PDRN / Sodium DNA

DNA-derived ingredient in K-beauty serums

PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) and Sodium DNA are DNA-derived ingredients, traditionally from salmon and now also from plants. Clinic injections and microneedling use different, sterile medical-grade material. A cosmetic serum or cream is not the same as an injection.

Good to know

Use only on intact skin. Don't use a cosmetic PDRN serum with rollers or needles — cosmetic grade is not sterile medical-grade material. Check the source (fish or plant) if you avoid animal-derived products.

What the research actually tested

Matched for PDRN, polydeoxyribonucleotide or Sodium DNA on the label — not for 'DNA' marketing words alone.

PLOS ONE — PDRN eye cream vs retinol, split-face

Published
Jul 2026
How used
Topical eye cream
Who
31 participants, randomized, double-blind
Tested
0.1% PDRN (a defined ~850 kDa material)
Compared with
0.1% retinol cream; no plain-cream arm
Measured
Eye-area skin over 28 days

Limits: Industry-affiliated; one specific material. Results don't transfer to other PDRN grades, sources or concentrations.

Peony-derived PDRN topical studies (PMC)

Published
Dec 2025
How used
Topical
Who
Small groups
Tested
Specific plant fraction / 1% cream
Compared with
Short barrier-challenge and elasticity tests
Measured
2-week barrier, 4-week elasticity

Limits: Run by the maker's employees; plant PDRN is a different material from salmon PDRN.

These studies used their own formulas and strengths. A stocked product naming the same ingredient is not proof of the same strength or result.
