A New Approach to Skincare Built on Regenerative Science
In today’s skincare landscape, many consumers are looking beyond quick fixes and toward long-term skin health. Au79, founded by Charles Parks, was created to meet this shift. With a mission to make regenerative skincare accessible, trustworthy, and effective, the brand focuses on supporting the skin’s natural processes through carefully researched formulations and professional-grade technologies adapted for everyday use.
Au79’s guiding philosophy is captured in its tagline: “Restore, Revive, Renew.” Rather than replacing existing routines, the brand positions itself as a complementary system designed to work alongside professional treatments and daily care.
The Story Behind Au79
Au79’s origins are rooted in an unusual convergence of global relationships and scientific discovery. Founder Charles Parks spent years working in global health across Central America and Asia, where he built connections with medical professionals and researchers.
During work in Costa Rica and Nicaragua, Parks was introduced to regenerative treatments such as PRP and PRF. A physician’s suggestion to explore exosome technology led him to investigate emerging developments in cellular communication and skin science. At the same time, long-standing relationships in South Korea opened doors to the country’s advanced biotechnology and aesthetic research sector.
These experiences ultimately brought Parks to Korea, where he collaborated with scientists and manufacturers to develop formulations that would later become the foundation of Au79.

The Foundation of Au79Care: Absoro-Pep™
At the heart of Au79 is a discovery that ended up shaping the entire brand: Absoro-Pep™, a proprietary nano-gold peptide complex, and the reason the brand is named what it is. Au is gold on the periodic table and 79 is its atomic number.
Absoro-Pep™ is built from two elements working in tandem. The first being nano-gold, made up of gold particles so incredibly small, about 3,000 times smaller than a skin pore, that they can slip past the skin’s surface and act as a vehicle, carrying active ingredients deeper than they’d typically travel on their own. The second is a peptide chain made up of amino acids, four of which are the same ones the body naturally uses to build collagen. You can think of them as a message sent directly to the skin’s repair system, a signal that prompts the kind of cellular activity that keeps skin firm, resilient, and youthful. Together, the nano-gold delivers that message deeper, and the peptides make sure it’s one the skin actually understands. The complex also provides antioxidant protection, helping to neutralize the daily environmental stress that quietly accelerates aging over time.
When Au79’s founders encountered Absoro-Pep™ through their work alongside Korean bio-manufacturers, they recognized it as something worth building around. It now runs through nearly every product in the Au79 daily skincare line, functioning less like a single ingredient and more like the connective tissue of the entire collection, the thread that ties the brand’s regenerative philosophy together from the first step of a routine to the last.
Bridging the Gap Between Professional Treatments and Daily Care
One of the key challenges Au79 set out to address is the disconnect between in-clinic treatments and at-home skincare. Many patients receive professional procedures but are left uncertain about how to maintain or support results between visits.
Au79 developed a dual-pillar system designed to work together:
- Professional-grade regenerative treatments used in clinical or med-spa environments
- Daily skincare products formulated to complement and support those treatments over time
This ecosystem approach allows consumers to integrate advanced skincare technologies into everyday routines without needing to overhaul the products they already use.
Featured Products: Exosome Mist and Biocellulose Mask Trio
Among Au79’s most recognized offerings are the Exosome Mist and the Biocellulose Cell Therapy Mask Trio, both designed to provide targeted support for different skincare needs.
Exosome Mist: Daily Barrier and Hydration Support
The Exosome Mist is a lightweight, fast-absorbing facial spray designed for use multiple times throughout the day. Its formulation includes:
- Plant-derived exosomes
- Niacinamide and ectoin for barrier support
- Peptides and centella derivatives
- Rose water and allantoin for soothing hydration
- Absoro-Pep™ nano-gold peptides
Together, these ingredients are intended to help maintain hydration, support the skin barrier, and provide antioxidant protection in a format that can be applied over skincare or makeup.
Biocellulose Cell Therapy Masks: Weekly Intensive Care
Au79’s masks are produced using fourth-generation biocellulose, a material derived from natural coconut that conforms closely to the skin. Each mask contains a concentrated essence featuring cell-derived extracts, peptides, and other bioactive compounds commonly studied in regenerative skincare.
The line includes three variations designed for different concerns:
- NK Cell Mask for stressed or damaged-looking skin
- Stem Cell Mask designed to improve the appearance of firmness and brightness
- Treg Cell Mask created for sensitive or reactive skin
These masks are typically used one to two times per week or after professional treatments as part of a broader skincare routine.
Why Korean Biotechnology Plays a Central Role
South Korea is widely recognized as a global leader in skincare innovation, particularly in areas such as peptide research, advanced delivery systems, and biocellulose materials. Au79 works directly with Korean bio-manufacturers and laboratories, allowing the brand to incorporate emerging technologies while maintaining pharmaceutical-grade production standards.
This direct partnership model helps ensure consistency in formulation and allows Au79 to remain closely connected to ongoing developments in regenerative skincare science.
A Skincare Philosophy Focused on Long-Term Skin Health
Au79’s approach reflects a broader industry trend toward preventative care and maintaining skin resilience over time. By combining research-driven formulations, Korean biotechnology, and a system designed to bridge professional and daily skincare, the brand aims to provide a practical pathway for people who want to invest in their skin’s long-term health.
For consumers who prioritize thoughtful ingredients, consistent routines, and gradual visible improvements rather than quick fixes, Au79 represents a growing category of skincare focused on supporting the skin’s natural processes.
