Neocutis S.A. was founded in February 2003 as a spin-off from the Medical School of the University Hospital of Lausanne, Switzerland. It is a privately held specialty bio-pharmaceutical company focused on wound healing, dermatology and skin care. Neocutis' story began with a simple observation: prenatal surgery can be done so that the baby rarely presents scar formation after birth. What allows the enormous wound healing capacity of fetal skin? And, how can one use these capacities to cure different types of skin disorders? The “Laboratoire de Médecine Foetale” at the Medical School of the University Hospital of Lausanne has worked extensively with fetal cells since 1995 and resulted in several patent applications. Neocutis developed a technology platform based on an in-depth understanding of scarless wound healing. This platform has multiple applications in wound healing, dermatology and skin care. NEOCUTIS technology platform relies on the use of cultured fetal skin cells obtained from a cell bank for treating differing skin conditions. The dedicated cell bank was originally established for wound healing and burn treatments using a single biopsy of donated fetal skin following a one-time medical termination. The cultured cells can be used to produce skin constructs for wound healing or can be incorporated as cell lysate in a topical carrier for use in dermatology and skin care. To date, the cultured cells originating from this cell bank are used in research and product development in the following areas: • acute and chronic wound healing • eczema and psoriasis, and • vulvodynia, vulvar vestibulitis Having developed a topical preparation for different skin conditions, the use of this preparation for daily skin care became apparent. Today this same cell bank also provides a lasting supply of cells for producing Neocutis’ proprietary skin care ingredient Processed Skin Cell Proteins (PSP®). The first and original skin cream formulated with PSP®, the most complete protein blend of Human Growth Factors, Cytokines and Interleukins available to rejuvenate and soothe skin. |
