Salmon Facial

Salmon Facial

A salmon facial is a skincare treatment that uses Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN), also known as polynucleotide (PD), a DNA component extracted from salmon sperm. Despite the name, the treatment does not involve actual salmon sperm like most think, but rather a refined ingredient derived from it. The PDRN is injected into the face during the treatment to stimulate collagen production and cell renewal. The facial offers a natural and effective solution for addressing various skin concerns, promoting a youthful and radiant complexion with its remarkable regenerative properties.


This treatment originated in South Korea and has grown in popularity due to many A-list celebrities, including Jennifer Aniston and Kim Kardashian, because the benefits include reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving hydration and elasticity, and it can even be used to target specific concerns like acne scarring and rosacea.


​​​​​​​​​​​​​​What to expect:

  • Time to allow: 60 minutes

  • ​​​​​​​Before: If you are prone to cold sores, you may want to take medication prior. Avoid blood thinners 3 days prior.

  • During: Topical anesthetic will be applied for 30 minutes prior to your treatment. You will feel a light prickle sensation on bony areas, a completely tolerable sensation.

  • After: The treated area will have a glow and may be pink, which subsides fairly quickly. Your skin will be slightly tender to the touch for 24 hours. Wait 6 hours before washing your face. Avoid makeup, exfoliants, and AHA’s/BHA’s for 24 hours. Then, you may resume your regular skin regimen.

  • Follow-up: Typically, a series of 3-4 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart is recommended at first. Maintenance treatments every six months are suggested to sustain the results.

FAQ

What are Polynucleotides (PDRN) & what do they treat?

Polynucleotides are essential components that form the backbone of DNA and RNA. They play a crucial role in storing and transmitting genetic information in living organisms. Beyond their fundamental genetic functions, polynucleotides also offer significant benefits in skincare and medical treatments. Derived from salmon DNA, polynucleotides are known for their regenerative and hydrating properties. In skincare, they promote tissue repair, boost skin hydration, and stimulate collagen production, improving skin elasticity and a more youthful appearance. Polynucleotides are utilized in injectable treatments to address skin concerns such as wrinkles, scars, and pore size while enhancing skin hydration and elasticity.
