Our mission is to empower you
By discovering your Skin Microbiome Type™, we can provide true personalization when it comes to skincare and, even, prescriptions.
Using cutting-edge whole genome sequencing, we can enable you to understand your skin on a microbial level, which correlates to skin health, age, and balance.
We know what it's like to try a bunch of products only to find out that they aren't right for us. We're here to change that paradigm. We believe you are unique, and, therefore, your skin health regimen should be, too. With Parallel, our mission is to empower you to achieve your highest skin goals and dare to be your best self.
