Salmon DNA: The Skin Treatment That Sounds Weird But Works

I Wasn't Sure About This One...But Now I Am.

Okay, let’s talk about the treatment that made me look like a pufferfish for around 20 minutes….but….I’d do it again.

So I had Salmon DNA right after my Sculptra session (yes, all in one go). And honestly, I felt like this treatment deserved its own newsletter. It’s one of those treatments that kind of confuses people and you wonder if it’s just hype.

So what actually is Salmon DNA?

Basically, it’s a skin-rejuvenating injectable treatment that uses purified DNA from salmon sperm (it's purified and processed for medical-grade use). It’s packed with amino acids and proteins that support collagen production, hydration, and overall skin repair. It’s meant to improve elasticity, fine lines, texture, and even hyperpigmentation. Think of it like a glow-from-within reboot for your skin.

Why did I pair it with Sculptra?

While Sculptra works on gradually rebuilding volume and collagen over weeks, Salmon DNA delivers a quicker glow boost…hydrating and plumping the skin surface while the Sculptra is doing its deep tissue magic. It’s a great combo if you’re looking at the long game and want to see some visible glow and bounce in the meantime.
