Far from being just a celebrity trend, Salmon DNA therapy is now available in New Zealand and gaining popularity fast. The treatment uses DNA extracted and purified from salmon sperm, refined into highly active molecules known as polynucleotides. These polynucleotides represent a major leap forward in skin regeneration and repair, a technology first developed and perfected in South Korea nearly a decade ago.

Once introduced into the skin, these DNA fragments support cell renewal and healing across multiple layers. They help boost collagen and elastin production, improve hydration and smooth out fine lines, wrinkles and acne scarring. Deep within the dermis, the treatment activates fibroblast cells the key drivers of youthful, resilient skin, to enhance overall tone, texture and firmness.

Unlike fillers or surface-level rejuvenation procedures, Salmon DNA therapy works from within, triggering the body’s own healing mechanisms. Rather than simply filling or masking imperfections, it regenerates the skin at a cellular level restoring vitality, elasticity and natural radiance. Research shows that the polynucleotides in Salmon DNA not only help repair damaged tissue but also encourage surrounding skin to renew itself, leading to healthier, more balanced results.

• Boosts Collagen & Elastin: Encourages fibroblast activity to promote firm, elastic and youthful-looking skin.
• Refines Skin Texture: Reduces the look of fine lines, wrinkles and uneven tone.
• Deeply Hydrates: Enhances the skin’s moisture retention for a smoother, more supple feel.
• Improves Acne Scars: Promotes skin regeneration to minimise depressed or pitted scars.

Most clients notice only mild redness immediately after treatment, caused by the micro-needling process that delivers the serum just beneath the skin’s surface. This typically fades within 12–24 hours as the serum is absorbed. Because the DNA fragments are biocompatible and closely resemble human DNA, the risk of adverse reactions is minimal even for those with fish or salmon allergies.
