The two Korean serums of Peptolia: PDRN and silk peptides compared
In recent years PDRN and collagen have become two of the most-cited actives in Korean skincare. Peptolia offers them in two separate vials, each designed for a different need of mature skin.
What is PDRN
PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) is an active made of purified DNA fragments, small enough to cross the skin's surface barrier and act in depth. In the PDRN vial it works together with vitamin B12 to support radiance and the skin's natural renewal.
What is the silk peptide serum
The silk peptide serum relies instead on golden filaments of silk peptides which, once in contact with the skin, weave into a supporting protein micro-net, for a plumping and smoothing effect on face and neck.
They are not two versions of the same product: they answer two different needs of mature skin.
The key differences
- PDRN vial — focus on radiance and renewal, ideal for a dull, lacklustre complexion
- Silk peptide serum — focus on structure and firmness, ideal for loss of tone and sagging wrinkles
Can they be used together?
Yes: many customers alternate the two in their weekly routine, or use one in the morning and the other in the evening, for a combined action on radiance and firmness.
