It might sound unconventional—but salmon (or trout) DNA is the secret ingredient powering some of today’s most advanced skin rejuvenation treatments. From facials to injectables, this bioactive compound is making waves across the skincare world, and Injectual’s clients in London are already seeing the glow-up.
So, what’s the deal with salmon sperm in skincare? And more importantly—does it actually work? Let’s break it down.
Where Does Salmon DNA Come From?
Salmon DNA, also referred to as polynucleotides, is extracted from the sperm cells of salmon—specifically chosen because their DNA is biologically compatible with human cells. Once purified, these DNA fragments are used in serums, injectables, and regenerative facials.
Sounds a little sci-fi, right? But the science is solid: polynucleotides promote cell regeneration, reduce inflammation, and stimulate collagen production—all critical for younger, healthier-looking skin.
Why Is Salmon DNA Trending in Skincare Right Now?
It started in Korea, where the beauty industry is known for blending science with skin rituals. From there, the treatment made its way to aesthetic clinics in London and across Europe—quickly becoming a go-to for hydration, anti-ageing, and post-procedure recovery.
Unlike traditional treatments like Botox or filler, salmon DNA doesn’t freeze or fill—it heals and strengthens the skin from within. That’s why it’s now used in:
-
Salmon sperm facials
-
Under-eye rejuvenation
-
Microneedling cocktails
-
Hair restoration treatments
-
Post-laser skin recovery
The Benefits of Salmon DNA for Your Skin
Stimulates Collagen & Elastin
Polynucleotides activate fibroblasts, the cells that make collagen and elastin—improving skin firmness, elasticity, and bounce.
Boosts Hydration
These molecules bind moisture like hyaluronic acid but go deeper, plumping the skin and improving overall glow.
Reduces Fine Lines & Wrinkles
By regenerating tissue and boosting collagen, salmon DNA helps smooth out wrinkles and soften fine lines over time.
Improves Skin Texture & Tone
It speeds up cell turnover, helping to fade pigmentation, smooth rough patches, and brighten dull or tired-looking skin.
Soothes Inflammation
Its anti-inflammatory properties make it perfect for sensitive skin and post-procedure recovery.
How We Use It at Injectual
At Injectual, London, we’ve taken polynucleotide treatments to the next level:
THE INJECTUAL Under-Eye Treatment
Tired eyes? Dark circles? We inject salmon DNA-based polynucleotides like Ameela or Plinest directly under the eye to reduce pigmentation, firm the skin, and give a natural, rested look.
Salmon Sperm Facial
Our signature uses a salmon (or trout) DNA compound to deeply hydrate, repair, and refresh your skin—ideal before an event or to boost skin health long-term. It’s not actually a facial, but rather a combination term for all treatments that use or incorporate polynucleotides.
Injectual Polynucleotide Cocktail
For advanced skin rejuvenation, we offer a personalised cocktail combining:
-
Polynucleotides for healing and hydration
-
Jalupro for amino acid-driven bio-revitalisation
-
Custom blend of ingredients
It’s skincare science—supercharged.
Is It Safe? Who Can Have It?
Yes—polynucleotide treatments are biocompatible, meaning they mimic your body’s own DNA. That makes them suitable for nearly all skin types, including sensitive, mature, or post-procedure skin.
These treatments are ideal for:
-
Anyone experiencing skin dullness, fine lines, or dehydration
-
Clients with dark under-eye circles or crepey texture
-
People who want regenerative results without adding volume or looking “done”
