Our Mission

A Game-Changer For
Thinning Hair. Aging Skin. Nutrition. Total Wellness.

Innovation has been stagnant in beauty and wellness for decades.
Across hair, skin, and body wellness, genuine innovation and discovery has been avoided in favor of less challenging programs to retest and reformulate legacy ingredients.

MOLECULAR DISCOVERY

REVELA IS A SCALABLE MOLECULAR DISCOVERY PLATFORM

We leverage our molecular discovery pipeline to drive molecule and biological modality development for the most pressing visible (and invisible) challenges of wellness.

MACHINE LEARNING & BIOENGINEERING

RAISING THE BAR FOR EXPECTATIONS IN CONSUMER HEALTH & WELLNESS

To achieve our mission, we use the same cutting-edge bioengineering and advanced AI techniques used to develop new medicines and cancer therapeutics and apply them to discover new molecules that directly target the issues impacting millions of people every day.

Product Development

Never settle for good enough. We don't.

It's 2024. We have supercomputers in our pockets and technologies to edit entire genomes, yet consumers are still forced to accept the same ingredients their grandparents had, and continue to experience the same underwhelming results.

The products using our breakthrough molecules demonstrate safe and superior clinical efficacy as compared to what's currently on the market. Rather than rebranding what is already available, we reinvent what just isn't cutting it for consumers.
