According to Haute Living, this procedure does not inject salmon sperm directly into the skin but only uses its DNA that contains polydeoxyribonucleotides (PDRNs).
Since this is 96.5 percent similar to the human DNA, it claims to boost collagen production by repairing the tissues, as well as help in alleviating inflammation & hyperpigmentation.
Regarding how it works, the DNA is injected directly into the deeper layer of the skin or the dermis through a specialized gun or micro-injections.
