Called ‘The Next Big Thing’ When Introduced, NEOVA Still Is 4 Decades Later
As an inventive discovery, scientists greeted it with wonder and excitement when it was introduced but to stay in front of scientific discovery – for decades -- is genius. To mastermind innovation and stay faithful to its core, its science, theories and principles is altogether awe-inspiring.
Lasting buzz, like NEOVA’s, is not about being a one-hit wonder, it’s about investing in research and inventing what actually works. And if the science behind our technologies -Copper Peptide Complex and DNA Repair Enzymes -- says anything, it’s proof that our founders’ skin intelligence was indeed ‘the next big thing’, changing forever the way skin damage must be managed: where the damage starts, not where it lands.
Unlike conventional skincare, which stays on the surface, NEOVA goes deep to the source of damage, teaching cells how to perform better and regenerate themselves from within, courtesy of our ‘leave-nothing-to-chance’ technologies. Each, with troops of messengers delivering high-priority instructions to skin cells, commanding them to renew, and function like they did in their prime.
First up: Game-Changing Copper Peptide Complex (GHK-Cu).
Scientifically acclaimed in 1980 by surgeons as a ‘miraculous wound healer’ for shrinking post-procedure recovery time by 50%. And when dermatologists wanted more, wanted formulas to deal with unintentional wounding, like photodamage, NEOVA scientists answered their call and optimized Copper Peptide Complex (GHK-Cu) for daily care.
As the leader in peptide technology, it’s not surprising GHK-Cu was engineered for uninterrupted absorption and stabilized for unrivaled potency and stamina – all for persistent, long-lasting availability. That discovery and its development was a milestone and has remained a testament to the power of combining biochemistry and dermatology in one.
In its most concentrated form as a NEOVA serum and a gel mask, GHK-Cu takes cell functioning to never- thought- possible levels. With its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions, the defense burden on cells is reduced and the path to detoxification is cleared, meaning cells can and will perform better. And when combined with hyaluronic acid, skin’s barrier is stronger and more resilient.
- A daily dose of POWER DEFENSE, the super Antioxidant Serum, will protect skin from free radical damage reducing oxidative stress and conserve both collagen and elastin reservoirs.
- An intermittent dose, like 2-3 times a week, of PURE COPPER MASK, the Hydrating and Recovery Gel, is going to deliver the intensive nourishing, sag-reducing pick-me-up skin needs all year round.
Next Up: Nobel Prize Winning DNA Repair Enzymes
Even before DNA Repair Science was awarded the 2015 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, NEOVA predicted it would have a profound effect on skincare, even stating it signaled the start of the end of skincare as the industry knew it. For one reason: the future of skincare was in training skin to repair itself – it’s where 3 DNA enzymes came in to move beyond surface-level fixes and into the future of regenerative skincare.
Instead of masking the signs of photoaging, the enzymes sweep in to locate the damage in the cells, remove it and, with astonishing precision, replace it before it can be passed down to the next DNA generation.
On their own, they know what to do and when to do it but not how to get where they are most needed: to the cells with damaged DNA. That is where the genius delivery system, the one that gets the enzymes deep into the skin, comes in.
The enzymes are embedded in liposomes (tiny multilayered ‘bubbles’) that are similar to the targeted cell’s membrane so that when they arrive at the damaged cell, the enzymes are immediately released and head straight for nucleus where they remain bound to the DNA. Something they can do because the liposomes are naturally compatible with human skin, making them a powerhouse for real, lasting results.
Backed by years of scientific research and clinical trials with breathtaking results, like reducing DNA damage caused by the sun by 45% in one hour and eliminating 90% of oxidative damage in 2 hours, any Similarity to a Miracle is Purely Scientific.
Evidence shows that a Twice Daily Dose of DNA TOTAL REPAIR decreases UV spots by 96%, localized discolorations (‘age’ spots) by 49%, size and intensity of lines by 56%, in 12 weeks.
All great statistics but there’s more: multiple studies, published in scientific journals, show that those reversals of sun-damage, reduced rates of AKs and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) * in as few as 3 months.
The compelling body of evidence showing the combination of an SPF product, an antioxidant blend and a DNA repair enzyme complex was able to address multiplicative damages. Together, the combination is superior to traditional sunscreens and can reverse and protect against the effects of UVR-induced damage at the molecular level, the visible level and, potentially, reduce the risk of non-melanoma skin cancers.
Here, there are 3 patented Broad Spectrum Sunscreens with DNA Repair Enzymes + Antioxidant Defense:
- SILC SHEER 2.0 Photo Finish Tint | Broad Spectrum SPF 40 | Water Resistant [80 Minutes] A micronized, physical sunscreen with DNA repair technology and the cosmetic benefit of a skin-perfecting sheer tint.
- EVERYDAY Facial Fluid | Broad Spectrum SPF 44 An elegant, lightweight moisturizing formula designed especially for daily photoprotection of the face, neck, décolletage and back of hands.
- ACTIVE Optimal Body Defense | BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 43 | Water Resistant [80 Minutes] Supreme protection and repair for the outdoor enthusiast.

The Latest ‘First’ Original NEOVA Technology: DNA CoFACTOR
Its brilliance is in its mindfulness of cause and effect, tackling repair and restitution of underlying source of photodamage in one commixture. NEOVA’s two gold standard systems -- liposomal DNA Repair Technology and Copper Peptide Complex are specifically engineered to carry correcting and repairing actives right to the site of the damage. Proven to be foundational for improvements at the cellular and upper levels of photoaged skin, the tech-enabled, CoFactor innovation and its products were like nothing else. So important, that in 2016, after poring through clinical data and decades of studies, the United States Patent Office issued protection for all DNA CoFactor formulas.
As stated in the patent, “DNA CoFactor products demonstrated the ability to treat sun-damaged skin with a multi-faceted and targeted approach to cellular aspects of damage caused by sunlight. For the first time, a brand demonstrated it could treat, prevent and repair sun-damaged skin with its novel compositions and methods”
-- United States Patent Office, May 10, 2016, Patent No 9,333,159 B2.
Working Together in Perfect Harmony
One, the copper peptide complex, supplies a copper-rich environment and support for the enzymes to function reducing the cellular load of oxidative stress; the other, the DNA repair enzymes act to correct the damage in the nucleus of the cells.
What we then have is inclusive prevention and repair, where is cellular environment is provoked to support the enzymes that fix DNA damage, promoting the overall regenerative processes that replace damaged cells with healthy new ones.
In a 12-week pilot study, twelve subjects were evaluated for differences in localized discolorations, UV spots, texture and wrinkles following topical application of specific products. Results, compared to baseline, showed a statistically significant reduction in all measurements in just 8 weeks, like a:
- 71% decrease in wrinkles
- 96% decrease in UV spots
- 49% decrease in in localized discolorations.
