In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta sits down with Tony J. Abboud, Chief Commercial Officer of Core Biogenesis, for an eye-opening conversation on the cutting-edge science behind bioidentical proteins in skincare. Tony brings a biotech insider’s perspective to the world of beauty, revealing how plant-based protein technology is unlocking a new era of truly effective, science-backed formulations.
Core Biogenesis is tackling a long-standing challenge in skincare: the instability and inefficiency of traditional proteins and peptides. Tony breaks down how their team uses camelina sativa plants as natural bioreactors to produce high-purity, bioidentical growth factors like EGF and FGF—compounds that naturally support skin repair and collagen synthesis but decline with age. The innovation doesn’t stop there: Core Biogenesis’ breakthrough delivery system, oleosomes, stabilizes these proteins and enhances their penetration, leading to significantly better efficacy than traditional formats.
This isn’t just theoretical science—Tony explains how Core Biogenesis’ oleosome-bound EGF retained 93% activity under stress conditions, compared to just 8% with standard EGF. With performance like this, consumers could see visible results in just 14 to 30 days. It’s a game-changing advancement for skincare brands and users alike.
Whether you're a skincare enthusiast, product formulator, or biotech curious, this episode offers a fascinating look into the future of skincare—one where biology, sustainability, and innovation converge. Tune in to discover how Core Biogenesis is rewriting the rules with plant-powered precision.
