Biostimulator skincare serums are entering the U.S. professional aesthetics market as VAIM partners with Cartessa Aesthetics to distribute JUVELOOK Skincare Serum. The topical formula combines poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) and hyaluronic acid, bringing biomaterial technology associated with aesthetic treatments into skincare designed to complement procedures such as RF microneedling and laser resurfacing.
JUVELOOK incorporates patented PDLLA technology featuring spherical particles with a porous internal structure, engineered for gradual biodegradation and tissue regeneration. The Korean brand has sold more than three million vials internationally and established distribution across over 60 countries. Its serum is now available exclusively through Cartessa to qualified U.S. aesthetic practices.
For Cartessa, the partnership broadens its offerings beyond aesthetic equipment, creating opportunities for additional product sales. Clinics can incorporate the serum into post-procedure skincare offerings, potentially strengthening patient relationships while expanding their treatment-related retail options.
