Salmon sperm facials, known more formally within the industry as Polynucleotide Treatments, combine natural bio-revitalising components with targeted injectables, granting clients a refreshed look which is both natural and long-lasting.
Now, we can’t argue with the fact that the colloquial name for this treatment is helping it to go viral. Widely called the ‘salmon sperm facial’, this is a treatment option that clients are curious to learn more about – exploring both the overall and more targeted benefits of treatment.
Because, believe it or not, salmon sperm really does boast a range of benefits for humans. Here are three things you probably didn’t know about the treatment and its uses.
1. It’s the DNA That Promotes Benefits in Human Skin
It’s actually the fragments of DNA that are found in these injectables that unlock the benefits for clients seeking rejuvenated and more youthful skin.
The purified DNA fragments extracted from the salmon sperm are called polydeoxyribonucleotides (PDRNs). These PDRNs are believed to have healing and regenerative properties, as well as a natural anti-inflammatory base – all of which contribute towards the aesthetic benefits heralded by clients.
2. The Salmon Sperm Undergoes a Range of Pre-Injectable Treatments
No, this treatment does not inject salmon sperm directly into your skin as soon as it is extracted from the fish.
Rather, it’s the properties in the DNA of the fish that boast the beneficial PDRNs, with specialists recognising that the high concentration of PDRNs in the testes makes sperm the highest potency product.
So, sperm is first extracted from the testes and is then purified to ensure that the PDRNs can be separated from the cellular proteins and components of the sperm itself.
3. Salmon Sperm is Used Because it Can be Tolerated by the Human Body
One of the weird and wonderful facts that we love to share with clients is that we, as humans, are closer to salmon than we might think.
PDRNs extracted from salmon sperm are especially beneficial for humans because we are able to tolerate the injection of this DNA into our own bodies. Because salmon DNA fragments and human DNA are not dissimilar in terms of their makeup and properties, humans are able to accept the injection of these DNA fragments without adverse reaction or rejection.
