FAQ:
Q: What does Medicube PDRN Pink Collagen Glow Jelly Serum do?
A: It helps hydrate, brighten and plump the skin while supporting smoother texture, more even-looking tone and improved radiance.
Q: Is this a hydrating serum?
A: Yes. Glycerin, Panthenol, Glycereth-26 and seven forms of Hyaluronic Acid make hydration one of the formula’s main benefits.
Q: Does it contain PDRN?
A: The supplied INCI contains Sodium DNA, which is the standardized ingredient associated with the product’s PDRN positioning.
Q: Is the PDRN from salmon?
A: The supplied product information specifically markets the ingredient as Salmon DNA PDRN. However, the biological source of the ingredient named Sodium DNA cannot be independently determined from the INCI name alone.
Q: What does “99% high-purity Salmon DNA PDRN” mean?
A: This refers to the reported purity of the PDRN raw material, not to the finished serum containing 99% PDRN.
Q: What percentage of PDRN is in the serum?
A: The final concentration of Sodium DNA is not provided in the supplied INCI, so its finished-product percentage cannot be confirmed.
Q: Does PDRN regenerate skin cells?
A: This is a cosmetic serum, so Sodium DNA is better described as supporting hydration, radiance and elasticity-focused skincare rather than as regenerating tissue or medically repairing skin.
Q: Does it contain Collagen?
A: Yes. Collagen Water is the first ingredient in the supplied INCI.
Q: Does it contain 65% Collagen Water?
A: The supplied product information states 65% Collagen Water. Collagen Water is clearly the first ingredient, although the 65% figure is a manufacturer-supplied formulation claim rather than a percentage stated directly in the INCI.

A: No. Topical collagen primarily provides moisturizing and surface-conditioning benefits that can make skin appear temporarily smoother and plumper.

A: Niacinamide helps support the moisture barrier while improving the appearance of dullness, uneven-looking tone and overall skin clarity.
Q: Can it help dark spots?
A: Niacinamide and Ascorbic Acid can help uneven-looking pigmentation and post-blemish marks appear more even over time.
Q: Can it permanently remove pigmentation?
A: No. Pigmentation can recur, particularly with continued sun exposure, so consistent sunscreen remains important.
