DongKoo Bio&Pharma, the market leader in South Korea’s dermatological prescription drugs, is joining forces with innovative biotech startup Supernova Bio and filler platform technology firm Areum Medics to launch a groundbreaking strategy aimed at revolutionizing the aesthetic market.
On Tuesday, DongKoo Bio&Pharma announced the signing of a tripartite memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Supernova Bio, a medical nanoparticle specialist, and Areum Medics. The collaboration aims to develop next-generation aesthetic products that integrate fat dissolution, filling, and regeneration.
This partnership introduces a novel Filling and Removing Unevenness approach to the aesthetic market, which has traditionally focused solely on volume enhancement.
As the industry leader in dermatological prescriptions, DongKoo Bio&Pharma brings to the table an extensive network and unparalleled expertise. The company plans to offer clients enhanced aesthetic results through an advanced Unevenness solution, which precisely removes excess fat while strategically filling targeted areas.
Supernova Bio contributes its proprietary technology for non-invasive, targeted fat removal using nanoparticles. This innovative approach promises less discomfort than traditional fat-dissolving injections, delivers more precise results, and allows real-time ultrasound monitoring of the fat breakdown process, significantly improving procedural outcomes.
Areum Medics, in which DongKoo Bio&Pharma has recently acquired a majority stake, will incorporate its Miracle Method into the partnership. This cutting-edge technology, featuring high-elasticity and high-cohesiveness hyaluronic acid fillers, will be combined with Supernova Bio’s fat-dissolving technique to create a Total Contouring product line for intricate facial sculpting.
Under the MOU, the three companies will progressively pursue joint research on nanoparticle-based cosmetic materials, collaborative development of next-generation aesthetic products, and strategies for global market expansion.
A spokesperson for Supernova Bio stated that its vision is to redefine beauty standards by leveraging nanotechnology to precisely sculpt and enhance, moving beyond the conventional approach of merely filling deficiencies. By combining the innovations with DongKoo Bio&Pharma’s market-leading commercialization capabilities, it aims to set new benchmarks in the global aesthetic industry.
