While serving as a professor and research scientist at UC San Diego and UC Berkeley, Dr. Greg Maguire began studying skin-derived stem cells for their potential to support neural tissue repair. He found that it was the molecules these stem cells released (secretome) — not the cells themselves — that drove the effect. That discovery set him on a new path: translating this molecular secretome technology into skin care that could benefit people with a wide range of skin concerns.
While Dr. Maguire focused on advancing the science, he partnered with Steve McGee, who leads the business side, and together they founded NeoGenesis. Their goal was to bring this stem cell-derived technology to market — and it has since reached thousands of people who use this new category of skin care.
From skin complications following cancer treatment to everyday skin longevity, Dr. Maguire’s discovery has shifted skin care’s focus from cover-up beauty to functional, restorative beauty. Healthy skin is beautiful skin.
John Sanderson, whose medical license was revoked for sexual misconduct and repeated negligence, has sold his company, AnteAge, to a private equity company. Now that the PE company has taken over, their marketing people have invented a new word, “Biosome.” for what is called by scientists, a “liposome.”
How do we know the Private Equity guys who own AnteAge are using fake technology? Look at the staement from their website: “Currently the AnteAGE MD bottles do not mention the new Biosome ingredient. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we have chosen to utilize our existing inner packaging rather than generating waste unnecessarily. Please rest assured that your product does in fact have Biosomes included. Please reference the ingredient listing here. Reach out with questions or refer to anteage.com.”
Here’s the statment from their web:
How Do We Know They’re Faking It
If there were actually something new in the bottle, they would have to, by law, relable the product. In other words, because they have only changed their marketing hype, and not the product’s technology, they don’t need to make any changes to the bottle labeling – specifically the bottle’s listing of ingredients. The label and the ingredients remain the same and the only thing changing is what they call the product. There’s no validation in peer-reviewed literature or patent filings confirming a unique mechanism under the name “Biosome.” Rather, it’s just marketing hype, or as some would call it, BS.
So what’s in the bottle? Liposomes. Look at the ingredients on the bottles with the new, fake technology. The list includes “Phosphatidylcholine.” Guess what are made with Phosphatidylcholine. Answer – liposomes! So now AnteAge is calling liposome, you guessed it, Biosomes. This is Private Equity at work. Say anything, do anything, for profit.
Here’s the bottle saying “Biosomes”:
And here’s the bottle’s ingredient list for the “Serum”:
