Understand Your Skin.
Science-backed guidance to help you understand what your skin is signalling — and follow a calm, clinical pathway toward visible improvement with Salmon DNA (PDRN) skincare.
The Barrier Repair Protocol
The Barrier Repair Protocol is a structured, minimal routine designed to restore skin comfort, resilience, and tolerance when the skin barrier has been disrupted.
Best for: dryness, tightness, stinging, redness, post-procedure recovery, or over-exfoliation.
When to use this protocol
Barrier disruption
Sudden sensitivity, flaking, or reduced tolerance.
Post-procedure
After peels, lasers, or microneedling (as appropriate).
Over-exfoliation
If acids/scrubs have left skin reactive.
The Protocol
Step 1 — Cleanse gently
Non-stripping cleansing to reduce triggers.
Step 2 — Support regeneration
Use Salmon DNA (PDRN) skincare to support renewal signalling.
Step 3 — Restore & protect
Seal hydration and support barrier stability.
What to avoid during recovery
- Strong exfoliants (AHAs/BHAs/scrubs)
- Retinoids (temporarily)
- Fragrance-heavy or alcohol-forward products
- Over-cleansing
Expected timeline
- Days 1–7: improved comfort and reduced reactivity
- Weeks 2–4: more stable hydration and resilience
- Weeks 4+: improved tolerance and smoother texture
