Ever heard of the salmon sperm facial? If you follow former Friends star Jennifer Aniston online, you’re probably thinking “yes”. Aniston revealed that she had tried the unconventional treatment in a 2023 interview with The Wall Street Journal, and she has also praised peptide therapy for helping to keep her skin looking youthful and healthy. But Aniston isn’t the only major star to try the salmon sperm facial. Kim Kardashian also announced that she’d had the treatment on an episode of The Kardashians. Many of their fans have no doubt been inspired to try the treatment for themselves, but what does the salmon sperm facial involve? And what benefits does it offer? We’ll explore this innovative treatment in detail below. What is the Salmon Sperm Facial?The salmon sperm facial is a revolutionary facial treatment and, frankly, one of the most unusual. But if you’re worried about having actual salmon sperm injected into your body, don’t be. The treatment only uses polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) — molecules extracted from the sperm DNA of salmon. These encourage healing and cell regeneration. The salmon sperm extract is injected into specific areas of the skin (such as in the cheeks or around the eyes) to address certain issues, such as wrinkles and sagging skin. The process will be explained to you in detail during your pre-treatment consultation. You will also have a chance to ask any questions you may have and set your mind at ease. What are the Benefits of the Salmon Sperm Facial?One study found that skin elasticity, water content, and smoothness all improved across a 12-week test period. Let’s take a closer look at how that can fight signs of aging and make skin appear younger, as well as the treatment’s other benefits. Improve Skin ElasticitySkin loses its elasticity with age due to the breakdown of elastin, the protein that enables the skin to maintain and retain its shape. That’s why skin starts to sag and become looser as we grow older. But improving skin elasticity will make your skin look and feel younger. Enhance Skin HydrationDehydrated skin can cause wrinkles and fine lines to become more prominent. Improving water content will hydrate the skin, making wrinkles and fine lines less visible. It can also combat other dermatological issues, such as dry, flaking, itchy skin. Give Skin a Smoother TextureSkin texture tends to become rougher with age, turning thinner and less smooth than younger skin. That’s caused by the natural decrease in collagen, elastin, and oil production. As the study revealed that participants’ skin lost some of its roughness after application of the salmon sperm, the facial treatment may lead to smoother skin with a younger appearance. Encourage Skin HealingThe salmon sperm facial stimulates the body’s natural healing process to repair damaged skin cells, sun damage, and scars caused by acne. That can leave skin looking and feeling smoother. It also helps promote a healthier complexion and glow. Increase Collagen ProductionCollagen is a crucial protein that gives the skin its structure and strength. But as with elastin, collagen production decreases as we approach older age. That contributes to sagging, looser skin in multiple areas of the body. However, the loss of collagen is particularly noticeable on the face and neck. Some of the most common signs include a less-defined jawline, loose skin on the neck, and sagging cheeks. The salmon sperm facial treatment can stimulate collagen production and cultivate plumper skin. A Fast and Simple TreatmentThe salmon sperm facial treatment takes around 15 to 20 minutes. As the facial is such a quick treatment, you can fit it into your day conveniently. A local anesthetic is applied to the injection sites before the treatment to minimize discomfort. That can give you much-needed peace of mind if you’re not a fan of needles. Start to See Results SoonResults of the salmon sperm facial can start to manifest as soon as two weeks after the treatment. The full results should be visible within three or four months. However, the timeline for noticeable results can vary significantly. Avoid Lengthy DowntimeExtended downtime may be one of the many reasons why people feel reluctant to try invasive anti-aging surgery. Fortunately, injectable treatments (such as the salmon sperm facial) incur little downtime and make less of an impact on your life. However, this treatment typically creates tiny blebs (blister-like protrusions) in treated areas. These should vanish within a few days, but keep this side effect in mind before you try the salmon sperm facial for yourself.
