Salmon Sperm!!! The Secret Skin Booster

July 15, 2024

PDRN or Salmon DNA is composed of amino acids and has a long list of benefits. Salmon DNA is a powerful ingredient that has been used in Korean skincare for years and now makes its way to the U.S. In last week's episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian discusses her latest skincare routine with her mother Kris Jenner that included the use of salmon sperm. The essence of the discussion was wanting to maintain a more natural, youthful look. While the celebrity headlines often create the buzz around a new trend, the years of science behind this powerful ingredient is why PDO Max decided to formulate it in our latest brightening skin booster: LúmEnvy.

You heard it right: salmon sperm! But if the thought of promoting an unfavorable sounding ingredient as part of your facial rejuvenation package is off-putting, we like to refer to it as salmon DNA. DNA is composed of amino acids and has a long list of benefits.

Salmon DNA is a powerful ingredient that has been used in Korean skincare for years and now makes its way to the U.S. In last week’s episode of The KardashiansKim Kardashian discusses her latest skincare routine with her mother Kris Jenner that included the use of salmon sperm. The essence of the discussion was wanting to maintain a more natural, youthful look. While the celebrity headlines often create the buzz around a new trend, the years of science behind this powerful ingredient is why PDO Max decided to formulate it in our latest brightening skin booster: LúmEnvy.

LúmEnvy was created not to replace any “tried and true” aesthetic treatments, but to enhance them.“As an esthetician for over 30 years, I understand the importance of creating good skin quality as the foundation for getting even greater results with other aesthetic and injectable treatments. Think of skin boosters as the cherry on top for maintaining skin integrity,” says PDO Max Founder and CEO, Giovanna McCarthy.

Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) consists of DNA fragments derived from the sperm cells of salmon. According to certain studies, spermatozoa are the most suitable source for the extraction of highly purified DNA without the risk of impurities. The DNA from salmon, in particular, has very low levels of proteins, peptides, and other contaminants compared to other DNA sources. And as a form of polynucleotide, have been known to improve tissue regeneration. PDRN significantly inhibits melanin synthesis and is a hypopigmentation agent that plays an important role in skin lightening. It is effective for sun damaged skin and photo aging, and many other inflammation driven skin issues. PDRN isn’t the only star player in the LúmEnvy ingredient lineup. It incorporates: Glutathione, Niacinamide, HA, and Vitamin C.

The synergy of all five ingredients restores brightness, revitalizes the skin, and promotes overall skin health. Use LúmEnvy in combination with all your favorite injectable and laser treatments to boost results and expedite recovery.

We’ve launched this a couple of months ago already, and Hula has been a keynote speaker (the 2024 Aesthetic Show in Las Vegas) explaining the benefits of this amazing skin booster technology.

A sculpted, youthful face doesn’t always require surgery. Thanks to advanced aesthetic technology, non-surgical facial contouring has become one of the most sought-after treatments at Uplifted Aesthetics in Redondo Beach. These procedures restore lift, shape, and definition — all with little to no downtime. What Is Non-Surgical Facial Contouring? Non-surgical contouring combines injectable treatments and collagen-stimulating procedures to lift, define, and rejuvenate the face without incisions or anesthesia. It’s ideal for those who want natural results and gradual improvement over time. PDO Threads: Lift and Tighten Naturally PDO thread lifts are a cornerstone of modern contouring. These dissolvable sutures are placed under the skin to lift sagging tissue and stimulate collagen production. The result? A firmer, more defined jawline and cheek area that continues improving for months after treatment. Dermal Fillers for Structure and Balance Dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid add volume where it’s needed most — restoring cheekbones, softening smile lines, or defining the chin and jawline. At Uplifted Aesthetics, every filler plan is customized to preserve balance and facial harmony, creating results that look refreshed, not “filled.” Sculptra for Long-Term Collagen Stimulation Sculptra works differently than traditional fillers. Rather than providing instant volume, it rebuilds collagen over time for subtle, lasting improvement in facial structure and skin quality. Combined with threads or fillers, it helps create long-term rejuvenation that looks completely natural. Wrinkle Relaxers for Refinement A non-surgical facelift in Redondo Beach often includes wrinkle relaxers like Botox or Dysport to soften lines around the forehead, between the brows, and eyes — completing the refreshed, lifted look. Why Choose Uplifted Aesthetics Led by Hula Castellon, NP, a national PDO thread trainer, Uplifted Aesthetics brings unmatched skill and artistry to every contouring plan. Treatments are fully customized to enhance your natural features while maintaining your unique expressions and facial anatomy. The Redondo Beach Difference In a city known for its active, coastal lifestyle, patients want results that look effortless — not overdone.
