The Science — The Anatomy of the Formula

Everything, written into one strand.

Every KERACELL formula is read like a sequence — peptides, a stem cell–derived conditioned media, and a botanical complex so deep it barely fits the label. Follow the strand to see what a single drop is made of.

MHCsc™ Technology

One molecule of difference. A world of it.

Every KERACELL™ formula begins with MHCsc™ — conditioned media designed to capture the proteins, peptides, and growth factors human cells naturally secrete.

Cultured from multiple cell-source types, it delivers a broader, more complete protein profile than any single source.

Stem cell–derived, never stem cells. There is no human DNA whatsoever in the products — the cells are filtered, leaving only the purified and concentrated extract.

Six things a drop is made of.

01 — 06
Peptide

Acetyl Hexapeptide-1

A signal peptide that helps relax the look of expression lines — the messenger note in the formula.

INCI · Acetyl Hexapeptide-1
MHCsc™ Technology

Conditioned Media

Human stromal cell–derived conditioned media: the secretome of growth factors and proteins at the heart of every KERACELL formula.

INCI · Human Stromal Cell Derived Conditioned Media
Botanical Complex

30+ Cold-Pressed Oils

A rare density of seed and fruit oils — jojoba, argan, sea buckthorn, baobab, cloudberry, açaí — layered for repair, glow and slip.

Face · Hair · Body beauty oil
Antioxidants

Vitamin C · E · CoQ10

Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Tocopherol and Ubiquinone — the stabilising, illuminating trio that guards the complex.

INCI · Ascorbate · Tocopherol · Ubiquinone
Formulation

100% Vegan

Plant-derived throughout, formulated without animal ingredients.

The Evidence

Proven, not promised.

Protein identification — Stanford Proteomics Core
540+ proteins

Secreted proteins, peptides and growth factors identified by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry, performed at the Stanford University Proteomics Core Facility. Media in this category typically cite 150 to 200.

Clinical study
n = 40 women, 35–60

Placebo-controlled and split-face, twice daily for 30 days — MHCsc™ at 10% and at 25% against an identical placebo base.

Safety signal
p53 up

Tumor-suppressor expression up, tumor-promoter genes down — growth-controlling, not uncontrolled.

“Stem cell–derived, never stem cells — pure secretome science.”
