Discover the secret behind the “Glass Skin” phenomenon. At Apollo House, we introduce New York to the gold standard of Korean regenerative aesthetics: PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide), often known as the “Salmon Sperm Facial.” Under the guidance of a board-certified cardiologist, we utilize the premium Rejuran® platform to heal, thicken, and illuminate your skin at the cellular level, delivering a translucent, poreless finish that makeup cannot mimic.
Why Choose Apollo House for PDRN Treatments
While many spas offer topical “salmon DNA” creams, our physician-led team performs the clinical-grade Rejuran® Healer injections: a precise medical procedure that delivers polynucleotides directly into the dermis where true regeneration occurs.
We believe in Integrating with Longevity. We view PDRN not just as a cosmetic booster, but as a barrier-repair therapy. By strengthening the skin’s biological shield, we protect against inflammation and environmental aging. Our commitment to Natural, Personalized Results ensures that your treatment is tailored to your unique skin architecture, whether you are treating deep acne scars or simply chasing that elusive, hyper-reflective “Glass Skin” glow.
About PDRN Salmon Sperm Treatment: What You Need to Know
What is PDRN (Rejuran®)?
PDRN stands for Polydeoxyribonucleotide. It is a highly purified DNA fragment derived from salmon germ cells (salmon sperm). While this may sound unconventional, salmon DNA is 95% compatible with human DNA, making it incredibly safe and biocompatible.
When injected or infused into the skin, these DNA fragments act as a “bio-stimulator.” They activate the adenosine A2A receptor, which triggers a powerful healing cascade. Unlike Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers that simply add volume physically, PDRN biologically instructs your cells to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and synthesize new collagen and elastin.
What PDRN Treats
Rejuran is unique because it treats skin quality rather than just wrinkles or volume loss. It is the go-to solution for:
- “Glass Skin” Texture: Creates a smooth, translucent, and hydrated complexion.
- Thin & Crepey Skin: Thickens the dermis, making it ideal for the neck and under-eyes.
- Acne Scarring: The Rejuran S formulation is specifically designed to break down scar tissue and fill pitted scars.
- Dark Circles: Improves microcirculation and skin thickness under the eyes.
- Compromised Barrier: Heals redness, rosacea, and sensitive skin that cannot tolerate aggressive lasers.
Expected Results & Timeline
PDRN is a progressive therapy, it builds skin health over time.
- Immediate: You may feel hydration, but the real magic happens as cells regenerate.
- 2-4 Weeks: Skin becomes smoother, oil production balances, and pores appear smaller.
- Peak Results: Best seen after a series of 3-4 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart.
- Longevity: Once the skin is repaired, results are long-lasting (6-12 months) with maintenance.
Whether you seek aesthetic refinement or deep cellular recovery, our evidence-based protocols are designed to help you live vibrantly at every age.
The Apollo House PDRN Experience
We have elevated this K-Beauty staple into a comprehensive medical protocol.
Pillar 1: Medical Precision
The effectiveness of Rejuran depends entirely on the depth of placement. Our providers use a specific micro-injection technique (often called “blebbing”) to deposit tiny droplets of PDRN into the papillary dermis. Because we are physician-led, we can also offer advanced numbing blocks to ensure this meticulous process is comfortable.
Pillar 2: Holistic Integration
We often combine PDRN with other modalities to supercharge results.
- The “Glass Skin” Protocol: We pair Rejuran injections with Micro-Botox to shrink pores and freeze oil production simultaneously.
- Laser Recovery: We use PDRN topically after CO2 Laser or Morpheus8 treatments to accelerate wound healing and reduce downtime by days.
Pillar 3: Exclusive, Personalized Care
As a Founding Member, you gain access to our curated menu of PDRN formulations. We don’t use a “one-size-fits-all” vial. We utilize Rejuran I for the delicate eye area (to avoid lumps), Rejuran S for deep scars, and Rejuran Healer for full-face rejuvenation. Your protocol is bespoke.
Pillar 4: Results with Purpose
We embrace PDRN because it aligns with our philosophy of “Results with Purpose.” This isn’t about covering up flaws; it’s about biological repair. By increasing skin density and elasticity, we are literally making your skin younger and stronger, not just making it look that way.
Is PDRN Right for You?
This treatment is ideal for the educated beauty enthusiast who values skin health over quick fixes.
- The Acne Scar Warrior: If you have rolling or boxcar scars that haven’t responded to lasers.
- The Sensitive Skin Client: If you have rosacea or thin skin and cannot tolerate heat-based devices.
- The “No-Filler” Client: If you want to look younger but are terrified of looking “puffy” or “overfilled.”
- The K-Beauty Devotee: If you crave that wet, reflective “glass skin” look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is it better to get PDRN at a physician-led clinic like Apollo House?
PDRN injections require multiple superficial needle sticks. In a non-medical setting, the risk of bruising, infection, or improper depth (wasting the product) is higher. Dr. Ghalchi’s oversight ensures sterile technique, optimal pain management, and the use of authentic, FDA-compliant products.
Who performs the treatment?
Your treatment is performed by our licensed aesthetic providers or nurses, who have been specifically trained in the Korean micro-injection techniques required for Rejuran.
Does it hurt?
Rejuran is known to be “spicy” during injection. However, at Apollo House, we use a potent compounded numbing cream and can offer Pro-Nox (laughing gas) or dental blocks to make the experience manageable and stress-free.
What are the “bumps” I hear about?
Because we inject the product very superficially (right under the skin surface), you will likely have tiny raised bumps (looking like mosquito bites) immediately after treatment. This is normal and desired: it means the product is in the right place. These bumps typically flatten and disappear within 24-48 hours.
Is this treatment vegan?
No. PDRN is derived from salmon DNA. It is, however, highly purified and generally safe for those with fish allergies (though we will conduct a patch test or medical review to be sure).
How much does PDRN/Rejuran cost in NYC?
Pricing depends on the specific product used (Healer vs. Eye) and the number of syringes. Generally, treatments range from $800 – $1,200 per session. Founding Members enjoy exclusive pricing on packages.
Can I combine this with Microneedling?
Yes, we offer the Rejuran “Glass Skin” Facial, where we use microneedling to infuse the PDRN into the skin. This is less invasive than injections and great for general texture, though injections are superior for deep repair.
