Chris Rosgen, Founder of Lumanaire Skin, President of SkinStim.
Stem-Cell Engineered Electroceutical Serums for Anti-Aging/ Bioelectric Skin Regeneration
In life-science and facial aesthetics Chris Rosgen founded Lumanaire Skin in 2017, a disruptive startup focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary topical anti-aging serums and creams using advanced technology in stem cell engineering (stem-cell derived proteins), complex growth factors, along with clinically proven bio-active ingredients, peptides, anti-oxidants, minerals, and medicinal plant extracts delivered topically to the skin using a unique patented electroceutical carrier for the highest and most exceptional topical absorption rates.
In January of 2018, Rosgen was nominated by Executive Chairman and CEO Howard Leonhardt of Leonhardt ventures as President of SkinStimSkin-Stim.com, a medical device company currently seeking a 510-k FDA clearance in facial aesthetics for skin-regeneration using patented bio-electric signals to stimulate the body’s own natural ability to produce anti-aging effects to induce and increase more collagen production, elastin, stem-cell homing factors to regenerate skin. SkinStim has the first and only known patent pending bio-electric signal sequences designed for re-starting and increasing expression of tropoelastin, the body’s natural elasticity improvement protein that normally turns off during childhood.
SkinStim’s bench top and portable micro-current and TENS stimulators currently have FDA 510K market clearance for improved blood circulation, healing, mild pain relief and muscle tone improvement. The technology is painless, non-invasive and has mainly been utlized in sports medicine by professional athletic teams like the Los Angeles Angels and Anaheim Ducks safely for many years.
Lumanaire has established a joint-partnership with www.lventuresnestg.wpenginepowered.com SkinStim (skin-stim.com) to produce an advanced stem-cell engineered hydro-gel with a patented electroceutical carrier to create a state of electrophoresis (the movement of charged particles in a fluid or gel under the influence of an electric field) to enhance biolectric conductivity and delivery of a proprietary anti-aging formulation with stem-cell derived proteins.
Lumanaire’s advanced hydro-gel for use with each SkinStim treatment along with the take home serums and creams will be the razor-blades in a recurring revenue model and in partnership with SkinStim. This technological innovation in med-device will represent a lucrative fee for service model to serve as an alternative to facelifts, injectable Botox or Juvederm filler technology, without the fear of injections, invasive surgery and the painful, traumatic and lengthy recuperation process to heal.
Lumanaire and SkinStim intend to disrupt the world-wide $250 billion-dollar anti-aging market with Lumanaire developing a “Topical Botox,” like serum to rival Allergan’s SkinMedica physician dispensed facial aesthetics line and with SkinStim utilizing its patented bioelectric signals to disrupt Allergan’s Botox and Juvederm injectable technology by stimulating the bodies ability to rejuvenate skin by increasing the bodies own natural ability to produce more collagen, elastin, tropelastin and stem-cell homing factors with its patent-pending bio-electric technology.
In joint-partnership both companies will advance new standards in skincare to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to effectively change the cell structure of the skin with Lumanaire utilizing clinically proven dermatological ingredients and proprietary formulations to reverse the damaging effects of aging and with SkinStim proving out its technological innovation through the FDA 510-K approval process.
Lumanaire along with SkinStim have assembled an unrivaled team of scientists and doctors in medical device and facial aesthetics with years of experience and proven success to produce the highest bench-marked formulations in the market. In facial aesthetics our co-founders/scientific team members were instrumental in the formulation, development and launch of SkinMedica, a physician dispensed facial aesthetics skin care business, acquired in 2011 by Allergan for $350 million and Kathy Ireland’s skin-care product line, a corner stone of her $2 billion global branding empire.
The Global Anti-Aging Market was worth $250 billion in 2016 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 5.8%, to reach $331.41 billion by 2021. The future growth of the anti-aging market is observed to rely on the advancement and technological development with enhanced efficacy and safety of anti-aging products. Opportunity for new products, services or devices are high as the market consists of recognized players and their brands.(Orbis Research)
Lumanaire along with SkinStim has a combination of patented, patent-pending and advanced patentable formulations ready for commercialization. Both the startup ventures are in the process of capital formation and currently seeking their initial seed rounds of Angel/Venture capital investment from accredited investors.
Since 2015, Mr. Rosgen has served as an Advisory Board Member to Leonhardt’s Launchpads by Cal-X Stars Business Accelerator, Inc. an innovation and startup accelerator focused on organ regeneration and recovery breakthrough technologies with research labs in California and Utah. The accelerator is currently incubating 30 start-up companies in regenerative medicine using patented bio-electric signals, advanced stem-cell pumps, and the creation of the world’s first biologic pacemaker. Their startup CancerCell focuses on developing a 7-stage bio-electric therapy for eradicating cancer tumors including skin cancer.
