Dry, tight skin that looks dull by mid-afternoon is one of the most common complaints we hear, especially through a UK winter of central heating, wind and rain. Add early fine lines, rough texture or the marks a breakout leaves behind, and many people find their moisturiser<\/mark><\/a> alone just isn’t keeping up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s where a PDRN serum<\/mark><\/a> comes in. PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide, often listed as Sodium DNA) has moved from clinic skin boosters into everyday skincare, and the PDRN Serum from Faces Pharmacy puts 1% Sodium DNA into a lightweight, hydrating base designed for twice-daily use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this review we cover what’s actually in the bottle, the benefits you can realistically expect, who it suits (and who should be careful), how to fit it into your AM and PM routine, what to pair it with, and a week-by-week results timeline. If you’re comparing options to find the best PDRN serum for your skin, this guide should help you decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      What Makes It Special<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      The technology.<\/strong> PDRN is a blend of DNA fragments, traditionally sourced from salmon, that became famous in Korean aesthetic clinics <\/mark><\/a>as an injectable skin booster<\/mark><\/a>. In topical form, Sodium DNA works on the skin’s surface as a conditioning, moisture-binding active<\/strong>, which is why a PDRN serum has become a popular at-home way to support the look of healthy, resilient skin between clinic visits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The hero ingredient.<\/strong> This formula contains Sodium DNA at a stated 1% concentration<\/strong>. Many PDRN products don’t disclose a percentage at all, so a clear figure makes it easier to know what you’re getting. It’s supported by Arginine, an amino acid that conditions the skin and gives the formula its peptide-style positioning, so it will appeal to anyone searching for a PDRN peptide serum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The brand.<\/strong> The serum is sold by Faces Pharmacy, the UK pharmacy behind the Faces platform used by aesthetic clinics and practitioners. Faces Pharmacy is based in Stafford and the platform operates as an MHRA licensed broker, so the serum sits alongside the professional skin boosters and aftercare that clinics already buy here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
