The 'glass skin' trend—poreless, luminous, deeply hydrated skin—has taken over skincare conversations across Dhaka's beauty scene. While good skincare products help, achieving true glass skin at a cellular level requires more than topical application. This is where PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) Therapy, popularly known as the Salmon DNA Skin Booster, comes in.
At Dr. Sadia's Advanced Aesthetic & Laser Clinic in Banani, this regenerative injectable treatment is administered to patients seeking genuine tissue-level skin repair rather than surface-only hydration that fades within hours.
What Makes PDRN Different
PDRN is a biologically active molecule extracted from salmon sperm DNA, sharing over 95% structural similarity with human DNA, which makes it highly biocompatible and unlikely to trigger adverse reactions. When injected into the dermis using fine micro-injection technique, PDRN molecules bind to adenosine A2A receptors in skin cells, kick-starting a repair cascade.
1. Cellular Repair: PDRN activates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin, accelerating tissue regeneration from within rather than just plumping the surface.
2. Deep Hydration: Unlike surface hyaluronic acid serums, PDRN improves the skin's own capacity to retain moisture, resulting in hydration that lasts weeks rather than hours.
3. Improved Elasticity & Texture: Regular sessions visibly reduce fine lines, improve skin firmness, minimize enlarged pores, and refine overall texture and tone.
4. Anti-Inflammatory Effect: PDRN also has a calming, anti-inflammatory action, which makes it useful for post-acne skin, sensitive skin, and even as adjunct therapy after laser treatments.
The Treatment Process
After a brief consultation and numbing cream application, PDRN is delivered using a fine needle or micro-cannula in a grid pattern across the treatment area—commonly the full face, under-eyes, or neck. Sessions take approximately 30 to 40 minutes.
Treatment Course & Results
A typical course involves 3 to 4 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, with visible improvement in skin radiance and bounce noticeable from the second session onward. Mild redness or small bumps at injection points settle within a day or two, and most patients experience little to no real downtime.
Maintaining Your Results
Once the initial course is complete, a maintenance session every 3 to 6 months helps sustain the improved skin quality, especially for patients regularly exposed to Dhaka's pollution and humidity.
