Jennifer Aniston‘s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! was memorable for several reasons. The actor set the record straight on some rumors about her and revealed which one of those speculations was true. These included her getting a salmon sperm facial, which she confessed was true. Although it isn’t FDA-approved, the facial has apparently given some celebrities effective results, as reported by Variety.
Jennifer Aniston reveals fish sperm facial on Jimmy Kimmel’s show
Jennifer Aniston got candid when she sat down with host Jimmy Kimmel to dispel some rumors. However, the actress didn’t deny getting a salmon sperm facial. Amidst laughter from the audience, Aniston went on to explain what motivated her to get it done in the first place.
She said, “But let me explain to you: It’s not like, how do you get sperm out of salmon? It was sort of unclear. I just took the woman’s word that’s that what it was, and I was like, ‘Sure!'” The actor further detailed the procedure, explaining how it involves microneedling to push the key ingredient — the salmon sperm. Aniston then cheekily asked the audience to judge the results for themselves. She asked, “Don’t I look like a salmon? Don’t I have beautiful salmon skin?”
Variety also reported how well-known dermatologists in Beverly Hills, California, have seen this beauty trend make its place among their A-list clients. Dr. Gabriel Chiu, founder of Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery, detailed more about the process to the outlet. He explained that the fish sperm facial involves the injection of Rejuran, a DNA of salmon milt, in microdroplets under the skin of the neck and face. Another key ingredient in the procedure is hyaluronic acid.
According to Dr. Chiu, it helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles and boosts skin hydration, among other benefits. Although the procedure isn’t FDA-approved, Dr. Chiu says he wouldn’t offer it to clients until the FDA declares it safe.
As per Allure, this trend originated in South Korea. However, the procedure’s cost may differ based on location, practice, and modality. The outlet reported that it can cost between $500 to $800 per treatment.
