn what PolyPhil Face does for your facial skin, how the treatment works, and what you can expect from it.
First, just this
What exactly is salmon DNA?
The name ” Salmon DNA ” might sound a bit unusual. PolyPhil is all about polynucleotides: small DNA fragments used to support natural processes in the skin.
This treatment is therefore fundamentally different from a filler. It does not aim, for example, to plump up your cheekbones or alter your facial contours. The focus is on improving the skin from the inside out.

Skin Quality
What does PolyPhil Face do for your skin?
PolyPhil Face is used when the skin could use a little extra support. Think of skin that feels less firm, has become a bit drier, or is starting to lose its fresh appearance.
The treatment focuses, among other things, on:
- Supporting collagen production;
- Skin hydration;
- Improvement of skin texture;
- Greater strength and elasticity;
- Reducing the appearance of fine lines;
- A fresher-looking complexion.
So the goal isn’t for your face to look different after the treatment. You work directly on the skin. That makes PolyPhil an attractive option if you’re looking to improve your skin without adding extra volume.
Face
Which areas can you treat with PolyPhil Face?
PolyPhil Face is designed to improve the skin on your face. Which areas are treated depends on your skin and the specific areas you’d like to improve.
The skin around the eyes, for example, requires a different approach. For this, Aepril Clinics offers PolyPhil Salmon DNA Eyes . For hair and the scalp, there is PolyPhil Salmon DNA Hair.
This allows the treatment to be tailored to the specific area rather than using the same approach everywhere.
Treatment
What does a PolyPhil Face treatment involve?
Before the treatment, we’ll examine your skin and discuss the areas where you’d like to see improvement. Based on that, we’ll determine whether PolyPhil Face is right for you. During the treatment, the polynucleotides are administered into the skin via small injections. The product is then given time to take effect in the skin.
The results, therefore, do not appear overnight. This is also in line with the goal of the treatment: not an immediate change in volume, but a gradual improvement in skin quality.
Good to know: Do you see small puncture marks or bumps right after the treatment? This can happen with injectable skin treatments and is different from the final result.
Compare
PolyPhil Face or Profhilo: What’s the Difference?
Both treatments are designed to improve the skin, so it makes sense that PolyPhil and Profhilo are often compared. However, they do not work the same way:
| PolyPhil Face | Profhilo | |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | Polynucleotides | Hyaluronic Acid |
| Focus | Supporting skin health and skin renewal | Hydration and Skin Quality |
| Add volume | No | No |
| Used for | Facial Skin | Face and Other Treatment Areas |
Which of the two is better for you depends mainly on what your skin needs. Moreover, it doesn’t always have to be a choice between one or the other. In some treatment plans, different skin-improving treatments can complement each other.
Result
When will you see results from PolyPhil Face?
Because PolyPhil Face targets processes within the skin, the results develop gradually. So don’t expect an immediate change like you would with a filler.
The improvement is actually seen in areas such as skin texture, hydration, firmness, and radiance. How noticeable these changes are varies from person to person and also depends on your initial skin condition and treatment plan.
That is a key difference from treatments that add volume immediately: with PolyPhil, the result is meant to be subtle.
Subtle and long-lasting results
How long does the effect last?
The effects of PolyPhil Face are not permanent. According to the current information from Aepril Clinics, the effects last an average of 6 to 12 months.
How your skin reacts and when a follow-up treatment is recommended can vary from person to person. That’s why we prefer to assess your skin rather than automatically stick to a single, fixed date on the calendar.
