A scientific foundation

SkinMedica’s history begins in 1999 with founders including dermatologist Dr. Richard Fitzpatrick. The company’s work focused on connecting an understanding of skin biology with the development of topical skincare.

Growth-factor research became a defining part of that identity. Its laboratory and collaboration with clinical researchers keep scientific study closely tied to product creation.

A collection built over time

The brand’s formulas extend from its TNS serums to cleansers, moisturizers and targeted care. These different products reflect an ongoing interest in translating research into practical skincare.

SkinMedica’s story is therefore one of sustained investigation. Its professional background supplies the perspective, while the daily routine is where the collection is experienced.
