Salmon sperm no clue, microneedling is kinda exactly what it says, theres a bunch of super tiny needles on a machine or roller that stab into your skin (usually your face). The injury promotes skin rejuvenation bc its not enough to cause actual visible injury but its enough that your body thinks the tissue needs to be repaired

The salmon sperm (I’ve heard) is supposed to make your skin look good.

Btw, #1 explain what microneedling is very well. I just wanted to add, the other use often associated with microneedling is for men! It is also used by men. Men use it because rolling it on their face creates, the tiny cuts, and as those heal, it stimulates hair follicles and beard growth.

It’s believed that salmon sperm can make the skin more youthful, but it really only got popular because Kim Kardashian posted about it

To be fair a lot of beauty trends is people just using random specialized treatments they dont actually need, microneedling is most recommended for uneven skin tone, things like acne scarring, but everyone just does it cause its trendy, still cant say ive heard of pdrn tho

I have no idea if it’s scientifically supported. I watch some beauty content (people who typically criticized the overconsumption and such) and that’s how I found out about this.

Someone in my family got microneedling done. And they put salmon sperm on her face because it helps or something 💀that’s what it’s about. But the microneedling was done to remove or lessen acne scars

so the pdrn thing isnt actual physical salmon sperm, they basically extract dna fragments from it since apparently salmon have surprisingly similar dna to us. Basically makes it rlly easy to absorb and hydrate the skin and boost all that good stuff that makes u glowy and repair skin!
