Acorn developed THE WORLD’S FIRST STEM CELL PLATFORM DESIGNED TO COLLECT, PRESERVE, AND ENHANCE THE POTENTIAL OF HAIR FOLLICLE STEM CELLS FOR REGENERATIVE TREATMENTS today and tomorrow.

We’re at the Beginning of an Anti-Aging Revolution

A hundred years ago, medicine focused on treating symptoms. Today, we’re shifting toward regenerative solutions that restore and heal at the cellular level.

Acorn is at the forefront of this movement—helping people preserve their youngest, most potent cells for use in groundbreaking treatments.
