PDRN is a skincare ingredient derived from salmon DNA, and it’s the one behind the viral “salmon DNA facial,” sometimes called the “salmon sperm facial.” At Silver Mirror, you’ll find it in our Washington DC studios, where it’s part of the GLP-1 Volmira℠ Facial.
The PDRN serum is a DC exclusive. We offer the GLP-1 Volmira℠ Facial across all our studios in New York, DC, and Miami, but DC is the only market where it’s made with PDRN.
Here’s what PDRN is, why everyone’s talking about it, and how our DC facial puts it to work.
What Is the GLP-1 Volmira℠ Facial?
The GLP-1 Volmira℠ Facial is a 50-minute, non-invasive facial from Silver Mirror for skin that looks less full and less firm during GLP-1 weight loss. It combines a biostimulating treatment, nano-infusion, PureLift lifting, a cold biocellulose mask, and LED for firmer, plumper-looking, hydrated skin.
This service is available at all 10 of our studios across New York, DC, and Miami, with no needles, no injectables, and no downtime. The service itself is the same everywhere. The one regional difference is the ingredient used at the biostimulating step: New York and Miami use a biostimulating treatment, and DC uses a PDRN serum.
What Is PDRN?
PDRN is a skincare ingredient derived from salmon DNA, used in facials for its hydrating and conditioning properties. It’s known for leaving skin feeling soft, comfortable, and nourished.
It’s a cosmetic ingredient rather than a medical one, so it works on how your skin looks and feels rather than treating any condition.
Why Is It Trending?
PDRN went viral largely thanks to its origin story. The idea of a skincare ingredient derived from salmon DNA is attention-grabbing on its own, and the internet ran with it, which is how the nicknames “salmon DNA facial” and “salmon sperm facial” took off.
The names are catchy and a little cheeky, which is part of why they spread so fast across social media. Behind the viral headline, though, it’s simply a skincare ingredient being used in facials for its hydrating and conditioning role. The trend put a spotlight on it, and now plenty of people are curious where they can actually experience it.
How our DC Facial Uses PDRN
In our DC studios, the PDRN serum comes in at the biostimulating step of the GLP-1 Volmira℠ Facial, as one thoughtful part of the service rather than a standalone facial.
The application is gentle and precise: your esthetician applies the serum with gauze and works it in with a nano infuser, a no-puncture tip that helps it absorb. There’s no brush and no wands, and red LED can be included as part of the service.
