What it is

What is Salmon DNA (PDRN) injection?

A salmon injection places small amounts of a PDRN injectable into the skin. Its name sounds similar to Rejuran's PN, but they are different ingredients, chosen or combined according to your goal.

It is priced per session and is often chosen to support recovery after laser treatments or to keep the skin in good condition.

How it works

How it works

Cross-section of skin showing epidermis and dermis with several droplets placed in the dermal layer

PDRN in the dermis is known to support an environment in which skin cells recover. Rather than an immediate change in volume, it strengthens the skin's base, so the change is judged over several weeks and sessions.

Is it right for you

The process

How a visit works

  1. Consultation & AI skin analysis

    An AI skin analysis records where your skin is today; one of our co-directors then examines you and decides whether to treat, how strongly and where.

  2. Preparation

    After cleansing, numbing cream is applied and left to work fully.

  3. Treatment

    A fine needle distributes small amounts evenly in the dermis.

  4. After your visit

    You go home after a calming finish.

Aftercare

Recovery & aftercare

  • Small marks and redness usually settle within a day or two.
  • Bruising is occasional and fades in about a week.
  • On the day, avoid rubbing the face hard and saunas.

Sessions & spacing

Usually a few sessions two to four weeks apart, with maintenance set according to your skin.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is it the same as Rejuran?

No. Rejuran is PN and the salmon injection is PDRN — different substances. We choose according to your goals and skin.

When will I notice a difference?

Changes in skin condition appear over several weeks and are judged across sessions.

Can I have it on the same day as a laser?

It is sometimes combined to support recovery. Order and spacing are set in consultation.

How painful is it?

With numbing cream it feels like repeated small pricks.
