The NeoStrata
Company, located in Princeton, New Jersey,
develops and markets advanced dermatological
and skin care products through consumer
outlets and physicians' offices in the
United States, and Internationally through
physicians' offices, pharmacies and spas.
Our
beginnings . . .
In the early
1970's, Ruey Yu, PhD, OMD, a
dermatopharmacologist, and Eugene Van Scott,
MD, a dermatologist, made the groundbreaking
discovery that alpha hydroxyacids (AHAs) had
profound beneficial effects on human skin.
In 1974, these pioneers co-authored the
first published scientific paper on the
benefits of AHAs in dermatology and skin
care. Their subsequent research established
that AHAs are not only beneficial in the
treatment of dermatological conditions, such
as dry skin, b ut also effective in
stimulating prematurely aged or damaged skin
to rejuvenate itself. In 1988, the two
doctors formed The NeoStrata Company to
develop and market the AHA products they had
discovered and perfected.
And today
. . .
NeoStrata
continues to advance the field with
scientific innovations such as polyhydroxy
acids (PHAs) and lactobionic acids. With PHAs and bionics, NeoStrata
has reinvented skin careall-natural
compounds that are just as effective as AHAs
but do not cause irritation, even in
patients with sensitive skin.
The NeoStrata
Company holds over 100 patents on AHAs and
related technologies, and in addition to
utilizing these technologies in their own
product lines, the company also has a
thriving licensing business.
Proud of its
clinical heritage and driven by the passion
and vision of its internationally recognized
founders, The NeoStrata Company will
continue to be at the forefront of this
dynamic industry for years to come.
