  • How to Check a PDRN Product Label in the UK

    Read the ingredient list, not the front of the pack. Look for Sodium DNA or Hydrolyzed DNA, see whether it sits before or after the preservatives, check for a UK responsible person, a batch number and a date, and ask what any ppm claim actually measures.

  • The INKEY List PDRN Serum Review: Vegan PDRN and the 2% Claim

    A fragrance-free, vegan serum using plant DNA from Artemisia capillaris, not salmon. The brand advertises 20,000 ppm (2%), yet its ingredient list puts Hydrolyzed DNA last, and the supporting studies were run by the ingredient supplier.

  • Medik8 vs The INKEY List vs Byoma: UK PDRN Serums Compared

    The three non-Korean PDRN serums UK shoppers ask about most all use vegan, plant-type PDRN, not salmon. Only The INKEY List states an amount, and none has independent published trials of the finished serum.

  • PDRN Before and After: Realistic Results, Timelines and Photos

    Realistic PDRN before-and-after results are subtle. Injection studies measured improvements in fine lines and texture 8 to 12 weeks after a course of sessions, and some gains faded by six months. Topical PDRN has far less evidence, and most of a serum's early glow is hydration.

  • PDRN vs PRP: Which Skin Treatment Is Better?

    No trials have compared PDRN and PRP head to head, so neither has been proven better. PRP uses growth factors from your own blood and has evidence for skin thickness and elasticity. PDRN, often sold as polynucleotides, uses purified salmon DNA and has evidence for skin quality and scars. PDRN products are more consistent; PRP varies with preparation and your own blood.

  • PDRN vs Hyaluronic Acid: Which Should You Choose?

    PDRN and hyaluronic acid do different jobs. Hyaluronic acid is a proven humectant that draws water into skin, and as an injection it adds hydration or volume. PDRN is thought to support repair and skin quality, mainly when injected. In skincare, both mainly hydrate. Many products combine them, and you do not have to choose.
