YOUR SKIN 2.0

Upgrade your face with PATTI PAO, founder of Restorsea. 

Patti Pao

JOIN PATTI'S DISCUSSION ABOUT THE INTERSECTION OF SCIENCE AND BEAUTY

Funny story: While touring a salmon hatchery in Norway, lifelong science geek Pao noticed the workers’ hands appeared unusually youthful. The reason? An enzyme released during the salmon hatching process cleaved away dead skin cells leaving living cells undisturbed. Realizing the potential beauty benefits, Pao obtained exclusive rights to the miracle enzyme and founded Restoresea — the only medical-grade skincare line in the world. It’s natural. It’s science. And it works.
