What Lacto-PDRN™ Does For The Skin
Lacto-PDRN™ Under The Microscope
Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) is traditionally derived from salmon DNA. Lacto-PDRN™ is biotechnology-derived through the fermentation of Lactobacillus rhamnosus, a probiotic bacterium.
Fermentation breaks down the bacterium into short sodium DNA fragments, which form Lacto-PDRN™. These DNA fragments support the skin’s natural regeneration processes, which can help improve firmness and elasticity.
Despite the name, Lacto-PDRN™ has no connection to milk or dairy. The prefix “lacto” refers to the Lactobacillus strain used in the fermentation process.
