Salmon DNA Microneedling Essendon
Salmon DNA microneedling pairs classic microneedling with PDRN, a polynucleotide serum derived from salmon DNA that supports your skin's own repair process. The combination is popular in Korean clinics for one reason: skin tends to heal faster and look plumper and more hydrated than with needling alone. We were among the first in the Essendon area to offer it. From $499.

What PDRN actually does
PDRN is a regenerative ingredient that helps skin cells repair and hold on to moisture. Delivered through the micro-channels that needling creates, it goes to work where it is needed, so alongside the collagen boost of microneedling you get faster recovery, deep hydration and a plumper, more radiant finish. It is a favourite for dull, tired or dehydrated skin that needs a reset.
What it helps with, and how it compares
It suits fine lines, dullness, uneven texture and skin that has lost its bounce. Compared with standard microneedling, the PDRN step adds a regenerative, deeply hydrating boost, so recovery is quicker and the glow is stronger. Our side-by-side guide walks through which one suits you.
What to expect, and sessions
We numb the skin first, so most people find it very manageable. Afterwards your skin will be pink and warm, like mild sunburn, and tends to settle faster than with standard needling thanks to the PDRN. Visible results often show after one session, and a course of three to four spaced four to six weeks apart gives the best result. Skip makeup and the gym for 24 hours and leave active skincare off for a few days.
