What Are Salmon DNA (PDRN/PN) Injections?

Often called PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) or PN (polynucleotide) therapy, these injectables are bioactive skin boosters derived from purified DNA fragments. They’re used to hydrate, soothe micro-inflammation, and stimulate dermal remodeling, helping the skin look smoother, bouncier, and more radiant over a series of sessions.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

  • Early fine lines, dehydrated or dull skin
  • Loss of elasticity or “crepey” texture (cheeks, under-eyes, neck)
  • Post-acne textural concerns (mild)
  • Patients seeking a natural-looking refresh with minimal downtime

Not suitable with active skin infections, poorly controlled dermatitis, pregnancy, or known ingredient allergies. A medical evaluation is required.

Treatment Areas

  • Face (full face or targeted zones like under-eye, cheeks)
  • Neck and décolletage
  • Hands and other photo-exposed areas
