A burn surgeon watched his patients heal too slowly. Got frustrated enough to invent a skincare line from scratch. That’s the whole origin story — no marketing fluff, just a guy who was tired of watching skin fail.
He wanted something that would actually signal cells to *move* toward a wound, not just sit there moisturizing. So he built it. The first bottle went straight to post-op patients.

Neogenesis Recovery Serum. $185 for 30ml. It claims to speed up your skin’s natural repair cycle by giving it the same signal your body uses when you get a cut. I bought it because I was tired of peels and lasers leaving me red for a week.
EGF complex
Not plant-based. Human-identical growth factors. That matters — your skin recognizes them instantly.
Copper tripeptide
The only peptide that actually makes wounds close faster. Most serums use it as a flex. This one uses it at clinical levels.
Delivery system
Liposomal encapsulation. Boring name, huge deal — it shoves the good stuff past your barrier so it doesn’t just sit on top.

Four ingredients that matter. The rest is just fluid to carry them. No fragrance, no essential oils, no bullshit. It smells like nothing — which is the point.
- EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor): Tells your cells to divide faster. Literally makes new skin.
- Copper Tripeptide: Stabilizes collagen and pulls water into the wound site. Anti-scarring.
- Tranexamic Acid: Stops the redness from turning into permanent pigment. Underrated in this formula.
- Hyaluronic Acid: Not the hero here. Just the taxi driver — gets everything else where it needs to go.

It’s a thin, watery liquid. Dries in maybe 8 seconds. No stickiness, no film. You’ll think it’s not doing anything because it disappears so fast. That’s the trick — it’s designed to absorb, not sit pretty.
Week two, I nicked myself shaving. Put this on instead of a bandage. The cut was flat and pink by day three instead of scabby and angry. That’s when I stopped being skeptical.

My post-procedure redness dropped from 5 days to 2. Pores look smaller because the skin around them is actually healthy now. Didn’t fix my fine lines — that’s not what this is for.

**Section 6**
This is the only serum I’d keep if my bathroom caught fire and I had to grab one bottle. It doesn’t do everything — but what it does, nothing else does better.
